SECRET LIFE NO! (know & be known) RISK IT!

By
Industry Observer with pearlsforthesoul.com feedback-input specialist

You know those private thoughts everyone has? The ones where the cliche "a penny for your thoughts" refer too? How about when you ask someone "what do you think' & a flood of opinion; feelings & their thinking mixed with passion or the lack thereof comes out & now we have a growing dynamic that was once just a passing thought? All this is normal activity for mankind's current state of mind & affairs. What I am referring to is the secret judgments, withholding of truths & hidden agendas lying in wait to make a home in YOU

Are you living a shadow life? Then, you are not living

YOUR THOUGHT LIFE

How can you have two lives? Which one is the trusted source? Which one came first & which one is the one that leads, guides, nurtures & feeds our commonsense banks, intuitiveness, logic & reasoning? Thoughts, by rights, shouldn't exist

THINKING

Thoughts with legs forming (your think) are at odds with our spiritual liberty & freedoms. It also disdains your natural knowing that bypasses thought. Yes, we have learned to use thinking-thought for clarity, consideration & evaluation but,

HAS LIFE OF ITS OWN

In using the thinking process, it now gets a turn to use you too & it grows from being used when it does. Called sinking in thinking & drowning in dreams, think-thought has made a home in you, existing for its sake while using U fully

THE FUTURE OF ALL THINGS

In the earthly realms, where there are all the earthly delights & dynamics, they live along side of us but only while alive for when we die, they die becoming food for the worms. However, your spirit, the one God created, the YOU, goes on. Question:

WHY NOT BUILD UP YOUR SPIRIT

Why feed your secret life, your carnal self & selfishness which only really serves itself while tossing you a bone or two. Instead, feed the soul, which was here before thought, here now & beyond. It is the core of the origin of your life. 

THE CATERPILLAR-BUTTERFLY MAKES THE POINT

The "pillar" has its day & way & it should for it has an earthly existence this we know. But what of the unseen or next stage of life? It cannot process like a human but instead works off of deep commands & environment, nudges to do or not do. If the "pillar" goes rogue, doesn't obey the instinct to eat when told, to spin a cocoon & then sleep, the butterfly will not materialize. It dies when the pillar does

IF YOU STARVE YOUR SOUL

Perhaps you, yourself, will cause a lack of ability to transcend from earth to the beyond when you feed vanity within the self & neglect foods for the soul. Man does not live by bread alone is no myth. Starve the body, but feed the soul works

ENEMY of SECRET LIFE

Being transparent, open, honest with simplicity driving your humility destroys all withhold, secret thoughts & judgments & dark whisperings inviting you to doom. You want to know & be known & that takes light not darkness to succeed. 

WATCH FOR THIS

You harbor a belief that says: if they only knew me, or I don't deserve this, or they will get theirs, they will see what happens to them, then you have failed to make yourself known. Assumptions don't lead to understanding. You must risk taking a side when presented, risk ridicule or escalation but at least you are known & know

HOW SAD

To have lived life & not be known as to who you are? It doesn't matter so much as to your errors, mishaps or failings but instead, you go through it all, for better or for worse, & others knowing this, & drawing from it. Being real has advantages. How many people have you known but don't really know? Ask & answer this pondering

WHEN YOU STAY SHUT

You not only robbed yourself, but others too as we all have a cause & effect on each other, a type of influence or example that teaches without us knowing that it does. Don't rip off others or yourself. When you shut-up, you are shut-in. Don't do!

WORTHY NOTE: Be embarrassed, feel humiliation, the pain of error & mishap, the visiting of faux pas, & it will pass, you better for it. We all go through this. Go then!

UNWORTHINESS

Every single lifeform gets a turn at living no exceptions. Some are programmed & instructed for function. Mankind is required to participate i.e. have a part & do that part learning, evolving, changing, repenting while growing in grace with a joy

TAKE YOUR GIVEN TURN

Learn to send & receive life, repeat, to live & not just exist & in the doing of this, you will solve the mystery of you

This is a deeply reflective piece that challenges readers to examine authenticity and transparency in their own lives. The reminder that growth requires risk and openness is powerful. Being known, rather than hidden behind guarded thoughts, is what allows connection, learning, and influence to happen. Thought-provoking and honest.

Richie & You - there's really nothing wrong with thinking, but when doing goes down the wrong alley, that's when there's a problem. Bad thinking becomes habit forming and before you know it, judgements and criticism come out of the mouth's dispenser.
