Acquiring the right tastes

12/26/2015

Babies acquire the taste of the first foods introduced to them, it is a learning curve, as they grow we keep introducing new foods to them, some they like and some they don't, only to discover later that they do like them. Those foods they didn't like at first, we call acquired taste.

Acquiring tastes is something we do throughout our entire life, whether cultivating habits, acquiring tastes for foods, drinks, relationships, movement patterns or concepts, and many other things.

It usually starts with something we could do without, we have no need for it and we ask ourselves, should we pick that up? In case we decided to go for it and succeed, it can become part of our daily routine, the way we look at life and the way we conceive of ourselves, to a point where we might not be able to imagine life without it.

People grow in different ways and directions, everyone has his own interest, some people think ahead and plan how they would like to become, and pick up their habits according to that road map, other might pick up habits at random, or following certain people and adopting their choices.

Sometimes we pick up a habit, and later down the road we realize that this habit didn't take us in the direction we wanted initially to go, the habit was a mistake, but now we have an attachment to this habit and sometimes it's hard to give those habits up, even when we know it is working against us.

Some people have different awareness in this regard, some can isolate the wrong pattern and work out a way to grow out of it, while others might seek some guidance, someone who can help them through the growing pains. Some people develop greater attachment to those old ways, many times greater attachment then they have for their original purpose. When that happens they end up developing in the wrong direction, feeling unfulfilled.

As someone who helps people cultivate new ways, it isn't always easy to understand someone's road, and put him back on it, or help them develop and acquire new ways, many times people resist those new ways, only to like them later, and understand what they have prevented from themselves.

Many times it takes lots of patience, repetition, and the building of trust, to get someone to develop these new patterns. And when thinking about it, it is good for these patterns to be examined in that way, as it could be a very long term commitment.

It is something we all do, but it's good to think about it sometimes.

Our Quest For Money

I believe that moving ahead in life is about gaining a new perspective.

Are you familiar with the old adage about the 1% that control most of the money in the world economy by controlling banks and governments, basically stealing money from the poor?

Well that very well might be the case. Another way to looking at it is that money wasn't developed by nature wasn't it, so people like you and me are those who created it, basically from thin air! Now some of us managed to create more of it, maybe also by getting us to give it to them, but ultimately we all created it into existence. 

It is similar to our quest for health, we create it!  people can learn how to have more for themselves. Health is yours! Whether you have more of it or less, you should claim it. And here it's obvious I couldn't take mine from you, though some dictators do take health from people.

Now part of my ways of staying healthy are eating meat. I take animals life to sustain mine, and I will do so till the animal can out smart me into not eating it, it's called the process of evolution. If I really went to hunt it, it might try to fight me, but in nature animals found better ways to escape and avoid the costly fight.

Same about your money, instead of going on about your life while blaming the rich for your misfortune, open up your eyes, and learn what it really take to change your conditions and how to go about it. the ones you criticize the most probably should be some of your best teachers.

It's far easier to blame powerful successful people for taking what is rightly yours, then it is to ask maybe they are willing to share the wisdom and information. Truth is most people don't have strong enough desire to be truly educated! most desire to stay the same much more then they desire to change. Pessimism has low requirements, learning to ask the right questions is an acquired skill.

True Weapons

Some people develop nuclear capacity, a mental one. It's a powerful tool that comes from a big vision, and can supply electricity and power systems, appearing like it was created from nothing. It can also be used like a weapon and create great destruction. 

Using it too often or using it to destroy will take away from its power, and will gradually make it less then nuclear, but also those who use that side of it often many times never fully develop it. It is so powerful but also elusive that some people don't realize they have it. Wanting to test it the wrong way to prove it to themselves, will cause great destruction and an adaptation of the surrounding.

Those that harness it for the good know very well what they are developing, they are intentional about it, and use it to fuel and grow themselves and their happy surroundings, and in case of need, use it to protect their loved ones. Though even then, using it as a weapon be the wrong choice. The true magic of it is in creating subtle currents and energies that are powerful yet happy and playful, that just make things go right, and these subtle energies needs to be nurtured again with great consciousness for them to stick around.


Some people wonder when they see a walking nuclear reactor, thinking, how and why would someone develop such a great power if they never intend to use it. But they do use it! Just not all at once.

Creating patterens in time

With everything we allow to happen through us, we create ourselves, and set patterns in motion, with potentially numerous repetition to happen in the future, for who we are becoming.
Will you take that Ritalin so that you can study (what are you really teaching yourself). Will you have this drink with these people (what emotion are you trying to erase from your experience). Will you have that soda with this less then nutritious food ( why is there this vacuum in your belly). Will you take advantage of this person weakness to make a few bucks (who are you becoming).
Or will you take a walk by the water, read an enlightening book, have a satisfying nutritious meal, help this person out making sure he has been helped as much as possible.

If going from the first group of actions to the second is not easy, it's because you already set things in motion. Truth is it could be easy if you didn't stand in your own way (but on your way instead). You should be asking some questions (and you should have the answers).

Are you informed?

Does a domesticated animal understands its wild counterpart from a domestic view point? does it have any type of knowledge at all? off course it does, and quite a lot. But how applicable is this knowledge to the true ways of this planet. Is the domesticated animal's knowledge more valuable then the wild one's? in a fairy tail world it is... but is it in reality? what is reality?
This is the age of information/misinformation, and we are all domesticated! There is nothing to fear. When starting to understand anything, one of the first steps is understanding that you understand nothing.

Art is not a choice

All living things are expressive- artists, from flowers of plants to the human face, from the shape and state of our bodies to the way we move and interact. 

Expressing our point of view and perspective on one end, expressing biologic
al and physiological processes on the other. 

We have the ability to take responsibility and conscience control over it or we could be the effect of it, not giving any thought to it and hoping that the end result would be graceful enough for the level and shape of the harmony with the environment we wish for. 

Which ever way you look at it, higher discernment of that expression would put your resources to better use in way of allowing better freedom of harmony for those who seek it.
