Why
The single biggest obstacle to joy, fulfillment, happiness and empowerment, love, freedom etc. is the understanding and acceptance that every facet of one's life is self-created in the image of one’s self, including the image of one’s self! It may very well be that one has no idea how one has created certain facets of life and may very well not like these facets but the fact remains that one is completely responsible for having placed them in ones life. One of the things that assists in understanding this difficult concept is the idea that a human being is always intending. To be human is to intend.
Why do good things happen to bad people?
The “aggregation of all currently operating intentions” (
See: MirrorReflectionOfLife.) is what precisely determines all of the content in anyone’s life. This aggregation will always contain simultaneously operating intentions that are confusing and paradoxical to some people and commonplace to others. All evaluations of “right and wrong,” or “good and bad” by one’s self or others are completely irrelevant and are only “outside observations” unless they come to influence the intention itself through the choosing of the person setting the intention.
