My Question To You Just about everyone I know is metaphysically-oriented, so I regularly hear a lot of powerful ideas. As a result, I’m always making mental and written notes. A professional hypnotist coming out of a painful divorce recently said to me, “WHERE THERE IS NO FORGIVENESS, THERE IS A KARMIC TIE.” She continued to elaborate, saying, “I certainly don’t want to have to reincarnate and go through this again, so forgiveness is at the top of my priority list. If I can truly let him go with forgiveness, the next time around he’ll have to find someone else with a karmic configuration matching his own need of learning.” I agreed. My questions to you: Is there anyone in your life you have not forgiven? Do you accept that if you do not forgive, you will come back together to work it out in a future life? While recently enjoying a Sunday afternoon talking with several friends on our deck, one woman expressed how angry she was at someone we all knew. Another woman said, “Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis once said to a friend, ‘ONLY AMATEURS STAY MAD.’” That statement got the attention of everyone within listening distance and generated an enjoyable discussion. My question to you: Who are you mad at? While driving into the city, Tara and I were talking about a friend in the entertainment business who had just created, filmed and edited a music video for $4000. People in the business guessed the budget at $80,000 when it was accepted for air play. “At least he got a lot of experience,” Tara said. I felt he’d been ripped off and said, “EXPERIENCE IS WHAT YOU GET WHEN YOU DON’T GET WHAT YOU WANT.” I wish I could remember who said that so I could credit them properly. But all too often I’ve rationalized similar situations with that kind of line. My question to you: Is there an area of your life where you’re not being compensated appropriately? If so, what can you do to get what you want? “WE MOVE TOWARD PLEASURE AND AWAY FROM PAIN, THAT’S JUST WHAT IS,” said a female therapist friend in a recent e-mail. We were exchanging ideas about handling an unpleasant situation. My questions to you: Is there anything in your life you’re pulling away from? What are you moving towards? Is that where you really want to go? “YOUR SOUL IS ALWAYS NUDGING YOU TOWARD GROWTH CHOICES,” said a male friend over lunch. I laughed in response and agreed. The words “growth choice” or “growth opportunity” are New Age buzz words for coming face to face with a situation that will be challenging, which means you’re going to be tested. Your decision generates an opportunity and the outcome provides the lessons. My question to you: Is your soul calling you to make any growth choices at this time? I’ll leave you with this thought: GROWTH RESULTS FROM RISK, WHICH IS A MATTER OF COMMITTING TO ACTIONS YOU CAN’T CONTROL. * * * * * TO RECEIVE THIS “Master of Life” COLUMN WEEKLY AT YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS, CLICK ON “REPLY “ AND TYPE “SUBSCRIBE” IN THE SUBJECT AREA.
