Clearing up some confusion.

I can go into great detail about each one of these statements. But here is a list of truths as I know them. I want to share this with you simply and please let me know what questions you have.
Surrender is not the same as quitting
Giving is not the same as being taken
Compassion and kindness are two different things
Kindness is not weakness
Gentleness is strength
Being a pacifist is being pro peace not being passive
Being pro peace means being pro justice and equality
Being pro peace means being pro environment
Being pro peace means finding ways to create justice, equality and a better planet by peaceful collaborative means... it is possible
Being pro peace means as you become and as you are abundant you keep peace as a main goal
Prosperity does not equal greed
Poverty is or can be an act of greed (hhhmmmm think on that one for a while)
Committing acts of kindness and charity is creating good cause
Allowing others to pay their debts allows them the give back
Allowing others to give allows them the blessing of giving
Allowing yourself to receive payment for what you do or sell allows yourself to be valued and receive the blessing of abundance
Allowing yourself to receive allows you the blessing of receiving
Independent does not equal alone
Inner-connectedness does not mean dependence
Giving and receiving are acts of self love and acts of loving others

So often people think that receiving is greed, it is not. There is a balance to be maintained in the world.

When you do not allow others to give you deny them that blessing
When you do not allow others to pay their debts you deny them that blessing

Forgiving debts for some that are in a place of crisis or giving to charity etc... these are acts of compassion and kindness.

But not allowing others to give or pay for your services or products because of fear or guilt or to control another to keep them dependent on you etc.... this creates an imbalance that creates bad karma.

I will write more fully on this later but think on this for now and please ask questions or leave comments. Dialogue is a powerful way of clearing up myths, misunderstandings and of working together towards a better world.

Peace and prosperity
