We Must Learn to Ask and Allow

Subject: Sunday quote
You knew that as you came from the nonphysical perspective that the contrast would stimulate you to new ideas. And, OH, to an eternal being that is such a delicious idea. When you DON'T know you're eternal, then another new idea is just annoying. Oh no, something else to want, that I can't get.

But when you know that you're eternal, then you know that the very LIFE that that which you are IS, is dependent upon the new idea. So you savor and embrace the variety ~even the parts of it that you don't want to experience, you appreciate for their clarifying value.. When you go to a buffet, even though there is A LOT behind that glass that you would never put on your plate, you don?t feel bad that it?s THERE. Because nobody, since you left the hot lunch line in grade school, makes you put it on your plate.

In other words, you know that you can choose. You don't stand behind that glass and say to the nice people behind the counter, I don't want that and I don't want that, and what in the world is that doing there, I can't imagine anybody ever eating that. And that's awful, oh I had that once, don't want that, don't want that... And that nice person would eventually say, it might go better if you tell me what you DO want.
