Time Machine of Now

Do you have something you would like to change in the past? Maybe you would have what you want now if you could only make a different choice back then. Perhaps this is true but what is in the past is in the past. However, you are creating history with each breath right now. Each moment of now is an opportunity to create a new past. In a since you have a time machine to change your past now.

Knowing what you don't want reveals what you do want. The question remains "What do you really want?" If you were like Aladdin and had a genie grant you three wishes what would you ask for? To gain clarity you may ask a friend to repeatedly drill you with the question "What do you want? What do you really want?" as a 20 minute exercise while facing each other in chairs.

Make a conscious choice to allow yourself to feel into these heartfelt wants and desires. Know that this is your true self and ultimate fulfillment of life purpose for you. You have the right and ability to achieve and fulfill these desires. Not everyone wants the same thing. So, these are your wishes to be granted. Just allow yourself to be worthy of having them.

Know that you were who you were back then. The decisions you made were yours and based on what you understood at the time to be true. You are the total sum of all that you have experienced. That which hasn't killed you has made you stronger in character, fostered greater understanding, and allowed you to gain deeper compassion for yourself and others.

We know that perspective is gained by distance and the passing of time. It is also gained by outsiders giving their feedback on what they perceive as their current experienced truth. Realizing that all of us project onto others through our own "filters" we need to take their advice, and at times our own, with a grain of salt. After all there is a little truth in every lie.

Ultimately, take care of your integrity and don't beat yourself up over past choices you would like to change. Instead be clear on what you want and use your time machine of now to change your past. Create a new history for yourself giving yourself permission to achieve your dreams, to want your desires, and to attain your happiness.

Namaste.
