Name the Terror

A nameless terror works very specifically and gains energy by having no identity.

Once you name the terror, you can look at it and disassemble it.

With a name, you can identity where and how it works, and you can defeat it.

A terror out of the past operates off your embedded emotions.

As you bring the intention of the terror to light, you can defeat it by realizing that there is no longer anyone to perpetuate it in your life.

Your memory of terror can help you identify it, name it, and dissolve it.

The next time you feel the terror, you can remember how you named it, and how you released it.

Your happiness keeps growing once you find it and start cultivating it.

Your happiness is so very much more powerful than the terror.

Your happiness carries you along, and even when the terror sneaks in, you can name it, and release it once again.

As you build up your happiness and your practice in releasing the terror that plagued you in the past, you will get better and better at your happiness.

You will be able to deal with other terrors from the past, and you will accomplish your goals and dreams as you continue to name and release your terrors.

What once stopped you has grown weaker.

You have named it, you can see how it works, and you can release it and give yourself happiness and accomplishments.

Trusting the Contrasts

Contrasts are sweet and powerful.

Life’s challenges, agonies and betrayals, resolved, become pillars of constancy.

Unshakable confidence results.

Unchallenged self-assurance simply builds on the ever-available supports.

The desire for security in one’s own mind begins a different kind of search.

The search moves from without to within.

The contrast in resources is extreme.

The visible is useless.

Only the invisible has integrity.

The discovery of the infinite resources within has immeasurable power.

Listening for guidance and experiencing the sure and certain evidence of timing and connections creates immense manifestation.

There is no way to describe this.

You have to be compelled to take the first step.

It is a development like any other and requires devotion, commitment and practice.

It is a development unlike any other in that you must listen to the call.

If your life has tuned you to this frequency, you will experience it.

Listen for the contrasts.

Watch and observe when things do not work out.

There may be higher work for you.

Valued From Within

All the controversy that is being stirred up is because there is a deep truth which we are being compelled to discover.

It has to do with living in one world and making sure that everyone has access to the resources they need to take care of themselves.

Living in cooperation and respect is the best way to insure this state of existence.

We all have immense abilities to be inventive and to share our resources and solutions.

Our best is a mix of all available ideas and applications.

As we refine them, the most workable ones remain to be implemented.

In reading about cooperatives, I am impressed by how everyone’s contribution is valued all the way from administration to implementation.

The folks making things are as valued as the folks taking orders.

The folks designing advertising are as valued as the sales force.

The folks designing the products and services are as valued as the managers and administrators.

Everyone’s effort is seen as equally valuable and necessary.

So everyone is valued in making decisions for the company.

Cooperatives are seen as one of the most stable kinds of companies.

The most widespread demonstration of this is in the Basque region of Spain, in Mondragon, where even during the harshest economic times, Mondragon and its many cooperatives have continued to thrive for decades.

We can all begin to look at one another as valued community members and find ways of governing ourselves which include a good way of life for everyone.

Every Day a Healing Day

Every day of calm is a day of healing.

I have learned not to get too excited, either through happiness or sadness.

It can trigger an emotional level of overstimulation which leads to pain and the remembrance of trauma.

I used to feel that I had to become strong enough or accomplished enough to overcome my pain and PTSD.

Now, I feel relieved to know that the more I keep myself in a state of calm, the more I am healing.

I allow myself time to heal when old memories trigger unbearable pain.

I respect the time it takes to bring myself back into a feeling of well-being.

I am compassionate toward myself and I no longer bury nor trivialize the pain.

I respect my power and what it took to diminish it.

I respect how I am being helped and guided to build it up to much more than it was when I was a helpless child.

I can do this for myself.

I can comfort and protect and love and nurture that child within me.

She is worth it.  I am worth it.

We are precious, she and I.  We are one.

And I am calm once again.

My Life is not Rushed

My life is no longer rushed.

Partly, it is because I am no longer in the “rat race”.

I am doing the things I love, and I am doing a lot of them.

I go to several groups every week, where I learn and practice.

But I don’t rush to them.

I don’t hurry myself through my projects, unless I decide I particularly want to.

I no longer have “too much” to do.

The more I look at my past experiences rising a large family in a large metropolitan area, the more I see solutions which are built on the idea of a small community.

A small community can exist within a large metropolitan area defined by the people and ideas within it.

Being assured of the services and things we need being in close proximity helps alleviate rush.

We can provide the services we need for each other.

We can share transportation or work from home.

Our cottage industries can provide some of the things we need.

Right where we are, right in front of us, are solutions to redefine our lives to get rid of the “rush”.

Filled with Good, No Other Memory

Increasing our sense of the present, of now, increases our ability to let go of the past.

As we cultivate the presence of good in our lives it begins to take up some of the space we devoted to memory.

Living in the “now” and doing the things we love, changes the direction of our lives.

Basing what we do on what we love overcomes past influences.

Reminders of the past come into thought from time to time.

They have no significance once we consistently put the weight of our thought into what we currently love.

We build up experiences in our lives which reflect the direction we choose for ourselves.

We choose good, we choose what is appropriate for our sense of ourselves, we choose happiness.

The influence of someone else’s concept of life from our past is no longer relevant.

We fill our lives with good, and release any other memory.

When You Become Irrelevant

When you become irrelevant, it is time to find a new niche.

You have grown beyond your past surroundings.

You have a new role, which has yet to be defined.

Instead of it being defined by your past experiences, you are now ready for something new.

In your present experience, you now have room to move in a different direction.

You have room to discover a new skill or improve a skill you already have.

You have room to connect with new people and to appreciate their views.

You have room to become bigger than your previous role in life.

The discomfort you feel in your new irrelevancy is actually a good thing.

It is pointing you toward something much more fulfilling.

It is OK to invent a whole new life for yourself.

You have much better tools than when you were first starting out.

You can use them in wonderful ways.

You can use your considerable life experience and wisdom to benefit yourself.

It is time to take a new step, a new turn, and to find a totally new kind of satisfaction.

Creating Happiness

I am in a defined mental, physical and spiritual space in which I can create happiness for myself.

As I create happiness for myself, it expands around me.

I can create happiness within and without.

It is my nature to be happy and to express myself naturally in happy ways.

I can draw on the elements around me to create happiness, and I can draw elements toward me to to create happiness.

I can overflow tie happiness when I make sure I have room to do what I love to do.

The more I respect and honor what I love to do and actively engage in doing it the more happiness I create for myself.

Being constantly happy shows me that I have taken conscious control of my mental, physical, and spiritual space.

I naturally live happily in the space I have create to do what I love to do.
