A Fact Of Life That Few People Really Understand

The only way to transform, to make the changes you say you want to make is to come to terms with what you believe about yourself. Then once you come to terms with what you believe the next step is to unlearn what you have learned. Understanding your experience in life may not have been aligned with The Truth of Life initially but appreciating, It Was What Happened is a necessary first step.
The concept is very simple. But at the same time very hard to do. After all, you depend on what you have learned about yourself from the world around you. That much is true, the problem with this whole thing is: not a lot of all this experience that happened was based in truth.
As you go through the process of unlearning ... things begin to happen ... things change. Your faith returns to you, that is, you have the ability to put it to use in the rituals of your dailyness ... this is not about Church and God, it is solely about perception ... actually about how I am looking and not necessarily what I am seeing.
Faith is a tool not an occupation nor vocation.
The same is true for your sense of self. As this grows your sense power increases. You are able to meet your own needs more readily... The Dependency On False Beliefs Diminishes Over Time.
As you recover the energy you have invested in false beliefs and their related systems and in defense strategies that once were a Godsend but now are debilitating ... you can invest that energy forward in your life and into your creativity ... you can become a co creator with the Creator.

So perfect in its pain


utter all absorbing soulful pain

unimaginable sadness

effusive gut wrenching sorrow

So perfect in its pain

that I cannot help but see it as a strange and unlikely part of heaven itself.

This Came In This Mornings Email ... Pass It On


Concentrate on this Sentence 


'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He's not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. 


Concentrate on this Sentence... 
'The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.' 






There comes a point in your life when you realize: 


Who matters, 
Who never did, 
Who won't any more... 
And who always will. 
So, don't worry about people from your past, 
there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future.

At The First Awakening of My Soul

When we first awaken into spirit, one eye opens and then it sees.  It sees pain, it sees happiness, it sees injustice and fairness, it sees good fortune and bad, and for a period of time what it sees is overwhelming. Each of us comes with a built in remedy; this onboard system is designed to cushion the load of First Sight.  It’s called the Ego. 

The Ego:

o       has a job.
o       defines everything for us.
o       fits things into slots.
o       claims to understand things, that if you really think about it, aren't really so understandable. Note, we feel safer when we think we understand something. 
o       sets up our belief and disbelief systems.  They are separate systems and the latter is probably more powerful then the first.
o       sets out how we can get those childhood dependency needs met—the needs that in a perfect world would have been met in childhood—  away back when we were supposed to be properly dependent upon properly dependable people. 
o       becomes our sword and shield.
Over time as the Ego evolves it generally sets into motion a series of events or a set of circumstances that bring us back to our unfinished spiritual business.  It does this because it believes it Knows, and this appearing to Know seems to be accidental. This is referred to as the coincidence of Karma
Hierarchy of Needs

On Even Days --- On ODD DAYS

On Even Days consider the following using the guidelines that are suggested.
·                    So why do I do what I do?
·                    Now as I consider why it is that I do what I do ...
 Know This!
·                    Every step toward understanding why I do what I do loosens the grip of my conditioned experience(s) and its resultant fear, has on my consciousness. 
·                    With each new insight, I will gain a glimpse of what creation really is. 
·                    Each glimpse increases my creative power until the balance between my mind and my ego is tipped in favour of my mind. 
·                    When that happens, progress is rapid indeed.
On ODD DAYS take your consideration to Three Axioms ... Two Observations With Actions ... And a Hint ...
Three Axioms ...
·                    Before you can be willing to allow the forgiveness of yourself or of others, you must identify the purpose their guilt or anger serves for you and the reasons why you believe it is in your best interest to maintain this vision. 
·                    Before you can be willing to forgive the world, you must become aware of the reasons you believe it is to your advantage to think of it as a dangerous place to be. 
·                    And, before you can enjoy unlimited abundance, you must see why you believe it serves you to think of creation as limited.
Two Observations With Actions ...
·                    When you notice the Ego’s demands ... refuse to act on them ...
·                    Know this, those demands will become louder and more specific ...  still refuse to act on them. 
And a Hint ...
·                    When you begin to see the beliefs behind the ego’s demands, you may be willing to give them over to the Spirit for healing.

The most important thing I have learned thus far is on this journey called life is

When I come to the end of My Known Universe. 

When I come to the end where the light stops shining for me.  

It is from this point on that I have to be a risk taker.  

I have to go blindly off into something or some place I have never been or seen before.   

Of course the alternative is also possible.  I can shrink away from moving forward - I can shrink away from exploring God's Gift ...

What I have discovered is: when I step off into the darkness, it is the darkness of my unknown; it is here and only her that I grow ... it is then that I come to know ... it is then that I notice the light ... I am in it.

God will either 
Provide something solid for me to stand on 
When I step out into My Unknown
or
I will be both taught how to build the wings
And fly on the way down

The Mythical Full-Length Mirror of Self


Each of us, in turn, must go to a place and stand in front of The Mythical Full-Length Mirror of Self, if we are in fact to heal. It is a place where we come to know and see probably for the first time just how much “stuff” we really carry and how it drags us down and holds us from our future. The one we were intended to have.

To Heal we must own it! And become ready to consider casting it off.
The Process of Recovery is described as Uncover, Discover and Discard.
People have to know what they are up against. Where and how we carried it, and how our sense of evil spiritedness, of not being good enough, sometimes called incubus (from the Latin: evil spirited, devil or demon.)  Things, metaphorically mostly, that most of us believe are locked down inside us and run our lives...
It locks us into our guilt, hurt, pain and shame. How this burden of guilt, hurt, pain and shame serves as the drive engine for the behaviours that we hate about ourselves.
Those behaviours we can’t seem to stop doing and the ones that are killing us, the ones, oddly enough that we are trying to give up.

Ashamed and isolated and in the middle of a world,
That is full of people who are ashamed and isolated too,
Just like me and too terrified to admit it.

So now the opportunity sits here before me,
An opportunity both figuratively and literally,
To do something for the first time,
That is constructive,
About the state of my being.
