Born To Worry
Do you worry a lot? Many people do,
especially in the ever-changing, challenging climate of our planet
today.
John Cali
The list of things we worry about is huge: disease, war,
relationships, fuel prices, food prices, the economy, terrorism, our
families, our jobs, our bodies, what people think of us. The dreary
litany could go on forever.
The mass consciousness encourages us to worry because it believes
life sucks, and then we die.
Many of you know Emmanuel, the wonderful spirit guide channeled
by Pat
Rodegast. One of my favorite of Emmanuel’s quotes
goes like this: Worry is a socially acceptable form of distrust. (I’m
paraphrasing, as I don’t recall the exact words.)
Then there’s Mark Twain, one of my favorite authors, who said
near the end of his life, "I am an old man and have known a
great many troubles, but most of them never happened."
Chief Joseph says worry and guilt are two of the most useless and
debilitating emotions known to humans.
Let’s see what more Joseph has to say about worry.
Chief Joseph
Despite what many humans think, you were not born to worry. Nor
is worry the best use of your time and energy. It’s about the
worst.
The only reason you worry -- it doesn’t matter what or who you’re
worrying about -- is you don’t trust that life is good. You don’t
trust God, the Universe, will take good care of you. As Emmanuel
said, worry is a socially acceptable form of distrust.
What is the root of that distrust, whether in the mass
consciousness or in your own individual consciousness?
The root is forgetfulness. You’ve forgotten who you are. We are
here to remind you, to bring you back to the full remembrance of who
you really are.
These physical bodies you now occupy are but a tiny part of the
grander glorious being you all are. You souls, your higher selves,
do not worry. They know all is well.
When you think all is lost you are almost totally cut off from
your higher selves, from the joy, peace, and love you were meant to
be and to live in this incarnation.
It is entirely possible for you to live that joy, peace, and love
no matter what’s happening in your personal lives or the world
around you. But you cannot live that way if you are constantly
worrying. That’s such a negative vibration it drags you into an
ever-deepening depression.
Give most of your time and attention to all the good in your
personal lives, and in your world. There is far more good than what
you call evil. Far, far more!
But when you get caught in a downward spiral of worry it’s hard
to see the good. Instead of imagining the worst, why not imagine the
best? Or at least something better.
Life is good. It’s supposed to be fun. All problems eventually
resolve themselves. There are no sad endings. Only happy ones.
Worry is useless. Worry drags you down. Worry depresses you.
Worry is distrust on a grand scale.
If you could see, as we do, how good your lives really are, you
would never worry again. You would simply soar into a world of joy
and peace you never dreamed existed.
All is well.
P.S from John: "Coincidentally," this morning as I
was preparing to publish this newsletter, I came across this quote,
source unknown:
"You can tell the size of your God by looking at the size of
your worry list. The longer your list, the smaller your God."
