When I was ‘working’ with horses… particularly the ‘very sensitive’ (very fear full) animals… I learned a technique… It was to ‘be around the animal’ with ‘soft eyes and minds’. The ability to ‘soften the edges’ of the animal ‘I was with’, through ‘my’ quiet mind and hand. This allowed me to ride with ‘no fear’ and the hyper animal can ‘relax into ‘my fearless being’… never a good idea for a fearful rider to ride a fearful horse… disaster usually follows… lololol
So I was looking at ‘my scary stuff’… that may occasionally cross my mind with this ‘technique of Soft Eyes’… God is relaxed and Sees All With Soft Eyes. So taking this ‘technique’ for ‘frightened’ horses… and applying it to ‘my frightened thinking’… seems like an ‘interesting experiment’…
Just Looking at the process of taking ‘a ‘fearful’ story’… like… ‘cancer’… ok… so I have projected cancer… and I get acim wants ‘me to see all with Love’… there is ‘fear’ here initially. So the Process of ‘learning to love any story’… See With Soft Eyes… this will allow myself to STOP SCARING my self… First to See I am ‘fearing something’… then to take ‘this to God to SEE differently’… (God has nothing to do with ‘this dream’… or ‘outcomes’… God just helps ‘Me’ to bring a ‘fear to Peace’… IRREGARDLESS of the ‘outcome’… ‘ego is all over outcomes’, God has only One Outcome….That I Love…’outcomes re irrelevant to God’… lololol
As a kid… in the ‘soft light’ of dusk… I found that if you ‘looked directly’ at an object… it would disappear… but if you looked just off center at the same object… it was Clearly Seen…. (Sounds like a ‘life lesson’ to me)…
While in school, I learned of the area on the retina of the eye called the ‘fovea centralis’. This small area on the retina only contains cone cells only (cones allow color to be seen in Light Only).
So the fovea centralis (latin…”main pitfall”) is the part of the retina that is ‘triggered’ with a direct focus of ‘my eyes’ on an object. And, twilight… when ‘light disappears’ … we cannot See an image Clearly by looking directly at it… If I allow ‘my gaze’ (Soft Eyes) to look slightly off of the intended sight target…I can see it Clearly. ‘The Pitfall’… ‘my direct focus’… instead of ‘soft eyes’… the ‘soft eyes of a ‘fearless God’…
so the lesson… when I fear… don’t attempt to ‘fix on the fear’ directly…Ask to See the situation with God’s Eyes…. Soft Eyes…Look at any judgments ‘I am making’ in any area of my life… Where am I Judging?
When I look directly at any ‘fearfull story’…I am unable to See it Clearly. Look at it in the Light (With God). Where am ‘i’ Blocking My Light… if I am not ‘loving’ (wanting something to be different), ‘i’ am judging ‘some thing’… ‘my judgments’ Block My Light’…
For me…the two ‘really scary forgiveness opportunities’… forgiving ‘a foreclosure’ story’… and ‘body altering’ stories’…. LOLOL…. For these are the ‘cancers’’in my mind’, ‘I’ need to Clear ‘my mind’ With God… With Love… acim says repeatedly… the Only ‘thing’ that needs to be Healed.. ‘my mind’….
So the Clearings are looking around the ‘story of cancer’… where am I Blocking God’s Love… Where am I harboring ‘icky thoughts’… what areas of ‘my thinking’ are not LOVE. Where am I not Trusting God?…
There was also a memory of learning to ‘work and ride’ horses with ‘soft eyes’… actually taking ‘fearfull animals’… and ‘quieting ‘them’ down with ‘my soft eyes’… Seeing ‘fear disappear out there in a horse’… as ‘I Clear my fear’ With God’s Soft Eyes…
So as I Clear These Thoughts… Cancer becomes less and less fearfull… dare ‘I’ say… Totally Peace Full…
And the Clearing must occur in All Areas of My Life… in Thought… Forgiving my self all ‘thinking’… and since ‘cancer’ initially occurred with much fear… Soft Eyes has allowed me to Process ‘my thinking’ without scaring ‘my self’ to death… such a Devine Plan.
Holy Spirit… Allow Me to See Past any ‘apparent problem’… and Focus on the Areas of my Life that continue to Block My/Your Love and Light… So Today… Let Me See With Soft Eyes… Much Love Eternally…
I so love this, Calico. The softening of my energy creates a whole new peaceful atmosphere. Thanks a million for this beautiful reminder! BIG LOVE TO YOU
