Hello All,

I have intimate family members. I do focus more on their lives, and their days, than others. After all, we have chosen to travel together, and for good purpose. They are part of my intensive classroom.

That said, my view of "My Family" has changed.

My family has become whoever I am with in the moment, looking at their eyes, accepting a relationship with them for however long our encounter may be, choosing to be generous, kind, understanding, and fair in all circumstance, and for whatever I do not understand forgiving this away.

This is no easy task, yet one that just makes good sense to me, demonstrates Jesus teaching of "Love One Another," and causes me to feel Blessed. I feel a sense of abundance, feel energized, motivated, and whole when I make this choice, and follow through. What I speak becomes words not my own, what I do becomes effortless, and the outcomes I receive validate my decision.

The difficulty of this choice is letting go of all control, ending all wish to manipulate, and forgiving away any desire to convince, influence, or teach. In other words I simply choose to recognize another as myself, a Child of God, and do nothing more. What we do together become superfluous, what we are together is known as magnificent.

I think I know what you mean, it's like "we are the world" and our family is, well anyone and everyone. The shift to Higher Conscioness is more apparent now. Not separate countries, states, families, etc.

Nice phraseology.

it came to me one day, we ARE the world. Whatever the world is, is based on mass consciousness of the people in it. Doesn't matter what the leaders/government do or don't do, we don't have to wait for someone to make a law, or change one, or make peace with other countries, etc. to live it ourselves. Actually, this isn't really an original idea, I once read that Edgar Cayce was once talking to a man who was going on and on about "the state of the world" and how terrible everything was, governments, wars, economy, etc (and this was 1930-40's) and Cayce supposedly said to him just be the best person YOU can be and live the best life you can and "the rest of the world" will take care of itself.
Makes sense.

I remember on one of my trips to Germany speaking to a German citizen. He asked me my opinion of the Euro. I told him I found individuality a divine right, and felt culture, language, life choices, and more were tread on when people were forced to accept they should want to do and be like everyone else.

I still feel the same way.
