My Thougts Do Not Mean Anything

Hello Everyone, these are the ideas that Spirit has shared with me recently:

The past is nothing. The past is made of thoughts that I have chosen. My thoughts do not mean anything. The thoughts that seem to be in my mind are nothing; they hide my real thoughts from my awareness.

I have been mistaken and mistakes are ALL forgiven. I have tried to make my dream be everything to me, to replace the inclusiveness of Love. All I seem to see and be in my dream is just a memory that I replay again and again. This memory was made from an insane thought at which I forgot to laugh. Forgetting to laugh, a sick, sad belief occupied my mind.

There is no release in holding onto thoughts that are false. The selective thoughts I hold are false, but I can choose to let them be undone. My dream of guilt does not protect me, it does preoccupy my mind. I have attempted to make an insane thought be real. I chose not to remember that the insane thought was healed the instant that it occurred. One tiny mad idea has given me a thought system that I do not want—-a dream of grief, insanity, darkness and death.

My purity has not been breached, nor has Love’s perfection been corrupted. I mistake a memory for reality, I mistake guilt as being real. I deceive my self with the thoughts I made. I think I have taken truth and locked it away in a hidden corner of my mind. When I identify with a thought of separation, I think that truth will harm me. I am willing to give up the thoughts that hurt and accept the truth of What I am.

Real thoughts are the thoughts I share with God. Loving thoughts are real thoughts. Loving thoughts share the truth. They hold the attributes of gentleness, calmness, certainty, trust, acceptance, joy and happiness. My real thoughts are in my mind and I am willing to find them.

**I (hope) that I am beginning to understand that as I have a “good” sentence come to my mind, that Spirit then offers me the unhealed mind’s perspective of that sentence. That is helping me to recognize the many ways the unhealed mind appears to handle the circumstances of the dream.
