Jane Peranteau passed this on to me, and I pass it on to you as well.
[From Dreams, “Evolution,” and Value Fulfillment, Vol. 1, by Jane Roberts, Notes, Session 891.] Seth:
“I wish you a MERRY NEW YEAR, into which I hope you manage to insert a touch of light-heartedness now and then.
“Now if I were you, making a list of resolutions, my list would include feelings and attitudes. Things to do are well and good—very good indeed—but the feelings and attitudes are at least as important.
“I would not presume to make a list of resolutions for you. But in an imaginative endeavor, this is what I pretend I would list if I were you. Though this is a new year, there is nothing really new about the list.
“One: I will approve of myself, my characteristics, my abilities, my likes and dislikes, my inclinations and disinclinations, realizing that these form my unique individuality. They are given me for a reason.
“Two: I will approve of and rejoice in my accomplishments, and I will be as vigorous in listing these—as RIGOROUS in remembering them—as I have ever been in remembering and enumerating my failures or lacks of accomplishment.
“Three: I will remember the creative framework of existence in which I have my being. Therefore the possibilities, potentials, seeming miracles, and joyful spontaneity of Framework 2 will be in my mind, so that the doors to creative living are open.
“Four: I will realize that the future is a probability. In terms of ordinary experience, nothing exists there yet. It is virgin territory, planted by my feelings and thoughts in the present. Therefore I will plant accomplishments and successes, and I will do this by remembering that nothing can exist in the future THAT I DO NOT WANT TO BE THERE.”

Thank you. Very much appreciated. Except the last line. Due to collective consciousness and the laws of the system we inhabit, I fully expect there will be situations I don’t want in my future…including the how, when, why loved ones will exit this stage.
But the rest…perfect timing as far as I’m concerned. 🙂
Don’t be too quick to dismiss Seth’s thought, there. Bear in mind, everything takes place in one unified field. There are no accidents, therefore there can be nothing that doesn’t belong. our feelings may disapprove, but that doesn’t mean we’re fully informed. I think he’s saying there *same as elsewhere), accept what comes, in faith that it didn’t stem from malice or accident or bad design. In short, live in faith. I have found that my life got greatly easier when I finally abosrbed this truth.
