What Man Means for Evil... God Uses for Good (Originally Published 10/15/2021)


Whenever I walk along a beach, I bring a small plastic bag to collect the garbage that seems to accumulate at the end of rolling ocean waves. Collecting trash helps me feel like I’m karmically balancing a time in my younger days where I was unconscious and ignorant in respecting the beauty and abundance of our planet.


On one beach walk I came across a high-top tennis shoe that had become a sanctuary for a family of mini-clams. Seeing that garbage shoe filled with life reminded of my favorite philosophical mantra: what man means for evil; God uses for good. This particular philosophical mantra has helped me to accept the things I cannot change such as the horrors of 9/11.


The statement “what man means for evil; God uses for good” is a “refresher” statement that jogs my psyche to replace my judgmental thoughts about other people, cultures, company’s products with the statement “it’s all good.”  If one looks at something and doesn’t have light-filled thoughts about it, one’s “judgement” quotient is off-balance and most likely needs a conscious change tweak. Here’s an example of what I mean.


I recently had lunch at my neighbor’s house. We live at different ends of a well-travelled boating river. Recently I commented to my husband after seeing two different boats being captained by African Americans how nice it is to see racial diversity “as far as boaters go on the river.” I never have understood why boating didn’t host a more racially diversified demographic.


My neighbor commented at our luncheon that she is considering selling her house because the neighborhood was becoming “ghetto”. I was flabbergasted and awaited her explanation. Her take that there are all these black boaters who are playing loud “ghetto-type” music on the river causing the neighborhood to go bad. I almost fell out of my chair. My white neighbor across the street has been playing “ghetto music” loudly most Saturday nights for years. White boaters pass by our house playing various types of loud music all day long.


Same sighting. Two different judgments. I would (and did) suggest that my neighbor needs to revamp her judgement skills.


Back to the tennis shoe in the sand. The person I was with when I spotted the clam “condo site” was disgusted by the garbage on the beach. I think the mini clams would disagree.


AFFIRMATION: My judgements are all light-filled.
