let's begin......
We put such importance on this particular life experience. We cling to it so tightly. We have been taught to believe that this is all there is and if anything lies beyond it, the quality of it will depend on how well we did on this jaunt. We cling to it for our kids and family and people we don't even know. We see it as a tragedy that anyone even animals would withdraw there awareness from this time and space. The concept that this is just a temporary visit in a long line of visits is so foreign to us.
In this moment, contemplate your belief of what this life is. What does it mean to you? Do you drop off the end of existence if you were to meld back into the unknown? Do you fear a firey end? Most of us avoid thinking about these things for fear that we will stop breathing ourselves. Point is you won't. Point is that these beliefs that you hold, each is as different as the person thinking them, are nothing more than a string of thoughts you have collected along the way while still quite asleep. Can you even remember where you got these thoughts? Why are you holding on to them so tightly?
Now that you are waking, remember that you are eternal. I won't say that I don't feel sadness when someone I know withrdraws from physical, because I enjoy the physicalness of their company. I will say that I understand that they are very close at hand and always will be. I understand that I am very much connected to something very big and powerful and loving. When I am conscious of that connection I too experience the Love and Joy that flows from that All-That-Is-Beingness. I can feel my eternalness.
So I will ask again. What are your thoughts on your beingness? What thoughts are you holding on to very tightly? So tightly that you are unable to enjoy your experience here on planet Earth.
You are eternal and we will get to do this all again soon enough. How fun is that!!!!

For me, this was such a turning point. To understand that feelings were the way that Source/my Inner Being was communicating with me was something I had never heard before. I come from a family that was all about not showing emotion. Emotions were a sign of weakness and so on and so on. Somehow it made sense though. Why else would God have given us something that we wouldn't have a use for.
Emotions=Communication. It is how Spirit gets our attention. Makes complete sense. Once I started playing with this concept, my life changed. How the heck did I miss that one? Sometimes it gets tricky when I have a knee jerk response to something that I am not really wanting. But with some practice I have found that my feelings don't let me down. The more sensitive I get to how I feel, the better I feel in general. The better I feel the more I find my life experience bringing to me all the things I could ever hope for. Sure I still have some resistant or limiting thoughts that I want to turn around but cleaning up my emotional vibration has made all the difference
