When I go to a movie I allow this ‘External Illusion’ to dominate me.<\/p>\n
I laugh, cry, etc.<\/p>\n
After, I might even comment on it with friends.<\/p>\n
For a time.<\/p>\n
But I know this ‘External Illusion’ is not my reality.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Just like a movie,<\/p>\n
dramas are created by others (family, friends)<\/em> over a great deal of time<\/p>\n and presented to me all-at-once.<\/p>\n And while I am with them, I allow this ‘External Illusion’ to dominate me.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n However, sometimes we ourselves create a drama\/movie over time<\/p>\n and externalize it as if it was not<\/strong> created by self.<\/p>\n We see it as “other” than our own creation, and therefore almost impossible to change.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n If it’s mine, I can always change it.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Time to accept response-ability for your own creation(s).<\/p>\n <\/p>\n ————————–<\/p>\n To reinforce this read any two below:<\/strong><\/p>\n #\u00a0 22 <\/strong>Attitude<\/a> – 27 <\/strong>Responses<\/a> – 46 <\/strong>Always<\/a> – 54 <\/strong>Self<\/a> – 57 <\/strong>Helicopter<\/a> – 68 <\/strong>Concentration <\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n 70 <\/strong>Conclusions<\/a> – 102 <\/strong>Response-ability<\/a> – 118 <\/strong>Right! <\/strong><\/a>– 127 <\/strong>Not-Me<\/a> – 132 <\/strong>Taking it Personally<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>\n 145 <\/strong>NO Feedback<\/a> – 162 <\/strong>Consider the Source<\/a> – 184 <\/strong>Outside In<\/a> <\/strong><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" When I go to a movie I allow this ‘External Illusion’ to dominate me.
