ANY WAY YOU WANT IT


IN
our desire to have
a separation experience

we created a body
with which to experience
our separation

and
a universe
to experience it in


Is this not our dream-scenario?  Actually, it is our REALITY, like it or not.
As in both advertising and entertainment, the pitch promises “any way you want” what they have to offer, and we are continually taking delivery.  We are mind-blowing manifestation machines, although a bit myopic; we seem to take credit for that which is good, but play the victim-card when things go south.

Even within our power to miscreate, we cannot help but experience choices made on many different levels, some more obvious than others.  Free will got us into this, and will also be our ticket out.

One thing difficult to grasp is that our free will is inviolable by GOD HIMSELF; we can have it any way we want it.  There was no stopping the prodigal son, from the moment the thought first entered his mind to fly the coop, until the moment of his return, and all experiences in between.  There was no smothering from an overbearing parent, no badgering about choices made, and no berating or punishment when he showed up on the doorstep--he had it just how he wanted it.

Tough circumstances in our lives make us feel like victims, but nothing could be farther from the TRUTH.  Lessons chosen to be learned, on a completely higher level, clearly place the ball in our court.  Our desire to experience the full gamut of separation scenarios is being played out in everyone we see, from rich to poor, famous to infamous, healthy to sick, talented to talentless, victimizer to victim, murderer to murdered, ad infinitum.  They all represent parts played within a dream scenario of separation, each supplying learning opportunities and experiences that were chosen by us, no matter how it appears.

The good news is, if we don’t like what we have, we can merely change our mind about it, for it was a decision in our mind that brought the experience to us in the first place.  If we have invested meaning in an aspect of our life that has since lost meaning, we can simply divest the meaning it formerly had, and choose again.

We can have it any way we want it.
