From the comments and e mails I have been getting very few people chose to look at the issue through the eyes of the angels, nor have they asked the angels how else they can see these events.<\/p>\n<p>It was interesting to me. I actually found myself getting rather upset with people&#8217;s judgments and of course that meant I was judging them for judging! I view every event in life as opportunity to either deepen my connection to my filter system or to deepen my connection to my spirit. My emotions are a clear indication which direction I am going. Joy, love, acceptance indicate I am getting closer to my spirit. Fear, judgment and anger show me I am reinforcing my limiting beliefs and deepening my connection to my filer system.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><br \/>\nWe as human beings have missed so many opportunities to profoundly change ourselves and the world. Whenever we point a finger of judgment or blame at someone or something there are three fingers pointing back at us, yet we keep trying to blame out there.<\/p>\n<p>At the end of World War II we had an awesome opportunity to collectively, as a species ask ourselves what environment made that war possible. Instead of asking what created such prejudice and hatred that Hitler was able to come to power instead we perpetuated judgment. When 9\/11 happened we did the same thing. Instead of saying, &#8216;um look at the world judgment creates&#8217; we decided to resort to violence and perpetuate judgment.<\/p>\n<p>We will never ever create peace with violence, NEVER. By reaching out with love we could change the world. Instead of Christians against Muslims we <b>could<\/b> learn to honor each other&#8217;s beliefs and extend love instead of judgment. That is what angels would do.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps we could learn to worship together rather than create enemies with our judgment. What a concept create friends instead of enemies! <\/p>\n<p>I was once going to write a book called Irreconcilable Similarities. If we look long enough we will find the similarities, see they are clouded by our judgment and then we can create cooperation and peace.<\/p>\n<p>But no, it would seem we would rather be right than be happy, almost every time. Our judgment <b>is<\/b> responsible for 9\/11, after all that is what created the terrorists in the first place.<\/p>\n<p>With love and aloha,<br \/>\n<i><a href=\"http:\/\/susangregg.com\/\">Susan<\/a><\/i><\/p>\n<p>Angels are everywhere just open your mind and your heart to the signs.<\/p>\n<p>Make <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/angelsonyourshoulder\/\">Angels on Your Shoulder<\/a>  part of your daily routine and share it with a friend!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What do angels, mosque at ground zero and 9\/11have in common?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,26,19,1,12,13,23],"tags":[480,29,476],"class_list":["post-477","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-angels","category-beliefs","category-communicating-with-angels","category-joy","category-kindness","category-love","category-magical-life","tag-480","tag-angels-2","tag-mosque-at-ground-zero"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.9 -
