IN THIS WORLD, THERE ARE MANY PATHS THAT LIES BEFORE US. REGARDLESS IF YOU ARE A BAPTIST, JEWISH, MUSLIM, HINDU OR A PAGAN,
ALL PATHS OF LIGHT REFLECTS SAME THEME. THAT IS LOVE AND COMPASSION. AS LIKE ANY PATH WE TAKE, THE INTERPETATION WE EACH HAVE OR UNDERSTAND
IS DIFFERENT FOR ALL US. LOVE. LOVE HAS SO MANY MEANINGS. IT IS VIEWED DIFFERENTLY BY MANY PEOPLE. MY LOVE FOR SOMEONE IS DIFFERENT, THAN THE NEXT PERSON.
THE ALL HUMAN EMOTION OF LOVE IS GREAT. THE ENERGY OF TRUE LOVE FUELS US, DRIVES US, INSPIRES US. IN EVERY PATH OF LIGHT, LOVE IS A KEY,
A BASIS FOR A FOUNDATION OF OUR HUMANNESS. YES, LOVE IS MANY THINGS TO MANY PEOPLE. THERE MANY KYNDS OF LOVE.
GOOD LOVE, BAD LOVE, BOOKS AND BOOKS HAVE BEEN WRITTEN ABOUT THIS. IT IS THIS SUBJECT I WILL NOT DELVE IN HERE.
TRUE LOVE, IS A LOVE WITHOUT CONDITIONS. IT IS A LOVE THAT IS NOT CONTROLLING OR MANUPILATED. IT IS A LOVE THAT ALLOWS US TO ACCEPT
EACH OTHER FOR WHO THEY ARE, WARTS AND ALL. A LOVE THAT SHOWS KYNDNESS FOR THE NEXT MAN OR WOMAN. IT IS A LOVE THAT IS NON JUDGMENTAL OR BIAS.
DOES THIS LOVE EXIST? ABSOLUTELY. IT IS WHAT ALL THE GREAT TEACHERS AND MASTERS BEEN TRYING TO SHOW US.
THIS LOVE IS REAL, IT ENCOMPASSES US COMPLETELY. HMMM, NOW I KNOW SOMEONE OUT THERE IS SAYING THAN WHY ARE WE SO MISERABLE??
IT IS BECAUSE OF OUR CHOICES WE MAKE. IT IS HOW WE LOOK AND PERCEIVE THINGS.
THE WAY EACH OF US PERCEIVE THINGS, HELPS US MAKE THE CHOICES IN OUR LIVES. REGARDLESS IF CHOICES ARE GOOD OR BAD, WE MAKE THEM.
OH I ADMIT I MADE ALOT BAD CHOICES IN MY LIFE. IT WAS THE RESULT OF THESE CHOICES I MADE THAT MADE ME STOP AND ASK WHY.
THAT MOMENT, YET UNDEFINED TOTALLY TO ME, CHANGED MY LIFE.
AS I SEEK THE ANSWERS I NEEDED TO UNDERSTAND, I REALIZED SOMETHING IMPORTANT. I REALIZED
I WAS MISSING SOMETHING EVERY HUMAN BEING ON THIS PLANET CRAVES AND DESIRES. TRUE LOVE.
I AM NOT TALKING ABOUT HAVING A SIGNIFICANT OTHER, I HAD MANY OF THEM, I AM TALKING ABOUT LOVE IN MY HEART.
LOVE OF LIFE. NOT JUST OF PLEASURABLE THINGS. SOMETHING DEEPER, SOMETHING THAT HAS MEANING TO IT.
IT IS THERE, IT IS WONDERFUL. IT IS RAW NAKED ENERGY.
ANYONE WHO IS STARTING OR IS ON A PATH TOWARDS LEARNING WHO THEY ARE, YOU WILL FIND THIS. EMBRACE IT, FEEL IT FLOW THRU YOUR BODY,
YOUR MYND AND YOUR SOUL. IT MAKES YOU LOOK AT THINGS DIFFERENTLY. THIS LOVE HEALS. IT HEALS WOUNDS AND SCARS OF YOUR HEART AND MYND.
TRUE LOVE IS THE BEGINNING OF UNDERSTANDING YOURSELF. YOUR PLACE AMONG THE STARS AND THE BEAUTIFUL PLANET.
THIS IS THE ROAD OF HEALING. IT STARTS WITH YOU INSIDE YOU. IT SPREADS FROM YOU TO EVERYTHING THAT IS IN YOUR LIFE.
SO HOW DO WE GO THERE?? WHERE IS THE MAP?? THE MAP IS IN US. IT IS ALWAYS BEEN IN US. IT IS ACKNOWLEDGING THE SPIRIT OF OUR SOUL, OF OUR PERSONA.
EVERY PATH OF LIGHT SAYS BE CHILDLIKE, BE INNOCENT AS THE CHILD. THERE IS SOME TRUTH THERE.
IF YOU OBSERVE A CHILD, BEFORE THEY LEARN OF THE PERCEPTIONS WE TEACH THEM OR ARE EXPOSED TO, THEY ARE INNOCENT. THEY SHARE EVERYTHING THEY HAVE WITH ANOTHER.
THEY ARE STILL TALKING TO THE INVISIBLE FRIEND. THEIR HUMAN PERSONA IS STILL CONNECTED TO THEIR SPIRITS. IT IS THIS CONNECTION THAT CONNECTS US TO A HIGHER SOURCE.
IF YOU OFFEND A CHILD, THEY ALWAYS LOVE YOU AND FORGIVE YOU. THIS IS A KEY. FORGIVENESS.
WHEN PEOPLE OFFEND US, ALOT OF TYMES WE HARBOR RESENTMENT, ILL FEELINGS ETC ETC. MAJORITY OF US KEEP IT INSIDE.
THIS IS NEGATIVE ENERGY. THIS KILLS US, IT HURT US, IT CREATES THE BROKEN CONNECTION TO OUR SPIRIT.
YES, SOMETHINGS ARE HARD TO FORGIVE. THIS I KNOW. BUT WHEN WE COME TO UNDERSTANDING OF THIS, THEN WE CAN LET IT GO. I WAS TOLD ONCE
SOMETHING THAT MADE IT SO EASY TO UNDERSTAND. I WANT YOU TO VISUALIZE THIS IF YOU CAN.
" YOUR DRIVING ALONG IN YOUR NEW CAR, ALL SHINY AND CLEAN AND POLISHED, WINDOWS DOWN, RADIO CRANKED LOUD(LIKE ME). YOU PULL UP TO THE RED LIGHT, AS YOU DO
ANOTHER CAR PULLS UP ALONG YOU. WELL, THOSE PEOPLE IN THE CAR OUT OF NOWHERE DECIDE TO THROW THEIR TRASH IN YOUR CAR, AND SPEED OFF. SO NOW YOU HAVE TWO OPTIONS, STOP, CLEAN THE TRASH OUT AND THEN GO, OR DRIVE AROUND WITH THE TRASH IN YOUR NEW CAR."
PEOPLE MIGHT SAY THINGS WE FELT HURT FROM, OR DONE THINGS TO ANGER US OR WE MIGHT EVEN PERCEIVED THINGS WRONGLY WITH OUR OWN VIEWS. REGARDLESS IF RIGHT OR WRONG, WE ALL CARRY THIS GARBAGE INSIDE OF US. RESENTMENT IS THE "VIDEO PLAYBACK" OF ANGER.
SO, IF WE LOOK CLOSELY, WE ALL BEEN WRONGED. FOR MANY YEARS. IT IS THIS STUFF WE NEED TO CLEAR OUT.
SO HOW DO WE DO THIS?? BY FORGIVING. YES, SIMPLE ISN'T IT? TO FORGIVE SOMEONE OR MANY
IS IMPORTANT. IT IS ALLOWING OURSELVES TO ACCEPT THAT FACT. IT IS ALLOWING OURSELVES TO FINALLY LET IT GO. THE FORGIVING HAS TO BE SINCERE. WHEN JESUS WAS DYING ON THE CROSS HE SAID "FORGIVE THEM FATHER FOR THEY KNOW NOT WHAT THEY ARE DOING".
IT IS TRUE, MANY PEOPLE HAVE OFFEND US, BUT NEVER KNEW THIS. WE HOLD IT IN US. IT IS THESE THINGS THAT HURT US. TO FORGIVE DOES NOT MEAN YOU FORGOT. IT MEANS TO FORGIVE.
ONE MORE THING, TO FORGIVE THOSE PEOPLE IN OUR LIVES IS VERY IMPORTANT. THE MOST IMPORTANT PERSON TO FORGIVE IS OURSELVES.
YES, OURSELVES. WE ARE OUR OWN WORST ENEMY. WE MAKE OURSELVES FEEL BAD FOR THINGS, GUILTY FOR THINGS, AND WE PUT OURSELVES DOWN.
WHEN WE LEARN ABOUT OURSELVES, WE WILL SEE THINGS THAT WILL NOT WORK FOR US, THIS MEANS CHANGING, IT CHANGES OUR VIEWS OUR LIVES,
OUR UNDERSTANDING OF OURSELVES. SO WHEN WE FORGIVE OURSELVES ALSO, THIS IS THE FIRST STEP ON THIS OF ROAD OF HEALING.
