We are here to dismantle the opinions of a presumed self centered in thoughts thinking of themselves. To think such thoughts center  our self is to miss that thoughts are centered in thoughts.  To try to create or maintain this self creation of reality in thought is to think obsessively about thinking. This false sense of self is a lie and so has “our truth” and “our reality opposed to actual truth as reality. We can think all sorts of things that are not true and think of them as truth but not without causing effects that destabilize our experience by causing stress.  Thoughts manifest the effects we feel. Feeling disconnected is feeling thoughts that have no basis in reality as the basis of reality. This backward-addictive thinking vainly claims we are or can be disconnected from reality as a distraction to avoid reckoning with inescapable Truth as Reality. Wearing these sorts of thoughts bears on our psyche and wears us inside out and has not been a good look for humanity. .

An Absolute Source is Perfect Peace since there are no sliding scales that rise and fall or parts to conflict with any or all in that which does not change.   An Absolute State of Being remains stable as our thoughts change. Imagine That. Imagine stability is our basis rather than chaos, conflict and calamity.

This episode focuses on the Third Step of Alcoholics Anonymous as we continue to expand our conversation to include an Absolute Source as a non-negotiable or optional State of Being that we and all things share equitably, indivisibly and indiscriminately as our common nature.

There cannot be any exceptions to what is Absolute - so only wrong thoughts - thought of as truth are depressing, demeaning and degrading.  This line of irrational thought also includes right thoughts imagined to be wrong. A lie is a lie in any direction. There seems no end or escape from any thought or its consequences that we insist on restarting over and over again.  When freedom to choose condemns us it is not freedom but choices imagined real that are condemned since they have no basis other than the right we have to think wrong can be or is right.

Reading our body language is easy when we’re not hell bent on turning the clearly posted sign's upside down. Images in mirrors are always reversed so when imagination is thought of as reality we walk backward witnessing only the results of the collision course we have chosen to turn our back to and act as though life is complicated rather than be bothered to notice it is simply the premise of our thinking.

We are designed to survive - and thrive. Love does not take so cannot create misgivings. It is mistaken thinking that is the source of our problems - especially when we think it is not.

We Know We Know and are Aware We Are Aware.  This is worth mentioning, discussing and admitting.  Our thoughts are naturally aligned with Truth even while manifesting effects that consume our attention and mistakenly seem to be all we can do. Not so.
