My priorities have changed drastically over the past year.
Previously, it was about self satisfaction. It was about redemption, and false claims. My idealized self (reference taken from Karen Horney's "Neurosis of the human mind") was in a sense of eternal greed. Money was important to me, praise from others was important to me, prestige was king.
Things have changed..and are still continually changing (for the better..i hope)
God matters to me most now. I think that is the key. All the other pieces of the puzzle will fall in to place if my focus becomes paying a tribute to his Holyness and glory. I believe that if i am faithful, and solid, and persevere, all the other It has to be the umbrella under which all the other things i care about fall. These include
-Caring for others more than myself
-Loving all, as we all are messed up but God's kids.
- Not hating/disliking people. Maybe disliking habits, but not people in general
-Not hurting others. Helping them. Making them happy.
-Making this world a better place
-Friends, my chosen family, people i care for. Their happiness and well being.
-Improving myself and raising my consciousness level.
-Increasing knowledge and wisdom
-Taking care of my mind, body and soul
- Making the best use of my time
- Protecting my mind from useless banter, corruption and just wrong things
- Doing my job to the best of my ability.
- Finding a higher calling in life
- Finding someone i can share my life with. This for some weird reason that really matters to me these days
-Being humble but also courageous enough to stand for what i believe in
- Constantly improving, and growing in the right path. Doing things which actually matter.
