Spiritual Liberation
Everything I tell myself is a story. Whether I feel I belong or don't belong, and all my supporting reasons and justifications - they are all just stories I tell myself to validate my emotions. Ergo ego.
The Universe is double teaming me here. I've got a teacher telling me I am manipulating myself (and in those faulty beliefs, inadvertently manipulating others I interact with by believing my own stories), and then as soon as I am off that conversation, I pick up a book that is telling me basically the same thing by saying I can at any moment choose to BE my Christed Self, and in that very moment I can do it without waiting. It may not sound connected, but inside me it is. (unless that's another story...)
I'm reading At Home with God in a Life that Never Ends by Neale Donald Walsch. It's the 10th Conversation with God. I read the first a few years ago, and now I'm reading the last. I haven't read any in the middle. Like the first one, I am not shocked by the concepts presented, but I am greatly enjoying the presentation of them.
My session with my teacher yesterday was pretty incredible. I have a lot to look at and contemplate in regards to seeing myself with more clarity, to see the ways I tell myself stories.
I think maybe stories are an emotional addiction. Without them, we risk discovering Who We Really Are.
