What if you were born on a Red Planet. Everything on the planet was red in color including yourself. What would you know about the color red? Absolutely nothing! You would not even know it was a color, having nothing else for comparison.<\/p>\n

We are created in a spirit world as a spirit, or rather a spark, because of our small size and knowledge. From this \u201cspark\u201d we will eventually, over time, grow in spiritual knowledge to become co-creators of many diverse possibilities.<\/p>\n

Now the spirit world is unconditional love, we are created in that love. While this is very beneficial it is also very limiting. Like the Red Planet and the color red, we don\u2019t know what unconditional love is with nothing for comparison. This puts limits on our natural curiosity to discover diverse possibilities.<\/p>\n

So physical life on Planet Earth was created as an accelerated classroom for spiritual growth. Here we are presented with the challenges of choosing \u201cLove\u201d or \u201cNot Love.\u201d This seems simple enough, but we must forget who we are, and where we come from, before we arrive which makes the physical seem very real.<\/p>\n

Physical life is actually a grand illusion. We play a part through our free will, and play the part of our own choosing. We are continually presented with problems, tragedies, even catastrophic losses which contain elements of \u201cLove\u201d and \u201cNot Love.\u201d Eventually we learn to choose \u201cLove\u201d in even the most horrible of circumstances.<\/p>\n

Once you have chosen to enter physical life, you must complete it. That can take a few lifetimes or many lifetimes. Some religions call it being on \u201cThe Wheel of Life.\u201d The only way off is to complete the class by choosing love.<\/p>\n

The physical is not mandatory, you can pass if you wish. Only the most courageous, inquiring of spirits come into physical life. That you are here shows you are not a quitter. But if you keep choosing to \u201cNot Love\u201d you will fall deeper and deeper into the \u201chole\u201d you dug until it becomes unbearable. <\/p>\n

The ending of physical life is always the same. Everyone eventually chooses \u201cLove.\u201d Some spirits journey through physical life becomes long and painful, while others are short and hardly a trouble. It all depends on when you choose \u201cLove.\u201d A few spirits may believe their life will always be hopeless which is only a thought that can be changed at anytime. It is of great advantage to choose \u201cLove\u201d as quickly as possible.<\/p>\n

Now there are many different ways to choose \u201cLove\u201d over \u201cNot Love.\u201d The path I recommend takes little time and is easy to follow. You choose by saying to yourself: \u201cI choose Love.\u201d Say it again and it becomes an Affirmation. Say it several times a day. Then say: \u201cI will Love\u201d along with \u201cI choose Love.\u201d Then add more affirmations to your list and say them twice a day. Once in the morning, and just before going to bed. Try to say them slowly with meaning so they soak into the mind. The whole process takes less than 10 minutes to do, and is certainly worth doing. The list I used can be found here.<\/strong><\/a> It is OK to modify the list to better suit your needs, or even write your own from scratch. But make sure they are positive thoughts. Like \u201cI am worthy of happiness.\u201d \u201cI am worthy of success.\u201d<\/p>\n

This is not a quick cure, expect to use affirmations every day for a long time. I still use them occasionally, when I have a bad day. They work by replacing negative thoughts you have used over time, but only if they are said, with meaning, twice a day, every day. You may not notice a difference for a few weeks. It took three weeks for me. But you will begin to feel better in time. Do not stop just keep going.<\/p>\n

You are spirit. You are eternal. You are created in love and will remain in the Creators love forever. The judgments you receive will come only from yourself. The punishments you receive will come only from yourself. You are your best friend or your worse enemy, the decision is yours alone. Only you can change your thoughts, no one else can do this for you. <\/p>\n

Wishing you the very best of all things. Love.<\/p>\n
