Day 210 of 400 "Signs"

What if I told you that God is symbolic, that nature is symbolic? Would you understand what a sign or symbol meant? As we progress in our awareness it's not that the signs get harder but rather that they come at us so quickly that we have to digest more information. This is not at any cost to the individual, just their willingness to receive.

A real willingness to look within is where true power resides. And sometimes the only way that we can see where we are giving our power away is by what we see in our world. So this is not to say that you have to give up your ideas or idiology, but rather to become one with it to hear and see what it is that you've come to learn in this lifetime. Nor is it saying that you are becoming weak by looking within. What I am saying is that it's so difficult to look within that you've projected yourself outside of yourself. It doesn't matter whether you believe in this or not, just listen to your heart.

I'm going to give you an example of how this works. This is in our book by the way so you'll have something to look over later.

While getting gas yesterday I was behind this young man. Even though we were both done this truck came up behind me looking to see if I was going to move, so I moved forward just a bit after the young man in front of me moved. Suddenly, he hit his breaks and flipped me off. I didn't have to my breaks because I was not moving at this point. So I moved forward to allow the truck clear passage and understanding that he didn't have to go around me. Then when both this young man and I got to the stop sign he just started driving really slow and then stopped short of the sign, there was no traffic but for whatever reason he was not happy with me. So I figured this guy had more issues then just this moment.

Now, externally it appears as though someone is being upset with me. I felt this through my body as well, but what I did was ignore him to allow him his moment in time. It wasn't until I got home with pen and paper that I wrote my story out to myself and realized what I was doing to myself. So here you go:

Flipping me off- I don't respect myself
Stopping short- I stop myself short of flow and movement
I ignored him- I ignore myself and make myself busy with doing things to pretend I don't care what's going on, while also using doing stuff to pass the time.
Driving over into his lane- I cut myself off and impede my own flow.

I know this is going to be difficult for some of you to read but this is how the Higher Mind, Lower Mind helps us to become responsible for our illusion. When we have this key we are better able to understand what we are missing in ourselves.

I don't respect myself and I stop myself short of movement when I ignore myself and make myself busy with doing everything else and pretending that I don't care about what's going on. I am staying busy hoping time will speed up. But this is only cutting me off from my flow and self.

After doing this statement I could see how I was doing this over and over and over again in my own life. I felt tired last night, divided, confused because I had cut myself off from Source. I was no longer within my heart but rather my mind.

I had taken a class earlier that day and was witnessing all kinds of imbalances and lack of flow. Even the instructor said she felt out of the flow. Students were agruing with each other and agrumentative. I'd not witness this much distaste in a group of people in a long time. Then it hit me like a lead balloon....someone needed to change their shirt for another student because they didn't like what they were wearing. I knew that by changing the shirt that it would not make any difference because it was about this person inside not what they were seeing outside of themselves.

And there it is.....I don't like what I see inside myself. But how was I going to get back home? By realizing that I've done this to myself and that it's only been me that has prevented my happiness, joy, love and light to be in a place of complete experience. That the only thing that I need to change within is loving who I've been.

Belief Statement: I just don't get why some people have to be so mean and angry in life and this makes me feel sad. I often wonder what is it in their life that makes them so hateful. I gain frustration while losing focus.

Spirit Statement: I understand I am helpful and loving this life with happiness because this life brings me joy in peace while focused.

Blessings to you all today!
