I Re-Live My Aha Moments and Keep Them Ever Fresh in My Perception
Human nature tends to prefer perception over reality. It takes courage to abandon your perception and replace it with aha moments of truth.
Aha!
True freedom is
The reception
Of perception
That aligns with
Reality.
Anything less
Is a bondage
To deception.
If I’m not open
To revelation
Of the deception
Of my perception
I’ll stay stuck in it.
You won’t perceive what you’re unwilling to see and to admit. Perception depends on the kind of person you are. An unkind person perceives threats. A kind person perceives possibilities.
First perceptions are often deceptions. Look deeper. An unmanaged mind will be full of false perceptions. Honest people realize that their perception has often been wrong in the past and will continue to be in the present and future. The limits of your perception are not the limits of reality.
Some people say, “Perception is reality.” The truth is that human perception is often deep deception that has abandoned reality. Perception is often a projection of a person’s thoughts, feelings, and desires that has little basis in reality. The false idea that “perception is everything” causes people to believe their feelings instead of seeking the facts.
Elon Musk said: “Perception will match reality over time.” The truth is that deception often lasts a lifetime (even millennia). I do some amazing illusions. (If you ever want a show let me know.) Those illusions prove that perception isn’t reality.
With mind management you can adjust your perception and align it closer to reality. By mind management you can control your thoughts. Without it your thoughts will control you and lead you into misperception.
Kind thinking is the kind of thinking that will make the world a kinder place. Train your mind to be kind both to yourself and to others. Whether prenatal or postnatal, unkindness and cruelty are not good things.
Jesus said to deny yourself because true perception has to humbly cast aside self-deception and meet with God. Religion often “masks the real absence of a true meeting with God.” “Predictable devotional patterns” do not guarantee a meeting with God. Humbly seeking Jesus first (with all your heart) “and moving in response to the presence of the Lord,” does. Shake off religious coziness and open your entire life to the awesome God of Mount Sinai.
Talk to Jesus. Don’t just listen to a weekly talk about Him. Listen to what He is personally saying to you throughout each day.
Crying cheater before an election is even finished is an attempt to intimidate people and to shift the blame for feared loss to other people. It’s very immature and selfish to try to destroy the trust Americans have in their 50 (one in each state) presidential elections every four years. It also put election officials and workers in danger.
No matter how hard you try to persuade someone, people won’t perceive truth that their mind isn’t open to receive. However, many people believe that arrogantly presented faulty arguments have a lot of power to persuade.
