It’s not what we do, what we feel, or what we think, that makes us suffer. It’s what we identify with, what we give ourselves a hard time about. Perhaps, we are unaware that we are living with a self-imposed religion. We may not live up to our beliefs about what we “should” achieve. We may feel guilty, regretful for not meeting our own expectations. We may become our own worst critic, always trying to appease our conscience until we let go in disgust, and finally give up. We can simply live by the flow of our breath, but we end up beating ourselves into submission. We feel down and out, so in the end we have to let go anyway. In spite of all that, peace is never more than one thought away, that last one we had. We are the observer of our human story; let’s have some compassion. We came here to learn, discover the Self, and experience the creation. Let’s cut some slack by dis-identifying with the illusion “out there”. Let’s see through the illusions of time, space, living and dying. Let’s remember that we have no past to regret, or future to obsess about. We are all making it up as we go along, it’s our consciousness that evolves in a presence of possibilities. The appearances of physical “reality” reflects back to us just what we expect. We can grow through either pleasure or pain, or a cocktail of both. Is there a judge “out there” looking down on us, or are we the One, who lives with ourselves? Can we remember to check which “I” is looking, or will we default to our judge and jury? Perhaps, we are we that One who came along for the ride. Can we fall in love with ourselves, warts and all, or can we use our second Sight, not some “eye in the sky?” We are love, we are compassion and we are the One and the many.! Let’s say there is no such thing as perfect. Let's say Creator and the creation are the wind and a wave. In the big picture, we have nothing to learn, and nothing to regret. When we have everything and nothing, we have nothing to lose. We are just in the process of remembering “all that we are”. We are Creator Beings for better or worse, and whether we can see it or not. We are more than ever we imagine; we are the Self experiencing its Self. We are both Lover and loved, we are the new dawn arising, and we are Heaven on Earth. Elijah David Alchemy of the New Earth"

This article is written with passion that are carried away lofty and ungrounded to the whole. It presents the complexity of the One in a small slice. Would self love not respect the free will of the One to experience the myriad of diverse expressions of itself? Because of the free will, is the distortion or otherwise the contrast in each experience possible. The writing from my view would been fare more authentic and powerful, written in the first person. Is not the I and I am the gift of language that expresses the innate Creator ability? Using I and I am my life ist sparked by creative forces. This article has a missionary touch yet well hidden within the passion to change the world.
