SLIP SLIDING AWAY

Yesterday was a day of one step forward then two backwards. The words of that Paul Simon song kept going through my mind this Morning. My mentors tell me, one can not really go backward, we learn with every experience. I know that to be true, yet, we will have days when it doesn't seem true.

Yesterday was a day of strange happenings; e-mail glitches, misunderstandings and silly errors. Today, the Sun is shining bright. I will release yesterday to the past and let it fade away.

Today is a brand new day to create anew. There are so many things in this world we want to improve. We see that the world is wretched; pain and suffering everywhere. We have learned that wailing about the injustices of the world helps nobody and causes us to see the world through a negative filter. Of course, when we see something we can correct, we do so. The greatest thing we can do for everybody is to raise our own consciousness. We know by now we enhance what we focus on. If we focus on the positive aspects in the world, we help them grow.

The consciousness of the world is rising rapidly. The darkness is diminishing. This is not quite evident in the main stream media. If you are media watcher look for breaks in the doom and gloom coverage [war mongering etc.]. The united front will break down soon. I don't advise paying much attention to the MSM. One has to have a well tuned BS detector and the ability not to be influenced by the mind shaping propaganda. I am one of those that think that I can pay attention to it and not be effected that much; but I decided to avoid all television news a couple months ago and I think it was a good decision.

We need to avoid anything that diminishes our light. Everyone needs our light. Happiness is light. Joy is light. Love is light. We are so use to thinking we need to struggle, the idea that there is no gain without pain, that we have a hard time accepting the idea that we just need to be happy. Happiness, radiant happiness, is our birthright. When we are happy we lift everyone up.

We have struggled so long that it is difficult to accept that happiness is a decision of our mind. We need to prove it to ourselves. Once we have realized it, we won't settle for anything less. Then, of course, we will "slip slide away". As long as we are in our present consciousness and in these bodies, we will have a tendency to slip and slide.

Accept the fact that we are still evolving and we can seem to go backward as well as forward. Let's not be discouraged. Choose happiness again and again. Always choose happiness. "The Past is Only a Goodbye" another song. This one by Crosby, Stills and Nash.

Love and Peace,  Gregg
