What more proof could there be that we aren't in control than the fact that we regret things?
There are plenty of things I think I might do differently but the perfection is already going on.
When we see perfection everywehre we see God
i don't know that regret is the rite word for me. But lack of control? Yes! We r not in control and we cannot control these things and the people who come into our lives... only ourselves. Good point Brock! What i have noticed is that some people just get angry, close down, cut out or shut out relationships; instead of moving forward and trying to communicate, come to an understanding and perhaps compromise. If nothing else relationships that are stagnate can come to a quandary that just needs time to assimilate and find common ground and understanding at a later date. i have seen this happen many times in my life. But why create more karma by being cruel, cold, angry and abusive? This only creates more karma for the perpetrator.
This is what we see in international affairs; reaching out finding solutions. If it was not so we would be at constant war with everyone. If we do not start it on a personal level how can we expect it on a national or international level? That is what this thread is all about!
Yes; seeing that perfection really helps us come to terms with relationships. Seeing it like God would... not our small selves that is something to pray and strive for!
