Guilty by association

A reader wrote and said that people need to remember that we are frequently "guilty by association". Now that may not go to the extreme where a person is considered "just as bad" as a culprit, however they are colored with the same brush. The reasons are many. They range from "why aren't you teaching the culprit better actions" to "why do you want to hang around with someone who does those things, you must condone them or do them too". The reader said that when he sees a person socializing with someone he knows is a problem in the spiritual community, he is very careful what he says and does around that person.

The Universe is in the process of sorting out groups, but don't wait for the Universe to do it. You may miss out on a good and valuable relationship because people are assuming you are like a person that you are seen with. Sometimes we are not aware that our associates are not such great people, however when we find out, it is time to fade out or run away, depending on the state of what is going on.

I recently had someone say they trusted a person's words, as the person was 100% Native American.......First of all, Native American's are humans, just like any human, most can be trusted and some cannot. Secondly, this person has a very small amount of NA in them. It doesn't matter what your blood is, it matters where your soul is.

Another friend chimed in with "He/she is an apple". That was a new one on me. I said "HUH?" They told me," an apple, meaning red on the outside and white on the inside". (I love it!) They then went on to say, I prefer people, no matter what color that are truly red on the inside.

Be careful of assumptions, and check out what people say and do. Appearances can fool you in both ways, good and bad. Make sure that you are not being mislead or in "Bad company". Make sure you are not "guilty by association".
