Making a New Year's REVOLUTION
The Weekly Word #21~ December, 2007
We need another REVOLUTION! People in the United States, here in
Mexico where I am living right now, and most other countries in the
world have revolted against tyrannical and abusive leaders throughout
history. Sometimes the revolutions are successful and new freedoms
have emerged and stayed, and other times the Big Parasite has triumphed
and freedoms have been lost, only to be fought for later.
I think we have already learned that the resolutions we make for
the New Year don't last long or work out very well. Our intentions
are good, but something usually goes wrong. Perhaps you resolve to
give up a habit that goes against you, slim down or buff up, be more
loving, meditate more, give up sugar, be nicer to your partner, find
a partner to be nice to, pay off your credit cards, make more money,
find a better job, start your own business, keep your house/ car/
clothes/ kids/ dog cleaner, and hundreds of other good intentions.
If you have made New Year's resolutions in the past and "failed"
to keep them, and then been mad at yourself or judged yourself for
your failure, please, Please, PLEASE don't do that again this year.
Instead, join me in a New Year's REVOLUTION.
Revolt and rebel against the voice of that Judge in your mind that
says you "should" make all those changes, and then makes
you wrong for being who you are and not following through! Don't tolerate
anyone inside or out criticizing you. You are not bad, not wrong,
not a failure at anything! Revolt!
Rebel! Fight Back!! Make 2008 the year of your revolt, your revolution
against the tyrannical and abusive voices in your head that question
you, doubt you, or judge you. Make this the New Year of Freedom in
your life!
YOU ARE PERFECT. I REPEAT, YOU ARE PERFECT, JUST THE WAY YOU ARE,
AND JUST THE WAY YOU ARE NOT!
I hope you will think about this if you have not; or, if you need
to again:
This universe is animated by an amazing and unknowable force. It seems
to be in everything, from trees to turtles, from grains of sand to
galaxies of space, and from algae in the swamp to humans in the shoe
store. It is everywhere. It is even the force that holds the air between
the swamp and shoe store in place, moving, balanced in its elements,
and available for all life.
We can call this animating force LIFE. And I think you will agree
that there seems to be only one of them. Trees are animated by the
same Life force as turtles (and shoe stores). If there is only one
Life animating everything in the universe, then YOU are created, animated,
and directed by that Life. If we look at the sum total of everything
Life creates and animates, we can see that it is all the same, one
unified whole, one living being of Life, manifested in countless forms
in a physical world.
(Still with me?)
My point: If there is only one thing here, in all of its different
manifested forms, then it is all PERFECT-- there is nothing to compare
it to, nothing outside of it. If the one whole is perfect, then every
part of it has to be perfect. And YOU are part of it! Therefore, you
are perfect! YOU are Life!
So, back to the REVOLUTION. Any voice-- inside or out, any person,
event, memory, fear, or judgment that doubts your perfection is lying.
LYING! Do I make myself clear?? LYING. There is nothing to fear, nothing
to doubt. Just to be YOU! As Life. The perfect manifestation of a
perfect force.
Then, if you want to work out or be more loving, of course, go ahead!
But not because you "should" or have to, to prove you are
okay, or are worthy of love. LIFE IS WORTHY OF LOVE ~ LIFE IS LOVE.
You are Life.
REVOLT! Make this January calendar change your New Year's REVOLUTION.
Stand up for your freedom, for your perfection, your Divine right
to be exactly who Life is, as you! Let us declare our freedom from
the tyranny and fear inside first, then the outside. Let's not waste
any more time! NOW is the time for the Revolution! The goal is a world
of peace inside and out, or as my teacher, don Miguel Ruiz says, ".
. .to the eternal happiness of humanity."
