ACIM Workbook Lesson #2
“I have given everything I see in this room [on this street, from this window, in this place] all the meaning that it has for me.”
Isn't it wonderful that we have the ability to interpret events in any way we choose? Many people think of a rainy day as bad weather; others see it as the beauty of water returning to the earth to perform its function; some see it simply as a peaceful calm with its grey-dumpling clouds! Christmas is seen by many as a stressful time when they spend too much money and end up doing things they would rather not. Others enjoy the beauty of lights and decorations while relaxing with family and rejoicing in the meaning of Christmas. I give these examples simply to illustrate how we place different meanings on situations and our perceptions of objects. That is why we’re being asked to examine the meaning we have placed on everything, in preparation for releasing these beliefs, allowing our purified minds to glimpse reality and hunger to see more!
