What is inside us shapes our external experience
What is inside creates what is outside. Each person contemplates life through their own filters and beliefs .
It is as if each of us had glasses with which we contemplate life. These glasses have color filters and crystals that increase or decrease the importance of things. These glasses guide us to focus on some things or others .
Our beliefs limit the reality we perceive and guide us to focus on things that match those beliefs.
Take the example of a person suffering from color blindness, that is, who has a certain inability to distinguish one or more colors. That person can perceive many things but has a limitation. This limitation prevents you from appreciating many other things depending on the color or colors that affect your colorblind condition.
In life that happens to all of us. Not necessarily in the sense that we cannot distinguish some colors, but in the sense that depending on our beliefs and our personal filters, there are things that we do not see and that go unnoticed in our lives.
Beliefs and limitations
Every belief we have limits the way we see the world. There are very limiting beliefs and others that are less, but each and every one of them condition us when it comes to seeing and experiencing life.
Any person who has a lot of anger inside, can only perceive life after the filter of that anger. Whoever accumulates a lot of hatred within him, can only experience a reality in which hate is present in virtually every aspect of his life. That is why it is so important to become aware of the emotions that we repress and accumulate throughout life. These emotions have the power to affect us when it comes to seeing and experiencing things.
The same happens with positive emotions or beliefs. Those who have love in their hearts often see the bright side of life. They have the ability to see the best of each person they relate to. And that allows them to have a more pleasant and happy life experience.
It is important to look inside our hearts and see what emotions we have accumulated inside. Only then can we bring them to light and give them awareness. This will prevent them from continuing to mark each and every one of our experiences.
We have to forgive ourselves and anyone involved in creating those negative emotions. Otherwise our life will only be a reflection of all that disharmony.
Forgiveness towards oneself and others is one of the best tools that exists to heal our lives.
It may seem that by forgiving another, we are giving in, agreeing or approving their actions, but in reality we are only lightening our own emotional charge.
By forgiving others, we release the emotion we were experiencing. It doesn't matter if the other was right or wrong. It doesn't matter if what the other did was right or wrong. The only thing we have to see is that if we don't forgive, we don't carry the burden.
Forgiving is an act of personal healing.
If I hate someone, my hate is sure that in one way or another it reaches the person I hate, especially if we take into account that at a subtle and spiritual level we are all connected, but what is clear is that the first person who Experience that hate is me. Because that hate is in me. That is why we must begin to forgive and love without delay .
From the inside we create the outside . What is inside each person shapes the external experience that person experiences. The internal alters the perception of what is outside and makes us see and live things in a certain way. So if you want to change your life, don't worry about what you see outside. Take care of what's inside . That is where all the beliefs that make you see and experience life are as you do.
