A New Way to See

Forgiving the Dream

I had the opportunity to hear Jon Mundy speak on Saturday at Pathways of Light. I am glad that I attended. Hearing one speak of the Truth, helps me want to remember the truth myself; to give up the silly games I play of being an individual. And yet, to also forgive myself for
playing the game of separation, because God never condemned me the first place.

Forgiving myself is the reason I am “here” in a body. Forgiving myself is the freedom I receive
or recognize when I forgive someone in my dream. Forgiveness happens automatically when I realize that whatever seemed to happen, doesn’t matter. “What do you mean, it doesn’t matter?!?!” the ego screeches.

Does it matter what happens in a dream that you dream at night?
When you wake from any dream, be it pleasant or fear filled, you think: “oh, it was just a dream.” You think that is has no real effect in your life or on you.
Because I am the dreamer of my “world” I therefore set the props on the stage, I engage figures to act out the script I have written. And then I instantly forget that I am the producer and projector of this scene, or movie or soap opera. I have put every meaning to everything in this dream; I have chosen what is valuable and what is junk, what is treasure and what is trash. I have chosen who is worthy, lovable, innocent and who is hateful, unlovable, and guilty. And each plays their role accordingly. Each plays their role to perfection so that I may learn that only Love is real. That I may choose again and lay forgiveness on what I perceive. That I may seek Guidance from the One Who knows the Truth, and come to rest in His certainty.  And I surely learn that my dream or soap opera doesn’t matter, because Love sees only the love or the call for love in my dream plots.

What “matters” in my daily dream, is whether I choose to look with Spirit at the events and situations in my dream, or if I try to “fix” things on my own. Whether I accept the love that
Spirit brings forth or if I attempt to heal with the falsity of specialness.

I would rather be happy and accept the Love of Spirit, accept the grace that comes in forgiving. Then I know that what ever took place in my dream, doesn’t matter in eternity or Heaven. Heaven is where I really am, even though I pretend otherwise.
