 Good morning. Good afternoon, depending where you are. Welcome to our all-day movie workshop. I'm Peter. I'm going to be the host today and yeah, we have people here for our movie workshop and also those joining us for our Tabula Rasa online retreat weekend. So we have a big group with us today. It's great to see everybody and yeah, we have a movie that I haven't seen before which I'm really looking forward to. So I can just let you know about the day. We'll start with the movie with David and then we'll have a little break afterwards of 10 minutes and then we have breakout rooms where you can share any experiences that you had with the movie or any emotions that came up and then we'll have a 45-minute break and then I'll be holding a questions and answers session at the end. So I'm going to pass it over to you now, David. Okay. Thanks, Pete. Welcome. Welcome, everybody. We've just got a beautiful deep dive today. A deep dive with Jesus and the Holy Spirit as we approach the happy dream. This is part of our happy dream online retreat. So we have a whole group of participants that are just in the middle of the happy dream online retreat and they've been sharing their questions and prayers and their really their direction for wanting to open to happiness and then we also have our movie workshop group from around the world joining in. So it's a big melting pot today of happiness. We are swirling towards happiness. We are in the tractor beam of happiness and Jesus has got us and it is resistance is futile. So I hope you're as glad as I am that there's no way you can actually choose against God's will in reality because God's will for us is perfect happiness and that's what it's all about. And we have lots of opportunities to forgive as we know every day. But once you start getting into the rhythm of it and you see the value of it, you actually start to feel a little bit more like a happy learner. And once you start to feel like a happy learner, you're a willing learner. You're really willing to unlearn everything that you believe about this world and you're willing to let go of all your thoughts about the past and the future and be pretty clueless and spontaneous. I would say is the way you'll feel when you empty your mind of all these other things that you've pursued in your life. You'll feel pretty clueless and happy, pretty content. Pretty is a good word. You'll feel pretty. I feel pretty or feel so pretty. You know, you feel actually pretty when you don't have judgments in your mind and opinions because it was difficult to hold opinions. So as I said a bit when Francis and I opened up the happy dream retreat before you come to a state of consistent happiness, you seem to go through what I'll call a dismantling. It's a dismantling of the self-concept of the image that you believe you are and the image you believe the world is. So, you know, some of you may say, well, it's quite a big adventure to let go of this personality self, but you have to let go of the self-concept of the whole cosmos, too. You have to let go of your belief in external wars, external famine. You have to let go of your belief in external countries, in external politicians. You have to let go of your belief in external stars and quasars and black holes and you have to start to realize, oh my gosh, I'm the dreamer of this dream and there's nothing outside of me and there's nothing that can hurt me and nothing can harm me. And in order to go through this dismantling, all you have to do is follow the guidance, the guidance of Jesus and the Holy Spirit. It's really simple. It's not a complicated thing. Ego will try to make it complicated and will try to say but, but, but, but. The truth is simple and the ego is like, but what about the complexity? You're not interested in the complexity. You're not interested in the complexity. You know, we've had enough of complexity. It never solved anything. And so today's movie will take us from the paralysis of analysis into the glee of the present moment. We're going on spiritual psychotherapy now with Jesus. He's our therapist because he, he made it through time and space and realized it wasn't real. And he said, my kingdom is not of this world. Our kingdom is not of this world. Now that's the kind of therapist I want. I would sit on any couch to listen to that therapist. In fact, I'll, I'll, I'll listen to that therapist on the bus or taking a walk or in any situation and any circumstance because I think divine spirit is of course the greatest therapist because it's helping you escape from the belief in time and space. So for those of you that are part of the online retreat, you may not know that the way we choose these movies is through prayer. And I've been praying on this one for a while, but when I heard the participants of the retreat just so openly sharing their struggles of where they're at, whether it's with health issues, whether it's with financial issues, whether it's with relationship issues or struggles around self doubt or difficulty hearing the Holy Spirit in Jesus. This movie I think is going to be an answer to the prayer. So this movie today is an answer to a prayer for opening to the happy dream and also people around the world and a number of different forums voted on the themes that, that are underneath us showing this movie. So many people vote on these themes and then we take it to prayer and Jesus says, got one for you. He always blows us away. Like Pete said, Pete's never seen this movie. I think you're all going to enjoy it. We have many great movies that we use for teaching purposes, but I just love it when Jesus gives us a new one that none of us have seen. It's like he's got a lot of movies up his sleeve. We don't even know how many movies he's got up his sleeve, but he's, he's certainly giving us a lot of great movies. So here are the themes that you voted for leading up to this movie. They fit so beautifully. They dovetail into opening to the happy dream. Number one, coming in with the most votes by far was surrender to the flow. Let go of analysis. All the hippies from the sixties would love it today. Yes, finally, go with the flow. Let go of analysis. Get out your hula hoops. Let's do some hula hooping. Let's have some fun. Come on people now. Smile on your brother. Everybody get together. Try to love one another right now. If I had it, I'd put on some big sideburns in a big wig today. The hippies would love it. We're going for, we're going for go with the flow. That's what John Lennon and Yoko were trying to teach us years ago. How to go with the flow and live your life going with the flow, going with the guidance of the spirit, your intuition. Number two, remember to laugh. Oh my gosh, you voted again for laughter. And Jesus, Jesus is loving this. He's like, oh, you want to laugh? Okay, I'll, I'll give you a comedy movie again. If you're so intent on waking up to the happy dream and you want to laugh, remember to laugh. That's our second, second theme. So this movie is a comedy. Third one, transfer the training to all situations. Make no exceptions. That's basically one of the two guidelines that Jesus gave us in the workbook. Transfer the training, practice the lessons every day, try to transfer the training to all persons and situations without exception as best you can. So our third theme is basically one of the two guidelines of the workbook of A Course in Miracles. Next is called It's Being Uncompromising About Answering the Call. That's a theme I started talking about in Francis and I were talking about Friday when we opened the happy dream retreat about answering the call. There's great joy and happiness in answering your divine calling. And when you resist answering your divine calling, there's frustration, resistance, doubt, confusion. You know, it's not a pretty picture when you resist your divine calling because it's your real self that's calling you to be your real self. So there really can't be anything better than that. That's what your intuition is. It's calling you to be the real you, the happy you, the joyful you, the you that God created, the spirit you. That's all what answering the call is about. And the final one is releasing attraction to being a victim. That got 45 votes. And basically all of us know that when we believe in the thoughts and beliefs that tell us that we're a victim of the world or we're a victim of other people, or even that we're the victim of circumstances, that is the ego trying to keep us small, trying to keep us weak and limited. In truth, there is no such thing as mistreatment. There is no such thing as abuse. There is no such thing as being a victim. If you bring it all the way back to God, why would God create victims? You know, that doesn't seem like a concept that God would have anything to do with. If God is pure love, why would God create victims? Why would God create abuse? You know, I think Wenji was starting to ask me that question like, you know, does God make us suffer? Does God put us through lessons and test us and make us suffer? I know, I know, and I know, to all those three things. Nada, nada, nada. God is the God of love. Love doesn't have anything to do with the distortions of the ego because God didn't create the ego. The ego is the belief that separation from God is possible and separation from God is not possible. So EGO is the acronym edging God out. It's trying to make up a world and an identity where there is no God. But that's ridiculous because God is all. God, love is all. Even the Beatles, they had it right. You know, all you need is love. You know, they had it right. And while we believe we're in this world, we can say all we need is love in our hearts. And that's where we find our happiness. So I want to again come back to the teachings of the Course in Miracles where Jesus says, you cannot bring the truth into the illusion. You must bring the illusions that you hold on into your mind to the truth within, to the light within, and those illusions will disappear. That's the core teaching of a Course in Miracles is you can't bring truth into illusions. You can only bring illusions to truth and they will disappear. And that's something that takes a while for us to grasp because we're so used throughout history. We tried to make great temples and churches to reach God. The Tower of Babel, the famous story of trying to build a tower so high that you would reach God. The only problem is God isn't in the sky. God isn't in the in the celestial realms. God is in everything I see because God is in my mind. But that internal experience of truth can only be found by putting that as your top priority and then bringing all the dark thoughts, all the guilt, all the shame, bringing that to the light. Not hiding it, not hiding it, but just saying, I'm feeling bad. I must believe something that's not true. Please let me offer this feeling and this thought and this belief over to you and take it from me. Take this from me. And that's how spiritual awakening occurs is when you don't hide and protect anything. You don't keep anything buried in the subconscious mind. You know, you can just start right now with the prayer of your heart and just start calling out to the unconscious mind. Allie allie, income free. Okay, you can come up now. Whatever's down there. Oh, the boogeyman is down there. Okay, boogeyman you're welcome to. Everything's welcome. Come on up. I can see all of this will be shown away in the light, but I'm not going to hide and protect the darkness anymore. I'm not going to repress it. I'm not going to suppress it. I'm going to pray that it comes up so I can release it to the light and know my true self. That's the basic teaching. Now, it's good that we have a happy dream retreat because what I was sharing and what Francis was sharing is that you have to really go through the steps of releasing the self concept. Jesus tells us in the Course that don't be afraid that you're going to get hurled into the light because that would be more traumatic, he says, than beatific. So basically he's saying what you're experiencing as spiritual awakening is the most gentle process that I can give you because you have an extreme addiction to darkness. You're extremely addicted to fear, extremely addicted to shame, you're extremely addicted to guilt. And I'm not using those words lightly. Jesus knows there's an extreme addiction and that's why the process of awakening has to be gentle. Just like if you had a child who was in the middle of a nightmare and you went into their room and if you turned on the light and you shook them very hard to wake them up, they may perceive that you are a monster in their dream, in their nightmare, a monster with a big bright light. But if you were a loving parent, you would go in there very gently and maybe whisper very softly or maybe a soft caress on the shoulder or the back and gently try to awaken the child from the nightmare. You would not do an aggressive wake-up because if the child is in the middle of the nightmare, then it could be misperceived as an attack because that's what a nightmare is. It's an acting out of attack in the mind. So when we talk about spiritual awakening, we have to admit that there will be a period of time where there will seem to be a dismantling of the personality self and the self-concept of the world. And I say this can seem to be a struggle and a challenge only to the ego because obviously when you're in your right mind, you're welcoming this falling apart. You're welcoming it. You're saying, good, let it go. It never served me really. It never made me happy anyway. But the ego is seeing this as a loss because the ego made a false self image and now it doesn't want you to lose the false self image because its existence in your mind depends on you keeping this false self image and you don't want to do that. There's no way you want to hang on to this image of yourself. You want the real you. You want the spirit you. You want the Christ you. Now, to go through this dismantling is not going to just entail a phase of studying and course and miracles. I one time did a video and the title of the video was studying a course and miracles is not enough. That was the title of the video. Jesus didn't want you to end up being just a course student. That's just a little symbol along the way. But you're not to be a course scholar. The ego would have you try to just try to intellectualize the course and keep your personality self and keep the world as it is and then be a course in miracles expert or scholar. And Jesus is like, I've got bigger plans here. I want you to wake up to the light, not just rehash symbols over and over and over for 30, 40 years. I want you to actually have an experience of who you are because the Christ self is who we are and there is no substitute for that. Anything we can come up with in this world is a poor substitute for being a pure spiritual being of love and light. So during the first session of the happy dream retreat, we had different ones were saying the intensity that they're facing, the fear that they're facing, the panic that they're facing. And I was basically saying, well, Jesus has got the movie for you this weekend today. He's going to show us some characters that are going to go through a dismantling. And when you seem to go through the dismantling, it's a bit awkward. You know, even the word dismantling, it doesn't really sound too appealing until you realize that it's actually required and necessary to break through the other side to come through to the light. You have to seem to fall apart like Humpty Dumpty did in the famous fairy tale. Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall. Humpty Dumpty had a great fall. All the king's horses and all the king's men couldn't put Humpty back together again. So in one sense, the ego is like this egg. It is Humpty Dumpty. And it's going to fall off the wall. I'm in for it. Are you guys in with me? Let the egg fall. It's destined to fall and crack anyway. So why go get on with it? Why fool around? Why try to prevent the inevitable? Because the ego is not reality. So of course it's going to fall and of course it's going to crack. And I was saying during the yesterday's session that you want that crack to occur because the light will come streaming through the crack. And then you'll go, whoa, that's what I always wanted was the light. I wanted to bathe in that experience of the light. I didn't know that light was there, but it's there all right. And I can see it's coming through, streaming through the cracks. So in that sense, all is not lost when things seem to crack apart in your life. So our movie for today is called How Do You Know. And this movie goes back a little bit over a decade. And our main stars today, we have a great cast, Reese Witherspoon. Oh my gosh, she's going to play Lisa. Then Paul Rudd is playing George. We've have Jack Nicholson playing George's father, Charles. And Owen Wilson playing Maddie. And it's just a beautiful cast. And it's a relationship movie in which the two main characters are going to have their world fall apart. Lisa, who's played by Reese Witherspoon is basically a professional softball player. She's very good at what she does. She's very happy at what she does. She's having so much fun in her softball career for Team United States, for Team USA, that basically, her whole life revolves around softball. And she's good at it. She's really good at it. She's kind of the lifeblood of the whole team. She basically has the love and respect of everyone on the team. And then as she starts to grow older in softball terms, she turns 31, they have a new management team that comes in for Team USA, and they basically are going to let her go. So her whole world will seem to teeter as softball is her life. And when the softball is gone, then she really has to face things in her mind. And then George, played by Paul Rudd, is the same. He's an executive in his father, Charles Company. And he's a decent guy. He's not trying to do anybody wrong. He's not trying to cheat anybody. He's basically a pretty sweet guy. Of course, he has his own unworthiness and internal struggles around relationships, like everyone on the planet Earth. But he's a pretty decent guy. And then suddenly, things are going to go in a big turn in his life too. He's going to be accused of wrongdoing. He's going to receive a federal indictment, investigating him for some kind of wrongdoing or fraud. And he doesn't really understand what's happening. But basically, most everyone around him is going to start to get run away from him, because they think, wow, he is going down. He's being investigated by the federal government. And nobody wants to be close to him. They fear for their own lives in this, including his father, his dear secretary, and his colleagues. Basically, they're just going to all turn their back on him. And so what we have is a movie that's going to show us the dismantling of the self-concept for the main characters, for Lisa and for George. Most people don't react actually very well when the world starts to fall apart. When they start to have the worst day of their life, they start to panic or they start to question, what have I done with my life? Why is this happening to me? Those are the things that come up in the mind when the world starts to fall apart. What did I do wrong? Where did I go wrong? Why are these horrible things happening to me? And for Lisa, she wants to be positive. When you're the inspirational leader of your softball team, you want to be positive. So she's into affirmations. She's got little posted notes on her mirror. She's into self-help. She's trying to be the positive girl that people can trust and turn to that keeps the positive vibe for the team so they can win. But when her world starts to fall apart, then she starts to wonder, oh my gosh, what do I do now? I should get it together. I'm the positive one. I should have it together. And it's hard when you have a positive self-concept and it starts to crack. She has such a positive self-concept that she does all these affirmations and all these self-help techniques. But part of her benefits of her job, softball job, is that she has a free therapy session. But she doesn't even believe in therapy. She just tells herself, I don't need therapy. I've got it together. I've got it all together. So she has pulled some things from therapy that she uses in her mind. But a lot of these things are analytical. They're very intellectual and analytical. So she's now dismissed therapy because she feels like I've got enough cliches and enough positive things to keep it together. Well, actually, positive thoughts and negative thoughts are two sides of the ego. Basically, when we try to prop up a self-image with positive thinking, that's going to crack too. That's going to crack. And of course, so will the negative ones too. They will crack as well. But we're asked to open our minds up to the Holy Spirit's guidance and to the guidance of Jesus who will direct us specifically how to unwind from this faulty self-concept and will empty our mind of everything we think we think and think we know. And that means the positive and the negatives. Positive judgments are just as harmful in keeping you from the present moment as our negatives. In the Course in Miracles, Jesus says you have some dark thoughts, which we could call the negative thoughts, and then your positive thoughts are just shadows of the light. How do you like that? Jesus calls positive thoughts, shadows of the light. And he knows that we will never be content with shadows. Even these positive self-concept thoughts are just shadows of the light and they will never satisfy us eternally because our real thoughts are pure spiritual thoughts. What's a real thought? Well, there's a line in the, there's a workbook lesson. I am as God created me. That's actually a real thought. It's not a perceptual thought, but that's a real thought. I am as God created me. That's a real thought. I am spirit. That's another example for another workbook lesson. That's a real thought. There's no perceptual component to it. There's no body in those thoughts. There's no body at all in those thoughts. Those are just purely spiritual ideas. So in this movie, I think it's a very, very, very good teaching movie because we need examples to see when the main character's world seems to fall apart. How do they, how do they deal with this? Because we've had those same experiences where it felt like our world is teetering and falling apart. And we have to start to realize that the spirit is orchestrating everything in our perception to bring us back into our mind, into the light. What we could say is that in terms of the self concept, many of us have, have this word, vocation. What is your vocation? What is your job? What is your career? In this world, vocation seems to be something that's very important because it involves the survival of the body. What does Jesus have to say? He says, no, no, your vocation is healing, healing your mind. Period. The vocation is not about earning money, even though that's what you believe in. The vocation is really not survival of the body because the body, as I said during the first session of the happy dream retreat, the body is just a learning device. The body is just a learning device to help you free your mind from the ego. And the body is nothing more than that. I was using the example of a pen and a marker yesterday. You know, you can obviously see this is a communication device. This is a writing device. It's a device that's often used for learning. But we don't need to invest our identity in this thing. We don't need to make a career out of this learning device. We don't need to try to make it famous or wealthy. Learning devices are to find the spirit with. They're not, they're not meant to be made famous or wealthy. They're not meant to endow with all these skills unless you give the skills to the Holy Spirit and you say use the skills I've developed to bless the whole world, to bless all my brothers and sisters. Then you see the learning device and the skills can be used in a very helpful way. But the ego would try to use the skills and abilities to convince you that you're a person and you're a body. And that's not the lesson. The lesson is to forgive the body and forgive all the bodies and forgive the whole world. Like he says in lesson 189, forget this world, forget this course and come with holy empty hands unto thy God. Now that we can put our heart into. If we've had amnesia and we forgot God, let's do a little reverse amnesia on the ego. Let's forget the ego. Let's forget the ego and remember God. Let's turn the tables. Let the Holy Spirit and Jesus turn the tables here on this whole game. Say, whoa, let's shift it around here. So Lisa and George, they are going to have very difficult times as Lisa loses her vocation, her profession. And in one sense, George is also threatened with losing his profession and threatened with going to jail for something that he didn't do to go to prison, life in prison. So it's more psychological for Lisa. She's like, wow, if I don't have softball, then who am I? What am I? What has meaning in my life? If I'm not this very competent, admired softball player with all these group of women that are my teammates, if that's all gone, who am I and what am I? And with George, it's like, well, without this career and without this business, who am I if my whole career is taken away? And I think this is an answer to the prayer in our happy dream retreat where people are saying, wow, things do seem to be falling apart. I mean, I'm faced with challenges that I didn't think would be coming. I thought God would take care of me. Yeah, God, the Holy Spirit is taking care of you all right. But that is part of the healing is the divesting from the self concept. It's starting to let go of the appearances. It's starting to let go of the images that you've held about yourself. That's all very healthy. That's part of the healing process is letting go, surrendering, surrendering to no God's will, surrendering to the guidance and instructions of the Holy Spirit and Jesus. That's all part of the spiritual process of awakening. So when we look at this movie too, George has got some pretty strong entanglements with his father. I know some of you are going through this spiritual awakening and you're going, wow, it is intense with my biological family. Maybe it's with children or parents. Maybe it's with your siblings. It can be pretty intense when you start to wake up and you start to realize you aren't who you thought you were. And yet the people seem to be pointing to you as if you still are that one. And you're like, no. And you can't really explain this to anybody either. Try telling your mom that she's not really your mom. You're dead. Try to have one of those metaphysical conversations and tell me how it goes. We all start to realize it's a little sticky when we start to release these concepts from the past because there's a lot of investment. It's not just in our mind. It's also reflected in our siblings, our co-workers, our friends, our neighbors in our biological family. So George basically, he's got a father and his father is played by Jack Nicholson. And that's here for moms and dads. Can they play out those expectations in our mind for our future? Yes, they can. Bravo. Mom standing ovation. Dad, great job. You really acted out those unconscious expectations that I believed in about my life. And that's part of the humor of this is that George, Charles has a lot of pretty strong expectations and criticisms and opinions about his son, George. And George is a pretty sweet guy. But if you constantly have your father telling you, you know, you're weak or you're a wimp or you're not good enough, you know, it's not easy to go through life with a parental figure telling you you're not good enough. You're not a good enough son. You're not a good enough person. It's just a projection of guilt. And we need a movie that helps us untangle from this guilt. Because we can't blame the characters, we can't blame mom and dad, we can't blame brothers and sisters and children. It's all a projection of the mind. And we have to let the guilt be dissolved in. We have to raise up our unconscious mind, raise up that unconscious guilt, welcome it, and then give it over to the spirit and watch it disappear. Instantly, once we give it over. But if we hide and protect it, it's not going to be released. It's going to be clung to hell, pushed down, pushed out of awareness. And this is what happens in our relationships, you know, we get we're attracted to certain people and we're repulsed by other people. Those, those qualities of attraction and repulsion are part of the ego. And it's part of the ego's game to keep us guilty. It keeps us caught in the loop of attraction and repulsion. And oftentimes, as we start to practice this, the course, we start to dismantle and then we start to really say, who can I trust? Who are my friends? And what is it that I want to really see in my brothers and sisters? Do I really want to see them innocent? Do I really want to see them without blame? Do I really want to see them in their perfection? Which is their spiritual reality? Or do I want to keep seeing them from the past? Which is the ego. And that past association stream of thought, that can seem pretty strong in our minds. You know, we're quite, we've been addicted to it, to this false stream of thought of who people are and who we are as a person. And it takes a bit of loosening to, to help us to be free of, of this. Now, one thing that we try to do a lot of times when our world falls apart is we're, we try to grab onto some semblance of love, of acceptance, of some semblance of, of connection. And the way we do this is we do this through relationships. This, this whole cosmos, sometimes I just call the whole cosmos distractionville. And part of distractionville is seeking for love in, in form. And we do this in terms of looking for love and interpersonal romantic relationships. And what we find is we get a mixed experience. We, we get ooh la la and we get pain. It's, it's a, it's a mixed bag when we go for it in this, in this way. So in this movie, Lisa, she's, you know, she's going to lose her whole identity as a, as a softball player. And she is going to try to grab a hold of some kind of intimacy in a relationship. And she's going to try to, she's going to try to console herself by having a relationship with the professional major league baseball pitcher for the Washington nationals. You see, if you're losing your whole softball identity, why not get into a relationship with a professional baseball player, you know, vicariously still cling to the softball identity, but now do it through a man, a professional baseball player, played by Owen, Owen Wilson with his blonde hair and his sweet baby eyes. And that's Maddie. She's going to try to distract away her sadness and hurt by getting into a relationship with Maddie. And Maddie, I would say like many professional baseball players, he has a huge fear of intimacy. He, he doesn't mind the body of Lisa, but he's not so interested in communicating with her. He doesn't want to hear her problems. He doesn't want to hear what's going on internally. He just wants her body basically in his life. And, and this is what happens. This is, this is because when we believe we're a human being, where we have a concept that's sitting on an unconscious mind. And if we could listen, what is this unconscious mind telling us, it's saying, you're special, you're special, and you deserve a special partner. That's how, that's how the unconscious talks, you're special, and you deserve specialness. And then we chase after it and it goes good for a while and then it blows apart, or it falls apart, or it turns into abandonment, betrayal, you know, we get to see what was underneath it, you know, abandonment, betrayal, rejection, you know, all kinds of dark emotions. So, so Lisa is going to try to distract herself away from her sadness, her inner sadness about losing her life and world as she knew it with, with Maddie. And for George, he's, he's like a fish out of water. He doesn't know what to do because everybody seems to be turning away from him. He's being indicted for something. He doesn't even know what he did wrong. He didn't do anything wrong. But the world is witnessing to him that, that he's done something terribly wrong. And so he's, he's just looking for a stream of hope. He's looking for a something just anything to, to help, help him turn away from these very dark feelings of unworthiness, the extremely dark feelings of unworthiness. And eventually we're going to see the Spirit, Jesus and the Holy Spirit are going to bring these two, Lisa and George together, for healing. In the middle of the worst day of their life, in the middle of the worst time of their life, when everything is falling apart, he's going to bring these two together for the purposes of healing, to find the love, to find true love, to find true healing. And this is how the Holy Spirit works. He uses what you believe in to lift you out of what you believe in, to take you higher and higher and higher toward the light, take you back to the light. And that's the process of healing. But when you're going through the darkness, it's hard to see clearly, you know, you, you may miss a lot of guidances, you may miss a lot of inner prompts because the self doubt and the dark thoughts can seem so heavy that, that even though the help is given you, you, you may not recognize the help. The help might be right in front of you. The help might be right in front of you. And yet when you're in a very dark state of mind, you can't always realize that the help is there. You may protest. You may vehemently protest. But the spirit is there saying, I'm right here. You prayed for this. You, you prayed for, for happiness. You prayed for love. You prayed for connection. So I'm sending you what you need the most to free you from your false beliefs. You see, I'm not trying to, he's not trying to send us a certain circumstance. He's sending us what will allow us to release these false beliefs and these false thoughts. It's like the old story when, when you're hungry, will God give you a fish or will God teach you to fish? You see, teaching you to fish gives you the sustenance. You can fish and fish and fish for whatever you need. But just giving you the fish is, is, is like a patchwork. Why would God give you a patchwork when God wants to give you the instructions for your consciousness so you can choose happiness? You can actually choose to be happy. You don't need circumstances to be a certain way or people to be a certain way. You just need instruction from the Holy Spirit on how to actually choose happiness. And that's what we're going to do with this movie today. We're going to practice learning how to release the false beliefs and then choose the happiness of the happy, the happy dream, which is always available to us. So sit back, enjoy the movie, and I'll be there during the movie. I'll pop in and also I'll pop in, of course, after the movie for us to share, share that moment of healing release. Enjoy.
