Money and Agreements

A few points opened up from an assignment I was doing within the Desteni I Process course - which I will share here.

Within walking an agreement with a partner one of the most challenging points for me thus far has been related to money and points of self-definition that are related to money. 

One evening me and my partner were on our way to a grocery store after a few rounds of bowling at a local bowling alley. After getting the groceries, my partner shared that she had some points in relation to me not saying “thank you”. The point was opened up further – and as the point was being discussed I allowed myself to take things personally instead of slowing down and realizing that she is simply sharing her back-chat and she is speaking out the point to support herself, and that none of what she is experiencing has anything to do with me even if it initially comes out as what I perceive to be blame or projection.

Within me I was having my own back chat within “What the fuck, she is blaming me – she is being righteous.” as well as going into an emotional reaction at that point due to unresolved issues within me that had been triggered in that moment. The issue was that she was experiencing herself as being taken advantage of and that I was not grateful for the point of her paying for things more than I do within our agreement, and within this I have points of guilt and issues of believing self to be inferior within self-judgment. In exploring this point further I realized that I have unresolved issues around money and that these must be cleared up.

Within me, I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I as the 'male' within a relationship, am expected to be the point of financial stability and support, and have accepted and allowed myself to believe that if I am not that point of financial stability or support, then I am not a 'man', and thus there is something 'wrong' with me that I should be ashamed of. 

There is also some baggage that was not resolved within the relationship I have had with 'money' in my life. So I see the point of correction here would be to redefine who I am in relation to money in my world and to forgive myself of any points that have been unresolved in terms of money in my life and allow myself to change and work through this point. 

It is vital that any points to do with money in terms of walking an agreement with a partner be cleared up and directed - as currently money is directly tied to survival and need - and when there exists anxiety and back-chat about money within the context of survival and need while walking in a partnership with another, the fears and anxieties related to not having money and therefore being vulnerable and exposed to the fear of not being able to survive or sustain self becomes a possessive entity that overrides clear communication and support - where one partner goes into fear of losing/wasting the money if they support the other, and the other fears not having the support where support is needed.

Self-Forgiveness on my ideas about money - 

  1. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to judge myself for working at a job that does not pay as well as my previous job, and to judge myself and participate in the thought of “I am not as worthy of a person now”.
  2. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate within thoughts of anxiety and stress within not having money for myself.
  3. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate within thoughts and stress in relation to having or not having money.
  4. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to be measured and rated based on the amount of money I have made and have in my account.
  5. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear and participate in anxiety when I do not have any cash in my wallet and the money in the bank cannot be withdrawn.
  6. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to take things personally when my partner shares herself and expresses her points within money.
  7. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself participate in fear and mistrust of others when I do not have money.
  8. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to allow money to become an entity instead of money simply being practical tool within what is currently here as the system that must be worked with for the moment.
  9. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear money.
  10. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I only 'deserve' to use money when it is money that I have earned myself
  11. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that money should determine how I feel about myself.
  12. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to associate having money with having security and thus when I experience myself not having money, I experience insecurity, which causes me to experience myself as unstable and uncertain.
  13. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to not live the realization that money is simply a tool to be used within the current system and that the current design of money is not based on equality or common sense – thus to not take it personally if I do not have money at the moment and simply realize that I am still here – that I will do whatever is necessary to support myself for the moment until an equal money system is established in this world.
  14. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear never having money again
  15. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate in fear and anxiety due to believing that my life is unstable and my survival is threatened within not having money.
  16. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to desire money within believing that having money will make me feel better.
  17. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to desire money within the starting point of wanting the ability to get what I want, when I want it.
  18. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to become addicted to the feeling and energetic experience of being able to buy whatever I want, whenever I want.
  19. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to associate buying something with the experience of 'feeling good', within the design of instant gratification associated with buying something.
  20. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to feel guilty within having participated within the thought of “I don't deserve this” when my partner pays for something on my behalf.
  21. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to judge myself as inferior and unworthy within walking my agreement with my partner but not being able to contribute equally in terms of finances.
  22. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to script and limit myself within the self-belief of “I am not able to make more money”
  23. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to sabotage myself from making more money and having a more stable income within self-doubt and fear of money.
  24. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to use the excuse of “I don't have enough money” as a reason/justification to not apply myself and push myself within establishing myself and my point of self-support within the matrix.
  25. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to use the excuse/justification of “I don't have enough money” to garner sympathy and condolences from others as energy for me to feed on as limitation/abdication.
  26. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to resent my mother and the debts that I have not paid back and have not been able to pay back, and within this create a separation and friction around money.
  27. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to resist approaching my partner within borrowing money and working with money in practical ways that support our walking together.
  28. I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that my partner resents me and does not want to walk with me and work with me financially until I get myself stable again.

I stop. Instead of going into points of inferiority or self judgment, or participating in fear or stress, I will support myself within living the practical realization that money does not control me, and that I will do whatever is necessary to be done to support myself. Instead of arguing or becoming resentful to/towards my partner, I push myself and apply myself to bring the points of frustration and judgment back to myself and stand within the commitment to not allow my mind to tell me how to experience myself within the point of money and walking with my partner when I do not have as much money to contribute.
I discussed the point further with my partner and we came to an understanding with each other – that the money is not to be given energy as value and that it is to be used practically within the context of what is here and not to be resentful of one another when it comes to spending the money. It is simply here to be used – and it does not matter who has more of it or who makes more income – we both contribute our time and effort to walk together effectively to become stable and effective beings who are able to take on this system and change the money system to one that does support all life.

At the moment we must function in a system that does not and was not meant to support life. The current system must generate abuse and exploitation – and it is not currently possible for all to have the same level of income or financial stability. Within this I see and understand that what I can do is simply breathe and apply myself moment to moment and to work with what is here. I allow myself to use the current system to the best of my ability within the principle and understanding that there is no support for life currently – thus I must support myself so that my partner is not taking on extra financial burdens that will lead to stress and conflict within our walking.

So at the moment we are both facing who we are within the point of money – and it is cool because I am pushing myself within the application of not feeding my reactions and emotions and clearing myself of such movements in me as we discuss these points – otherwise the discussion becomes an argument and we do not actually get to a point of mutual agreement or support.

Newly Unemployed and a Night Out with Self Part ONE

Newly Unemployed and a Night Out with Self Part ONE

Today was my last day at work, and I faced points of excitement and energy within the point of 'change'. I had been working at my current job for nearly 6 years, and I experienced thoughts today of “wow this is going to be weird” and “I am going to without a routine/schedule” and I was seeing self-definitions of and as a “full-time worker” melting away as my final work shift drew to a close and I began to say my goodbyes to my co-workers.

In those moments when the thoughts/emotions would arise I would stop them but I see that there was a part of me that allowed the thoughts/feelings to linger before I had directed myself to delete them. So there were some points of not wanting to let go of the energy around my self-definition of 'full-time worker' as well as the memories/experiences accumulated over the years. ________________________________________________________________________

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to in that moment of experiencing lingering thoughts and emotions around this being my last day at work, not direct myself within letting go of and clearing myself of attachments to the self-definition of 'full-time worker'.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I am the self-definition of a 'full-time worker'

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to desire holding on to the validation I would get from others which I used to feed my self-definition of 'full-time worker'

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear/resist letting go of the energy I would get around the point of being at work and being among co-workers

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate within thoughts of 'this is going to be exciting/new/different'

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I am different because of moving to Portland and 'taking on' something new.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to place energy and emotional charges on the point of leaving my job and moving to Portland.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate within gossip and energy around the point of it being my 'last day' with my co-workers.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate within and as my ego/personality within saying goodbye to my fellow co-workers and within this I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to in that moment not direct myself to stop and rather not participate from an energetic starting point.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate within energetic reactions as experiences within self as I greeted and informed fellow co-workers that it was my last day and said goodbye.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that me leaving my job and moving to Portland is a 'special' event that should be recognized within a starting-point of energetic reactions.

I STOP.

I support myself and live HERE in each moment. I let go of thoughts and feelings within myself and see that they are not me.

I walk within and as the simplicity of what is here in the moment, whether I am here, in Portland, working, not working.

Why an Equal Money System? Every reason possible

MONEY – In sickness and in health, till death do us part.

In the world that I live in now there is NO escaping money. Even if I were to sell or give away all of my possessions and walk away from the entire matrix system of money and go off the grid, I am STILL subject to money because it is money that determines the quality of my entire environment. It is MONEY that will determine whether the off-grid location I will set up home at will have been damaged by pollution or whether attempts have been made to ensure that the area is able to support life. It is MONEY that will determine whether or not somebody may come along and simply buy out the land from underneath my feet because I do not own title or claim to the area. It is MONEY that will determine if the soil will be arable or whether it had been exposed to chemicals or simply has been rendered infertile through erosion of topsoil. It is MONEY that determines whether there is wildlife around me to hunt and feed from or whether the area had been rezoned for industrial or urban development. Thus my going 'off-grid' would not be an act of freedom – it would simply remain another form of enslavement to a system which has the ability to determine the quality of my life even if I walk away from it.

Every single facet of my life has been determined by money since before I was born. My mother would have required the money to get the care necessary to give birth to me. The staff at the hospital would have required money in order to have sustained themselves in this world enough to be able to get an education and become workers in the medical field. The medical industrial complex would have needed money to continue being able to pay those who work in hospitals and in research/development. The hospital itself would have needed access to funds in order to maintain facilities and staff, and all of this is just for me to be able to be delivered out of my mother's womb and into the hands of a doctor- let alone my actual experience of being alive upon my emergence into this world.

Had I been born to a family that had a lot of money, my life would be drastically different. This is true for every single human that is born on this planet. If one is born into a situation in which money is not in adequate supply, the quality of life for that child becomes greatly hindered by the availability of funds for that child's caretakers. And should no caretakers be around or should the money run out, the child's life expectancy drops dramatically.

Many have rightly surmised that money is the root of all evil – but fail to see the human hands that had engineered money to be what it is. Many have not seen that it is not money itself that is evil, but what we have collectively allowed to happen through money – having made money a commodity greater than life itself.

For myself, I see that EVERY single thought within me is influenced by money and my relationship to it in this world. EVERY desire I have, is linked to money. EVERY opinion I have about the world, is influenced by money. I have created myself to be personalities and fake faces in order to secure ways to get money and ways to remain acceptable within the matrix in order to support myself to be able to survive – yet within this survival I am not in any way ALIVE or self-directed. I am simply surviving and existing within enslavement. And this is true for all humans whether they are impoverished and living in squalor in the third-world (which in itself is absurd considering that we are at a stage of development where poverty is able to be wiped out and the same is true for aids and starvation) or whether they are living in luxury in an elite family. All humans are currently under complete hypnotic control and fear around the point of money.

Each time I want to do something, the first thought in my mind is 'can I afford it' – because if I spend too much money on something then I run the risk of not having enough money to buy survival. So there is a constant choice that must be made of whether I will buy survival or whether I will buy self-expression or entertainment. And it isn't just me. It is all human participants. We work jobs in order to get money, to buy things that we are trained and programmed to enjoy by those who require us to give them our money so that in turn they can survive and be able to buy goods of their own and while all of this is going on there is a class of people benefiting from all of the transactions while contributing nothing of actual value.

I cannot say with certainty what I would be doing if money were no longer an issue of survival. I have no idea what my self-expression would be in this world if I did not have to compete with others, do things I did not want to do in order to survive, and living in constant fear of death because the current system allows those without money to die.

In my life I have compromised myself, lied, cheated, stolen, manipulated, and exploited others all within the constant need for money not for my entertainment, but for my continued existence on this planet. It has become REQUIRED that humans cheat and deceive in order to exist – and this is NOT human nature. Yes there are aspects that are pre-programmed but this is NOT who we are and is NOT our 'natural' state. We have accepted and allowed ourselves to remain within this initial programming out of constant fear of death and having living in competition, scarcity, war, distrust, and dishonesty for centuries, but even so, we are able to change.

If I had been raised in a world in which the Equal Money System were in place – there would not be any fear within me of 'not being good enough'. There would be no sense in competing to 'better' another. The incentive would be the betterment of ALL. There would be no reason to deny anyone anything, because all are equally supported to be here and all are equally deserving of honor and dignity within their expression. There would be no crimes committed out of desperation. There would be no 'laziness' within people who had become fed up with a system that continually shuts them out and disregards them if they are not able to be exploited for their labor. I would live in a world where innovation and improvement would not be done for profit, but for the expansion of humanity and the improvement of the actual quality of life for all. I would be able to express myself, expand myself, explore myself along with all fellow humans and live in a world were there is no more fear or uncertainty.

Yet the EMS is not here yet. And those of us who see what it can bring, see it's full potential, and see that it is currently the only practical and effective way to sort out the problem of human existence on this planet to do whatever it takes within this lifetime to ensure that such a system is in place for all future generations – to be able to exist in real support and dignity.

I see clearly that there can be no other way to restore real value and meaning to life. I see clearly that any other economic solution would simply be putting a bandage over something that is terminally ill and must consume life in order to sustain itself.

Any talk of a resource based economy that does not take into consideration how deeply entrenched money is to the condition of the human is operating from a point of blindness and delusion. Any solution that does not address the fundamental problem of insurmountable debt, inequality, and the basic requirements that must be met in order for any human being to be able to live a dignified life are by design doomed to fail as we are seeing with the current systems of the world.

One day money WILL become irrelevant and we WILL be able to co-exist without needing to use money. But unless we establish and correct humanity's relationship to LIFE, and ensure that all beings have an opportunity to live within dignity and honor, we will need a money system based on equality as a transition step. We require a money system that supports ALL and is NOT tied to debt or profit.

An equal money system is the inevitable 'impossibility'. Many have not yet seen or truly understood how vital it is to have an equal money system in place within our lifetimes – they do not see that EVERYTHING hinges currently on an equal money system being established. There is not a single problem in the world today whether it is environmental damage, social decline/unrest, medical pandemics, geopolitical wars, or problems within human relationships with each other – that can be fixed or corrected in any meaningful or lasting way UNLESS we have established an equal money system.

And to do that we must BE the equal money system. We must prove by standing up within ourselves and sorting out all of the mess that we have accepted ourselves to exist as. We must begin with letting go of and taking responsibility for all that we have done to ourselves and to each other. We must forgive ourselves and forever STOP the pattern of abuse that we have participated in for centuries of time.

Yes, we will have to change human nature – by changing the nature of ourselves.

I stand within and as the commitment to ensure that equality is here in fact within my lifetime. I begin with purifying myself.

Time loops for two? NO THANK YOU

A point opened up earlier today while I was having a chat with Lindsay. The point was related to money, and also the point of me not having 'enjoyed myself' within having money to do things like go to concerts, take trips, go to events, or having the ability to simply 'move' self within self-enjoyment and activities.

I have had an ingrained fear of money- specifically fear of 'not having enough money', which has been a prominent experience within my life, having defined myself as a person who 'never has enough money' and existing within and as that self-definition since my teenage years where the point became more prominent.

I have existed within the self-definition of 'I don't have enough money' also as a way to justify not pushing myself, not expanding myself, not being like 'others' who i saw in my world as being 'able to do things that they want' because they have money. having judged and accepted the idea within myself that i am not 'able' to do and have such things i used the point of money as a justification as to why i was not pushing myself to be able to have and do those things. instead of facing self and expanding self i had gone into the point of blaming money and fearing money.

over the years this has accumulated into a self-definition of 'i am a hard worker' and 'i earn my own money and do not rely on others' and also judging others who have money and use it for things that i had judged to be 'wasteful' and 'self-interest/consumerist' which was actually me resenting others for being able to have money to use to enjoy themselves and do the things i wanted to do, but did not allow myself to because of remaining within the self-definitions of 'i don't have enough money and i work hard for the money i have'.

self-honestly, this has been my way of 'coping' with self-limitation and allowing self to live within constant fear and uncertainty over money- which became a kind of 'comfort' because when i do not have enough money, i can get away with not having more responsibilities and not having to face myself within situations that are outside of my safe, routine, self-created bubble.

i see how i have limited myself within not taking on my education, not taking on more responsibilities at work, not allowing myself to get a car, not 'establishing' myself within the matrix, which all conveniently are justified within me 'not having enough money'.

thus this has been a 'core' method of defense for myself as ego/mind/pre-programmed enslavement, wherein i have made 'money' and 'work' a 'touchy' subject for me and have set up walls against it.

this point was opened up when Lindsay asked if I would like to attend some lectures that will be held in Portland. when she sent me the link i saw that the lectures covered very cool topics about sustainability, economics, food, energy, politics, etc and that i definitely wanted to attend, but immediately the point/thought came up of 'how much is this going to cost' and 'i don't think i can afford this'. i exposed to lindsay that i had this resistance come up and we talked about the points and i applied self-correction on fears based on money and also the point of not allowing self to enjoy self within attending events, going out and doing activities, spending money on things within self-expression, but i did not open up all of the points and was still having reactions and fears within self that i did not want to face and expose. Lindsay saw that i was 'sitting on a point' and pushed further and i exposed more, but still i did not open up all the way. i went into instant suppression and buried the points within myself, not wanting to expose my fears related to money, work, and my self-definition and comfort zone within being a 'worker'. i did not want to let go of my 'coping mechanism' of being a 'hard worker'. so when we spoke on the points and Lindsay asked if i was clear or whether i had any points still, i said that i was clear and that i was grateful for having the opportunity to walk through this with her.

so again this point of 'internalization' and wanting to take on points on my own and not exposing myself came to the surface and i did not direct myself within the moment and allowed myself to fall into a time-loop situation where i allowed a point to become suppressed.

on the way to work i noticed that i was not stable within self. i knew that i had fallen on something but was not clear with self and did not want to see that i had participated in deliberate deception in order to not face a point. at work i was very distracted- having many points of projection as well as pictures coming up within me which i was not stabilizing myself through by stopping and remaining here. thus it became clear that i had fucked myself and undermined my standing on the point of stopping my habit of internalizing and wanting to hold on to 'my own process' and not sharing my points, which undermines my trustability within the agreement. i saw that this is not a point i will accept or allow and that i must take responsibility and expose this point.

on the walk home from work, i spoke out loud for/as myself and got myself clear on the point and spoke self-forgiveness and self-corrective statements, and made it clear that i am no longer going to allow this to continue. having any points of not speaking self-honestly in every moment is not acceptable, and i have an opportunity with Lindsay to fully establish my self-honesty with another, thus completely unacceptable in any way whatsoever to speak within a point of defending my ego and not wanting to expose and let go of a point of limitation.

i established for myself the self-corrective action of immediately opening up all points, and when/if Lindsay asks if I am clear, to remain self-honest and say if there is a point or not. if the point has become suppressed and i do not have it within my consciousness but there is still energetic movement, i will express that. if there is a point but it has become suppressed and had become internalized, i express that. i 'out' myself always on all points so that i can let go of these limitations within myself and within all of existence. i remain self-honest always and will work with what is here in full exposure with Lindsay. i support myself by 'outing' the fact that i have a point that is not clear and needs to be worked on, and support myself and allow Lindsay to support me one and equal.

if there is a point, i say there is a point, and work it out from there instead of trying to 'hide' even though i know that there is no possibility of hiding anything within this agreement.

thus i stop this pattern here and now completely and support myself now and always to remain self-honest at all times. i walk this and i stand.

when i got home i called lindsay and woke her up lol. i told her that i had some points that i needed to discuss and we got on skype to chat. i exposed my point of having suppressed a point earlier today, and shared with her what was going on, correcting myself and exposing the entire point as well as establishing the application of if i have a point within self but it has become suppressed, it is 'okay' and i can simply share that i have a point that became suppressed, and Linday and I can then walk through the point from there or I can do self-writing or whatever it takes to clear the point- but to no longer accept in any way dishonesty of any kind and completely opening myself up within sharing. it is not acceptable to create time-loops when they are able to be prevented. i am committed to walk this agreement with Lindsay for the rest of my life - thus any and all time loops i must face, Lindsay must face with me. thus not acceptable to time-loop for two or even for one, for that matter.

to go back to the point of money-

i see that this has been an ingrained point and has been layered within myself over time, but this is NOT an excuse whatsoever to allow self to be directed within and as this limitation and i do NOT accept myself to allow for this point to continue. i take on and walk through all manifested consequence that must be faced in real-time for this point and i no longer re-create it within the mind. i will walk and adjust and correct this point now and always until it stops completely within self and within existence.

i stop existing within and as fear of money and fear of having to face myself within being in an environment where i have not 'planned for', am not 'prepared for', and do not have an established routine that i can follow. i stop existing within and as dependency on a 'routine', which is programming, which is NOT self-expression. i see and live the realization that i am entering a new situation and that i will be okay and not have to worry about survival and money and can experience myself in an 'unknown' frontier.

i let go of any and all fears of 'not knowing' because there is no such thing as actually 'knowing' what will happen. thus i stop existing within that delusion and allow self to experience self within vulnerability as well as self-trust in each moment, raw and 'unprepared'.

i relax NOW instead of waiting to 'relax' when i am physically in Portland with Lindsay.

i live NOW the embodiment of an equal money system instead of waiting for the day it 'happens'.

I want YOU for Project K-9!!

I would like all of you to contribute wherever you can for "Project K-9" (working title)

This project is about gathering information, research, personal stories, and FACTUAL data regarding our current money system and it's foreseeable future, as well as warning signs of potential danger. This project is also about exposing the damage caused by our current pricing system, the obscuration of the REAL cost of our lifestyles, and what must be done so that we can avoid crossing over the line of no return within a total collapse of the human societal system.

I am looking for PERSONAL stories, FACTUAL data that can be sourced/documented, well thought out editorials/opinions/solutions, any relevant research, video/audio files related.

At this stage in the project I am only taking information, research, and submissions to flesh out the project.

Your submissions will be considered for use in the making of a documentary film project or book project related to the promotion an equal money system and dedicated to bringing awareness to the failures of our current system. Materials may also be used in alternative media such as animation, blogs, networking sites, etc for further promotion of the topics.

These submissions will be "at will" and I am not able to pay those who contribute.

Here's how to participate in this project-

Below is a program breakdown separated into chapters. If you would like to contribute anything towards a topic covered in a chapter, please send any relevant materials to joekoufullcircle@gmail.com and PLEASE PLACE "Project K-9" and the relevant chapter(s) into your subject heading. If you would like to be credited for your submission or remain anonymous you can let me know.

It's not money, it's ME

Money is not the root of the evil... it is only the tool.

Money is innocent. Is a form of exchange. It is indeed a currency... a current that must be allowed to flow freely and without unnecessary obstruction so that it does not become choked off or deviated from it's course.

It is necessary for this natural flow of currency to be freely accessible by all, for all. We require this vital and life supporting stream in the same manner that we require the flow of blood within our own bodies.

It not not the intrinsic existence of a money system that allows for the atrocities done by and through money. It is the hands that the money is handled by. It is the obstructions placed against the fair and free flow of currency that renders us into categories of wealth and austerity.

Money itself cannot be blamed for usury and abuse any more than a pen can be blamed for grammatical errors or the misspelling of words.

We are inclined to place blame upon social paradigms and systems that exist as an outflow of who we are, instead of placing the scrutiny properly upon ourselves and our responsibility to self correct our misplaced acceptances.

Money Money Money Money.... .MOOOONEY!

What you resist persists.

The fears that I have accepted and allowed myself to become will be faced. That which I am still in separation and fear from I will have to deal with and sort out. My fears WILL and MUST manifest, and will compound again and again and again until finally I have enough "gall" to stand up within and as it and say "till here no further".

It is not to confront fear as an obstacle or as an opponent to be "fought" with. It is not to be seen as a "battle" against fear or the act of suppressing the fear. It is to truly stand up within fear, as fear, and to direct myself through it.

"biting the bullet", as it were.

my fears of money and security... they are manifesting now, and will compound until truly I have "had enough" and will be forced to break through it. here's a start....

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to live in separation from the money system.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to judge the money system as intrinsically "bad" or "evil" or as being the "root of all evil".

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to define myself through "having money" and "being financially solvent".

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear losing money because it would mean that I am not a "smart person" or "a person able to support themselves".

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to live and manifest my expression as being "less than" money.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to fear losing the "stability" that money gives me.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that money gives me stability.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I need or lack "stability" and must seek it outside of myself in separation from myself.

I forgive myself that I have not allowed myself to realize myself as practical stability and unconditional support HERE as breath in self honesty.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to manipulate myself and others through the money system, thus furthering the dependency on money.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that those with money are "superior" than those who do not.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to view those with money as "greater than" myself because they have stability and can support themselves more "easily" than I can.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to judge myself according to who is "more stable and able to support themselves in this world".

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to live in separation from stability and support.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to desire money as a means to "buy" the support or stability that I accepted and allowed myself to believe I require.

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to desire money to buy things to distract me from my process and keep me in fear of "not having money to buy more distractions".

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to buy distractions such as movies, games, clothes, books, entertainment, and unnecessary recreational foods to keep myself occupied in my mind.
