Energy And The Future

As long as you are alive you have a future. In this future, there is as much energy available to you as you want. Cast your mind back over the things you have accomplished. Since energy can be neither created or destroyed, it follows that all this energy is still available to you.

Healing is not a game you play with forces outside of yourself. It is a game you play with forces inside yourself. These forces are your attitudes, your self concept; the sum total of how you see yourself.

Since you are reading this, your heart must be beating. Obviously then, since you exist in this moment it is reasonable to assume you have a future. What happens in this future is determined by yourself and no one else.

Outside factors have an effect on you, and everyone has limitations. We have complete choice over how we respond to outside factors; and limitations are defined by the fact we are mortal. Your human-ness gives you both strength and weakness.

By accepting your human-ness, by accepting you cannot know and do everything, you are free to make choices that create the future you want. No one is destined to a future of pain and suffering, doom and gloom. Apart from you, no one has the ability to know what is good for you. Only you can know. There is only you inside yourself to experience your process. Anyone else's opinion is just that, an opinion, a belief that cannot be proven and has no foundation past the lips that utter it.

Few people grasp the opportunity to consciously create their own future.. At times, I have blown the opportunity. Energy is there in as much abundance as you choose. If you are in pain as you read this, you may find my statements preposterous. This is okay. Even if you find the idea ludicrous, do your best to entertain it as a possibility.

If you do, you will notice a subtle shift in your consciousness. The more you ponder on it, the more possible it seems and suddenly, it starts to happen. Your energy level goes up and stays up. And as it does, the possibilities for a healthy and happy future go up also.

For most of us, the future is a far-away place somewhere over the horizon. This is especially true if you were raised in an abusive environment. It never seems to be quite real; unlike the past which never seems to go away. Realize you are the creator of your future and you have many choices available to you.

As for energy, think back over the past 10 years and make a list of all you did, large and small, good and bad. Then imagine all the energy you used to accomplish them. This energy, and as much more as you want is available again in your future. Energy is limitless. There is more energy available than all the drops of water in every ocean or grains of sand in every desert.

What is more, energy is free. Spiritual law says that energy follows thought. Therefore to think, speak and act healing and happiness even in the midst of tribulation means you are creating your future. Conversely, act, speak and think defeatism in the midst of tribulation and you are still creating your future.
