Is connecting so simple?

So last night I continued to read this book titled Conversation with God, by Neale Donald Walsch.

I'll share a short experience, then explain why I'm writing this in the first place.

So, I've read his two other books, and I have to say that I do doubt. It's amazing how sometimes I'll hear myself say something like "I read this.." and then it seems as if what I'm saying is "right" or "true"! It's more like, this information makes sense, I understand it, so it's okay. Because my mind possibly grows, a lot of things will likely change. Things are always changing, right?

It would be a bit (what's the word), I'll say strange, to say that our bodies don't grow, right? Well, I believe the same holds true for a lot in life. In the same sense that some may say "my body is growing" so too do I say "my mind if growing" because I've expanded from the time I was born until now. I can honestly say I understand a bit more.

Now that I've explained that (which I really don't have to explain it, but I wanted to lol), when I read this book for the first time, I had my doubts. I thought "how do I know he's having a conversation with God?" and it took me a bit of time to tell myself not to take it personally. That it's just words unless you make it more than just words. It's up to us to choose what we'll believe? Does it make you a more sane person? Does it help you?

So I thought that it wouldn't hurt. A lot of what he writes isn't to cause harm, or it doesn't bash. It's loving. So I figured, wherever he's getting the information, it's out of love.

So to the point. I was reading this book last night, and in the book God (I'll be honest, the word "God" does not much for me. There's too many "stories" as to what "God" is, so I'll probably use Creator, or whatever in the future) said upon dying, our thoughts, they work quicker.

That time is just an Earthly thing we created. That in reality we are actually living in past, present, and future. But, that our thoughts take longer to manifest. But as a soul, it does not. It's instant. I was told it was due to our density here. That there's some kind of Net which makes it so our thought experiences have a time lapse.

HA! And my boss at my old job thought I was weird for saying "me and time don't get along" lol Yes I said that to him xD He was confused. But I don't care.

Back to the point though lol This Being said that nothing much changes when we pass on. The only thing that changes is we become lighter, and we can actually "feel" that we are experiencing everything all at once and we can be at multiple places at once, and that we can regroup ourselves when we want.

Now, to people who don't even care for this kind of information, I think it's pretty cool. I mean, we get to float around and create using only our minds. Now here's the thing, the same thing is possibly on Earth as human beings. The only difference is we're dealing with physical matter.

For example, imagine a tree. See? There you go lol you just created something using your mind.

Now if I were talking to someone they might say "um....but what's the point? What could this do for me?"

Well, it's simple, think of a writer who thinks up a story. They may decide "hm, I'll put these ideas in a book." and so they create it physically. Sometimes we do have to work to get things done here. We're not just dealing with mental imagery, we're dealing with physical resources. So I do believe it's possible, everything is possible because of this.

Of course, things like changing a community will take more time to do then to go back and change some a story that's written in notepad or Microsoft word. We're talking about obstructing that has been created and manifested for years. It's like writing a book that more than 30,000 pages long and wanting to go back and make some major changes. That's going to take a while. Because you may have to make other changes in order to smooth things out.To make it "flow" properly.

Sometimes, certain parts just don't work like they use to.

Now, I'll ask a huge question. With the fact that this is very possible, let's say it's something that is "true", then why is it that people are waiting? What are you waiting for?

We die, we incarnate, we wait some more. We say "it's impossible", but in reality it's saying "I don't feel like it" we see destruction and complain. But you know, I can understand. It's years of work that we're seeing here.

Take the two different Muslims groups for example. They have been at odds for years. I'm not sure how true this is, but they feel that Americans are in the way. There is one group who believes that, I guess their concept of Jesus, will come to earth and make things better. But that this Being is afraid to come down because of all the chaos. Do I find this ridiculous? Absolutely not. I don't think they're crazy either. I think they're like all people who have a belief. To them it's "real" just like to others our their religions are "real", but I raise my hand in the air when it comes to harming others. This is just something I can't condone.

To understand this, I imagine myself creating something like, some words that people feel is good for them and they follow it, of course I understand they'll take it the way they want. Then I pass on, I'm doing my thing in the universe, and suddenly I find that they're killing others who don't follow by what I said. It's like "nowhere did I say you have to kill anyone?" that's not worship, that's like manslaughter. Besides, I wouldn't want anyone worshiping me in the first place. I said those words to help. If they help you, it's good, if it doesn't, that's fine to.

I draw the line when it gets to that point. Now am I saying I'm someone great? I won't say that I'm not, because that's belittling and I feel we're all great. But I am saying that because I could place myself in that position, I can say "Oh, well I wouldn't want people doing that to me" and I can tell myself "well, then don't do it."

What does this have to do with the whole fighting situation? Well, if everyone would just take a second and stop, I mean literally just stop! Stop and look around and see what is going on. That there's no "real" destruction, but the one we created. Erase humans from the face of the Earth and all you have in the Earth doing it's thing. Providing for animals, the water etc. Yeah, there's hurricanes, and volcano eruptions, but it's a part of life. And it's natural. It's nature. Besides, an increase in those things could have been a part of our contribution. We give unnatural gases to power our whatever. In turn, we receiving the consequences of increased rain, or acid rain. We know this. There's people who mention it. But some don't care.

Anyways, the point of this whole thing is how our thoughts and our intentions manifest. In the book it states that it could take weeks, months, or even years. I don't know about anyone else, but I'm gonna take this to my advantage. If it really is this simple, then why not use this gift.

Oh! One thing that caught my attention are newly departed souls who have to understand that their thought can cause harm to others. Now I was new to this concept, but a friend of mines often talks about being spiritually attacked. I thank her greatly for all that she's done to help me. Now, I'm not sure how this works, but I guess it may have something to do with this. I'm not saying the one's doing the harm are newly departed souls, but that some being out there could wish upon a living something not so good, possibly knowing or not knowing it could cause harm to them. It's the same thing as fighting, what the heck if the point?

If you dislike someone, maybe you should sit down and think about yourself for once. Does that person have something you want? Why envy them for it? Why not work at improving yourself. Understand that it took time for that person to get to where they are now, so the same may apply to you. It's like learning a new lesson, it's mind grappling, but it's not impossible. Stop with the nonsense!

In this book, it says that some newly departed souls may be looking down at their body, but they are still them. I have experienced this firsthand, so I understand it a little. You can still see, you are consciousness and not the body you're in. Does that mean we should treat our bodies like crap? No! For the love of all that's sane, no no no!

I use to like junk food. But I've cut down after I read about how complex the body is. It's a gift. A lot of what's in our body happens unconsciously. That means, that our conscious self has to work to help these unconscious processes. Do you seriously think we are given a body to screw it up? It's to help us learn. It's a gift. It's a frickin' gift lol

We should be lucky we don't have to worry about controlling our heartbeat, making sure we are breathing, controlling our digestive system, controlling our blood flow. All we have to do is live and learn from our mistakes. Keep our body in top condition to use it for the purpose we were given it in the first place. To experience.

Now, one interesting concept in the book, and not just in the book but by a philosopher as well, is that nothing in the world is %100 bad. That everything has a purpose. Which means smokers experience smoking for the purpose of knowing what it's like to smoke. It's said that this is not "bad", not in the sense that it's "wrong", but that it's an experience. Now, health wise, we know it's not good. I'm not saying "Go smoke to experience it!" it's something created by humans y'know. If this Creator didn't want it to exist, it wouldn't. It is experiencing everything and all through everything that is exist. Even you. Why this Creator would want to experience smoking lol I have no idea, but I won't question it.

What I'm saying is this, everything is connected, but that doesn't mean we should create unnecessary pain or chaos, just for the heck of it. Somethings are just unnecessary and if we just stop for a second lol I seriously mean this, we'll see that things are not as complicated as it seems. In argument and it's getting heated? Stop. Just stop. Even if the person stares at you confused, you two should just stop. Just stop and stand and experience. Think to yourself "why am I taking this personally? Is this necessary? How will doing this help me?"

Trust me I understand that arguments happen. They happen, yes. It's normal, or we've made it normal. But this same friend I mentioned above, posted this very great picture on fb that said something like we yell because we feel our hearts are so far apart. I can't find the picture :/ But it said something similar to this. O would really like to quote it because it was very nice.

When we stop, and just sit and talk, and one listen, and I mean truly listen, we get to the bottom of the problem. If you're in pain, maybe that person can help you. Or maybe they even know someone who can help you.

This has seriously helped me a lot. I still have times when I get annoyed. It hasn't dissipated lol but when one of my family members who say something, I'd feel a tinge of annoyance and I'd want to say something, but I'll stop myself. Because, either, they didn't understand what I was meaning to say, and it's not my fault (I'd be more at fault to continue with the argument) or they don't really mean it because they're unsure themselves. Either way, it's a misunderstanding in the form of an arguments.

I applaud people who can tolerate people who just want to argue and fight. I applaud people who deal with people who want unnecessary drama. Possibly because they know it will lead to something that isn't in the greater good of either. So they're helping even the person doing the arguing.

I'm understanding this. In my mind I have this picture of myself where I'd like to be the person who understand that it's possible to fall in love with someone new, that my partner can come to me and say "I've fallen in love with someone new" and I can understand it with a clean heart and allow him to go. As I feel that that is love in it's true form. It's love without condition, limits or restriction.

I will be this person. I feel it's more healthy. And then when it's come time for me to pass on I can say "I've experienced love and I understand it in it's true form"

To know that if I'm at odds with someone, that it's okay. Because sometimes we don't always agree, but if we can say "well, that's fine. Let's just go our separate ways" then I'd be happy. They may not have the strength to say it, but I'd be happy if I can utter this.

I won't say "I wish I could be this person" because I know it's possible because I know such a thing can exist because it exist in my mind as who I will be.

Will I be fit to teach people? Who knows. Will people listen or understand my word? I have no idea. Do I understand what I mean? Yes, and I believe this matters. Because when I believe in myself, I'm living. I don't feel I have to harm anyone. As I love the bodies we are given. That it's like a radio we are given, to help pick up transmissions, to help communicate information to others, and that over time, it'll need a tune up. That it becomes worn, and the batteries inside, the thing which truly matters, the energy inside the batteries which kept it running, will give way, and that energy will go into a new form, back into the completeness it came from.

And we can either hasten the damage of our new radio and treat it like it's no one's business, or we can be respectful of this present and treat it with respect and love and be thankful we were given this gift in the first place.

I'll be honest, I'm in a happy state of mind, regardless. I'd like to share this with others. And now I understand this is the reason why I speak or communicate in the first place. Should I become an inspirational speaker? I've never considered this lol Well, we'll see where I end up in the future. But all of my blogs here are, not just for others to read, but for me to understand  myself in all my confusion, mistakes, etc. I guess in a way, I'd like for others to understand that there is no harm in being yourself %100. Honestly, when I type these words, I would think "am I even helping anyone?" and now I think something like that, it doesn't matter.

My true reason, yes, is to share with others, but it's also a release for me. And if it happens to help someone I'd be happy. It goes to show that there are people in the world who care about what you say. That there are people in the world who will say "that person is interesting", even if you are a bit eccentric.

My favorite singer Gackt, a lot of people say he's weird, but a lot of people love him as well! So if he thinks "maybe I shouldn't have said that", people love what we said. It makes him who he is. And that's what people love about him.

Another classic example are Kanye West and Kim K. I don't really care that they're together, it doesn't bother me. But I read a lot a negative comments and I can only imagine the negativity these two might be feeling. I saw an article yesterday about Kanye explaining why he loves her. And I thought "that's so sweet of him!" But people were bashing them. Why? Why would you do that?

Some people are always quick to say "I wonder how long this relationship will last", but why? Why does that concern you?? Would you want someone treating you that way? When you say "I started dating again!" and they scoff and say "Well, it won't last long" and start listing all of your negative traits and the reason why your negative traits will cause it not to last long?

If you feel it won't last long, you don't have to announce it to the world. You can, but seriously, why? Will it heal your inner hate because you said it? Won't you just end up wanting to hear more about them?To those people, wouldn't they be the one who'll click on the next article about them and comment "I don't know why I clicked on this" and I'll think "yeah, not only that, but you even commented too"

In my opinion, let's be fair and say it's possible that that person as a deep yearning for what that person has, and because they don't have it, they have a hate for the people who do have it. Everyone wants to be happy. I truly believe everyone does. In some form or another. Everyone wants to be loved right. To know they belong somewhere. To know that someone understand them. But, and I say BUT, you cannot expect this. Because some people aren't at the stage yet. Yes, it's said we should give without expecting, but some people do.

Stop expecting all the time and be happy there's something you can give in the first place. I understand that it's nice to be given, it is. But what about that little bit of happiness you feel when you truly give.

It seems harsh, but if you give, don't expect the person you gave to will give you anything. It will literally help you not to get angry or be disappointed. It'll save you the heartache.

I'm sure some people may have mentally of "well, if they aren't gonna give me anything, then why should I give anything?"

Yeah. I can see how some people would have this mentality. If you aren't happy giving, then so be it. Don't give. I won't tell you to. Do you feel happy that I said that? lol

I'm not sure if the universe does this to help us learn, but if we expect, we don't receive, but why? I say not to expect, because from experience it SEEMS as if if I gave something, I haven't RECEIVED a thing. But no no hee hee, I have. But they come in forms that seem like simple things.

For example, I could have given something I thought was big, and in return I get a ride to a place I needed to get to for an appointment. Or I late for my bus, but my bus was late, and so in reality I was on time.

Those seem like simple things, but they aren't! Those are coincidence!

To the people who want to give, and want to receive, stop expecting and give. Then pay attention. You'll see what I'm talking about. Even if it's a month later, you'll have a good day and you'll be surprised, you'll probably think "today is going so well" and likely forgot about the thing you gave.

This ties in with the whole time delay thing here on Earth.

I don't speak out of my neck here, I speak from experience. Look, I think like a lot of you, I'm just opened to the possibilities.  And honestly, the possibilities are endless. :3

This was longer than expected!

Well, the sky's the limit.

Smile. You deserve to be happy. No matter what okay~

Mon

Also, to my friend lol I read your comment. You're silly :)
