What If?

What if you woke up tomorrow morning and looked online and there was $1,000,000 in your bank account. What would be your first reaction? Then what would be your reaction after that?

When the bank assures you that there is no mistake, that the transaction and the paperwork are legitimate and the money is indeed yours, how would you feel? And how would you feel after that?

The feelings you might have are something like the feelings you could have when you Know that things are different now. When you Know that amazing light is pouring in here and you can bask in it and experience its astounding effects if you want to.

What if you woke up tomorrow morning and realized for sure that with all the problems around..with all the doubt, pressure, expectation, limitation, untruth, anger, resentment, aggression, self-pity and fear..that with all that, you are not bound by any of it. Defies credulity! But there it is, and how would you feel about it?

How would it be to feel like that more often, and then more often.

If while reading this you have felt something good, you get it. Some part of you understands exactly what is being referred to, though words can't quite describe it.

Extend what you have felt. Extend it and nurture it. At the same time imagine your good. Dare to dream your most good dream. Your feeling and imagining can move you along your path. Get familiar with feeling good. Pay attention to yourself and what happens around you when you're feeling good.

This exercise works well after you stop, look, and listen, and it works well when you are in the middle of a busy activity.

But it might take practice before you can feel good while you're in the middle of a busy activity. Such as meeting a deadline or attending to an emergency, or receiving notice that you have just lost everything.

So what to do? Take baby steps. At first do this exercise when you have some still, quiet, time. In a while - maybe a week or a month or a year - you might begin to feel at ease with your own good. You might have decided to give yourself permission to have goodness. It's at that point that you can gently, a very little bit at a time, begin to allow yourself to feel good even if you're in the middle of a maelstrom.

Love to all,
