We believe mistakenly that good is unrewarded, evil goes unpunished, and that life lacks true justice. Why? Because the memory of our positive and negative actions fades over time, and when their delayed effects appear, we see them as simply random events.
Make no mistake - everything counts!
Today, pay attention to the way you think, speak and act. Every thought counts, every action counts, every word counts. (Yehuda Berg)
Keeping this in mind, how do we put that in the context of how we live our lives. How many rules do we really need to make. Our internal self regulator (conscience, morals, innate knowing) is always there. It is only when we argue with what we know is right that we end up feeling so wrong.
So why do we rebel against our true nature? Our internal voice is there for the listening. Maybe we just want to live a little. By making these dumb and sometimes drastic mistakes we are furled into action. Our world is not so sane or mundane or disdained. Some believe that if you get it all together- you are out of here, you gleaned all that you need to know. We would all die young, if that were the case, as it is said that we are born with all the blessings of wisdom and righteousness, but we quickly forget as we proceed with the dance of life.
It is only when we realize that complication is not energy fueling us forward, but rather, delays by leading us astray. Both chaos and meandering aimlessly are two forks in the same road, like switching channels, you can vaciillate between their embers. When they call it “the straight and narrow”, I wonder if rather than think of it as the boring, goody two shoes path, what if it was the direct path straight to Paradise?
