Simply put, freedom and money are not connected. You might see a person with both, or a person with neither, but that's irrelevant. Just like the cell phone and lip gloss are not connected, even though a lot of people who use cell phones wear lip gloss.
I'm looking for new challenges, new horizons. I made a list of things I attracted into my life and achieved over the past 5 years (not a comprehensive list, but pretty good). Then a list of things I want to achieve over the coming five years.
It's all about Lila, the play of the Divine. In other words, the goals are not about feeding the little self, or the little ego (which can never be satisfied). It's about being a channel for Spirit/the Goddess/Lila. I truly believe that if we all made our choices based on love rather than fear, this world would be such a different place, I can hardly even imagine it. And why not? I do not believe Earth is a place we come in order to suffer.
Alan Watts says we should admire those people who create their own hells and then get lost in them, believing they are reality. He says, "Wow! Those are some incredibly brave souls."
I totally get what he's saying. I told Adam that he is in the Underworld, hanging by his ankles. It's his initiation, and whenever he's ready to be done with it, he is the one with the keys to set himself free. I am truly in awe of the power we have to create our reality.
And as Denis Waitley said, "A good life is just as much work and struggle as a bad life; it all depends on which one you would rather put your efforts on."
