Consequences

Consequences happen as a result of our actions. The term “You reap what you sow” is a good metaphor for this process. There is the sowing of seed, how one performs that. Then there is the season, how long one has to wait for the harvest, and then there is the reaping. Each part has a process, and a time frame. And that time frame can change depending on the season, or by the type of fruit being sown. The seasons of the Universe change dramatically depending on the age we live in. So don’t expect to calculate these seasons with any accuracy unless you are a mystic. And if you are not called to, don’t even try. Just recognize that payment for any previous debt’s are due. You can pay now, or pay later. The choice is yours.

For instance, I was verbally, and sometimes physically, abusive to my family. I learned this abuse from my father. My abuse would take the form of anger when some situation didn’t go my way. I didn’t necessarily reap the consequences of that treatment of others right away (but I have reaped consequences right away from other actions). It took twenty years to finally reap the consequences of this kind of behavior when I married my wife. The abuses I caused to the people around me became an identity I brought with me into our marriage. My wife already had a abusive family, and we played the victim/aggressor/savior roles together.

Because we both had such a similar history of abuse, we would behave in such a way as to escalate the process to the point of explosion. I love my wife dearly, and this cycle of abuse was destroying us, so I decided to do what ever it took to stop it.

Once I started working on my rage, which came about due to the thought processes of being wronged, my actions changed. I remind myself that my anger is about me, and that I have control over my reactions no matter what was happening in front me. I stop reacting to my own preconceived judgments others have about me, and work to create the life I want t see: Happiness, Calmness, and compassion, for myself and others. I draw on these principles in everything I do. I think I had to reach a breaking point before I really took this practice to heart. There was a time when I thought nothing would change in my life situation no matter how hard I tried. My situation did change, drastically, after a few months of after practicing ”Constructive Living”. My family started recognizing my efforts, and then I also noticed that each individual of my family was learning how to be more loving.
