What do I want?

I'm listening to Marianne Williamson on the "Healing With the Masters Audio Replay." There is a great deal in what I've heard. I encourage you all to listen or if you cannot, then to read "The Age of Miracles."

The common discussion about how our thoughts determine the way we see the world...yes, I think most of us know this. How can we change our thoughts?

Marianne talks about how the world is dominated by a thought system based on fear. It's about unlearning this thought system. To surrender this way of looking at the world and embrace a system based on love is a very different way of thinking about the world. Prayer and meditation will make "attitudinal changes." Emotions are alive in the cells - look at muscle testing.

"Your good intentions are not enough; your willingness is everything." (Course in Miracles) The invitation to change your mind needs to be made, otherwise it's a violation of free will.

If you want something for yourself, then give it to another. What a concept. I think this is why I'm dissatisfied with just looking for ways to make money for me. That is so shallow! It feels icky. Is this my not feeling worthy of receiving? I don't think so. Ok, maybe a little. I want to bring others with me on my way to abundance. I have a deep and abiding desire to be of service and yes, I need to pay my bills. My dream is to be of service in a profound way and to be paid in abundance for that work. That would be a life worth living.
