Which do you have *self* worth or Self Worth? The first is
based on the mask constructed honed and held in place by an
ego that seeks the approval of society aka others for it's self worth.
While balanced and grounded Self Worth comes from the Honest
Internal Integrity that has thrown the door open to genuineness.
A constructed image has a mask of fear at it's helm and with
that there is no peace. Society may judge and eventually abandon
but genuine Self Worth has a rock solid core which is unshakeable
and freeing. How can Honesty, Integrity, and Transparency that is
genuinely held to and walked lead to anything other than a freeing
up from the demons of a falsely constructed * self worth*.
When one rather seeks the approval of society based on an *image*
one is attempting to put forward as a false front and trying to hold
as a mask to the world then one is entertaining the demons of
unworthiness and lack plus a whole other host of nasty uglies behind
the scenes that are driving one in an unproductive circle of hurt. SELF
Worth needs no masks as the beauty of being a Genuine Sacred Being
is shining forth within the actions of Honesty, Integrity, and Transparency
of a simplistic nature. Now talk about going green. Holistic and you just
can't get any more pure and clean than that. Talk about a breath of fresh
aire. No constrictions - No games just Reality at the helm.
If you need to protect something in a less than stellar, dishonest
manner then HOW can one say they are living freely ? How can that
one claim any SELF Worth ? Are you kidding yourself and perpetuating
pain OR are you ready to turn a corner into meeting the Genuine Sacred
Being that you can be and ARE at the core level. Time to remove the
constructs of falseness the little white lies one engages in to keep
themselves safe. As there is NO Safety in them at all they are simply a
more extended prison of falseness.
The ego can want to make its self look good on paper or with the
neighbors or go along with the popular spin that is engaged in but
comes from anything other than what stems from genuine Self Worth.
Just look at the damage such as sexual impropriety which is widely
touted as just fine in society now. Look at drinking and drugging. Look
at the *games* and movies of violence being sold to children and how
do ANY of these things stem from or turn one towards genuine Self Worth.
The list is endless. The cheating your boss or turning a blind eye or self
justifying actions which one KNOWS at the core level is just simply not
coming from integrity. These things WILL grate on one and bring nothing
but suffering along with them. Do you REALLY want to continue to construct
a cycle of suffering OR are you ready to turn the corner to develop FREEDOM
and to find the key to take off the shackles you have constructed and weigh
you down ?
OM Shanti
