Hello Readers,
‘Don’t talk, just act, don’t say, just show, don’t promise, just prove’.
Some people say and make promises they either cannot keep or have no intention of fulfilling. These people are the classic empty vessels who make the most noise. They do this on a daily basis and say things like ‘next year we will have that big holiday’ or ‘When my divorce comes through, we will get married’ and so forth. The list is that long it would take me from now until Christmas to list all the false promises I have heard people make over the years. I am sure many of you know what I mean?
You can tell someone as many times as you like how much you love them, but until your actions and behaviour coincides with that, eventually the person you are bleating your love to will start to lose faith and end up not believing you. Some feelings cannot be expressed in mere words and they require actions to speak for them. Words are cheap. Anyone can promise someone the earth and their undying love but they will not experience the importance of these emotions until they are acted upon. Promises are worthless without proof. People lie all the time. They lie to keep their secrets safe, they life for the sake of lying and many actually believe their lies to be true. They lie to appease others. They say things just to impress. They make false promises and then make flowery excuses to justify why they could not fulfil their promises and if you believe their lies, you will believe just about anything. You can only learn about a person’s true character by watching their behaviour towards you and towards others. Actions should meet verbal commitment but sadly this is not always the case. We must consistently monitor our actions so that they coincide with with the words that we say. Promises are easy to make and words are even easier to throw around but we have greater faith in people who put their money where their mouth is.
We can apologise for our actions over and over again, but if our actions do not change, the words become meaningless. At the end of the day, whatever your actions may be will show what you are trying to prove. If you are simply talking, nothing is happening, but when actions take place, you are actually engaging in this behaviour.
Actions prove who someone really is whilst words only show what someone wants to be.
The power of action over words is phenomenal. People may not always tell you how they feel about you, but they will always show you. So pay attention.
Never make the mistake of chasing love, attention or affection. If they are not given freely and laced with broken promises and time lines do not be fooled so easily because they are not given from the heart and not worth having. Stop wasting your time and energy yearning after what is not meant to be and focus your energies on more important people and matters.
Until Next Week
Love and Light,
