Qualifications(and how they play a role in life)Do you qualify? In this day and age where standards and qualifications seem to mean so much to anyone seeking employment, hiring an employee, reaching for opportunities in such a competitive environment one must ask this very question. But the true contemplative will ponder further. Who says I qualify, or why do I believe I qualify? You say, “I have earned my right and privilege”, or “I have put in my time.” The disappointment may come when you are booted for another who appears to have more qualifications than you do. Maybe you are unaware that the choice made was better for all concerned and yet you hang on to the nagging feeling of disappointment or anger associated with that choice. Just this evening I watched a movie that has been out for a couple of years that brought this point home. But in the movie the characters did not show upset so much as a desire for cooperation. You may have seen the movie of the nymph found in the swimming pool, who before reaching her final destiny had to be the catalyst for several events to unfold that taught a true lesson in ‘qualifications’. The landlord who gathered all those he thought to be qualified to play their respected parts, found in the end that the choices he had made did not turn out to be the needed matrix of gifts or qualifications lying dormant in each individual. But the end result demonstrated that team work paid off. There were great difficulties to muddle through, yet joy and light prevailed. It is this kind of movie that moves me greatly and leads me to ponder in my own life what truly qualifies anyone at any given moment to be ‘the one’ to carry out any given task or assignment. This type of theme is found in much literature and spiritual work, including the Bible. If at any given point in time one feels resentment at having not been considered as a candidate with qualifications for a particular task at hand, one must step back and become all the wiser and control that emotion or overcome it at best. The lesson here is that team work plays an integral part in that which is for the best of all concerned. The truly useful idea or intent is an orientation towards service. This will be implemented in the work place as well as home environment. All relationships will benefit from the contemplation of this notion and ideal. Do you feel that you too will experience the benefit of the inclusiveness that comes from team work and service? Consider and ponder the implications if you will. I do not consider myself a good example of all I have just relayed to you. I wonder how I might respond in situations that would require such needed team work and service. And yet we are all tested to some degree daily, however slight, in this regard. How will you respond when you are given the opportunity to prove yourself as a team participant, rather than a ‘qualified’ leader? You might just be surprised at the end result.http://www.helium.com/users/211588About meSteve Filkins is a resident in Oklahoma City.

"Malcolm, your fear mongering once again, don't you have anything positive to post to people. this kind of stuff creates Fear and the Cabal feeds off of Fear. This is supposed to be a spiritual site but your blogs always promote Fear, Wake up. Adonai"
