Free
Yourself of Judgment
- It is Only Hurting You
Ijust
finished writing the new "Remembering
Wholeness"Study
Guide. I thought it might
be 30-40 pages long.
It
turned out to be 70-pages!
Why
has it taken me nearly 3
years since I wrote thelatest
edition of "Remembering
Wholeness to write thestudy
guide?
Quite
frankly because I need the
help! This past yearI have
allowed myself to create
way too much unnecessary
drama and struggle in my
life and it is time to takewhat
I know to a higher level
of living it.
I
hear from people all the
time that are graciously
willing to share with me
how "Remembering
Wholeness"is
changing their lives.
I
recently visited my book
listing on www.amazon.com.
I
go there once in a while
just to see what people
aresaying about my book.
I
am very fortunate to have
24 5-star reviews in responseto
my book "Remembering
Wholeness: A Personal Handbook
forThriving in the 21st
Century."
There
are 24 amazing 5-star reviews
that have been written about
my book and 1 review that
completely slams my book
and quite frankly me as
a person.
K.
Miller expressed some very
negative things about meand
my book. It is up to you
if you want to read it,
if youchose to go to www.amazon.com
and search for Remembering
Wholeness.
After
I read this review my first
reaction was anger, what
doesthis person know, how
dare they, they don't even
know me! Did they even read
the book I wrote?
They
have no idea what I have
been through, the challenges
I have taken on in my life,
which I believe I did so
I wouldhave to find answers,
which caused me to think
and questionbeyond the norm.
I
was offended by this review
and I wanted it off the
site.
After
some emotional release tapping
to let go of the emotion
that was firing up my reactive
mind, I settled down and
came to a greater place
of under-standing.
I
thought how sad that we
live in a world where peopledecide
they can be the judge of
another person's work. How
sad that without even knowing
me personally I was called
guilty of some pretty terrible
offenses.
I
asked myself how many times
have I done the same thing.
How
many people have I misjudged
and drawn negative conclusions
of all based on my perception
of what isacceptable and
what is not.
I
saw how I responded to this
reader in the same venomous
waythat I was attacked.
I was guilty of what I was
judging!
The
only reason we still have
wars on this planet isbecause
somebody has to be right
and somebody has to be wrong.
I
choose to live more and
more in a place of just
being.Being true to myself
and my beliefs in God and
Christ (and angels!), and
to choose more allowance
and with those who believe
differently.
I
had to own this review coming
onto my listing....you see,I
had been saying to my husband
many times before itappeared
that I will know that my
book is getting outthere
when I get a bad review
on Amazon.com!
Mmmm,
could I have attracted this
to me by talking aboutit
and speaking that to Jon
more than once?
Reading
this negative review may
trigger your anger.It may
cause you to think you need
to put this personin their
place. Tap it out, let it
go, you will only attract
what you don't want as a
result.
Nobody
likes to be put down and
verbally condemned, I would
much rather attract gratitude
and thanks, and givegratitude
and thanks.
So
thank you to all of those
who posted positive inspiringreviews
of how "Remembering
Wholeness" has
made a differencein your
life. That was and still
is my intent in havingwritten
it.
Thank
you to those who will add
your positive, upliftingcomments
in your own review at www.amazon.com.
For
this week, chose to let
go of judgment. If you donot
agree with someone, move
beyond it. Your negative
emotion is just adding to
the collective pool of whatis
feeding war and conflict.
It is okay to have your
own opinion and feel differently
than others. But, doyou
have to make them wrong
to make yourself right?
God
Bless You,
Carol
