CIVILITY/ SERVILITY
CIVILITY/ SERVILITY
~ aligning response and action with Truth
When you speak in Agreement, others may consider you Civil, or pleasant. When you act with Servility, you reach beyond mere pleasantness, serving an idea in order to please others, even when it may not vibrate with your personal agenda. Typically, these ideas are learned.
Do not be rude. Do not be un-helpful. ALSO: do not agree with others merely for acceptance and approval . . . and certainly, do not perform acts merely for acceptance and approval.
“I was just following orders.”
“It is our way.”
“I had no other options.”
“It was expected.”
“Everyone knows the outcome of that behavior.”
We have heard these words many times over throughout the history of humankind. How often are those sentiments the backbone of good-doing, and how often are these words justifications for something destructive?
You have always heard these things:
“Better to let an evil person live than to let a righteous person die.”
“Good people do evil by failing to stop those doing evil.”
“It was not my place to speak when they took my neighbor, my spouse, my brother.”
“What can I do, being only one person?”
The most dangerous agendas are silent and invisible. They are partially exposed in superficial layers, yet hard at work in layers deeper.
To what level, and in which ways, do you support agendas with which you do not agree? Are you Civil (ie: pleasant, inappropriately pleasant, or knowingly deceptive) or Servile (obeying agendas you feel are wrong)?
Sharing Light and Love includes speaking Truth and acting with Integrity. Inventory today in which matters you “follow the crowd” rather than asserting your own ideals and standards. What effects do your behaviors create in the world? How can you shift these habits (no matter how they began or in which ways you justify them)?
Showing the world your Light illumines the path for others.
Be generous with Truth and gentle but clear with words. Let your labors be invested in Love and Compassion.
Blessed Be This Day
