First off I'd like to thank my girlfriend for introducing me to this wonderful eMeditation Message! And then another thank you goes out to Vic Johnson for creating and sharing these beautiful messages!
"People do not attract that which they want, but that which they are." - As A Man ThinkethCredit goes out to: AsAManThinketh.net http://www.asamanthinketh.net/
To put it another way: When you stop working on what it is you're trying to get, and start working on YOU, only then will you get what it is you want.

Now for my 2-cent....
Life is all about the journey. The journey includes
experiences and these experiences infiltrate our thought process and create
"beliefs".
For example: I believe that when I touch a pot with boiling hot water I will get hurt / pain. This thought process comes to mind either because you've experienced it; seen it; or were thought it.
The same goes for "visuals". I believe "fat | out of shape" people are {insert your beliefs here} <-- and then ask yourself "why" do you think that?
Whatever the case maybe, remember that WE can't change anyone else but ourselves.
And if there's something external to us (something we feel, see, or do) that triggers things inside us (good OR bad) all we can do is ask ourselves: "Why do I believe this to be true (or not true)?"
Whenever we question our belief system, we challenge our thoughts to "do some work".
And when our thoughts are... working... this is where/when we tend to allow new-changes (thought processes; ways to view things; understand things; see things differently) to be presented to us.

- Could it be because "society" made you believe this?
- Could you believe this because 'someone' told you something about people (like that) and it made you feel a certain way and so you don't want anyone else to "view" you the way that person made you feel?
- Could it be that when you "pick out" certain people who "match" your perception of that belief - it triggers an emotion inside you? (Makes you feel vulnerable? Makes you feel weak? Strikes a chord with childhood memories.... Maybe something an adult said (when you were a child) that you never forgot or really understood...)

So ask yourself:
What is it that I’m trying to “be” and why?
And then… stop “wanting” to be it,
and just “be” it.
Remove YOUR Desire and Replace it with
Fire!
