I gave myself the treat tonight of going to a movie, the title is: “Something’s Gotta Give.”
The following are the thoughts that came to me as I arrived home.
The message is, I’ve got to loosen up….Life loves me, and I don’t even realize it… cause I think I have to “protect” myself.
There’s nothing here to protect, it’s just a silly dream, that doesn’t mean anything. Just a dream that I’ve mistaken for Life… only Life asks me to wake up and accept Love, accept that Life loves me, and Love wants perfect happiness for me. Perfect happiness…. I have no concept what happiness is… so what am I waiting for? What kind of “sign” do I need ??
Just to loosen up and let go….. let go of what I think is real.
Do I think that other bodies are real?
Do I think that washing dishes is real?
Do I think that typing at a keyboard is real?
Do I think that driving my car is real?
Oh yes, and more I think is real, for that is what I have taught myself to believe. Now is the time to listen to another Teacher, not the one I made up.
Now is the time, to seek the truth and receive the truth, as only Love can present, with the Teacher that knows that Love is real.
Do I want the truth? Will I accept the truth in place of foolish images and stories that I have made for my dream? Am I willing to let them go for something unlike I have ever dreamed?? Am I willing to let go of the fantasies and dream images that keep me “company?” Am I willing to admit that I am wrong in my choices, wrong in my wants and needs? I am wrong in everything as I have put the meaning on everything I see. Is this what I really want to see? Is this what I really want to be?
If I am afraid, then I am thinking that something in the dream can hurt me. I think that some “one” can hurt me, by taking love or approval away from me, that I can lose something that I need. I have forgotten that only Love gives, and only Love gives Love. Therefore, no one can harm me, nor take love away from me. It is only a foolish idea that says I could lose Love, for Love is eternal, and ever present with me. There is no separation from Love, yet I have made the mistake of thinking that the separation is very real. My belief makes it appear that separation has happened, and guilt makes it seem that there is no turning back, no return to Love. But in fact, I have never left Love, and my brothers have never left Love. Love is omnipresent, and wholly inclusive, No one is out side of Love. That is the impossible dream. I have made up an impossible dream, and taken it as real.
Let me change, Dear Father, let me change right now. Let me change my mind now. Let me give up the insane images, and dream of being separate. Let me remember the truth, and my true Identity. Let me remember that You are my Father, and that only Love is real; that Love is all I am or ever will be, or have ever been. Help me to let go of the lessons I have taught myself so wrongly. They do not help me now, they only prolong the dream, and this dream I do not want. It does not bring me happiness. This dream I do not want,
“What is salvation, Father? Tell me that I may know.”
