The
Reluctant Messenger, Chapter 4: Changing Perspectives
April 25, 2014:
We say
that if humans would continue to connect with this higher Source and constantly
expand their Points of Existence, their hearts would remain open. It is the
opening of the heart that is responsible for “ease” in their lives, just as the
closing of the heart is responsible for dis-ease.
I had already learned the
connection between ease and dis-ease. Repeated blockages (dis-ease) in our
energy bodies lay the foundation for disease to manifest. By becoming flow-ers
of energy, we could maintain states of ease and equilibrium that would allow a
natural flow of life’s energy through us.
The key to maintaining
life’s flow is through keeping the heart opened. As we learn to live beyond our
limited PoE, heart energy expands. We become part of the field of overlapping
PoEs, and we begin to sense universal connections. We realize we are never
alone; we are part of everything.
In this state of oneness,
as our energy frequencies change to higher vibrations, we attract more of the
same. We love, and we feel loved. We see things in a different light, and we
appreciate our surroundings more than before because we are an integral part of
all that is. We are open and receptive, willing to accept other perspectives as
the next section on forgiveness demonstrates.
The above excerpt is from The
Reluctant Messenger. This chapter, Changing Perspectives,
helped me to understand the importance of stopping, taking a deep breath, then
intentionally changing the way I perceive things.
Years ago I read that pain
is part of the human condition, but suffering is an option. How true this is.
If we can begin the practice of distancing ourselves from the root of the pain,
we can begin to view things from greater perspective. A dear friend of
mine, Dr. Laurin Bellg, used to always ask, "What's the lesson? Where's the gift?" whenever she was
presented with a challenge. I try to endorse that as my mantra when life seems
to throw me a curve ball. To answer the question, I am forced to step out of
the role of victim where something unpleasant is happening to me.
Instead, I step on a higher path--the path of observer.
Learning to ask about the
lesson can be the first step to a brighter future!
