To Identify With The Ego...

"To identify with the ego is to attack yourself and make yourself poor. 2 That is why everyone who identifies with the ego feels deprived. 3 What he experiences then is depression or anger, because what he did was to exchange Self-love for self-hate, making him afraid of himself. 4 He does not realize this. 5 Even if he is fully aware of anxiety he does not perceive its source as his own ego identification, and he always tries to handle it by making some sort of insane "arrangement" with the world. 6 He always perceives this world as outside himself, for this is crucial to his adjustment. 7 He does not realize that he makes this world, for there is no world outside of him." T-12.III.6:1-7

When I see myself as a body in this world, I feel as if thought I am separate from everything, and only my physical senses serve as witness to what I "believe" to be true for me. As I continue practicing letting go and letting God, I notice how all of my needs are met, not necessarily so that I can continue satisfying my ego, but so that I can continue doing the work I am here to do, which is to share that which I have to learn for myself.

The more I detach, the more peaceful I feel. It is a constant practice that seems to get easier and easier. And every projection allows me to only see where I still need to heal. Or I should say, where I think I need to heal because the Son of God is already perfect, whole and complete.

This is a personal journey. I enjoy sharing what I experience, always reminding myself that I need not to change anything or anyone, nor try to recruit. Those who resonate with what I have to share are led by their own inner voice to connect with me.

That being said, I always remind everyone I meet that I do not have any answers. My book does not have any answers. That the answers are found within. I am just a reminder that all answers are found within. In doing so, I remind myself that all answers are found within me.

Besides, why would I bother trying to teach others when the world is really inside me! That would be an oxymoron. LOL

Bottom line, I love you all, and remember that everything you think it is missing in your life is because you are trying to make some kind of " some sort of insane 'arrangement' with the world." T-12.III.6:5

Turn within, and you'll know what to do. But it takes practice.
