When I have the opportunity to listen to clients in sessions, one thing that I realize is one, we take ourselves way to seriously, and two because of that we lose the sense of play. Life is love and when that understanding is a realization, then you will see the play and the parts in it. When you observe children playing, they have fun, create rules, and then throw them away, and play a new game. But as adults we seem to be more concerned with getting, making, wanting, expecting, needing, the other, or trying to full fill a dream of marriage, a house, security for life, and yet because most of us are living from selfishness, we neglect our hearts. The desire in your heart will always debunk the mind. So lets say your will wants to live out this lifestyle, and living that lifestyle takes work, effort, and why you are working and efforting along the way you find yourself obsessed by the dream. This obsession leads to little lies here and there, manipulating others, lusting to get what you want, and destroying friendships, families, in the process of getting this dream done. So now you have achieved the dream and you look back and no one is around, it took ten years to get there, and all you have to show for it is this, pain you caused, struggle, and humiliation of yourself and others, which is greed (Lack). So you have the dream and yet you are unhappy but why. You have the new cars, mansion, dream, and yet you are sad inside, not happy. Maybe this true or not.

Now your heart desire comes in and says, “Okay now its time to be happy.” Well you have to look at that, see what happiness is, and the mind thinks well I have to hold on to this, because happiness means I have to let all this go. Well out of no where the job goes, money, the home, the partner who was only with you for fame and co-dependence is gone, and so now all the people you pushed over, cheated, lied, and all the ret of it are with you. Your pride is wounded, your greed is seen for what it is, and you are alone, the same type of aloneness you were racing from with the dream. So you can now look at your hearts desire and see what it yearns for. Come to find out it wants to open a place for people who need help finding a job, you decide to help people, the non-profit moves quickly, people are being helped because you decided to help others. You feel light, laugh lots, and play more. You have a partner who loves you as you are, and you love them. It was never about the conditioned dream, it was always about service and helping and loving; that makes the world go round. Our world is in a state of need.

The need you can provide by loving your heart and yourself. From there you will discover play, laughter, service, and help. We live in humanity and we need each other. Mother earth has provided so much abundance for us and we have taken her for granted. Now we must give back to her and we can only do that through playing.

So rewrite your scripts with yourself first and the rest will fall into place.
