How do you respond to suffering?

Suffering lies at the heart of creating life not absolutely attuned to our Source/Creator/Higher Power/God, etal., for our Source knows of no such thing as pain.

Essentially, it is an anti-God creation, if you will.  So, IF God is not the creator or initiator of pain, how does it get to be a HUman experience, eh?!!

I've learned in healing my pain creations that I have been the creator- always have  been and always will be!  YUK! 

I resisted this realization, yet, it is required of us if the pain is to, first, stop, and then, vanish from our experience.  I know this NOW.

Imagine what I write is TRUE for a moment...it changes every thing, does it not?

So, who does not experience this thing called pain? More importantly, how does one reconcile their ownership in creating the very thing they despise?

Inwardly, our Essential SELF has full and absolute ownership, it is a matter of humbling ourselves [and accessing our courage to be creators of our lives and destinies, if you will] so that our personal daily selves will choose to remember that which in Inwardly known.  Many call this healing, and it is a process.

Some processes are more on-point, and to-the-point in dealing with this consciously and effectively. 

Each day I encounter my pain, fear really, I recognize a gap from Love and MAI true nature has been encountered again, and I have (finally) disciplined myself to prioritize healing [transforming the energy core of the emanation expressing pain in my living]. 

Thus, I turn to SELFGnosis, apprise myself of the task, and I am done with it, freeing myself from this gap forever more. YEA! It takes my attention, and time but it is eminently worth it!

So, very little pain is at my door, esp. when I consider what I was encountering before.  I actually thought it was comforting to say, "Pain holds my hand,"  as I felt pain sitting at my side and holding my hand!  I guess there is wisdom in the saying, "Misery loves company."  Can you imagine that!!???

It is good to not be in that space (and misunderstanding anymore), very nice, indeed.

All to Love, Sharon

The Tarot cards are indicative of the eventual injunction from Inward knowing/Spirit to just "give it up - the resistance- and accept guidance from the wisdom that Indwells you.

The card on the left is Hanged Man - Alchemical Tarot by Robert Pace and the center card is from the Rider-Waite Deck.  Notice how they tell the same story, yet, differently.  Both are pregnant with informing by the symbology encoded in their designs.  I love symbology; it is so rich!
