We Are What Matters – We Are the Creators of Our Reality

For everything that exists two things are essential, matter and a creator. Without either of these nothing would exist. Now, it is said that we are the creators of our own reality and for each of us we have our own unique destiny. In this I fully agree. The question I must ask is that if everything exists within our reality does truly only exist due to matter and its relative creator than how indeed can I have influence over my reality?

The computer that I type on exists because of the matter used to create it and the brilliant mind of the creator – in this case Apple and the masterfully minds behind Apple. The desk that I sit at, the stool that I sit on, the light that I use and the pen and paper that rest beside me are all examples of this existence and all require both matter and a creator.

What of the universe. Well if you believe in God or a God as the creator of the universe you may see that using great matter, this God has been able to create a magical world and even beings that live within this world. If you not inclined to view the creator as a God than you must find reason somewhere else.

You may take comfort in science as being the grand reason it all exists, stemming from the Big Bang and rising through evolution. Even in these theories there is something that has transformed this matter into this universe and all the matter that exists. The complexities of what or who is the true creator of the universe can remain debated but not for the purpose of this post.

At a lower level we can see matter around us and we can connect it to a creator. This being the case it feels then as if some of my reality is without my control. How can I create my reality if everything exists is already created? There is already matter and a creator? Well for most of what I can see and touch is tangible – what about the intangible?

The answer that comes to me is that I am my own creator. With this body, the matter, that I have been given to exist and this soul that breathes within, perhaps I truly can create my reality.

You see it is for everything that exists around us exists and is indeed real however we have the ultimate power to transform it all into the reality we wish to live. We have power to perceive it as we wish, to create awareness of its existence and how and why it exists, and the ability to direct our attitude towards it, either positively or negatively, depending on how we wish to coexist with it.

We can let our reality and all that exists control us or we can control it. As human beings we have been granted the greatest gift – the gift of choice. We have the ability to choose how we wish to exist with everything within this universe and for everything within our reality. The choice we make today will directly affect our reality tomorrow.

You can choose how you perceive all that exists within your reality. You can choose to understand why it all exists and what it all exists for. This includes your perception of other human, beings and living creators all the way to the car you drive, the house you live in or the desk that you sit at. Your perception is based on your senses of all the exists and creates your awareness.  Our mind has an even bigger part on our perceptions of life. For what we touch, feel, see, hear and taste may seem real as real can be, our mind has the final say on how we truly perceive it all.

How than you choose to perceive things within this reality will create and build your awareness. The greater your awareness, the greater your ability will be to better control your reality. In awareness we allow ourselves to detach ourselves from this existence so that we do not wind up being controlled by it. In awareness you build your beliefs and this directs your behaviours.

The greater your awareness the better directed your actions will be, and certainly the attitude you carry when taking action. People who become masters of awareness become masters of directing their lives. People of fail to create this understanding, that usually comes to us by never ending learning and growth, will fail to lead a life that is their own. They will be less likely to leave a legacy that they desire.

If you think you have no desire to live or leave a legacy, you are in hiding or have yet become aware of your true life’s desires. You will only discover these when you know that the reality that you exist in is entirely your doing. When you make that decision to make the change required you will then be in a greater position to better direct and control the path toward your reality.

It can be summarised then that we have the ultimate power of our destiny. Although reality exists due to matter and its creator, our true reality is entirely up to each of us as individual. How we perceive this reality, the awareness and wisdom we have over reality, the beliefs we create and the attitudes, thoughts, actions, and behaviours we take will create our own reality.

We do then have the ultimate influence over the reality we desire to live. To walk a journey that is our own is then entirely up to us. Grab the reins on the reality exists and direct yourself towards the reality you want to live.
