Resistance is the greatest force working against the force of unconditional love (or goodness) for our-self and the-highest-good-for-all. This statement only requires your good discernment and not pointing out the obvious. If we don't have a feeling to resist, then there must be something to learn from the experience. What doesn't kill ya only makes you stronger right? Either way there is something to learn.
There is a statement: What we resist persists. It is so true. If we don't face what we're afraid to face, what we're afraid to do, what we hesitate to say, the pain we don't want to feel or cause... We're prolonging the inevitability of whatever it is our subconscious, or heart-intelligence, knows "we need" in order to have a greater awareness into our-self.
Years ago I had a dog I loved very much. One day he, for the first time in his 4 years, altered the trail we walked on everyday. For two weeks, I followed him to a pretty tree in a field along the woods, and we'd sit there for awhile each day. He immediately started digging a hole and would dig a little each time we went. He and I even got to spend a night there beneath the stars and moon.
After those two weeks an extremely traumatic experience occurred that I'd written about in a book I'd once thought I'd finish and publish. The bottom-line is when a third vet told us he'd never again live the wonderful life he had (knowing we had to euthanize him) I told the vet I knew exactly where we'd make his grave, because it seemed as if he chose it. The vet told me I was fortunate to have realized this.
Not the importance of where, specifically, to dig the grave. The awareness to piece together reality into a spiritual learning. It turned out to be the only place we'd ever been able to dig a hole big enough for a rat, let alone a 70+ pound dog. The grieving was intense, yet growing awareness aided my healing rather profoundly and relatively quickly.
Yes, I resisted plenty then and since. If I find my-self resisting something today, I'll try to look a little "deeper", face it, and make a decision either way. And I know who I am, and I know I'm here on earth with human qualities, and I know it's my choices that create the reality I live, and I want to continue to learn more about my abilities, and I want to continue writing another day.

Life 101 on Day 216 ~
I get it. What difference does it make to our life-experience to know it's some kind of illusion? We're still gonna have to deal with everything anyway, so perhaps a bit more on this today. And no, 216 is the number of days since I changed the name of my blog.
Well this does open up a way for me to begin trying to explain in a, hopefully, meaningful fashion. I'm sure we can all agree that planet earth is pretty magnificent in beauty, creatures, resources... And the explanation, about humans, we've all been "fed" is really educated-guess-work based on fear of the unexplainable. What can't be verified...you get it.
Be honest with yourself. Come on; for one thing why did "we" loose all the hair? So isn't our understanding, or the explanation, part of the illusion? Now add to that,"our" infancy in "our" willingness to start acknowledging the significance of our subconscious-mind. Let's imagine it holds the illusions that really aren't illusions. Well what are they?
What if it's knowledge? What if it's who you are? Are most people going to be able to handle hearing this? Well they are if they're waking-up. I say waking-up because how could any human on earth have all the knowledge we've can only imagine exists outside of earth.
Well how could someone begin to understand the unexplainable? Good question. How about you have faith in your gut-feelings? Of course there are going to be people that choose to lie to themselves about their gut-feelings, if they even have any. Do you let it affect you? Another awareness to work on isn't it?
This is YOUR life-experience and only you will expand your awareness of your-"Self". Our gut-feelings are significant when they're not "forced". If you look in the sky or see clouds, and see something significant, TO YOU, go with it. I make it sound so easy; it's not. It's not easy to "listen" to your gut, especially if your mind wants something different. And you'll find your way a whole lot sooner if you do listen to your gut, your heart. Trust me if you can.

Life 101 on Day 215 ~
What I wish to say today isn't really "out-there", yet why this may "appear" this way is because of "the source". I'm not a credible scientist, researcher, doctor or let's even say, the New York Times, or Los Angeles Times! These newspapers are one of our county's biggest in regards to the array of people who read and comprehend the majority of what's written. Not me ~
Well, like I said, I ain't "them", yet I won't hesitate to move forward. I've touched on our subconscious mind. Now, the next step may be to bring awareness to its importance: our subconscious mind gathers far more information than our conscious mind would be able to "handle". So we have heart-intelligence. Can I say that is our subconscious?
Our subconscious mind plays a MUCH bigger role in our lives than we, as a human species, yet give it credit for. Our mind does the "filtering" of information the heart literally cannot see, hear, smell...,yet is fully "aware" of. Remember those "laughed at" in their attempts to open the public's "eyes" (heart) to the subconscious-mind many decades ago?
People are waking up, we are beginning to place merit on our personal observation as evidence of a higher truth. My all-time favorite movie, "Rain Man", is a fictional account of reality in regards to the "mind" deferring to the "heart". Even though the movie first came out in 1988, it should be embraced, today, with awareness to the power of our silent-heart. Did Tom Cruise's character's highest good surface by his interactions with Dustin Hoffman's character's true nature? Interesting ~
The point here is what we see, hear, smell...is what it IS for "each" of us. And the actual mechanics of why and how are part of the mystery to our life-experience. To disregard this mortar between the layers is to deny yourself the opportunity of awareness into the greatest mystery mankind has avoided like the plague. OR scientists, doctors and researchers, in general, continue to waste valuable "time" focusing on idiotic, unimportant details that do NOT further man's evolution to the point we should be.
Is there a chance of the masses "standing-up-to" what's going on to recapture the highest good for all? Not until "we" get our-heads-out-of-the-sand!! Never stop realizing feelings are energy, and feelings of "hope" for the highest good FOR ALL is something mankind can do with it's brain at this point in time.
Keep passing this on. I should get accomplished at Facebook, Twitter and all, but I can't, so I will continue to ask y'all to please spread this important information mankind's silent-heart is desperate to hear for encouragement ~ that may yet have far-reaching affects in my lifetime.

Life 101 on Day 212 ~
This life-experience is becoming more interesting isn't it? We've simply not even scratched the surface of the iceberg, and can I fully rise to the occasion? Well...can we; that'a more the question. Because we're all in this together. I know that's as difficult to comprehend as life being an illusion. And that's only just being unsurfaced, here, in relation to our life-experience.
Do you see what a significant role our subconscious-mind plays in our everyday life? Does that fact even affect you enough to pause for a moment in utter stillness? It should, as perhaps some of y'all may be aware. That brief moment of stillness is "communicating" with you. That is the silence that expands with awareness. And in that silence does our heart share wisdom.
Nearly ten years ago I was first exposed to Ho'oponopono in an intense workshop, yet the true awareness took years to surface to my conscious-mind. Ho'oponopono is actually an ancient healing practice, in the pacific islands, used to "make things right". It basically places the core of everything to our subconscious-mind's ability to "make things right".
Yet we've got to be careful of jumping ahead of ourselves.The awakening, alone, can have "earthly-affects" versus "spirit-affects". Oh my goodness, how to explain without saying it incorrectly. Well, as I've begun to master the art of silence, I've come to realize how our mind interrupts, like a child, and drives us to act in a real-life "dream-state" ~ the illusion, see ~
Once we've accepted our spirit is separate from our body with abilities, a personality, and a mind with abilities, it's easier to accept we are so much more. And haven't churches been telling us it's some "God"? Somewhere, somehow mankind didn't know how to get "the people" to listen and behave in accordance with natural-law (what governs the universe and evolution).
Then mankind began to fight like children, then killing and fighting like adults. Okay, I'm trying to calm down, and I do appreciate evolution takes time, and I'll also say that's an excuse. "Yea, but we elect people to serve our best interest" bla, bla. Okay the blood's boiling again! I can't imagine I could live to see mankind join hands with Ho-oponopono to save our mother-earth, yet something must stop this out-of-hand insanity on earth before we destroy it forever. Maybe the aliens will "rescue" us ~ smile; it's a thought.
I'd say I'd best stop for another day. Hit me with your best shot; I'm feelin' ready. Come on; I can take it as well as I can give it. Without forthright, honest, up-front communication how is this ball going to gain momentum?

Life 101 on Day 210 ~
Understanding why each and every experience in life is relative IS to understand why life is merely an illusion of sorts. We know we each hear, see, smell... exactly the same "thing" which passes through our body's lifetime of "filters" making each thing uniquely different. Does that make sense?
And that's also why a book, a movie, a song... can have a different affect on us years later. I know we're familiar this this concept, yet how many of us can comprehend why this is true? I understand why it's difficult to comprehend life is an illusion of sorts. This same concept is exactly why two people may experience something identical with a myriad of emotions on top of the subconscious "messages" our silent-heart stores.
And for that matter, why one person's worst drama could be as dramatic as another's worst drama. It all makes sense.
And this is precisely why mankind would be best served by mastering a form of meditation that allows ones conscious mind to transcend thought. There is something for everyone when it comes to some form of meditation. The greatest religions are based on truths found within us all, and religion has brainwashed good people into believing "it" comes from outside them.
But who's going to "hear" this unless they're ready? Exactly. What to do. There's plenty of unrest happening and I can feel the energy building. It's going to be fascinating to experience. I'm VERY thankful my children and grandbabies are in my town; a very good reason for me not to leave. Why? Because family or community is the most important aspect of life on earth.
And "miraculously" each of our life-experiences somehow got my immediate family together. Argue, if you want, that it wasn't some magic or unknown energy, but it is as it is only because of our individual actions, likes, dislikes, bla, bla. The magic is the mortar between the layers, and it's very visible to the subconscious mind in the least. So when you realize your motar, your life will shift ~
And art, music, dogs, and meditation are tops on my awareness-meter. It's understanding the vibrations that sets us free. And knowing we're doing the best we can is all you can do. Growing awareness is what matters in the grand scheme of life on earth. Without growing awareness we're stagnant, and man, do we know how much that stinks.

Life 101 on Day 207 ~
Okay, I get it; life on earth is seemingly complicated, stressful, not a piece- of-cake; and a hilly journey if it's always one-thing-after-another to concern us. But that's what life on earth is supposed to be. That's why we have families and communities. Evolution of the human race got swept up in the tidal-wave of believing wealth made you better, somehow.
Who'd want to hear we're caught up in the illusion of money? Pretty difficult to enjoy the experience of life on earth today if we don't have ample money for our desires, sustaining the home we want with adequate food and medical care. And we can't change this, so why not try letting go of desire?
And at this point in evolution, there isn't much we can do except to embrace the notion that seems too ridiculous to be more than mere words: we are a spirit within a body. Our spirit has the heart-intelligence we need to make it through this experience while holding on to who-we-are inside this shell.
Do you believe your desires come from your heart or your mind? If it's a desire from your silent-heart-intelligence, you can be certain it's not materialistic, but a direction your spirit wants you to go for the highest-good: music, medicine, food cultivation, transportation, creation without greed. Oh here I go; sounding like it IS the ego-ic mind that is the opposite of good.
So let's get real. Evolution of our species, if that helps, has gone so far in the wrong direction (just look at where "we" are overall). "We" are a pathetic joke for what "we've" done to the masses. It's laughable, really, that "we" havent accepted the spirit within our personality, our abilities, and our bodies.
So I guess, I'll focus on that another day. Our spirit is our silent-heart. Our spirit drives us to survive, our spirit desires our happiness through connection with others in the realization of reverence to the mystery of life.

Life 101 on Day 204 ~
And I had wondered how I was going to fit writing this into my life again. I laugh at myself; writing this is a huge chunk of who I am. So why did I ever think I'd stop in the first place? Thank you for helping me see this. And I'm already having things to address with y'all:
Of course looking within ourselves takes "time" you haven't made time for in the past, for a variety of "good" reasons. These "reasons" are simply part of the bigger issue humans can't escape until they're ready to accept there are simple aspects to patterns we all follow within our personality. And NO, we're not going to spend time dissecting ourselves.
Noticing ourselves in the "NOW" or the present moment of life takes a nano-second, but it requires honest consciousness of your responses, your reactions, or your present attitude. Only you will notice patterns creating the life you live. Some of us believe we're content with the "NOW" ~ and great!
And if not, you've GOT to look within yourself somehow. Sitting in calm silence may feel like a waste of valuable time, but I can practically guarantee it's because you can't stop thinking long enough to feel the wisdom in silence. It does not happen "over-night", and it does happen with no expectations.
I'd written about actually feeling the calm or peace in your heart-muscle area. Another way I've since read is to "soften the belly". Whatever works. When we can actually feel our belly soften, we probably have no concerns at the time. And of course silence "speaks" to us in ways only you will know.
Facing the reality of our lives IS so incredibly important, because it requires that we know who we are without clever denial. Ooh, now that's a touchy subject that may tweak some minds, so hey that's why I'm here I guess.
