Origin of Shame

 "Who told you, that you were naked?" Genesis 3:11

The first recorded mention of shame is in the Bible.  Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit and realized they were naked.  Shame overwhelmed their awakened consciousness and they started to look for clothing to cover their nakedness.  It is explained by different interpretations that they did that because they realized that they have sinned, but what does that really have to do with clothing? 

We are all born naked.  In the beginning of our lives it doesn't make us feel one way or another.  I'm sure we look for clothing not just due to our awakened consciousness but simply because we are cold, we don't want to get bit by the bugs, we don't care to have sand all over our bodies and many other valid reasons.  Shame on the other hand is something quite different.  

Once we understand the beginning of the shame we can theorize that we are ashamed of who we are.  Or is it who we have become or what we have done?  How is that, that in that first moment of consciousness all we cared for is to hide not to explore?  Did we all of a sudden realize how little we are in the eyes of the divine?  Did we not like the way we look in comparison?  What was that comparison to? 

Now we have TV, movies, designer clothes, accessories...all sorts of things to make us feel less and different from others.  If you are comfortable with who you are the shame simply disappears.  In 2017 I had an eye opening experience in what we have become.  I experienced cruelty, injustice, betrayal, disappointment and emptiness all on the same day.  For months to come those feelings were enlarged by the feeling of the unknown.  Yet in those months of emotional struggle the Universe provided me with everything I needed to survive and grow: air, shelter, food, water, companionship and the Bible. 

Do not have people simply interprets the Bible for you, either you believe or not you have to read it for yourself to figure out what you want to believe in and where you would like for that Word to take you.  From core to core any version you get will give you a certain message and the message I got was: Love.  The only thing that is worth anything in this world is our desire to be better and love one another. 

No judgement, no prosecution, no knowledge will matter and will make you feel any better than letting go of your shame and comparison, filling your heart with kindness and sharing your love with those around you.  I had people I don't know come talk to me in their moments of suffering, I saw their tears, I felt their pain, I simply listened to their stories.  Good, bad, average...I didn't try to judge them, just listened because after all we are all human, we all make mistakes, our experiences are just experiences, and all we can do is rise above our flaws and try to be better one day at a time. 

Get to know yourself for who you are, not who others tell you "you are".  Personal development doesn't come from the job, money or possessions; it comes from living life, your interactions with others and experiences you encounter.  Personal development requires slowing down and quietly looking deep into your inner self without judgement in search for the answers.  

Luke 6:37 "Do not judge and you will not be judged."  This does not just apply to others it also applies to yourself, if you constantly judge yourself how are you to see the true nature of humanity, how are you to spread kindness and love if all you have is sorrow and pain.

I ask you to shed the layers of shame off your being and become the being you are meant to be: free immortal soul full of love, compassion and happy suffering. 

Protect Parental Rights.  Protect Family.  Support the Change.  Promote Innocent Tears Act.  And I know this is Texas and you may not live in Texas, but you never know where your children will end up living in the future.  Look up your own laws and make the difference there too: follow by example.

Innocent Tears Act

  PROPOSED BI LL TO BE ENTITLED INNOCENT TEARS ACT By Marina Burroughs INTRODUCTION The proposed Bill is in relation to the procedures for taking possession of a child by the Department of Family and Protective Services and is dedicated to my child, K. B. who fell a victim of the flawed system and has suffered the hardest heartbreak of her life and a life-long trauma at such a young age. No child should be a victim of the system that was put in place to protect the children. Parents are not criminals and deserve to be treated as such - the most important people in the child’s life.  Not many parents truly neglect and abuse their children, those that do end up having serious criminal charges.  No child and no parent should have to go through unwarranted separation unless there is serious sufficient physical evidence to suggest that the child is being neglected and/or abused. Hearsay allegations and simply stating “it’s in the best interest of the child” must not be suffici...

The Holly Trinity of CPS Prosecution

 There are three main components to CPS, currently DFPS, prosecution: case workers, prosecutors and the Judge.  Whatever the caseworkers want to call themselves nowadays, and whoever they work for, the contractors or DFPS itself, - all of those are just flashy titles. There are investigators, placements specialists, supervisors - they are all just plain case workers with the room for growth within this cruel field of State level parental alienation industry. Once you have been marked for DFPS Investigation DFPS Investigator comes knocking on your door, or ambushes you or your children in school or any other establishment, as the whole State is their jurisdiction and a "playground".  Anything you say from that point is subject to interpretation and will be interpreted in the favor of separation of the child with the parents.  Case workers work closely with the prosecutors, to the point that the prosecutors will promise the case worker protective order and give them th...

Bill of Rights Optional

In my dealings with DFPS I appear to have no rights.  Not only I have no right to life, liberty, fare prosecution, Grand Jury, being secure in my person, house, property or effects, but I don't even have the right to be silent! Don't even mention second amendment because you will never get your child back! There is nothing voluntary about the relationship where oppressors take your child, take all your freedoms and fight with unlimited funds at their disposal to not give your freedoms and your child back.  So through these dealing with DFPS I cannot help but to question: Is the Bill of Rights optional?  Is it sort of like an old Diploma that you hang on the wall in the office with the degree that is not even relevant to your actual position so we can show off to the whole world: "Look, We the people have the Bill of Rights!"  ....that we can choose to follow or not to follow... I guess that is also a part of the freedoms we have.  What good are those rights if w...
