Blatantly obvious! So why didn&#8217;t I see this so clearly until last night, the ninth time I heard the simple, logical, blatantly obvious statement? \u00a0The answer is to be found in the decades of personal, family and social conditioning which has taught me that other people are responsible for hurting my feelings, and making me angry and making me feel guilty, etc.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>It is shocking at times to realize how much I still function from the position of Blockage of Personal Power, and how much I actively deny my creator-ship!<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>I am beginning to realize at a whole new level how my goal is to love myself despite my imperfections, whether they are physical, intellectual, or emotional. \u00a0This is captured in one of my favorite quotes from the book, The Mirror Theory,\u00a0<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>&#8220;&#8230;the ultimate love is appreciation of self. \u00a0Look around you. \u00a0God is living the ultimate wherever you see people loving their lives. \u00a0Once you tap into that love, you want to expand it. \u00a0No permanent state exists however, where you wouldn&#8217;t want to reach for more. \u00a0God is a light that is forever growing in breadth and depth. \u00a0But then how can I reach perfection if it&#8217;s always in a state of flux? &#8211; For that very reason. \u00a0Perfection is simply the love you find in THE EVERY MOMENT you exist. \u00a0There is no other perfect to find.&#8221;<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>We come from Love, we are made of Love, we are Love. \u00a0Everything else is false.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Last night the Mindshifters group listened \u00a0to the first part of a 4 hour audio version of Dr. Michael Ryce&#8217;s lecture titled; Why Is This Happening To Me Again? \u00a0We decided to listen to the audio version because it is &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/why-is-this-happening-to-me-again-4-hour-audio\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","_s2mail":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-101","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=101"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/101\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=101"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=101"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/blog.ch4cs.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=101"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
