In response to k, I've read so many of your post lately that I felt the need to create an account to respond. May I suggest Wayne Dyer's book; he explains about choosing our life lesson, our family etc. so that we can experience particular lessons. I agree a 3 yr old may not create, but your soul is hardly that old. And the messages on this board are so full of sorrow, anger and rage that even if you are at peace in a moment in your life, the energy put out previously, can't help but come back. It's hard work to explore our pain, and its hard work to forgive those who have hurt us, but when we can get to a place where we see ,they are only doing what we asked of them, prior to coming here; then it becomes easier to thank them, forgive and move on with our lives. But forgiveness comes in layers, because hurt happens in layers. Radical Forgiveness is a great book to help with that process. I relate to your pain and its taken me 7 very serious years of exploration to understand this, but as you fight the truths you hear, perhaps you know some of it to be your truth? Bless you -

K, while it is true that we choose our lives for the lessons we need to learn, because of the nature of the physical world old energies sometimes lodge themselves within our energy field, even though we no longer need the lesson that was being taught. These old energies can often hang around our entire life and be very difficult to get rid of. They are in a very real sense wounds that do not heal, and they can make it very hard for us to live a normal life.

I usually do not push the benefits of Reiki when I post on this board, because for one thing it seems a little too self serving. But you might want to find an experienced Reiki healer and have a few Reiki healing sessions. Reiki is a very loving energy that can heal old wounds and blockages. It may take several sessions, or it may all happen at once, but a skillful practitioner may be able to help you.

I have a guided meditation that I use with some clients while giving them Reiki. It is designed to open the heart chakra and release old injuries into the Light. The combination of the Reiki energy and the meditation is very powerful and the sessions can be very emotional. I published it in the anthology “Perspectives on Ascension” and I freely offer it to anyone who wants to use it.

As the channeled post from Archangel Uriel says, we do not have to suffer.

To k and others: This is the dilemma of 3D. We know joy and suffering because there is polarity. Joy is not a permanent fixture unless you are a totally enlightened spiritual being - and I'm not even sure about then. When someone tries to upset my personal sense of serenity, I'm very aware that that person is usually coming from fear, anger, intolerance, etc. I don't need to respond towards them as they are acting towards me. I also know that not everyone has reached this level of awareness. The trick is to stay focused within your own heart. Let your heart guide your thinking, and try not to allow yourself to throw out emotionally charged words based upon your thoughts.

I work in a large corporation, and some days I would swear that co-workers are having a contest just to see if they can upset my equilibrium. I don't belittle, put-down, or swear at people, but I will say the truth when it needs to be spoken. I see God in others, and I laugh a lot. If someone else wants to have a bad day, there is really nothing I can do to stop them. I accept what is and just smile.

to k, good so see you exploring the archievs that remain, but it is not your truth, only a rehersal and rewrite of another's...all good to ponder. What I want to say is this, I see you are externalizing the concept of God. We are all part and particles of God. (words are only a glimmer of what is described- concerining the concept of God). It is you, you must learn to love and trust as you do God. Perhaps you co-created that suffering; understanding our part in the passion drama includes embracing our power, releasing the fear and unknowing. "All these things, yea shall also do" is a stament of "channeled" information from the Ascended Master we call Jesus. The darkness is part of the divinity, something that cannot harm you, with only the light of one candle. Astrology and many of the road maps are no longer applicable or necessary. Let it be. Every question you have, you also have the answer...it is within and it is not complicated...unconditional love. Your self love is tied up in conditions you are exerting on yourself, a kind of penance, it seems to me. Let it go; seek joy.
