Also ask your heart to purify and cleanse this defect and harmful desire.
Ask also the help of the inner father and mother. Every time we eliminate a
defect, we build our soul, our inner temple. We ascend. like going up a
stairway The building blocks to knowledge and wisdom are constructed through the
lessons of our character
defects if we constructively review our conduct each day, asking where we
are resentful, selfish,
dishonest, or afraid. Remember, we need to review constructively, not
destructively. Destructive review is when we ask, "what's the matter with me
anyway." or
"how could I be so stupid?" These question lead to morbid reflection or
remorse and seriously affect our self esteem. In constructive review we ask,
"what will I do next time?" With constructive review we progressively
eliminate the defect and replace it with wisdom.
My Creator, allow me to have my defects because through them I gain in
knowledge of Your will.
Character defects need work every day they did not come presto chango and
they will not disappear over night. Many years of abuse on ones mind has
taken a toll. But it does not entitle us to continue kicking and beating
ourselves up every time we goof up. We need to learn to accept things and
get on with life in good ways.Praying to Creator helps and Being around
Elders helps.
