Some years ago, I began reading A Course in Miracles. I did not finish, but some of what I learned has stayed with me and I feel I will pick it up again and start from the beginning.
One of the lessons states:
“I could see peace instead of this”
It is lesson 34 and can be applied anytime you “see” something that elicits judgment, fear thoughts, impatience, etc.
It popped into my mind recently.
I connect with the word, “could.”
It’s a reminder that I can choose again. It starts me on the journey of potentially embracing another perspective regarding the unfolding situation. It’s enough of an opening to begin laying the foundation of change and conscious ownership of my choices. “Could” is the first step. And with enough “coulds” it can eventually become, “I see peace instead of this.” But today, I begin with, “could.” I hope you’ll join me. Namaste♥
