Deeds and words.......

“Do not be content with showing words alone,let your heart burn with loving kindness for all who may cross your path.” Abdu'l-Bahá, Paris Talks, p. 16





Deeds and words,Can we cause disunity ,while we are building the bridge of unity?

Have you ever said something to someone and then went back on your word?Have you ever said let’s talk soon and never did?

Have you ever met someone and said hey,lets get together soon and never did?

Have you ever wondered what that may do to the person we said that to?

What if this person is someone that hasn’t heard I love you very often ,or feels abandoned,has had a hug in which they don’t experience very often.,has deep conversations.

And then they nevr have contact with you again?

They are probably wondering ,I feel very deceived,separated ,I’m not important etc.
It becomes internal,then when this person is no longer around it can be very damaging and it can cause disunity, the person who experienced this deep moment may then start to think that this person doesn’t care about me,they start to manifest thoughts that aren’t unifiying


How can we keep this from happening,or can we, or is it inevitable or is it part of it? We build a bridge and then we close the gate.This is a question that has been on my mind for a long time.


Facebook for example is a place where you can get a lot of people who become your friend,I have friends that have defriended because they don’t have a connection,they are not really friends they don’t talk ,we live in a world where we know that people are really wanting to have relationships…….committed ones ,…are difficult ….it’s a lot of work ,whether it’s a marriage or a friendship between two people that share a similar vision,its a lot of work and can carry disappointment and we realise that these things can happen.

Can you work thru it and where is your relationship at?Because if you don’t hear from people you think gee I am not as important to this person as they may have said and maybe they were just talking cow poop to me.

That is one of the things that has been on my mind

This is something that has to be delt with,it happens a lot between men and women,men and men, women and women,lack of transparency.

People don’t realize what is going on because communication has stopped.

I have a small group of friends that I will do anything for, will talk about anything with them,I love them ,and they know this ,I make no bones about it.because if I love you ,you are going to hear it all the time!!
They don’t have to doubt it ,it is transparent.Mostly, we are not honest and clear about what we mean, with our actions.When I say I love you ,I mean you are in my heart and in my life.


We shouldn’t just say things like I love you ,you are special to me, when we use phrases we have to really realize what we are saying, because to other people it’s a big deal and it may be the only connection they have to the light, to the love and seeing spirituality in a different way.

This is a priority to look at that our words and our actions agree.

Actions speak louder than words.If you say to someone that you love them or you care for them,and you don’t come through, you need to commit or not say it at all.

Its very damaging ,can change that view of that person towards other people
Or of others who may come to them after and say to them I love you, you are important or we are friends..”Friend” has been used loosely on the amount of networking sites that exist,I have people that follow me on twitter, most are networking trying to get me to look at their stuff, if I am going to look at their stuff, or blog or website,I am going to do it,I’m going to block people if I want to.

I am on this earth to progress my soul and having empty relationships is not a way I am going to go about doing it.


I am interested in what people have to think about this subject?
