(being there) Every Emotion Leads You to Your Truth
Imagine you are going about your normal daily activities: walking down the street; working in your yard; sitting on your porch; shopping; perhaps you are at your place of work, or a social or an entertainment event. A stranger approaches you and engages you in conversation. It may be a man or a woman.
The stranger, while quietly powerful, does not feel threatening. By her speech you can tell she speaks with understanding of your experience and of matters that you do not often hear in your day-to-day life. She tells you of a great treasure to be had for the taking. She explains that it is too great a treasure for any one person to claim, for it replenishes itself magically. She invites you to come with her, she can only show you where it is. The choice is yours: come with her now to claim your share of this great treasure for yourself, or continue to go about your current activities.
Perhaps you will see her again, perhaps not. There can be no guarantee of this. What would you do?
Would you decline her invitation to gather the treasure? Or would you accept it and go with her, then and there? Are there additional questions you would need to ask first? What concerns would you need addressed to be able to make a choice? What issues of yours would arise and need work? Are you available to receive the great treasure? Or would you feel duty-bound to previous obligations? How attached are you to your present environment and conditions? What tests would a gift-giver need to pass before you made yourself available?
In many ways, this scenario plays itself out every day, many times each day. Each time you have an emotional experience you have an invitation to discover and claim a great treasure, your Personal Truth. Every emotion, no matter how strong or how weak, subtle or obvious, is an opportunity for you to get a treasure; a treasure which is there merely for the claiming, and which can not be diminished by any amount you take.
With each additional claim you have greater understanding of your life, your relationships, your purpose, and the reality you create. You are able to make more conscious choices about every circumstance, and feel more and more as the creator of your life.
This treasure is more valuable than any other thing you can imagine: it allows you freedom in every situation; it gives you the personal power to pursue and create anything you truly want; no situation seems overwhelming or too big to handle; fear no longer drives you; you know the perfection of every experience; and it brings you closer to the experience of unity with all things. Nothing imaginable can offer such wealth as knowing your Personal Truth, and then choosing to live by it.
Part 2 of "Seeking ..." will explain how seeking is an advanced form of willingness, which is the first choice of consciousness.
