From Carol Tedesco and Friends
In the past several weeks I have experienced what most people would consider losses. There has been a loss of a friendship, loss of loved one’s (three deaths in one week) and a sense of a loss of control around the recent natural disaster in Myanmar. I could have chosen to see these as losses, but in truth they are only changes in an already changing life. With regard to the friendship, what I realized is that while things have changed, I am no less than I was before this friend entered my life, so that this person is gone from my life now, makes me no less than I was. Yes, I was more with them in my life, but their absence does not make me less. Life is transient and people come and go, whether by death or by a choice to leave a situation, or by natural disaster. But what is a constant is that we are all whole and perfect right now. No outer events can ever change that.
I know it may not feel that way to many people, but this is truth. Any feelings that may arise when something you have “perceived” to be making you whole is taken away are merely signals to look at, and address the level of your acceptance of, and embodiment of this truth. Nothing is really ever lost. We are all connected to one another, and any sense of separation from others or from the Divine are a self-created illusion. Wholeness resides in each one of us right now. The only difference is in the degree to which we live that truth in our lives. So, when you feel a sense of loss, look at how you perceive the world. Do you see your neighbor as your brother or sister in this human experience called life? Or do you judge them or see them as something separate from you. Any judgments we have of situations or people, including ourselves, is a reflection of where we have forgotten that we are whole and perfect. They are a reflection of our Ego selves, as created from fear, not of our true selves as it exists in truth right now. Who we really are is all the aspects of God; love, peace, harmony, joy, abundance, happiness, and compassion. We are that right now, and we can operate from that perspective right now.
So, what stops us from doing that? I believe it is mostly fear. It is the fear of being powerful co-creators in the Universe. If we fully embrace that Divine power within us; that perfection that is our Divine birthright, then what would we have to complain about anymore! Who would we have to blame for our lives not being what we desire them to be? It is about taking responsibility for our created experience and choosing to make the changes that put us in greater alignment with the truth. We are all One, and we are all whole right now. We lack nothing and we do not need to be fixed in anyway. The only reason we see such suffering in the world is because people choose to not allow this truth to be made manifest in their life. And if every human being did allow this truth to be expressed completely, we would have created heaven on earth! The potential for heaven on earth resides now in every one of us. All we need to do is make it manifest in our experiences, in our relationships, in our work, and in our reality. This week I invite you to look at how this truth is either showing up in your experience, or not showing up, and take a stand for making a change in your life for moving toward the fullest expression of this truth in your life. You are whole right now! Envision what that picture looks like for you and begin creating it today! I dare you! Be the change you wish to see in the world…..be oneness, be whole, complete and perfect right now! Choose to operate from that perspective right now!
Love and Blessings,
Carol
