Choosing How I Look at Things

I am grateful to choose how I look at things.

Everyone I know is grateful to choose how they look at things.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, is grateful to choose how they look at things.

——————————-

Because I choose to look at how I can serve, I am given opportunities to uplift others.

Because I look at how to expand my service, I am given opportunities for farther outreach.

Viewing life this way can cause us to look outward instead of inward.

By leaping over the crushing media influence of self-service, and by including everyone in our desire to live well, we can create a different kind of life design.

Thought moves in different patterns when it breaks the bounds of self-service.

Of course, we want everyone to live well.

When we interpret our resources differently, there is enough for all.

Focusing on our outward goal lets us receive the ideas which support it.

It is so very important to listen for the expansive ideas instead of getting caught up in the crushing lies around us.

We have every resource imaginable if we don’t talk ourselves out of it.

There is a desire to communicate and to uplift.

We are seeing this in meetings of world leaders.

We are seeing a consensus of right ways to go about a more expansive and caring view.

The contrast only highlights the upward goal more clearly.

While Hanging in the Balance

I am so grateful to remember that good action continues even while much of it is unseen.

Everyone I know is grateful to remember that good action continues even while much of it is unseen.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, is grateful to remember that good action continues even while much of it is unseen.
————————-

There is still valuable work going on while things are hanging in the balance.

While we feel the influence of public action pulling us downward, nonetheless, the human spirit likes to rise.

We seek out the higher elements, because rage and degradation and their negativity can only last as long as it can deceive.

When honesty and the longing for a better way, for upliftment and kindness and consideration, begin to take hold in the minds of so many, as they are now, movement pulls in an upward direction.

The upward direction is unlimited.

There are so many ways it can be expressed.

Everyone has access to it through ideas.

And ideas demand action.

With unified action, as awareness is beginning to dictate, the course can be changed.

It will be interesting to see the many different ways this takes place.

Another Step

I am grateful to take another step.

Everyone I know is grateful to take another step.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, is grateful to take another step.

———————-
I am grateful for the perspective on progress.

I can tell when I take another step.

I can feel the challenge of moving forward.

I am propelled by the necessity of doing so.

Staying where I am is better than the last step, but not near as good as I want it to be.

I am certainly reminded not to go backwards.

That is totally confusing.

I forget where I am now when I do that.

It is important to remember how I got here and to keep building to take the next step.

It feels better and better each time.

I just have to get used to the new place and the new techniques for staying here.

I have done that many times.

I can keep doing that.

Trust in Oneself

I am grateful to have deep trust in what I stand for.

Everyone I know is grateful to have deep trust in what they stand for.

Everyone I don’t even know all over the planet is grateful to have deep trust in what they stand for.

————————

I stand for the deep things.

The things which bring all of us together.

Despite the separateness which appears, there is a nature within all of us that is in agreement.

I trust kindness and the fact that we will all see it more widely.

I trust compassion and how a person can get addicted to generosity.

I trust the fact that the greedy will implode on themselves, since they can never have enough.

I trust that the rest of us will discover other ways of supporting one another that give back and continually increase.

I trust that we will all discover the higher law of Oneness and Care.

I trust that the balance of earth and people will be reestablished.

I trust that we will find a way through the mess.

We are all learning to listen inwardly for guidance as we lose our trust in outside things.

I trust that this is what is bringing us together in balance and prosperity and harmony.

High Ideals

I choose to listen for and to take action on high ideals.

Everyone I know chooses to listen for and to take action on high ideals.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the world, chooses to listen for and to take action on high ideals.

———————————

High ideals are what move people forward.

They express the uplifting nature of humanity.

Only where fear and its limitations are running rampant are high ideals forgotten.

With the great contrast between selfishness and greed vs. good for all, we can reeducate ourselves about the power of high ideals.

Writers, scientists, artists, economists who catch the view of a higher ideal contribute to knowledge and motives which embrace a more generous humanity.

Only by focusing on the known and limiting it to a few, can we cause fear.

Causing fear is the goal of the greedy and self-centered.

Otherwise, the wise and calm solutions which take care of everyone would be evident.

So, I go back to the high ideals.

I got back to the solutions which lift everyone up.

I see through the emotional delusions to find the peace and calm which restore us to harmony within all our communities.

Taking Myself for Granted

I am grateful to discover who I am in new ways.

Everyone I know is grateful to discover who they are in new ways.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, is grateful to discover who they are in new ways.
—————-

My life keeps expanding.

There are so many things I have always wanted to do, and I am starting to do them.

When I discover new things, I add them into my life, too.

I love new things.

I love discovering new skills.

I love how the new things that I learn fit into and expand my life.

I am no longer trying to get by, hoping just to survive.

I no longer crouch with fear in my heart, waiting for the next violation, the next punishment.

I know that look of hopelessness and numbness, despair on my two-year-old face.

It was not enchanting; it had innocence and helplessness and the numbness of fear.

But now, after a lifetime of internalizing those feelings, I am letting them out.

I am acknowledging them.

They are part of my life, which I am still making up for.

I am an adult now, and I can deal with my fears.

I can let them out; I no longer have to be numb.

The pain is a kind of rejoicing.

So that is what I was feeling so long when I would not let myself feel.

That is what was hidden, blocking all my progress.

That is what I am healing step-by-step.

I can now ask for help.

I can now do my chores for myself, not for my parents.

I am now free to live beautifully and to make beautiful things in my own art, in my own expression.
