Must you take everything to heart as you do? Have you not had enough emotion? Do you have to be so disappointed in daily life? Disappointment wrangles your life out of proportion. Your heart sinks. You may have lost your faith in individuals or, even, the world at large and at Life itself and, alas, your faith in yourself. You are disheartened. Hurt feelings may preoccupy you. Hurt feelings are not to be the food of life. You are not to accept hurt feelings as your lot in life.

Soon enough, you will see that the major dramas that zap you are simply occurrences that steal your energy. You exaggerate. All the aggravations that assail you don't begin to be worth all the emotion you pour into them. It is almost as if you have decided to choose to matriculate in a curriculum of damaged feelings. Enough over-reacting.

Tomorrow, when your emotion fades, you see clearly that the energy you gave to today wasn't worth the woe and effort you gave to it, not by a long shot. The incidents yesterday weren’t the big deal you had thought. They were not the emergencies you had imagined. You see this now.

Yet your attention may latch onto another personal emergency as if there were no tomorrow. Life emerges. All this comes with the territory. The territory is Life. Would you major in emergency and urgency instead of love?

“Through our eyes, the universe is perceiving itself. Through our ears, the universe is listening to its harmonies. We are the witnesses through which the universe becomes conscious of its glory, of its magnificence.” – Alan Watts

“You are not IN the universe, you ARE the universe, an intrinsic part of it. Ultimately you are not a person, but a focal point where the universe is becoming conscious of itself. What an amazing miracle.” – Eckhart Tolle

Our Responsibility Since Creation

Ancient wisdom holds that humans were created to be the caretakers of the Earth. We were placed here on this planet in order to care for its plants and animals, to protect its natural beauty, to show respect and gratitude for all the abundance that the Earth gives us every day.

You will, on occasion, forget who you really are. When this happens, remember that it is only temporary. Returning to your center is inevitable. ~ Creator

If you can embrace your divine capability, and recognize, encourage, and support the divine capability of others, you will be in a place that will always grow and expand, accept and allow, serve and uplift, create and thrive. This is the key to evolving beyond victim consciousness once and for all. ~Archangel Gabriel

Baggage you carry with you is one thing. The concept of karma in the world is another. The difference may be subtle, yet the difference is momentous.

Yes, you may keep carting baggage from the past. Why would you keep dragging the past along with you on your next journey? You are smarter than that. Why would you go to all that trouble. For Heaven's sakes, why would I?

I wouldn't.

Do I teach you that you are a hapless victim of the past, that karma is your pay-pack, that retribution coming back to you to haunt you, that the past won't let you start over fresh, that the past follows you, even chases you, that you can't escape it, that a deed the person you once were committed is now marked on your back with a skull and crossbones, that, tut tut, that you can't do anything about leaving the past but to face the music?

Regarding this theory of karma, no one minds the karma of good deeds that you don't remember yet are considered responsible for. This is a horse of a different color!

By and large, karma is thought of as consequences for regrettable behavior. You may be an entirely wiser person now, yet somehow, still your hands are slapped from the past. If you were unkind to someone, one way or another, someone will hand you back the unkindness you gave even millenia ago. Tit for tat. That's it. There is nothing you can do about it. You earned this karma, and now it's time for you to pay the piper so be good from now on cuz so you won't have to walk in fear later.
