DECISIONS:   WHICH  IS  RIGHT? CROSSROADS

by Barbara Todish


   


When we have  to make  decisions  about which direction  to   take  how can we make it easier? We  can  try to visualize  ourselves  as  who we REALLY are or we can visualize  the  adult we will  be  in  the  future  by participating  activelv in the accumulation of  experience  that becomes  our personal history AND personality. If we are a  "robot" about getting  up  in the morning or  if  we are a  "computer"      that is   programmed by mom and dad and our friends or job to  just react  by habit or  to demand coming   from OUTSIDE of  us, or if we are on "automatic   pilot",   then are we being active PARTICIPANTS in  the accumulation of cur  personal “history” or our per onality?  Can, a robot or a  computer  even have  a personality?   Can robots be unique and special?  We are actively accumulating our  personal  history when we choose insights  at a crossroad AND when we really work hard at finding out what is  true about ourselves. WHERE IS THIS AIR CURRENT   TAKING  US? When unpredictable currents  of chance  happen TO us  are we going  to "ride"
The current or are we going to be “ridden” by it? We can choose to see our  "voyage"  through life by being  inside  the decision making  process.at all   times  or we can choose to  "see" our  choice of "transportation as  "currents"'of chance. We  can use  the "electricity"  that  enthusiasm generates or we  can  "recoil"  from  participation by being stagnant, acting  like we are  in shock.


    TIME IS A  PERCEPTION  TOO!


If something   is   transformed_and_captured  in a REPRESENTATION  that merelv exaggerates small differences, is this really a creation or is it a mere duplication of what already exists?  Is   there  any way  to   transform( or transcend) what you have no perception of?  Is   there any way to  communicate  or  draw what has  no recognizable,pattern?  If art and  the  artificial represents  our  perception of  patterns, then what   is .the   communication  of   that  which  has   no   pattern?   What   is   the   the unique insight information   that has   no  exaggeration?   THAT  IS   THE  REAL  YOU!

 

 


Once Upon A Time


In literature imagination can. be complex when an authortries to “draw “ a picture with words about someones life or someones fictional life,then is we “adopt this life as if it were our own there is an additional layer of complexity.Sometimes we “live” our lives vicariously through celebrities, through soap operas, or just be exaggerating our own lives with drama or by gossiping. Perhaps real literature instead of being words on paper is LIVING our own lives by READING (uniquely knowing) OURSELVES!

This is a crazy world. What can be done? Amazingly, we have been mislead. We have been taught that we can control government by voting. The founder of the Rothschild dynasty, Mayer Amschel Bauer, told the secret of controlling the government of a nation over 200 years ago. He said, "Permit me to issue and control the money of a nation and I care not who makes its laws." Get the picture? Your freedom hinges first on the nation's banks and money system. Freedom is connected with Debt Elimination for each individual. Not only does this end personal debt, it places the people first in line as creditors to the National Debt ahead of the banks. They don't wish for you to know this. It has to do with recognizing WHO you really are in A New Beginning: A Practical Course in Miracles, an informational study.
