The material presented
here is not Al-Anon Conference Approved Literature. It is a method
to exchange
information, ideas, feelings, problems and solutions on a personal
level.
Molecularly science tells us, we are all the same. The same molecules that make up the table & chair, are also the tree, the universe & a human being - just in different "arrangements".
They say we are made in God's image: I believe this to mean that we have the power of creation & choice. We are unlimited possibilities, potential for anything. They say we use maybe 10% of our brains @ most... just think of what we could do if we could use our whole mind or even a half, a 1/4.
It is said that the faith of a mustard seed can move mountains. What's that, a large grain of sand (sized)? It is my belief that God is the essence or the impetus behind the universe & behind spirit. To me HP, God, the (mystical) "trinity", light (enlightenment), love it is all the same thing, it is all the same energy.
Any part of me that is of use, worth or value is that spark of creation that is life itself. God is a blaze. How else could any of us explain love, other than it is a gift of God... truth is truth when you hear it, it resonates.
Giving myself love first - which is SO NEW for me to experience... maybe I have been doing it now for a month. 1st is was a glint, then a glimmer, then a flicker & now it's turned into a flame.
Since we reflect each other, the more love we have, the more we have to give, the more we have to receive, the more we have to give ad infinitum....
It is exponential - that is a law of cause & effect or karma or what we sow, we reap ten-fold. I would rather be positive than negative. But I realize this dichotomy - the positive-negative forces are what hold the molecules together. I imagine we eventually breakdown or divide until we surpass the need for the physical realm & we do become pure light.
Until that point... our minds are like radio receivers... they pick up "stations" & we start repeatting things in our heads. When I was with my addict, his sick thinking & constant negative talking, made me begin to go crazy, in the sickest form of the word... I was not serene, I was not even living, as I was feeding my parasite. He used me like a host to draw my life-force, love, energy out of me. Truly a psychic vampire. And I wanted to escape that pain SO much, since I wasn't living, I did feel like I wanted to die - I wanted peace & to go back to God.
Well, I didn't have to have a death to go back to God - I DID have to lose myself (completely) to find myself again... but it worked.
Yesterday my therapist said when we don't forgive (which is a part of god-love) we are actually blocking love/God in our own lives & the person we are resenting or unforgiving. She sd, when we block God (in this way) we block the wrath of God & HP's Divine Plan.
Everything happens in God's time. I am grateful I have a voice. I used to have a boyfriend that would tell me one person can't do anything/change the world. How incorrect was/is that?
A song, a painting, a book.
One person can do a lot!

Itsn't it great that we can all connect for a cause and support each other yet have different belief systems? I think that is wonderful! (((((kitty))) cdb :)
