“The purpose in life, then, is not the gratifying of appetites nor of any selfish desires, but it is that the entity, the soul, may make the earth, where the entity finds its consciousness, a better place to live.” -Edgar Cayce Reading 4047-2

This is our task, whether we consciously take it on, or not. How do we improve our world? What is our individual role?

When I was growing up we were taught to be polite, share our prosperity with others, take care of our possessions and give. It was supposed to be better to give than to receive.

The teachings now are to fill up your own self with what you need first, love, happiness, prosperity etc. and then you will be able to give from your overflow. Watch your thoughts-they create your world.

I think people are confused…….I know I am.  And when I get confused I have to keep it simple.

Simple for me is to stop judging others-I don’t have enough information to make an intelligent judgment.

Spread goodwill-when I’m happy around others, they become happier also and that spreads out like water.

Take care of what is mine to do-take care of my body and surroundings/recycle/buy organic/donate to charities/slow down/garden/teach/cook/enjoy life to the fullest/loving relationshiops/appreciation of beauty and artistic pursuits.

If I manage to do these things and to stay in the moment (not that easy) I find such a peace pervades my life, and it is not a flat peace, but an enlightened or joyous peace.

I am giving up the need to know everything.  I am accepting the beauty of my own life.
