Cognitive Dissonance and Selective Compassion

[Monica]

Monica, from what I've read, pre-life programming (even for Wanderers) involves maybe a whole lifetime of experience around a central one or two issues. These lessons are usually quite a hurdle for the individual, and are in no ways easy to overcome.

most of us have inklings of what these one or two lessons might be; but the fact that it is allocated 50-90 years of incarnate experience to work through shows that:

1) it is not a superficial lesson

and

2) that when we learn it, we want to learn it for good, and have it really sink down into our psyche, change who we are.

so by all means, we each struggle with our own 'cross' and burden, a blockage that seemingly does not yield to all the most exhaustive methods and approaches.

but it is by no means arbitrary and callous; there is a certain design to each life.

I'm sure I've just restated platitudes that you've read in countless books; but that's all I have to offer just now

No, not at all! Actually I hadn't thought of it quite that way, so what you said was very helpful! Thanks!

I really feel for your situation; I can see how hard you are trying to work with it; and like others recently, you've made it a public seeking, and so you've invoked the help of others now. (not all in the physical form lol).

I see how much compassion you have; I see the wisdom you apply to your everyday experience.

Thanks!!!

please forgive me if I've made too many presumptions and overstepped the mark into personal territory

Not at all! Nothing to forgive! I appreciate everything you said!

if I may add one last thing; there are some things the intellectual mind cannot know for certain; (the intellect is just surface mind anyway : d). But direct experience of the light of the spirit can supply that lack.

Yes...thanks!
