Quotes on Being Responsible & Responsibilities

[spiritualcookie]

Finding fun is the most responsible thing you can do!

- Abraham

[Paradise-on-Earth]

Your work is to laugh more, and play more, and cruise more, and bask more, and meditate more.
Your work is to go to the beach more, dangle your feet in the bay more.
Your work is to do the things that soothe you into alignment more.

You’ve done the work that has put it into vibrational escrow!
The work of your life has been happening all along.

Abraham

[Paradise-on-Earth]

I don't care....

What do you mean, "you don’t care"?
-Well, I don’t mean I don’t care about anything, because there are a lot of things I do care about. I care about feeling good. And I care about clarity.
I care about being in the receptive mode.

I care about being an uplifter. I care about presenting all of myself in any moment in time. I care about being of value. I care about feeling good. I care about this magnificent environment.

I care about what’s in my vortex. I care about what’s in your vortex. I care about everything that you desire. I care about all good things coming to me, and to you. I care about us all living happily ever after.

But what I don’t care about are conditions that I cannot control. What I don’t care about are things that take me out of my alignment. What I don’t care about, meaning I don’t have momentum about it anymore.

I don’t care, it’s not a hook for me. It’s not a knee jerk response to me. I’ve trained myself to care about what infuses me, not what diffuses me. I care about what lifts me, not about lowers me.

I care about what feels good, not about what doesn’t feel good. I care about alignment. I care about being an extension of Source. I care about fulfilling my reason for being here. I care about being in this world, and not necessarily only of this world.

I care about the whole of me being present in this moment. I care about all who have gone before me, and all they have come to know, and all they do now know and all that they are now presenting to me.

I care about the revelation that’s constantly coming to me, and I care about being in the receptive mode of that. I care about being on the leading edge. I care about contributing in positive ways. I care about feeling good, and I care about others feeling good.

But what I don’t care about is that which I cannot control. And what I can’t control is everything that is conditional, and what I can control is everything that is unconditional.

I can control the way I feel, I’ve practiced it. I can hold a steady vibration. I can stay in vibrational sync with who I am. I can present the whole of myself, in this time space reality, in any situation.

Abraham

[Paradise-on-Earth]

All you have to do, is pay the "terrible" price of happiness!

Abe

[Paradise-on-Earth]

Care about how you FEEL, first and foremost,
MORE THAN EVERYTHING ELSE.
More than everything else, put together.

Abraham Hicks

[Paradise-on-Earth]

Procrastination is having the wisdom not to force something,
that you are not vibrationally ready for.
It is what aligned people do when they are not in alignment.

Abraham Hicks

[Paradise-on-Earth]

There is NOTHING else, anywhere,
there is NOT a set of rules,
there is NOT a stack of books,
there are NOT teachers,
there are NOT hidden documents,
there is NOTHING outside of you that can come anywhere close
to the GUIDANCE that comes forth FROM WITHIN YOU!

Abraham Hicks

[Paradise-on-Earth]

DON'T WORRY ABOUT THIS WORLD, it is not broken.
And don't worry about others. You worry more about them, than they do.
There are people waging war; there are people on the battlefield
who are more alive than they've ever been before.
Don't try to protect people from life; just let them have their experience
while you focus upon your own experience.

Abraham-Hicks

[Paradise-on-Earth]

Should man be concerned about global warming or over population?


HS:
Hi, thank you!
I consider myself an environmentalist and I think about the concept of expansion. And I think of it
in terms of the expansion of the human population, and what someone called the carrying capacity
of this world that we live in, the earth. And I wonder if- when you speak about expansion, you speak
about things in the physical realm expanding in the same way, as the metaphysical context in which
you speak of it? And if so, how does this organism, the earth, handles our physical size?

Abe:
Well, you have to remember that every moment that you are deciphering your environment you are
radiating rockets of desire that are asking for improvement!
So it may seem odd but it would be accurate to say, that in some cases an expanded idea of
improved life might be a diminishing of something. In other words, for example let's say, you have a
disease in your body and you're wanting the absence of it. Well, the absence of it is the expansion
of the idea and the expansion of the life experience.

But it is a diminishing of the disease itself, you see. What we're getting at, and so you don't need
to worry about the balance, or overpopulation for example, of your planet- because if you were to
begin to have more population then your planet could comfortably and joyously sustain, then
many of you would begin to radiate rockets of desires that would ask for something different.
And future generations would be adjusted accordingly, and so we like to say that you don't need
to worry about those things, because they're managed from a broader perspective.

But we want to say, while they are managed from a broader perspective, meaning the decision to
come forth is from broader perspective, it is certainly understood, because of what you are
emanating from your leading-edge vantage point here and now.
So it really is not something that you need worry about!

HS:
The reason I asked is because we hear about things like global warming and so forth, that after a
certain point in time the the ability to change the pattern no longer exists and our ability to react
and change our desires, in order to prevent an impending problem would be to be too late...

Abe:
We understand human concern, and we also acknowledge that the concern is spoken from
humans who have not managed to scrape enough dirt together to launch an earth into orbit. In other
words,
it's an interesting thing to stand in a place of lack of knowledge, and from your basis of
lack of knowledge to then make your predictions that are also baseless.

HS:
So, should we not be concerned about our behavior in relationship to the world in which we live?

Abe:
Concern is an interesting word. Because when you are concerned about something, you're
pushing against what you don't want. And when you're pushing against what you don't want,
you cannot allow what you do want.

So, the good news is, with all of the beating of the drum of global warming and all of the awareness
of the situation -and it's not as great as people might think!- but there are a lot of people talking
about it. With all of that awareness, then all of those rockets of desires that are emanating from
mass consciousness in human form on the planet... in other words, who want longevity of the
planet and want a place for their children and their children to live- as you are launching those
Rockets of desires, you certainly are amassing this improved life experience on planet Earth!

Which, for most of you, will not be realized until those of you who are concerned croak.
We're not saying that your concern is keeping it from happening. We're saying, your concern
will keep you from getting to experience the benefit of it.

It's a funny thing, Jerry and Esther have been really enjoying this summer. It's been cooler
everywhere they've been. Everywhere they've been, they have their air conditioners on in their
bus while they're sitting in place or sleeping at night, all this long summer. And they tease and
say, it must be about global warming! And they were visiting with a friend the other day, who was
talking about the the cool in their area of San Antonio. How much cooler it has been there,
and Jerry is teasing: "It must be about global warming!" and she said, "yes, I think that is the
reason for it!" and Jerry and Esther laugh, because everything that's happening, is now
because of global warming. Whether it's warmer or colder- it's all because of global warming.

And we understand what the scientists are saying. Global climate changes, global climate
changes... what they're talking about. But you must not look with such narrow view! In other
words, even if you look over the last decade or two, you have had as much or more fluctuation
in your planetary weather, than you're having now.

It's just that now it is the topic that makes you want to point toward that, and we are not wanting
to burst anyone's bubble if you have found something that you want to beat the drum of, and it
makes you feel more alive! We're not speaking of you, necessarily. We're speaking of anyone.
We certainly would not want to distract you from the contrast that causes you to shore up
your intentions about your desire for a good life on this planet! In fact, all of that contrast is about
that!

We're just saying to you, that you cannot live the joyful life that you came here to live, when you
are looking at some aspect of something that causes you concern, and you're continuing to hold
yourself in that mode!

And so, while there are scientists who would say "but we know what we're talking about! And we
must get awareness, and we need to get people to be responsive to this negative thrust, that we
are offering!"
-we will never agree that a negative thrust is good for you in the short run or the long run, ever.

And so, you can't possibly control all of the people and get them to do all of the things that they
need to do in order to stop this global warming. So now all that's happened is, that you've been
informed about something awful! You feel powerless to do anything about it, and now you're
depriving yourself of well-being, as you're using that as yet another excuse to not allow the
well-being to flow to you.

So you don't allow the well-being to flow to you, and then you pronounce on your deathbed:
"See, I told you. Things were going bad."
And so what we're saying is, the premise that we would use if we were standing in any of your
physical shoes no matter what, the concern is -whether its financial, or it feels more personal,
like I can do something about it. Or global, which feels so out of control that I don't know that there's
that much that I can personally do about it!

If you'll step back into a more general statement and reach for whatever thought that you can
think that make you feel better- you'll come into alignment. And this is the way we are
soothing our physical friends who are in angst over the planet:

You're not controlling your planet from your physical standpoint!

It is being managed from a broader view.
This Earth spins in its orbit in perfect proximity
to other planets. You've got to understand, that
there's a bigger plan behind it, than Congress!

In other words, the well-being is huge in comparison and so, all of you can find whatever excuse
you want, to nitpick over things and use your temporary excuse to not allow the well-being that is
all queued up for you to you, to be yours. But we promise you, five years from now, in ten years
from now, and 20 years from now and 30 years from now- you'll look back on this impetus, and
you'll say as you said about so many things, like y2k or the harmonic convergence or on and on
it comes- every new prophet brings another thing for you to worry about!
-It was much ado about nothing again, you see. Again.

And we're not trying to get you to be environmentally irresponsible. We're saying to all of you:
It's not your environmental irresponsibility, that's killing you off, in great numbers!
It's your vibrational irresponsibility.

And so, what's happening here with this global warming- thing, is that so many of you are using
your desire to be responsible environmentally, and you feel utterly out of control and now you're
being vibrational irresponsible to yourself! So, you're using it as a reason to pull yourself apart.

You are not better off beating the drum of global warming.
You're better off beating it a little, which makes you know that you want to appreciate your planet,
and you want to do your part to care for it, you want to be considerate to other people around you.
In other words, we're not for a moment suggesting that you should just go crazy.

We're saying: Find personal alignment.
And when you, as an individual, find personal alignment, you'll be inspired to the ideas that will
allow the expansion. The economy of your environment- go back even a hundred years, or
200 years, and look how small your economy, world wise, was- compared to now. And many
would say, "well, our population is bigger!"

Your population is bigger, but it is not percentage-wise. When you measure the population 200
years ago against a population today, this economic growth is incredible. And it's not because
you're trucking in resources from other planets! It's because you're doing a better job of mining
the resources that you have, because of your contrast, which is causing desire to be born. And
it will always be that way.

You will never be in a place as people upon this planet, that the current condition does not inspire
to you to something more. And that this environment does not then yield to you something more!
You're constantly going to be morphing in ideas in ways of living. And it is our promise to you,
that life will -as it always has- it will continue to improve.

Because there is no going back.
That is the duality that most people don't want to talk about: it's that idea of good versus evil. And
we don't want to talk about that sort of duality either. We want you to understand, that things
are good and getting better, and that is the eternal experience of this eternal evolving universe,
you see! And so, when someone looks at anything, a pocket of anything, and uses it as evidence
that denotes otherwise.

We say, you're out of sync with the entire expanding universe, which must say: Expansion is
inevitable. And expansion must always be good! Why? Because the contrast caused you to ask
for the improvement. And source went to the improvement!

It's only those who beat the drum of what's wrong,
that hold themselves apart from the improvement, are giving those
doomsday scenarios, you see. You cannot be tuned in, tapped in,
turned on to the knowing that is you- you can't be that one energy,
that is in alignment with source AND worry about global warming!
The two do not go together!

You cannot be in alignment with the eternal being- you cannot see
this world through the eyes of source, AND worry about global
warming at the same time. Because they don't match up.


from the clip "Abraham Hicks - Global Warming and Over Population"

[spiritualcookie]

Take responsibility for what is happening in your experience,
and within that willingness to take responsibility
for everything that happens to you,
you will find your ultimate, glorious, satisfying freedom
to now launch into your future all of the magnificent things that you can imagine.

- Abraham
