Please be clear I am not talking “fault” or blame here. Just total responsibility. If I get in a car wreck I am totally responsible. Whose fault it is will be determined by the courts or my insurance company.
And yes, if I get creamed by a meteorite (that example made me laugh out loud — see it’s already working, we are lightening up here or maybe I should say lighting up), I would be responsible for that event. I’d say I did that.
Taking responsibility has nothing to do with the probability of a certain event taking place. I can guarantee that if I am there, it will happen to me and I will be responsible because I am the one who put myself in that space to make that particular event occur.
Believing is seeing. Yes, belief has power to create physical reality. I have done it many, many times in my life. My favorite “mini-magic” is to create a vacant parking space right up front at a busy event. My wife can’t believe how I can do that on a consistent basis. I believe it will happen, that is my expectation and so it goes.
And, like Little Big Man said “Sometimes the magic works, and sometimes it doesn’t.” So, sometimes I have to park way in the back. And that’s OK too because I like to walk. So, whatever shows up, I’ll own it.
Lastly, no belief makes anyone right or wrong. Some beliefs are just more powerful than others, depending on what you want to create in your life.
My motto is “Whatever works for you, is what you should do.” But watch carefully what you believe because to be human is to have the power of creation and you will manifest that belief in your life, sooner or later.
Conversely, if you ever want to know what your beliefs and intentions are in life, just look at the results you produce. They will tell you right away what your inner most beliefs are.
So, if I believe I create everything in my universe and am responsible for everything that shows up in my life (no exceptions, not even for meteorites), then I believe I am pretty darned powerful. In the deepest sense, that is a good and most graceful place to be and death (our biggest fear) has no power over us because we believe that we have the power to create the start of our life and the end of it to.
Remember, regardless of the belief, the ultimate window to a person’s soul is to look at the results they produce in their lives. None are better or worse than others, only different and they in turn produce happiness or suffering.
Finally, I have one last belief I want to share with you: Music is the language of God and there is no sweeter music than the sound of laughter.
