A Point Of Reference


Dear,

At times we wonder why in life certain bad things do happen to us? At times we are lost in our thoughts and only harm our selfs the more when finding our way out by indulging our thoughts more and more into those bad scenes of the past and so the cycle never ends. One keep asking the question “why do certain bad things happen to me” The more you think about something the more you invoke the spirits of that entity from the past to the present it becomes live and this energy controls your life.

Knowing where we are.

Life Moment with Karl Faase

Friends of mine were traveling in Europe with a hire car. At each city they would leave the car and explore the area. They were always concerned about finding the car when they had finished site seeing. In Sienna, Italy, they parked their car near a sign which said furmata. Now they were safe; if they got lost they just had to ask where furmata was and they could get back to their vehicle.

Well, again they were lost. Easy, they thought, find someone who could speak English and ask where furmata is. It didn’t take long so they asked the English speaker how to get back to the car. They said it’s parked near furmata. Can you believe their dismay when they were told that furmata is Italian for “bus stop”.

In life, as in travel, if you choose points of reference to make sense of life, be sure your points of reference make sense. Jesus said “I am the way, the truth and the life.” I believe Jesus to be a great point of reference for life.

I am trying to situate my point of reference in all I do to something that makes universal sense and that is Jesus, what about you. ?

Those who invoke the void find themselves in an empty space. Just as Karma defines it, the effects of all deeds actively create past, present, and future experiences, thus making one responsible for one's own life, and the pain and joy it brings to him/her and others

Your friend,
