It's All Perfect, And So Are You
(cont'd)
This week's energy work. Make a list of everything you think is imperfect in your life. Don't be judgmental or critical, just write down everything you think is wrong with your life and how it is or isn't working. Then, when you have written it all down, next to each one write down how you can change it, starting each sentence with "It is perfect that I now am/have _________ and I now move it into a new state of perfection by ______." For example, if you wrote that you love life is imperfect, write down "The love life I now have is perfect and I can change it by being willing to give and receive love now." Do this exercise thoughtfully and take your time because as you claim perfection in your life, you also acknowledge your power to create something different.
YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE
Do you remember a time in your life when a certain person came into your life, and changed your whole world or belief system? For all you know, they might have touched your life in a way that sent you in whole new direction on your spiritual path. Also, when people touch each other’s lives, they may never realize how the impact of that one interaction affects many other lives.
How can you touch another’s life in a positive way and why would you want to? Because I believe that’s what being a spiritual being in human form is all about. It’s about embracing life and living as a soul. It’s about learning, growing, loving, sharing, and constantly evolving with the time we have here.
Helping another creates a ripple effect that will touch more people than you’ll ever know. I helped an elderly woman the other day at the supermarket and she looked at me as if she was in shock that someone actually took the time to help her. She told me that she’d had such an emotional day, that my helping her gave her the boost that she needed. Maybe she passed on that positive attitude when she got home and someone else benefited. A simple act from an unexpected person, a stranger, and even children who are truly our best teachers can touch our lives in positive ways. Such acts nourish us with courage, hope, inspiration, strength, and often times direction. By touching lives – you’re touching miracles.Sometimes, I know how hard it is to help someone else when you feel you cannot even help yourself. Doing so really does soothe your soul. Try it. As we are all unique, you’ll have a way to touch someone’s life in a way that may be totally different to someone else. Touching another life in a positive way is a personal thing, and it doesn’t have to be something big – even a smile can move a mountain.
Sometimes it just comes to you or it
could be as simple as a spontaneous kind gesture.
All I’m asking is to be conscious of helping another. You may be saying: “But, I’m just one person, what can I do?” You can’t change the world, but you can start by changing yourself. What ever is going on in the inside will be reflected on the outside. Everything in the world is based on the inner consciousness of man.
Always remember, that one person (that means you) can make all the difference. You are a soul, so believe and know that you do have power and you do matter in this collective universe.
ALL THAT I GIVE IS GIVEN TO MYSELF
Gerald Jampolsky, M.D.
(Love is letting go of Fear)
To give is to receive is the law of Love. Under the law, when we give our Love away to others we gain, and what we give we simultaneously receive. The law of love s based on abundance; we are completely filled with Love all the time, and our supply is always full with Love all the time, and our supply is always full and running over. When we give our Love unconditionally to others with no expectations of return, the Love within us extends, expands and joins. So by giving our Love away we increase the Love within us and everyone gains.
The law of the world, on the other hand, states that what we give away we lose. That is to say, when we give something away, we don't have it anymore and suffer loss.
The world's law is based on the belief in scarcity. It holds that we are never really satisfied. We continue to feel empty as we vainly attempt to get fulfilled by seeking for Love and peace in whatever forms we have come to think of as desirable.
The problem, of course, is that nothing in our external world will continuously and totally satisfy us. Under the world's law, we continuously search but never find. We frequently think our inner well is empty and that we are in need. We then try to fulfill our imaged needs through other people.
A powerful lesson from Mother Teresa was that you don't have to seek for guidance outside of yourself to find out what to do. Learn that the time for giving is always now - not later - and that by giving with no expections or limits, one has immediate inner peace. Learn in that one instant that all you give is given to yourself.
Today I will give to others only the gifts I want to accept for myself.
TRANSFORMATION
Ainslie MacLeod
(from the book The Transformation)
If your soul has one purpose, it’s this: to evolve. It wants to know what being a human is all about. So it comes to the Physical Plane repeatedly, each time attaching itself to a physical body for the duration of a lifetime to explore new lessons every time.
The soul has specific missions it uses to help give its lifetime a focus. A soul with a mission of healing, for example, will want to learn about being of service, helping other souls to complete their life plans, and of course, healing. We all have a combination of missions. They’re narrow enough to give a life certain themes, yet broad enough to avoid limiting free will.
Beyond its specific missions for each lifetime, your soul is seeking something much bigger. Its grand purpose, if you like, is to unite with your Physical Plane self, through its ten transformational goals. Sometimes described by my spirit guides as “paths,” or “core values,” these goals are the key to personal transformation and are the ultimate lessons your soul is here to learn.
As the Transformation builds, and an increasing number of us connects with our goals, it will become easier for others to follow. (A rising tide lifts all boats, as the saying goes.)
Connecting with the ten transformational goals is how, in this lifetime, rather than somewhere in the distant future, you can elevate your consciousness.
The Ten Transformational Goals
- Equality
- Cooperation
- Respect
- Justice
- Knowledge
- Understanding
- Truth
- Freedom
- Peace
- Love
Each transformational goal comes with its own payoff. When you embody your soul’s goal of Equality, you’ll recognize your true worth as a valuable member of the tribe, no better or worse than any other. This awareness will help to break down the Illusion and connect you more strongly than ever to your soul.

Fear of failure becomes fear of success for those who never try anything new.
Have you considered that risks are nothing more than thoughts that you've convinced yourself are impossible to implement?
The person looking back at you in the mirror is the one you hae to answer to every day.
