What if Tom tried to belittle Joe by saying loud, embarrassing things about him in front of others?

What if Tom felt so bad about himself that the only way he could feel better was to try and make others feel smaller?

What if Joe had the power to belittle Tom but then he would be a bully bullying a bully and chose not to?

What if others felt embarrassed for the bully and kept their distance?              for Joe

What if you get the shoes at half-price?

What if you take advantage of me with your intimidating skills and your pushy personality and your domineering ways and I feel stupid for allowing this?

What if, down the line, KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK, the Universe brings someone to your door who has all of your qualities 10 fold and they treat you far worse than you ever treated me and you realize the effect of your actions?

What if I turn my listening ears on?

What if I say to myself: I cannot do that, it is too hard or I am not smart enough or it is too much work for me or it is dangerous to go there or I am too old for that or others will not like me if I do that AND I am correct?

What if I say to myself: I am always safe or what can it hurt to have a go at that or age is just a belief or it might be fun to try that or I wonder if I could do that AND I am correct?

What if my soul knows the answer?

By Lynne Cory

What if when I am in a “quandary,” I sit and ask my soul which way to go as my soul has been with me since my first lifetime and knows me intimately?

What if my soul has had many positive and negative experiences with me over the lifetimes and also has a great memory?

What if my soul had answers that I could not even imagine?

What if I talk too much?

What if I never have enough? Woe is me, I think. What if I commiserate with all of my friends about my lack?

What if it stays the same or gets worse and the lack piles up around my ankles?

What if I start thinking about and talking about what is good in my life?

What if things start to slowly get better and then take off like a rocket?

What if she is distracting me?

What if I continue to call a friend who then talks on and on and on about herself and rarely asks about me?

What if I am creating my own life and find that I am using her as a distraction to stop me from doing something I am hesitant or fearful of doing?

What if once I realize this, I begin to use my time more effectively?
