THE UNFINISHED CANVAS ON OUR JOURNEY OF LIFE!
THE UNFINISHED CANVAS ON OUR JOURNEY OF LIFE!
Posted By: Gnostic
Much of what I will be sharing right now are called building blocks, and at times may not make total sense. But as time goes by you will begin to recognize familiarity within these words and then be able to understand the greater vision.
There is one absolute creed that few understand but most abide by and that is one can never expect to create a better reality when they continue to give up. It reminds me of when I have sat by and watched an artist begin a new painting. It always amazes me how there mind operates because when they begin a work it has no meaning from another's point of view. It takes the one painting the actual picture to know where they are going with it.
From the onset of the project the artist begins to lay the foundation, at this point in time nothing on the canvass makes any sense to someone else, but somewhere deep within the recesses of the artists mind, there is a picture that they desire to reveal, and they are beginning to take the thoughts of that picture and slowly work it into a meaningful piece of art.
Life is like that also, all of us are carving a life based primarily on what is in our mind. We are all painting the picture of our life. Sadly though most people when they begin to paint their life, they leave it unfinished while they go after a new canvass and a new idea.
How many of us have unfinished canvasses in our closet?
How many of us have started something only to become discouraged because it was not turning out like we had hoped. and thus the painting is relegated into the heap bin of the warehouse of failures?
Today I want to speak on something that all of you have heard but may have never really understood. It is called the law of attraction. The simple meaning behind this powerful attribute is, whatever you send out in the form of energy, that same energy is drawn back to you via the 2nd power, it actually means more is added back to you. The reason is all energy is attracted to its own kind. Just like building friendships, people are attracted to others that have compatible qualities.
So to begin, one must realize that every effort via a thought process is leading somewhere. It has its own reality of awareness being created the moment you send it into the ethereal. Each premier thought in the beginning is part of a constructed plan. I do not want to center on negative thoughts today, however they are also building things that you do not want. I want to center primarily on those constructive thoughts that you designed for a better world and life.
Do you know what is interesting about this? Even a painter will tell you often they have an idea and as they begin to put the colors on the canvass they become inspired to go into a slightly different direction from where they started. So the first truth one must learn is the law of attraction will always respond however it will come bearing greater gifts than what you sent forth. And thus even your ideas will be gifted with greater ideas via this law as you continue!
Now I want you to really understand this because this is a powerful key. Yes it is true, the foundation of all manifestation begins with a single thought. But when the law of attraction is activated those thoughts then begin to slowly morph into a unique spiral that may have not been the actual intended design of your finished idea. However what is occurring is that you are being redirected via the law of attraction to create a better work than your mind conceived, yet in a strange twist of fate, it was always your mind, except now you are activating a higher mind to help assist using the law of attraction.
We are all artists in reality. We are all creating a life's work on a type of canvas. However most when they begin the process fail to finish the journey and leave off and usually begin to stagnate. The paint was placed on the canvas of life but something happened that made you want to stop what you were doing and abandon the project.
What this creates is a boat load of unfinished projects which begin to really scramble the fate of one's life in a hodgepodge of confusion. What is occurring is that we are not allowing the law of attraction to do its job. We are not using the most powerful part of our gift in life and that is inspiration via the law of attraction. We feel if something does not go exactly the way we want it, then we have failed and then give up!
You see often when a person begins a life journey and things begin to appear to go wrong, what is happening is that the law of attraction based on your journey with all of its hopes and desires is actually wanting to steer you in a slightly different direction. It is not taking the reigns away from you it is just nudging you along life's path. WHY? because the road in front of you is paved with obscurity, but the higher mind knows and sees the finish line. We can attempt a guess but we seldom know what is really in store for us, so we need that extra help to guide us along the way.
As with the artist when they begin with a concept via their idea, often times it never ends up being what they really wanted, they in fact allow the inspiration of the directing consciousness of the law of attraction to take over and they will admit it was much better when finished than they even conceived of.
In other cases artists never feel they get it right no matter how many paintings they create. They always feel they are missing some unique aspect of the art and continue to seek that finished project, but the results prove others loved the work even though the artist was having trouble seeing it.
As an example, as an author I have often created a work and allowed the guiding hand of inspiration to lead me, and when I was finished I loved the creation but did not see much fruit born from it. Other times times I was not sure about the final results. I felt it needed something more and it lacked something just like some artists that finish their paintings, as stated above, they never really feel like it was good enough. Yet so many times when I release an article that I was not sure about even though I thought I allowed the guiding hand of inspiration to lead me, it is those articles I receive some of the most complimentary responses on how effective it was to help someone else.
And this is another key to changing our reality, not everything we do will have direct personal meaning as much as it might be something that someone else needs. This is how each individual is helping to change the whole world. Thereby sending that energy someone else's way for their benefit. And this is exactly how the law of attraction works when someone else may be seeking some need or assistance, and then the creator releases a specific energy that does just that through the hand of the artist without their knowing!
We are no different on our journey of life. We begin with an idea and then move our brush across the canvass of life using our unique colors of personality and our gifts of design. Yet we often come to the block in the road that reveals to us, that we need to be steered in a slightly new direction. As a writer I call this writers block.
It is when you begin a project and it stops flowing like you desire, however it is imperative that you do not quit because what is occurring is your idea is attracting a much better and higher quality paradigm than what you had conceived of and is trying to get your attention to guide you in a unique but higher direction, using the same method of your thought.
No, I am not saying someone else is writing your life for you, it is still you doing the creating, but it is guiding you along the way. How many times when you have begun a project in life have you come up against the wall and feel you went the wrong way and simply quit and then did nothing?
This is called unfinished paintings in our life, and while they show an attempt was made, without a finished product no one will ever understand what the potential was. And thus is the nature of the beast that we created with all of our unfinished projects, a lot of incomplete potentials.
Today I want to encourage all of you by revealing a metaphysical principle. That there are no failed projects in our life's journey, just a bunch of unfinished ones, that believe it or not are all tied together somehow, but to the creator they look like nothing but failed pasts.
It reminds me of a story of a man that lived deep in the woods with his family. Every week he and other neighbors had to go to town through a deep valley. Word got out that a dam in the higher country was about to give way, and the valley would be flooded. However if this occurred the man would be unable to get into town to get food and supplies. So he had an idea, and began to work on it day and night.
In this valley he then began to haul large rocks and started building a wall to protect his path into town. He worked from sun up to sun down every day because there was little time to pause. The dam was about to give way and he knew if he did not get this job done then he and his family and neighbors would be trapped.
He built this wall 7 feet high and 3 feet thick. He finally was able to get the wall finished at the moment the dam broke releasing a gusher of water into the valley. He stood back and watched as his wall was no match for the river of water that flowed through because the water was to high and simply went above the wall and on to the other side.
The next day he peered out into what was once the valley to see nothing but water everywhere. He felt as he completely failed, that the work that he did building this wall was simply in vain.
He went back to his family and sat down feeling totally dejected, and felt that he had failed him and his family. All of that work came to nothing and now their very lives were in jeopardy for how could they get to town without going through the valley, any other way would have taken days.
As this man sat there dejected, he started to hear sounds of excitement being generated from outside his cabin. He then began to recognize the voice and screams of excitement from his wife and children as they were running towards the cabin. He sat up and looked out of his window to notice his children yelling, Daddy, Daddy come and see.
He had no idea what was happening but he followed his family towards the valley where the floods had totally taken over, and when he finally got there he was dumbfounded to see probably the most thrilling sight his eyes could behold. He looked into the river of water that now filled the valley and Lo and Behold he was watching the towns people walking to and fro on top of the water. He said what the heck is going on here?
His children explained, daddy, the wall you built to block out the floods has become a pathway. For the top of it extends somewhat out of the water and everyone can walk on top of your wall to and from town.
You see often we create and then walk away because we feel we failed, when without realizing it, our creation was being used via the law of attraction to do some greater work than what we conceived of at first. This is why we can never give up no matter how we feel about our idea, because every ounce put forth in productivity is always working for the good, it is just not finished. When ideas and thoughts are compounded on a single project it will never fail.
Every successful person has a vision, but few of them seldom ever fulfill it exactly, because along their journey the law of attraction kicked in and slightly steered them another way and their vision morphed into something greater, for their idea they that conceived of needed some change in it to create the better vision and then the law changed it to reveal the true goal.
When people give up they never see their potential finished project, and thus feel as failures. What they do not realize is that they laid the foundation to a wonderful work but like the painting in the beginning was only the foundation, there is no rhyme or reason to its intended end, yet if the painter continues to go forward eventually you will see what transpires and then the beauty of the thought is manifested for all to see.
Why does this happen you might wonder? When we conceive of a thought, we have no idea where it will lead us to and through what jungle we will have to walk in. However, the law of attraction is the accumulation of more thoughts added to the original. And as you continue a momentous mountain of ideas become the building blocks to your future. However these added ideas will not hang around if we do not use them. You see, we offer our idea, and the law attracts more information, if we are moving forward then we will attract that information and add it to our creation.
The law reveals if we continue it will be there to aid us along the way, but if we stop, our supreme help stops also. This is why unfinished projects never finish themselves, unless there is enough momentum built, but that is for another article.
What is so wonderful the law of attraction never gets angry, or will it ever give up. When we fail to complete any project, our creation lays there collecting dust, but if we ever picked it up again, the same law that was assisting before will assist again. But this time, you must not give up, just allow the law to guide you from where you were heading. Many people try to do the same thing over and over again, and every single time the law says do not go that way but go this way, and the person fails to listen and they keep ending up with the same thing over and over again. And then they quit over and over again.
It is imperative to allow the law of attraction to guide you to finish the project and usually when the painting is done, the artist will say, this is not what I had originally planned, but this is much better. They used the power of the law of attraction which began to guide their hands and thoughts and then the results revealed the success.
It is never your lofty ideals and ideas that are at issue here, it is the building mechanics that go into fulfilling what it is that you desire. You will find most successful people that create their own reality will say, they know where they want to go, but they do not know how they are going to get there, and then the magic hand of the law begins to assist them.
Now why have I explained all of this, what's the point? The point my friends is creating your reality begins with one brick at a time, but if you do not finish the project all you have is a bunch of bricks laying in your past that have no rhyme or reason, but it is still what you have created.
The good news is, the project is never completed until it is finished. Those bricks of your thoughts are still laying there where you placed them, and all you need to do is go back to work and finish the project. Take all of the bricks of your past and replace them, organize them. If it appears you have started a bunch of walls and none of them are completed. then go back and find just one WALL that you did not finish and build on it using all of the bricks. Take the bricks of your life's path and remove them from one place and replace them to where they need to go. Each brick had a design whether you realized it or not. The law of attraction knew exactly where those bricks needed to be, let the law work for you.
When you realize this truth one thing will always become self evident, that all of the materials of our creation are laying in hundreds of different places in our past, and they all are part of one single pathway that was designed for our journey. It is called learning through past GNOSIS/knowledge.
Now our job is to return and begin to take our rubics cube of our past and find the finished design out of what we have already begun building. You will be amazed that all of our attempts at success no matter what it is are laying in our past with no apparent rhyme or reason, but they do have a reason and a structured goal, we just need to find out what that is.
Nothing you do is in vain when creating a constructive and productive reality. And even when you finish your project do not dismay if you feel that you wasted all of your time because it did not become what you had hoped at that moment. The creation is still there and it is waiting for its intended real use. It may be that you have greater talents than what you had thought and your finished project was still part of a greater project for the future. And although it might not be the wall to protect your old path, it might instead be your new path that you were building in life.
So as in type of building a wall, one must understand that every brick set on your life's journey is your creation. But how many can look back and see their wall? How many look back and see a bunch of bricks laying all over the country side without any intended or realized use? It appears as a hodgepodge of confusion.
The fact is each idea in life even though alone it may seem unimportant is a building block of your life path's journey. And even when a brick cracks and does not fit your artistic approval, that brick may be what you need to stand on when your wall becomes too high to work on.
So in conclusion to this next part of the puzzle, always understand that any motion you create and energy you produce never goes away, unless it is a dark motion or energy and then it needs to be transmuted. To begin to comprehend the deeper science of the law of creation, you need to understand that all of your creation of the past is still laying out there. It might appear to have no rhyme or reason because it was never finished. But it is still there. And unbeknownst to you, each block has a purpose even beyond your realization because it was a thought that attracted its real intended energy and it remains there for you to complete the project. Remember once again, there are never failed ideas, just learning! An idea that takes you nowhere teaches you not to go there, but it is still a building block that will lead to teh correct source and idea!
So how can one understand this by using every day language? Everything you have tried in the past is and was part of who you are. But for most it is a bunch of unfinished projects. Because they are incomplete your life seems to have no rhyme or reason. You stumble around trying to make sense out of what is going on here and feel like you are lost in a jungle with no hope.
And although a brick in your past may seem to have no apparent reason, you do not cast them away. Go back and get that brick and replace it where it needs to be, ONE BRICK AT A TIME UNTIL YOU BEGIN TO RECOGNIZE WHAT IT IS THAT YOU ARE CREATING. Because when it is all said an done, right now your entire life is lying in the valley of your past all scattered around the countryside.
But if you were to pick up all of the unfinished projects and begin to build on your journey, you will realize that each brick has a purpose that was laying out there, and to your utter shock and amazement, all of them will build ONLY one single wall, YOUR LIFE'S PATH'S JOURNEY and there will be the correct number of bricks out there to finish the job. It is your duty to rearrange the maze you have created and take the puzzle pieces and place them back where they need to be. Everything you have learned in life is part of your life's puzzle. You need it to accomplish your task.
Each THOUGHT that you laid in the attempt to create a better reality is still there, it is those small things that define success. They are your little gifts of learning. They are what has been planted in your garden of life. The problem is all of your seeds are sitting there and no one is tending them, and thus there is no growth. They are lying just below the surface of the ground of creation awaiting for their nourishment and water of life. And then they will begin to sprout and flourish as nothing you could have ever imagined.
Every metaphysical law has a deep principle locked away within, and once understood will unleash an amazing power within and without.
So what are the bricks?
They are your thoughts that you generated to create a better life for yourself, family and the world. All of them are scattered abroad, you need to gather them all up and find out what is on the canvas of your life, because it is out there waiting to be found and realized.
You want to change the world, then start by finishing your wall!
