A Lesson on Fences.

 

A Thought Adjuster Speaks - Lesson # 51

I desire to speak on fences today. This is a marvelous subject which could bear close scrutiny as all people have fences in some way or other. Of course you are reminded of fences around properties which can obstruct the view. I Am speaking of invisible fences, which can be incredibly hard to break down. Fences can function as a wall between the most intimate relationships, which keep all others out, or which can separate men and women. I Am not really alluding to personal boundaries which are simply good manners, and which respect others’ privacies. There is a fine line with boundaries, which nosey and unthinking people often cross. The fences that are erected between people can be construed as a clash between personalities who for some reason do not get along.

The real tenacious fences, which are hard to scale or take down, are the ones within the personality itself. For example, a person who ‘knows everything,’ and is therefore difficult to teach, has a blind spot, which can be likened to a fence so high, he or she is incapable of looking through or over it to see a wider or different point of view. Pre-conceived opinions about something is another fence. A very tenacious one is a critical or judgmental attitude; the finding fault with others. This is a terrible fence, because it tends to isolate the individual to a certain extent as they are not the easiest persons to live with.

The sorriest fence is the unwillingness to subject oneself to honest self-scrutiny, and an owning up to one’s shortcomings. Often, nothing short of a devastating moment can shake such a one loose from his or her inner moorings, which can then be construed as a life-changing moment, and which functions as a bright light illuminating a dark room, so everything comes into view -- the good, the bad and the ugly are then known in an instant, and the person knows where they have erred.

Mortal death can be such a fence, although often called the door to immortality. At the moment of death, everything can be known to the individual as in an instant his or her life flashes before their eyes, and they see where they have erred. Sometimes a resuscitation takes place, and the mortal gets another chance at life, and often is a changed person, because of this experience, as the fences, build up over a lifetime, have fallen away and the person is now imbued with a greater capacity to unconditional love such as it experienced at that life-changing moment.

Unforgiveness is another fence which needs to be broken down, the same with resentment and impatience, and more. Each person can look within themselves to find fences or walls that prevent them from living life to the fullest, and for their highest good and level of attainment in this mortal life. You all have been given potential gifts to develop yourselves as worthy children of the Creator God.
