The Happy Dance

[Guest guest]

All day I have been struggling with unresolved stuff from yet another timeline.

It's not the first time I have worked on clearing stuff out from that " past. "

But that's not why I'm writing.

 

I'm thinking about the Safeties and I'm thinking about karma.

 

I'm thinking about how when we make a decision that causes pain to ourself or

another, some aspect of ourself has to fix it and set things right. That's where

the Safeties come in. Forgiveness, recapitulation, surrender, inner joy, prayer,

gratitude, these are the tools we use.

 

If we can use these tools to clear up our mistakes as we go, how much easier

life becomes. When we have to go through and clear up old mistakes that we only

halfway remember from another time and place, well, that can become quite a

painful lot of work.

 

So, tonight I was thinking of how this pain is motivating me to stay clear in

this lifetime, out of compassion for those other aspects of myself in other

timelines who otherwise would have to suffer the effects of my mistakes, and

have to fix them.

 

Then I started feeling gratitude. I thought about them making the effort to

connect with me over mistakes I am making in this life, helping me out with

nudges and sweetness and little kisses and clues, encouraging me to take one

path over the other so as to lessen the suffering overall.

 

I thought about those different aspects of Me, which are quite different than

the me I am now, and how if I could see them all lined up, they would appear to

be perfect strangers.

 

That got me to thinking that in the intricate Web of Life, perhaps we all are

each other's past lives and future lives and alternate lives, and that as we

work to set things right, we serve as each other's guardian angels, teachers and

healers.

 

There is a saying that We Are All Related, that We Are All One, that we all

sprang from that great initial pulse of excited self-discovery which launched

the original Oneness into its many-faceted journey of separation and

exploration. Perhaps as we practice the Safeties, and clean as we go, and serve

as each other's guides and teachers and guardian angels, we are re-membering our

wholeness and bringing ourselves one step closer to Home. Back to the Center,

back to Unity, where we can dance the happy dance of joyful self-recognition,

then explode with Joy and do the whole thing over again!

 

Just some thoughts on this Friday evening.

 

Peace,
