THE WORLD - IN YOUR MIND

I’ve been told that if you change your mind, you change the world – or at least the way you experience it. Let’s take a moment to examine it.

The presumption is, if you thought the world was a hostile, ugly place filled with awful people doing awful things, that is what you’d see.Your mind would naturally seek out confirmation for its preconceived ideas (e.g. if you’re intent on buying a red car, as you go about your day you’ll see lots of red cars).

 If, however, you were able to sincerely change your mind and see that we are all God in drag, that we are the conscious aspects of a perfect universe (by God) which had to create us so we could bear witness and stand in awe of its loving magnificence, then that is the soul-shaking reality you’d be greeted with each and every moment of each and every day.

In other words, it is entirely our choice as to what kind of world we live in.

With a simple decision, we can suffer in the darkness or play in the light. We can be angry, frightened and enslaved or loving, joyous and free.

I know. It’s a toughie.
