I learned solitaire as a kid. I use it today to give my mind something different to do and yet, SPIRIT has a way of taking everything I do and making it a learning experience.
Someone suggested that it is just me, so I can make the rules and cheat if I want to.
In doing this, I noticed how much easier it got to cheat and to cheat in a multitude of ways fairly rapidly.
Being able to turn the cards over and have a spot for them became very rewarding.
It occurred to me that this has been the trajectory/path of the ego; that part of our mentality that feels separate from God, the One Original, Universal Creator.
We want to see that things play out the way we think they should even if we have to lie to ourselves.
I have watched this for a couple of generations now.
May I suggest that this is part of that which we want to forgive and see as illusion and unreal. Knowing it is universal and UNREAL allows us to have healthy boundaries without guilt or abandonment issues, on our side anyway.
Ego keeps our thoughts bouncing and never allows us to be still and know God, and ourselves as His Son.
It is so difficult for me to go where God is not seen because I get to “see” the way egos cheat the Son of God. The only one they are cheating is themselves as Christ which happens to include their brother’s, because we are affected by each other.

I have little pity for the challenges of the world anymore. Our belief in war, death, struggle, senility, ignorance, lack, competition, and using others for our own ends is very profound. And found everywhere.
Father has them safe within Himself and Will Guide them out of their confusion and Bless them with abundance beyond what they think they can hold ONCE they let HIM.
I do not want to be a pawn in the demise of someone’s faith or courage to exist. Yet if I mingle, even with those called family, and even the ones I birthed, I find myself in the same scenarios.
Rarely are we able to greet each other as strangers and show respect for the lives we have been given by Father.
Instead, we are labeled and wear a costume that puts us in our place in the “story of tragedy” like some Shakesperean play that they consider their life.
It occurs to me that the meaning of “those who have greeted strangers have entertained angels” may have been misinterpreted because we are all strangers no matter how long we have known each other in our respective roles.
And we need to treat each other WITH RESPECT FOR GOD.
Yep, read that again. I meant it just the way I said it.
Rather than according to how this person can play a role in beating me up again and playing out my story of struggle.
That is the psychological dilemma we face, and it really is NOT THAT DIFFICULT to get out of it.
I will hold you each inside me and tell you that we are one and we are equal and fully loved and protected in Father’s Embrace.
And I will let you play out your story of self-hate that you cast out at others, and at nature, while patting yourself on the back knowing that you gave your all, but the world is against you.
In the forgiveness of the Atonement, I KNOW that this is all unreal.
I do not live life. I LIVE Father. And I bear witness of Him as a part of the Sonship that is Christ.
I know this offends people and I will keep my distance: out of respect for your right to be miserable and defeated.
I won’t pretend that we have anything in common without the Presence of God being acknowledged. Why would I WANT to?
He ALONE is our only common denominator.
Blood, money, time, politics, religion, troubles; none of that unites us.
Only Father bears witness that we are ONE SON IN HIM.
I am speaking to those who think they live in a body and those who have set their bodies aside.
There is NO SEPARATION, period.
Till next time, God Bless, debi.
