Gifts Come As Awareness

Challenges in one's life are for gaining awareness. All challenges deliver awareness, not only the most difficult ones. Every day, a gift of awareness appears, exactly the next one that is needed. No day goes by without one or more opportunities appearing. For the most challenged, there are gifts galore.

People who deny their darkness, miss many opportunities to expand their awareness. Ghosts from the past appear, to deliver memories of the conditions that were not completed. When mental memories arise, they are for disturbance to any condition that denies unresolved concerns. Completing the change in awareness, that can be delivered by that challenge, is the next most important task to be addressed. Every challenge in your life needs final closure. If you are now incomplete about any old memory, complete it, as a step to awakened awareness. Why? Because this is what disturbs your natural condition of complete happiness.

Completing the distant or recent past can be as easy as accepting the situation and giving up guilt. It can also be done by talking to those beings who were involved, and telling them, "I'm sorry". Or, giving them a chance to tell you the things they were upset about. Listening to someone's complaints, allows them to be heard. It is the most important part of conflict resolution. Listening also tells you how to deal with the circumstances that went negative.

How can you be more aware? Listen! Act as though the decisions you made were less thoughtful than they might have been, and give the "other" the opportunity to tell you how they are feeling about this. Preaching to them delivers no confidence about getting a message across to you. Can you be quiet and only listen? No defense is the best approach. No defense tells them you care about their point of view, even if your mind doesn't concur with it. Freedom of choice goes both ways. Allow them their decisions, and be grateful for their contribution to your new awareness.

Conflicts are never ended when one cannot accept the other's contribution, or their concern about a different point of view. Happiness for both parties is the key to making a leap in consciousness.  Peace on Earth begins with inner peace. Create a disturbance, and you disturb that peace.

Another way to give more confidence to the one being dismissed by your opinion, is to thank them for their point of view. This gives them acceptance, and gives you the release of their negative feelings about the circumstances that began the disagreement. Be humble. Be gracious, be natural. Give healing to all concerned by not taking the position of an opinionated observer. Give the "other" an opportunity to discuss their grievance. Heal the conflict with more love for them than the mind would otherwise give.

Chatter that delivers these kinds of messages, comes from your mental collective of chatter, only because more awareness can come from completion of the disagreement. Challenges of this kind are not only the "other" persons's problem. As long as there is no mental closure in you, there's no completion. Complete disturbances from conflicting points of view by allowing yourself to accept the "other's" opinion. Change your attitude of non-acceptance to an attitude of acceptance.

No two think exactly the same about any circumstance. Both have many dances to dance. Circumvent dis-ease, by getting closure on the things the mind chatters to you about. Thinking negative thoughts, about anything, disturbs your natural way of being.

When there is no "other" to discuss the challenge with, change can come about by talking to a surrogate. Pick an object to talk to. A chair, a pet, a stuffed toy, or a friend. Anyone or any thing can be the disturbed "other" that attends the meeting. Talk to this "object" about your feelings. Give them the full story, and appeal to them for complete understanding. Give them the apology that you want for yourself. Call them by name, and tell them how much their forgiveness means to you.

Break-ups in conversation between good friends needs to disappear. It can, when you take full responsibility for healing the difficulty. No one can be blamed. No one can be mad. One of you must deliver the decisive comment that you are not disturbed, before the conflict can disappear in the "other's" mind.

Patience is needed, as most of you are needing to disperse many of these conflicts. New Age attitudes that deny anything that is negative defeats awakened awareness. Nothing is negative that can be seen as a gift of awareness. Awakened awareness comes to those who are not in denial of their own negativity. What you see in a situation is never the actuality of it. Caring for the "other" one's opinion, opens doors that are needing to be opened. You are the "other". It is you, caring for you, that heals.
