LOST IN THE ILLUSION

When people say, "How are you doin'" I often answer, "I am putting one foot in front of another." I mean it in a jocular way. At my age if you can still navigate on this planet everything is okay. But sometimes, there is no humor in it. Sometimes we trudge through life without experiencing much joy. We go from one thing to another without seeing [or looking for] love and light. We don't know what our life would look like if we did.

We need to keep in mind that everything that is not love is illusion. When we knew we were part of Source and we understood our role as co-creators; we could experience nothing but love. We created with the Energy of Love. Love is infinite we couldn't see anything that was not love. We wanted to experiment with creating separate from The One. We could do that. Separation from Source led to separation from each other. Fear entered in and we each began creating our individual experience. Powerful and free we were able to create heaven or hell for ourselves.

We forgot we were powerful and being free became an illusive idea. But we still continued to create our separate versions  of hell or heaven. For thousands of years we have been stuck creating a future from the thoughts of the past. We have been going around and around following whatever glimmer of hope we could see. Separate and divided we were easily manipulated by those seeking power. The Great Ones came and went. They taught a way out of our dilemma. Some of us listened for a little while. Some successfully escaped the loop. They became teachers.

Gradually we caught on; Love is The Answer. More and more of us caught on. We could see that when we looked for love and light our lives changed. We realized that experiencing the love and light from each other was what we wanted. Life could be filled with love. Life could be full of joy. Life could be continuous fun. Hey! It occurred to us that we could create heaven. We don't need any opposite.

We began to realized that heaven or hell on this Earth was our choice. We chose Heaven. Of course there was some kind of critical mass. When enough people realized, at once, that love was our choice, we opened up to the love of the Universe that awaited our decision. Since then Heaven on Earth was guaranteed.

The illusion is thinning. We are beginning to see through it. But it is what we know. It is what we have always known. It is not easy to take our belief away from it. Sometimes we are lost in the illusion. We forget to look for the light and love. That's okay. We won't be lost long. The Energy of Love is sweeping across the Earth. We can't keep our eyes closed to Paradise for long.

When we find ourselves trudging through the day, forgetful of the light; pause, clear the mind, feel the love that surrounds us. We are free. We are free to love. If it is not love it is the illusion.

Love and Peace,  Gregg
