Desirings and Choices

If different "desirings"   characterize the four dynamics, so do our choices.

Therese of Lisieux decided during her dying from tuberculosis, not to despair,
a decision that could hardly have come from any dynamic but
the Christlife of her beloved Jesus.

Gandhi chose not to accept Jesus Christ. His nobility and the depth of his life for others
grew from his humanism

Adolph Hitler ended his descent into the dark by a suicide
which seems a consequence of the chain of choices he made for evil..

Habits of thinking and doing.
Habits are sometimes peculiar to one dynamic,
for we do not change our minds daily or weekly or even annually;
we adopt a perspective and a way of perceiving
and grow accustomed to wanting this or that,,,,,,and stay with it !

A habit of prayer does not arise out of the dark.

The habit of easy living could arise out of sarx
connected as it is to convenience and immaturity.

The habit of vicious lying seems to belong to the dynamic
of the one whom John's Gospel calls "the Liar".

You engage in your actions because you want to,
and you keep wanting what you want
within the context you have chosen !

Your perspective has settled,
and the way you perceive and value things and people,
has become part of your self !
