Realizing Reality

Dear Beloved,

Have you seen reality television lately?  I have and I have to say that there is very little reality in it, but I know that I don’t have to tell you that.  What today is about is living in our reality.  What is your reality?  Do you live in it?  Do you tell the truth to yourself?  Do you appreciate the honesty in your surroundings?  I find that sometimes reality and fantasy are one in the same.  Someone told me once that reality is what you make it.  Is that true I remember thinking.  I think it is true and here is why.  If there are any secrets that you keep that could change your day to day life then you are living in both fantasy and reality.  Fantasy because you are living outside of the truth and reality because there are other aspects of your life that are not touched by the fantasy and remain reality. 

It is so easy for someone to say just let it go or just tell the truth, but the person saying it surely has lies that they have told and they probably have things that they are holding on to.  What I said that I would do for myself is not lie to myself.  I don’t try to trick myself into believing that wrong is right.  I know when I have done wrong and I own it within myself.  This process has helped me to develop better relationships.  Before I started doing this I found myself not being happy or choosing the wrong friends or making really bad decisions, but since I have been using this process I have been practicing what I preach to myself. 

Reality is in fact what you make it and it is like finger prints, different for every person.  I am happy to know that I have a system in place and that I am moving in the right direction. 

Let us pray: I Am that I Am I  thank you  for making me who I am and for allowing me to know that it is possible for me to become who you would have me to be.  Thank you for the courage to know when enough is enough and the ability to make the changes that I need to make in order to make my fantasy a reality.  I ask you to continue to grant me the wisdom that it will take to make great decisions and the tools that I will need enforce them.  This I pray in your name.

Amen
