Dearest Students, You might like to consider (for those of you who like extra homework) the following: What in my life (that is causing me pain) am I powerless over?
Begin a list (in your special School notebook which I do hope you have by now!) of the things you are powerless over. Each time something that you are powerless over brings you pain or unhappiness add it to your list.
When you do this, you are telling yourself the Truth about what you are powerless over. This helps to over-ride the unconscious lies we constantly tell ourselves (that we have power where we have none). And it helps you direct your energy toward what you do have the power to change (more about this in future lessons).
For all Classes: Your next Lessons are coming soon, so please make sure you have completed your previous homework and read your lessons.

Dera Judy, dear classmates and dear angels,
ReplyDeleteI couldn't sleep, it is 10 to six in the morning, and I was exactly in this situation, I feel powerless.
The most thing makes me feel in this way, is, when I have done something wrong (my mind tells me that!?) not in this moment, but afterwards when it happened and when I cannot make it unhappened. And it is so stupid, because nobody can change what happened, and thinking about being so stupid takes so much power of me.
And it is always the same game, sometimes I tried to watch me from another perspective, from high above in the sky, when I feel like this, and then I think it is like a great, big game I am playing.
I cannot change what happened, whatever, and maybe I don't have to do it. Maybe I think that I have to feel in this way, otherwise I wouldn't learn...
It is new just to take a deep breath and to allow my feelings without valueing? (don't know the english word).
It is the game to live now and not in the past, and it is deep in me. I want to make peace with my inner conflict, now.
I make peace,
no,
I am in peace, now.
And now a new day begins...
I send love to all of you,
thank you being part of you,
Antje
Dear Antje, I always admire your honesty and willingness to share, and how you seem each time to reach your own answers. Writing is like that. Writing is a marvelous tool that helps us find the wisdom already inside us.
ReplyDeleteI read your post very early morning L.A. time, and sent a loving thought off to you.
Perhaps we cannot change the actual facts of the past, but we can change our perception of it. When our perception changes, so do we.
Scientists know very well that our memories of the past are not static and may not even be what actually happened. I will be talking more about our perceptions of the past in other lessons. For now, thank you for sharing.
Hello Antje,
ReplyDeletewhen I read your post in the morning i was touched and my hair stood on end.
Thank you.
Love
Monika
