A
Curious Dream
I had a short, but strange and curious
dream several nights ago. It was very vivid, and I knew it held an
important message. As our dreams often do.
In the dream Spirit gave me a gift, an unusual gift. It was a
small multi-colored ball. Small enough to easily hold in the palm of
your hand, or carry around in your pocket or purse. It had a pattern
similar to the ball used in American soccer games. Or, for those of
you in Europe, I believe you call those games "football."
This is the curious part of the dream. If I made a mistake I
could simply squeeze the ball and the mistake would be erased
forever. My life would start over anew.
Pretty neat trick, don't you think?
Of course we all make "mistakes." But Chief Joseph has often said
there are no mistakes. We've never done anything "wrong."
Here's Chief Joseph.

Humans have a bad habit of beating up on themselves whenever they
do something "wrong."
But -- think about this, friends -- what is "wrong," what is
"right," what is "good," what is "bad?"
You have a long litany of "sins" you either committed or barely
managed to avoid committing.
When your higher selves decided to incarnate in your current
physical bodies at this fascinating time of growth for your race and
your planet, they knew exactly what they were doing.
They did not intend for you (the human aspect of themselves) to see
if you could get life "right."
There is no right or wrong. There is no good or bad. There is
nothing -- nothing at all -- except experience.
Experience in consciousness.
Consciousness is what it's all about. Period. Nothing more.
Nothing less. Nothing else matters.
It's all good!
That is how we see you from our perspective. That is how your
higher selves see you. It's all good. You are all good!
In your choice to incarnate at this amazing time of
transformation, we applaud you. We love you. We admire your courage.
We respect your willingness to be in the vanguard of this new era,
the likes of which the universe has never seen.
When you get past your self-imposed limitations and perceptions
of what you're "supposed" to be, do, and have, you will see
yourselves as we see you -- as Gods in human form. Gods who have
temporarily forgotten who they are. But Gods nonetheless.
Friends, John's little soccer ball is a beautiful metaphor for
the way you can live your human lives.
You are not shackled by your past -- the past of this lifetime or
any other lifetime. The past -- or what you call the past -- is an
illusion. It's part of your illusion of linear time.
But you can transcend that illusion when you remember who you are
-- God. With God every breath you take is a new beginning --
literally a new life.
Every inhalation renews and revitalizes every aspect of your
being, physical and spiritual. (This is often the basis of what you
call spontaneous or instant healing.) Every exhalation releases all
of your "past" -- all of your "mistakes." They simply cease to
exist.
You are reborn with every breath. Rejoice in knowing that. You do
not have a little soccer ball to renew yourselves. But you do have
an even more powerful tool of renewal -- your breath. Your breath is
literally the breath of life, the breath of renewal.
Breathe out the old. Breathe in the new. Rejoice. All is well.
