I had recently asked H.S. to show me why I felt anger at a friend.
The insight was that my anger was at myself, projected out on her for not accepting the “truth.”
It is my own anger for not wanting to wake up, the denial of perfect Love, the denial of what I am as God created me. If I am disappointed, I project that on some other body; they’re not worthy, not deserving because they just wallow in the dreaming of “this happened to me.”
I project this because I don’t want to accept that I am doing this—my thoughts are making my “reality.”
My thoughts are making the dream images that only show what my wrong mind wants to see. Or what the wrong mind wants to be real. ~~ If I want to be free of wrong mind, I need to give up attack thoughts.
WB lesson 151, ¶ 6 & 7
The witnesses the ego sends to prove to you its evil is your own are false, and speak with certainty of what they do not know. ….you must learn to doubt their evidence ……and let the Voice of God alone be Judge of what is worthy of your own belief. He recognizes only what God loves …..
And therein do all the ego’s dreams of what you are vanish before the truth.

God cannot be incomplete. Therefore, I have not left my Source. I did not make my self. I am whole, perfect, complete thought in the Mind of All That Is.
Nothing here is as it seems. Dreams are not solid or tangible. The world you “see” but reflects the idea that you are alone, separate from all, and made to endure the unkindness of an uncaring world.
Yet none of this story is truth. You are not now, nor have ever been alone. You lack in no way. Perfect Love created you, and this is what you would find by looking within and going past all the empty props made by a sick mind. What never happened can have no effects.
Your holiness (wholeness) is guaranteed by God. Your perfect sinlessness had never been thwarted nor changed in the slightest by insane thoughts of a frightened mind. In truth you remain as Love created you. Love will never change It’s Mind about you, It knows you as you are.
The ego mind does not want me discover the Love within—my holy Mind. For in finding that Love, knowing that Love is my Self, the ego mind is undone. So it holds tenaciously to it’s beliefs, its thoughts, its plans. Whenever I am aware of fear, I can be sure it is the ego mind blocking my way to accepting love. I need only accept H. Spirit’s help in looking at the fear, for He will never abandon me. He shows me that fear (whatever form it may take) is meaningless and that Love is the answer to everything, for Love is everything.

When Spirit asks me to choose again, it means to choose the Christ mind in me. The ego mind is only a fantasy, but if I put all my attention on its voice I think that it is real. The ego mind would maintain that it is real and the Christ mind is not. It hides its hatred beneath a face of innocence and bids me not to look within lest I find the “horror” there that I could not endure. Yet all the while I play the game of the ego mind, Holy Spirit waits in infinite patience until I choose for sanity, for Love, for peace.
I have allowed the ego mind and its world to take the place of my true mind and Heaven. (And this need not be.) I am learning that this is not happiness, it is not what I truly want.
My only function here is to give every thought to H. Spirit. My function is to give up all my false thoughts, so that truth is welcomed in my mind. I do not have to effort or force this, it is a gentle letting go, the continual practice of turning every thought over to my Inner Teacher/Guide, Who makes the correction and purifies the dark thought removing all that is false.
I choose again. I choose my holy mind, the Christ mind; that is my happiness, the truth in me.

WB lesson 71
Only God’s plan for happiness will work.
I have been given the method to gain the goal, but as long as I choose something else I will not be happy. When will I surrender my attempts of “getting” happiness? My methods have failed repeatably and will never succeed.
Letting go of all I think I know is the only way out of the fruitless attempts. What I have taught myself is only the opposite of truth. I never left Heaven, never harmed my Father or His Son, and only remain as Love created me.
WB lesson 72
Holding unhappiness is an attack on God’s plan for happiness.
Each unhappy thought insists that the body is real. Each forgiving thought shows me that dream images are not real.
¶9~~The light of truth is in us, where it was placed by God.
To recognize the light of truth in us is to recognize ourselves as we are. To see our Self as separate from the body is to end the attack on God’s plan for salvation [happiness], and to accept it instead. And wherever His plan is accepted it is accomplished already.

I am willing to let go my past decisions.
I am willing to see differently.
I am willing to receive the truth.
I remember I do not know what anything is for.
I remember my Guide will share with me all He knows for me.
I remember I am safe in the Mind of Love.
T.10.IV. ¶4, what stood out to me:
The Laws of God work only for your good, and there are no other laws beside His.
Everything that is not under them does not exist.
God’s laws will keep your mind at peace because peace is His Will, and His laws are established to uphold it [peace]. (italics mine)
