 It's just great that when those euphoric emotions come, you can just let them come. And when you feel guilty because your emotions don't match what other people's emotions are, this is part of a belief system that there are appropriate emotions for appropriate situations. For example, people are not, in most cultures, people are not supposed to be happy at funerals. Even though there are some cultures that celebrate death and mourn birth, it just shows you that the whole world of beliefs and situations is all relative. And the device that brings the guilt to you is a comparison that you're not like other people. But in the end, forgiveness helps us loosen from the beliefs that we are a person and that anyone is capable of being a person. And as you continue with the mind training, you will have examples where you are not affected at all by what is happening. But also you will have this feeling that there is no sense of what is spiritually correct or incorrect or emotionally appropriate or emotionally inappropriate. Because peace of mind is not circumstance dependent. And when you forgive and experience peace of mind, you will have a peaceful perception of the world, regardless of what seems to be happening, because you won't be judging it or interpreting it. So that's been part of my journey as well, showing up at my grandmother's funeral in joy, and channeling her to everyone at the funeral. It was a very different funeral experience for me. And people just started crying because they felt her love and her presence. I'll give you an extreme example. I went to attend and speak at a very large Course in Miracles conference. Maybe 400 or 500 people. And on Sunday there was a Sunday service during the conference. And the whole talk that was given was about, don't you hate people that are happy all the time? So I just sat in the audience and listened to the talk. And people around me kept looking at me during the whole talk. There's the focus, there's the punt of the joke. But, you know, happiness is not something I would choose to give away. In the sense of not having anymore, it's my life. But I had to think, isn't this funny hearing a talk like this at a Course in Miracles conference? To me it was a comedy talk. Because it was so ridiculous in this setting. So we start to just let go of this idea of what's appropriate and inappropriate in terms of emotions. Because we want that peace and that steadiness in our own state of mind. So I think that's just an ego judgment when you say people are saying that you're tactless. It's just a judgment that you're not emotionally appropriate for this world. And if you can relax into this, then it won't matter if people cry on your shoulder or have all kinds of reactions to death. Because your mission here now is to teach that there is no death. And you can see inside what's all the fuss about death when you have forgiven the world. I had a friend from England who I met many years ago. I think when I met her she was the happiest person that I've ever met. She was 58 years old, had real rosy cheeks and was always bursting into laughter. When someone asked her who wrote the Course in Miracles, she said I did. And she would laugh all the time with everything. And the stuff that would come out of her mouth people would be shocked by. All the heads would turn when she would say just a short line. But then they would look into her eyes and they would feel her presence and their face would suddenly soften. And they would start to nod their head and go, that's right, that's right. Her joy was so strong that she was winning over all of the people. We just watched this movie Lucy and Lucy had the power to control other people. And that's how it was with my friend Dorothy. Her joy was so authentic that people would get over their initial shock very quickly and go, oh yeah, yeah. But she was just so sure of her state of mind. But she was never looking for external validation. She was just a very high soul that was very sure of her source. And she's still living today on Whitby Island though, because of Seattle. I just saw her a couple of years ago still laughing, bright rosy cheeks and hasn't changed a bit. She said now she's in her 70s and when I met her she was 58. She may be someone fun to visit because it stays with you. But you don't have to act a certain way for the world.
