A Woman Named Beauty
Some time ago I met a woman called beauty. Her beauty came from the inside although the outside was beautiful to. Beauty was her name. She had insights of life, understandings of people, passions of a saint and the attraction of a goddess. No wonder she was called beauty. Beauty loved life, she loved to give, she understood that others needed her help and she would surrender her all to give it. As life went along beauty started to notice her own life more. She would look at others and desire what they have. Not in a greedy way. Just in a way that it seemed better than her life. She felt that having more of what they had in her life would give her more happiness, joy and fulfillment. Beauty would listen and apply and transform. The ideas of others excited her, the inspired her, the energized her. She would try and live just like them for a while but couldn't sustain it. They made her happy until she felt unhappy again. Then beauty would repeat the cycle all over again. Looking outside for happiness. Follow what she thought was happiness. End up unhappy and repeat all over again. This led to beauty being unhappy in life. Beauty is now sad and alone. She has her animals. She has her transient friends. She has herself. Beauty is alone. For years, she listened to the teachers, the gurus, the masters, the path makers, the changeling masters, the high voices. They gave her, she took, beauty is unhappy, sad and alone. Beauty had everything. She had all that made her happy. She had her loving, warm, beautiful home. She left it behind. She had her loving, caring, deepest soul-mate man. She left him behind. She had her dreams, she left them behind, some would say, she had everything. But beauty left them all behind. Something went on here. After all everyone could see the beauty in beauty. She couldn't see it herself. This is real, I have seen and spoke to people like beauty a lot. They really do exist. So if beauty had everything why did she keep running away, tearing up and destroying what she had? Beauty had been dealt a cruel hoax. The cruel hoax has been around for centuries, for millennium, since man appeared. The cruel hoax is this. "THE BEST IS YET TO COME" Beauty like a lot of others believe in the future yet to come. They believe the future or future event is the key to happiness, success and life. They look around and see what others have. They see smiles and happiness in others and they want a part of it. Or ... They are told to be like others, to have what others have is destructive to the inner being, the charm and freedom of the self. This is a cruel hoax. Beauty is alone and sad. Why? Because happiness cannot depend on future events. Happiness depends on the now, your NOW. You can be miserable all day believing that when you go out in the evening that will make you happy. Yet when you look back over the day 12 hours have passed in a state of unrest for the hope of happiness in a moment. Does that make sense to you? The hoax of future expectation is cruel. People are told This will lead to happiness, that will lead to fulfillment yet the truth is happiness is here. It is now. It is this moment. How are you feeling? Are you hoping things will pick up? Are you wanting the perfect relationship to arrive? Are you wanting to see more happiness joy and fulfillment in your own life? Who or what do you ask for guidance?
Do you ask the guru?
Do you ask the specialist?
Do you consult the psychic?
Do you read cards?
Do you ask a friend?
Do you ask your parents or partner?
Or ... Do you ask you? The problem is when we ask ourselves the questions, the reply comes back but our own reply cannot tickle our ego. Our ego is the destroyer of the person. It ego is a master deceiver of us. Be careful! So although we have the answers ourselves, it feels it is better for us to hear the answer from others because that makes us feel significant and special. It fills a void. It packs more punch because it has the adoration and outside affection from others. The problem with living like that is this. When we listen to others for our happiness, we always depend on others for our happiness. While they live their lives according to themselves, they still control yours. You then give away you life experience to others. When we listen to ourselves, we depend on ourselves. You are more powerful than you might know. The woman named beauty cries when she wakes, cries in the day, cries in the evening. It's now 49 years since beauty was born. She is alone. She doesn't want to be alone, she is alone. Beauty looks back at what she let go. She followed what she really felt were her dreams when in reality she was absorbed by the hoax. Her dreams were part of the ideology of others. Her man has gone, she left him. Her family have passed on, they grew old and died. Her friends are settled with grandchildren and first or second husbands. Beauty looks in from the outside and wishes the past could return to her so she could re-live it all. Yet all of her life her hope has been future based. The problem is the future never arrives! Now her past has gone. There is to be no re-run. It's gone. She had it all and kept walking away from it all hoping "the next thing" would be happier. This is the cruel subtle hoax. The future does not hold the key to your happiness. Today does.
You can have happiness right now.
You can have what you want right now.
You can have all the joy you need right now.
Nothing is perfect but it might be the closest you get to it. Nothing is absolutely dead right but it might be the closest you get to it. The lady named beauty is beautiful. She gave and never got back what she felt would make her happy. She failed to see what she had and lost everything. When her friends see her they love her. When others see her they love her. When they go away they say "it must be hard for Beauty, such a beautiful person but all alone" This world is packed to the brim with perpetuators of the hoax. Do you need them. Can you avoid them? Do they have your best interests at heart or their own? You are the most powerful person in your life. You have a life that carries a responsibility. That responsibility is for you to create every experience you go through, endure that experience, enjoy, cry or hate it, but it is up to you to create it. Look at what you have right now. You are beautiful, you can create anything you want. You must focus on what you have NOW, the future is unwritten, it's unreliable and unknown. Do you have feedback? Do you know a woman named beauty? Are you a woman named beauty? I love to hear your opinion.
