1983.08.21: Latwii on acceptance, treating others

[hounsic]

Feel the love in the moment. It flows through you. You are not responsible for producing it. You are only responsible for patiently, again and again, when you sense your contraction around a trigger, around pain, around suffering, beginning to do that work of remembrance that releases fear so that you remember who you are and why you are here.

My emphasis. It boggles my mind: how can this be the most actionable suggestion the Confederation offers, and yet I'm really just now coming around to it?

I think this might be part of the problem Diana was pointing out with the "all is well" ethos being applied in an unreflective, narrow sense. The work that needs to be done for most of us is primarily concerned with getting out of the Creator's way. We wring our hands about how best to serve, but this will never be something that we'll be able to truly know with 100% certainty on this side of the veil. Only within the self can the terrain be known with anything approaching sufficient certainty to act in and of our own resources and agency. That is where our primary work resides: to remove the blockages to the Creator's love flowing through us, so we can serve as an instrument of a design known only at a vantage point we do not occupy in this reality.

I'm not saying we shouldn't lift a finger to act in the world until we're perfect. I'm saying the opposite: we do our best in the world knowing our limitations, and when we falter, that's just catalyst for continuing the real project within.
