ACIM Workbook Lesson #28:
"Above all else, I want to see things differently."
Today's lesson asks us to give up any notion we have concerning the meaning of anything and everything. By doing this, we stop looking at a thing and begin seeing the consciousness which sustains it. When we start asking what things are rather than telling them what they are, interesting answers may be coming our way! For instance, in one of my favorite novels, "The 100-year Old Man Who Climbed Out the Window and Disappeared”, the main character doesn't make plans, but follows his intuition and ends up in some very interesting situations. Whether he's spending a few years in jail or crossing the Himalayas on foot, he doesn't interpret new circumstance from past experience, but views them as they are and does what needs to be done. "Above all else, I want to see things differently." (ACIM)
