The Only Thing, part one

In the discussion at last Wednesday's meeting, we addressed Abraham's favorite saying: "The only thing that matters is that I feel good."

There was concern that if we only do what feels good we would lie around all day reading and listening to music and none of the necessaries of life like bill-paying or working would get done.

I've heard this concern before, so I thought we would put it to a test.

For the next two weeks, I encourage you to say to yourself upon arising: The only thing that matters today is that I feel good.

As you move through your day, notice how you are feeling. Abraham says that our inner guidance responds to what we are thinking, saying or doing and lets us know if we are on track with our overall goals. Our inner guidance speaks to us through our feelings. If you feel good, you are on the right track. If you feel bad, you are thinking, saying or doing something that is not in alignment with you goals and overall purpose. Your job is to notice whether you feel good or bad. If you feel good, keep on going! If you feel bad, change what you are thinking, saying or doing until you feel good. Then keep going!

That was a really long explanation for the simple task of going through your day feeling good, and changing your thoughts, words or actions if you feel bad.

Will the world and our lives fall apart if we do this for two weeks?

I don't know. Let's find out.
