Dear Wisdom,
Please help us to make life a wondrous adventure as be explored with courage and zeal.
“You have heard: now see all this; and will you not declare it? From this time forward, I make you hear new things, hidden things that you have not known.” Isaiah 48:6
Some were raised in an environment of fear of the unknown. They were seeped in paranoia from their parents. Others travel the world as if it were their own backyard. Most would like to have that same level of exuberance for international travel. “ Life is either an adventure, or nothing at all.” Said the philosopher. How can we evolve into beings that are confident of our abilities and eager to see the rest of the world?
Thank YOU!
Care to comment, Wisdom?
Answer
One can feel confident if they believe in a God that is more powerful than man and loves them unconditionally.
Mankind is not viewed as being more in control of life.
Parents do not retain their power from childhood. For some, the fear they were raised in lives on into adulthood. The false beliefs are never challenged. People do not stop and think if the core foundation has value or is even rational.
If a person were told death was the outcome if they ever traveled overseas, unless their illusion was updated, they would never leave the country.
It is wise to know what is erroneous but it also helps to know the root cause. Sometimes understanding how the lie came about can bring compassion and a realization that it is someone else’s truth but doesn’t have to be yours.
If the information stored in the mind is wrong, it needs to be changed. Any change to the system needs to be seen as an easy update.
Sometimes parents tell children what they want them to believe. A child might be told lobster tastes awful because of how costly the entrée is on the menu. That was a false belief installed because the parents could not afford the pricey meal.
If now, as an adult who has a good salary, never will try lobster because of this “white lie”, his life has been limited because of childhood memories.
It is one thing to know where the falsehood originated. It helps if one knows the reason behind the statement. One can accept the why without having to investigate every aspect of childhood.
One heals with compassion.
Thank you so much, Wisdom, with love.
You are welcome little stop sign.
Many stop signs were created from childhood. Some have uses such as don’t touch a burner with your hand while it’s on.
There are other stop signs out in the middle of nowhere. Those signs can be removed for easier traveling.
You can get rid of useless stop signs. Many of those stop signs are found within.
We will help with that new construction of freeways with no stop signs.
