You should always be aware that your head creates your world.
If you want those around you to act in a more loving and conscious manner, act in a way that helps them to do so.
We see things not as they are, but as we are. Your addictions distort how you process the enormous flow of information that is constantly flooding in through all of your sensory inputs.
A loving person lives in a loving world. A hostile person lives in a hostile world.
As we grow in higher consciousness, we discover that it is more important to be the right person then to find the right person.
By tuning in to your minute-to-minute stream of consciousness, you discover the addictions that make you worried, anxious, resentful, uptight, afraid, angry, bored, etc. You thus use every uncomfortable emotion as an opportunity for consciousness growth. Even though you may still be feeling emotional and uptight, you begin to get at the roots of your ups and downs - your brief bits of pleasure and your long periods of unhappiness.
Whenever you're unhappy, your emotions are telling you that the people or things around you are not conforming to your vision of the world, or the way you think things should be.
It is only your mental habits and your selected memories of how you think things are that keep you from moulding things in your life in a more harmonious way.
Think of the world as a loving place that is designed to give you everything that you need.
The love and peace of higher consciousness flow from just being - and enjoying it all. Anything you do will not be enough unless you feel fulfilled in just being. Usually we are not happy when we find doing whatever it is that we think we have to do. Doing creates expectations that your world and the people around you may or may not fit. The things we do disappear in time. We must learn to appreciate just being alive in the nowness of whatever situation we are in.
