Steps to our own Independence Day!

At a recent art exhibit opening, a star of the HBO series, The Sopranos, was present as he is a fervent admirer of the artist whose work was on display and an owner of several of the pieces. Such fun to watch his passion and appreciation for this wonderful artist’s work (Francesco de Mura). So - a great reminder to assess your own passion level and move toward full-out loving and expressing in all areas of life. And a thought to keep close in your heart: Our Creator passionately loves “showing up as YOU!” Now that’s something to be grateful for!

Well, whoever would have guessed that the lowly pressure washer could teach us a lesson. Just as a layer of mildew grows on driveways and other surfaces in humid climates, a layer of fear, confusion, and distress grows over our eternal peace of mind that is always, already present in our lives. Neither driveway nor happiness is disturbed by these temporary surface coverings. Happily - that pressure washer removes mildew instantly/completely and releasing our grievances leads to happiness and safety with equal speed and ease.

Once again, we can delight in the fact that thousands of years of profound metaphysical teaching and more recent discoveries in quantum physics have joined hands. So it’s time to reeducate ourselves, to realize everything we experience originates in the mind. No small task!! To move in the direction of experiencing the perennial truth of Oneness, we are instructed to think of everything from the inclusive standpoint of “we,” rather than the exclusive ego position of “I.” “We” vibrates at a higher frequency that “I” and that higher frequency is where we experience the peaceful, fulfilling, and secure life. So don’t try to solve problems the old way; focus instead on raising that frequency and watch difficulties mysteriously melt away! And, as always, you’ll get a big assist in the right direction by allowing the See How Life Works videos to help you out! https://www.carolhowe.com/p/courses

Many creatures physically back up or run away when threatened, and at least psychologically, we have been conditioned to do the same. The conventional wisdom is to avoid, close down, contract, hate, object to, or resist the threatening element. This ALWAYS makes things worse in the long run. No matter how difficult or distressing a situation, it will ALWAYS change for the better if we open up to it, expand, accept and love all that is involved. 100% of the time! Any time we choose, we can start over and love everything/everyone, especially ourselves for not loving in the first place. Objecting to anything is why it’s there. And loving is how it will disappear. Our See How Life Works series helps to make this idea both clear and lots of fun! www.carolhowe.com Get your Free copy of “The Best Guide Ever to A Course in Miracles” by Carol Howe, https://www.carolhowe.com/p/ebook

July 4, 1988 was Bill Thetford’s (co-scribe of A Course In Miracles) Independence Day from this world. Bill steadily applied the universal principles set forth in the Course, and by the end of his life, had successfully released all his grievances and experienced joy beyond description! And he has led the way for all of us. So today we renew our commitment to ourselves, know the path he took is within our reach, steadily untangle ourselves from our own egos, and follow in his footsteps toward release from all pain, fear, and limitation. And freedom is ours! And our See How Life Works videos speed us all on our way to a very Happy (and permanent) Independence Day! www.carolhowe.com Get your Free copy of “The Best Guide Ever to A Course in Miracles” by Carol Howe, https://www.carolhowe.com/p/ebook

My first real job out of college required more than I thought it was possible to deliver, but when you make a commitment, resources show up, you take one day at a time, and quite miraculously, it all works out and feels great. And since that position involved working with teenagers, it cemented my love affair with them that lasts until this day. So here’s to celebrating and encouraging the teenager in all of us - willing to explore how life works, open to learning and seeing what’s around the corner, and responding eagerly to being listened to and cared for. If you’re ready to let your “teenager” come out and play, by all means check out our See How Life Works series for helpful hints.

From the perspective of numerology, 33 is the most influential of master numbers and represents “offering guidance to the world.” So what is that guidance for our modern world? One of the most critically important points for all of us to understand - our world reflects our attitude, thoughts, beliefs, and unexamined ideas. Although the world seems huge, objective and powerful, it really is our mindset looking back at us - exact to the last detail, and we’re the ones with the power! What could be more important than finally understanding and living from this knowledge? Join with me to discover the most efficient way to change attitude with little effort on our parts, but bringing wonderful and life-changing experience. Our See How Life Works series is the perfect guide for this essential, mind-changing enterprise. www.carolhowe.com Get your Free copy of “The Best Guide Ever to A Course in Miracles” by Carol Howe, https://www.carolhowe.com/p/ebook

Get your Free copy of “The Best Guide Ever to A Course in Miracles” by Carol Howe, https://www.carolhowe.com/p/ebook Our outer lives are mirrors of our inner attitudes. Notice the characteristics of the image in a mirror - it looks back at us but does not initiate. It takes no time nor effort on our part to appear when we stand in front of it, or change in response to our prayers or demands. In the same way, our world appears in effortless response to what we believe, request, and pay attention to and cannot substantively change until attitude changes. And, happily, we are entirely in charge of an attitude upgrade. Nothing needs to be different for us to start to change our minds. Our See How Life Works series is a great aid in shifting that attitude back to one where your reflected world is a kinder and more peaceful one.  Enjoy your new world! www.carolhowe.com https://www.facebook.com/seehowlifeworks/

Get your Free copy of “The Best Guide Ever to A Course in Miracles” by Carol Howe, https://www.carolhowe.com/p/ebook We’ve been told from many sources that we can re-create our past history because our past actually no longer exists. Any moment is literally a new beginning. That means we can “remember” a past with only kind and supportive people being present for us. No villains or enemies. Notice how suspicious and unwilling the ego mind is to recreate a past without pain and difficulty. Ask yourself, “Would I be delighted to find no one has ever hurt me?” Listen carefully to this most important and revealing answer to see why we do not jump with joy at recognizing this liberating choice - why we prefer being victims instead. Our See How Life Works series is designed to facilitate this life-saving choice for a happier life! www.carolhowe.com

Get your Free copy of “The Best Guide Ever to A Course in Miracles” by Carol Howe, https://www.carolhowe.com/p/ebook Children love coloring on a new clean piece of paper. They finish one drawing and are happy then to move on with a new different sheet. We can learn from them. Each day is literally a new clean unblemished canvas for drawing the life of your choosing. We can be as excited as children in creating a new happier experience with no requirement to bring yesterday’s pictures along. They are not impelled to keep drawing the same picture over and over endlessly and we need not be either. Such an important fact of life and one we’ll explore from several angles. Enjoy and see how this is possible in our See How Life Works series. www.carolhowe.com
