On choices, changing choices…

The Light By Which To Act

Choices are important. They determine what you choose to create in your life. Ans experiences that choices he made seems not longer true or relevant. For this, he doubted himself.  He doubted because his choices did not become reality.  He felt like he wasted a lot of time.

Working through this inner struggle to get his choices clear, helped him to understand the creation process better:  choices are simply changing.  When you evolve and open up, your choices are evolving as well.  They reflect in a way your state of being in the now moment. He understands now that he can make choices on different levels.  He understands that it is necessary to let go of old ones to make space for new ones. New choices coming from a deeper soul level.

The next quote from a Tobias Q&A describes this understanding:

QUESTION FROM SHAUMBRA 6 (a woman at the microphone): Hi Tobias. For the last few months, I have had a lot of trouble making decisions. I make them (…) and the next day, the next week, it’s like, “Well no, that wasn’t the right choice.” I change my mind. I make another definite choice, and it keeps going around and around and around. And I talked to people today who are going through the same thing. Why can’t I make a decision and make it stick?

TOBIAS: Indeed. Excellent question (…)

Interesting phenomena. All Shaumbra are in a change energy. Your essence knows that there is constant state of flux. Your human self doesn’t really understand that yet. It’s uncomfortable with tremendous change taking place. You’re allowing yourself to practice conscious choice at the human mental level, and it’s wonderful because at least it’s showing you the flexibility that you have, showing you that you can indeed make choices. But it’s also showing you that you don’t have to get locked into anything. You’re not living on a linear path anymore.

You made a very interesting choice, for instance, about retirement, but you look at retirement as something that happens at a certain point in time and in a very linear calendar time. You change your mind, and it’s actually not your mind, but you change your perspective later because a part of you realizes that, in a sense, that was so yesterday, very old. And now with all of the rapid changes you realize that maybe there’s something else you want to do. You’re giving yourself the wisdom of the freedom of choice and change, which is very, very important. You’re taking off all the old restrictions.

But it’s also now at a different level forcing … not forcing, but encouraging you to make choices of what you would call the heart or the spirit rather than choices of the mind and just the human. There’s a tendency to focus first on choices that are very tangible and very much applied to the comfort of the human – choices about abundance or choices about health and very, very three-dimensional things. But then as you play with choices, you move up a level and then you start making choices of consciousness and spirit. At that point you realize you no longer really have to make choices of the human nature – the feeding, clothing and maintenance and protection of your human self – because those become quite incidental. The choices you make on a higher level will automatically take care of what we call the lower level needs.

All of this is trying to boost you up or move you up to very broad consciousness choices now. You’re actually on the right path, so to speak.

SHAUMBRA 6: Thank you.

Boat ornated for Loy Kratong.

 

Een vlaamse klassieker die deze morgen in mijn hoofd rondwaart. I like the melody and the lyrics. It is a song about never giving up. A song about keep going even when things look not always as you expect them to be. Doorgaan, no matter what. A song about hope and courage. Keep going on the road you had in mind. But have the courage to walk around the bend when a bend shows up. There will be even a straighter road

The song encourages to keep going:

Keep going in a speechless night,
Keep going with a wobbly certainty,
Keep going in a trench without light,
Keep going everytime you stand still,
naked in a hurricane.
Keep going when nobody expect you anylonger to keep going.
We ‘ll keep going until we are together.

 

“Hope is not the conviction that something will turn out well,
but the certainty that something makes sense,
regardless of how it turns out.”

~Vaclav Havel~

 

 

We zullen doorgaan (Ramses Shaffey)
We zullen doorgaan, met de stootkracht van de milde kracht
We zullen doorgaan, in de sprakeloze nacht
We zullen doorgaan, we zullen doorgaan
We zullen doorgaan, tot we samen zijn

We zullen doorgaan, met de weifelende zekerheid
Om door te gaan, in een sprakeloze tijd
We zullen doorgaan, we zullen doorgaan
We zullen doorgaan tot we samen zijn

We zullen doorgaan, met het zweet op ons gezicht
Om alleen door te gaan, in een loopgraaf zonder licht
We zullen doorgaan, we zullen doorgaan
we zullen doorgaan, tot we samen zijn

We zullen doorgaan, telkens als we stilstaan
Om weer door te gaan, naakt in een orkaan
We zullen doorgaan, we zullen doorgaan
We zullen doorgaan, tot we samen zijn

We zullen doorgaan, als niemand meer verwacht
Dat we weer doorgaan, in een sprakeloze nacht
We zullen doorgaan, we zullen doorgaan
We zullen doorgaan, tot we samen zijn
