Reaffirming your Integrity

Reaffirming your personal integrity

As a part of the ONE, every thought and every action we partake in, has an effect on the world around us. Awareness of this brings with it consciousness of our impact on the people in our lives. Considering the full ramifications of our actions can be an important part of our spiritual growth. Being more conscious requires effort, but once we have made it a habit, it becomes second nature, and the easier it is to find ourselves in easy alignment with our integrity.

Our thoughts are the seeds of our actions; without getting obsessed with monitoring and controlling them, we can perhaps choose one thought per day and simply notice if we are in alignment with this experience of integrity. When for instance, we are holding negative thoughts about someone, we risk trapping them in negativity. We should let go of the negative thought and replace it with a wish for healing on that person's behalf.

In the event of us having something difficult to express to someone, it would help to take the time to consider how we would feel if we were to find ourselves in the other person's shoes. When we modify our approach by taking someone else's feelings into account, we bring benefit to that person and ourselves simultaneously. The more we do this, the more we reaffirm our integrity of our relationship to the world.
