What if you were to put
an ugly frame around a pretty picture?
Would that frame
make your picture
seem PRETTIER in comparison
or UGLIER by association?
Always remember that
every moment frames the next.
What you are thinking
what you are doing
how you are feeling
right now
is framed up
by what you thought
what you did
how you felt
a minute ago
yesterday
and the week before that
and the year before that
and the lifetime before that.
What you lay on
those around you,
what’s been lain on you,
this is what makes you
what you appear to be.
You do this to yourself,
your friends,
your co-workers,
your children
and the world you perceive
does it right back to you.
Be aware of your frame
be aware of who you frame
be aware of what you are framing.
Think about how
you got into the frame
you’re wearing right now.
Once you are aware,
you have the option
of changing your frame.
And even if your present picture
seems the same within this frame,
you are ALREADY painting the next.
And the NEXT picture
will frame the picture after that
and so on.
You can either frame your own perceptions
or BE framed your entire life.

Every thought, action, and emotion creates a frame that influences how we perceive the next moment and shapes the overall narrative of our lives.
Just as a frame can enhance or detract from a picture’s beauty, the way we perceive and interpret our experiences can color our perception of the present and future. Being aware of the frames we create for ourselves and others empowers us to choose the lenses through which we view life.
The awareness of our own frames gives us the opportunity to reflect, introspect, and consciously shape our perspectives and responses. By understanding the frames we wear and how they were formed, we gain insight into the conditioning and experiences that have shaped our current reality.
As co-creators of our lives, we have the power to change our frames, allowing us to alter the narrative of our journey. Through conscious choice and self-awareness, we paint new pictures of possibilities and pave the way for a more meaningful and fulfilling path ahead.
Thank you for sharing this timeless wisdom from July 28, 2016. Let us continue to frame our moments with intention and create the beautiful tapestry of our existence.
