Living in the light – The key to having life work

One day I was a little discouraged. All I could see were my circumstances. I was negative and a little grumpy. Then I went to lunch and ran into an old friend. It was such a joy to see each other. All of a sudden, my happiness and aliveness came back. I was back in the light.

The shift from my being out of the light to my being back in the light was so fast and so dramatic, it gave me a great opportunity to compare the two states.

When you are in the light, you are in the experience of love. You are happy, alive, and free. The circumstances of life have no power over you. You have a very positive energy and great things happen around you. When you are in this state, life works incredibly.

The opposite state is one of fear and upset. When you are in this state, you shut down inside. The circumstances of life have total power over you. You have a very negative attitude and negative things happen around you.

Whichever state we are in, we think we are observing the truth of the way life is, but we’re not. We are experiencing life in a very particular way. Our experience of life then shapes our actions and determines what happens around us.

How we experience life at any moment seems to be the result of our circumstances, but it’s not. It’s the result of how we relate to our circumstances. No circumstance has power over you. Just look at how you feel when you are in the experience of love. Your circumstances are irrelevant. Instead of life being on top of you, you are on top of life. Our circumstances only have the power that we give them.

We give our circumstances power by fighting and resisting them. We have been taught and we believe that happiness and upsets come from outside of ourselves. We then go through life fighting, resisting, hanging on and withdrawing.

We do this in a subconscious attempt to make life be a particular way. We think that this will somehow bring us the happiness that we seek but it doesn’t. It destroys love and creates suffering.

The key to the mastery of life is to let go of your circumstances and focus on living in the experience of love. As you do this, you see life clearly and become very effective. You also enter the realm of love, joy, peace, happiness and miracles.

You have the ability to create a life more wonderful than anything you can imagine. You just need to know how. To learn the steps, go to www.masteryoflife.com. Attend our workshops and listen to the Mastery of Life Audio Course.
