Wealth and Joy
March 24th 2009 01:42
Ok, I have real problems with this world. Apart from all my catholic church-aimed anger I also wonder why it is that we need to live in ways that make us unhappy.
So many people have great ideas about creating, building and sustaining their own lives but they can’t act on them – we’re told that we need to do this and that and be appropriate and not step outside the square… just in case something goes wrong – after all, we can’t all have it our own way can we. But in reality – God reality (as I see not, not in a religious kind of way) – we actually do have all the tools and skills that we need – the problem is that we can’t see them.
We have been indoctrinated into thinking that only the ‘few’ can have money, wealth, happiness, joy in their lives and they have to give something up in order to get it – actually we have support if we choose it, we have space if we can see it and we have joy if we know where to reach for it. If we want to build our own business for example, we are told that we need to fight and struggle – and mostly we do – why is this???? What’s gone so wrong that we can’t even find space for our own desires, dreams and let fear play out instead. It’s common that people going into business go bankrupt, give it up too soon or just don’t get anywhere – how has this happened?
We claim individuality, we claim girl power, we even claim God but somehow we simply haven’t been able to claim our own lives…
I don’t get it. Though I think a good example of all this is the way that my mother raised me to say that I should never have to do anything that I don’t want to do, but also told me that I could never be more than a secretary – ‘what else could you do?’ were her exact words – strange that so many years later I am still infuriated by that and still unable to move away from it… it’s stuck!! I’m trying to build my own business but I’m also completely stuck in Admin work that that really, really, really don’t want to do – even though I can and it pays the bills.
I actually believe that I shouldn’t have to work in any way to get my business up and running, there should be substantial funds for me to access that will help me. But there is no support, without debt. And with debt comes anxiety – our society is built on money anxiety – it’s no wonder people don’t want to step out and be independent!!!!
What’s the way around this?? My anger stops me from moving in almost every direction. If I’m angry then I can’t have/build money because I’m incapable of moving forward – I’m just angry. This is infuriating in itself because anger builds more anger and anger limits my capacity to think outside and square and create a buiness that will thrive and provide an important service
Moreover, anger is debilitating – I can’t get anything done because the unseen anger under the surface stops me in very unconscious ways – “what’ the point?”
I don’t get this world at all. It’s depressing. I believe one thing and another plays out in my life. How do I dig up that anger that lies beneath my belief that we can actually have all the success that we choose – maybe that’s it – am I not choosing to have wealth but to have anger instead?
If so, how do I change it? How do I stop being anger and start being wealthy, successful, happy?
God, here’s a questions for you… tell the world how we stop being angry and start being wealthy??????????????????
I’ll let you know the answer I get……
