Lesson 7

I see only the past. ~ Lesson 7, ACIM

Lesson 7 points to what I have hinted at the last 6 days.

The reason for those first 6 lessons is because we see only the past.

I often talk about the human condition as like a bunch of grown children carrying around colostomy bags of 💩 that they see the world through.

The degree to which you are willing to address that bag and its leaky contents is directly tied to the possibility that you see clearly and therefore see more than just the past.

Most grown folks don’t see beyond that bag unless they are willing to get down and dirty with what’s bubbling up inside.

It’s painful.

It’s messy.

And it reveals what lurks deep in the shadows that most would prefer to keep under wraps.

For it foretells of change.

Change is also painful and messy to the one who feels safe and comfortable in the known.

Even if it (the known) feels like hell.

At least it’s less risky than the expanse of the unknown.

That is where many fall off.

This course has taken me many, many years of study to grasp the deepest truths.

It will take me a lifetime to master any of them.

The only reason I share any of this with you is to deepen in my understanding of the concepts.

I would love to hear your thoughts. How is this landing for you? What are you stepping into a week into 2025?
