Oh, That’s Perfect!
Ready for the first lesson? Great.
Sit back and relax. No, come to think of it, maybe you should sit up straight. It would be much better for your posture.
In any event, get ready to digest this first lesson ...
The entire universe, including the world you live in, is perfect. You read that right: It’s perfect just the way it is.
Oh, I can hear you now:
“What kind of cosmic crack are you on, Bob? Even though there is good stuff to be thankful for, the world is filled with anxiety, frustration and anger, in addition to lots of really weird people – like the cable guy. It’s far from perfect.”
That’s the common belief. But it’s dead wrong.
The universe and the abundant energy that flows through it are perfect just as they are. They always have been and always will be.
There is no anxiety in the world; there are only people thinking and acting in anxious ways. There is no frustration in the universe; there are only people thinking frustrating thoughts and engaging in frustrating actions.
Like the last time you switched lanes during rush hour only to get into an even slower lane. You caused that situation. It wasn’t the traffic. It wasn’t the old lady in the ’92 Impala going 27 miles an hour on the freeway.
And it wasn’t the universal conspiracy to keep you from getting to Starbucks on time (as if you really need more caffeine).
You decided to get upset about it, and you followed through on that promise. Congratulations on keeping your word!
The same goes for anger, guilt, worry, resentment – you name it. You bring most of that negative stuff upon yourself.
Trust me on this one. The world was created perfectly.
I should know. I hung out with the original designer. (And you think computer nerds today are geeks. You ain’t seen nothin’. This guy was a real Poindexter. A major dork-o-rama. You should have seen the pocket protector on this guy. But I digress.)
