the war, is within you.

Change the world, by changing inside of yourself. It is really not
about what someone else does.. You are All that Is.. there is no-one else.

It is here.

Yes, that is normal for the list.. especially approaching a full
moon.. Carl Jung said, "There is no coming to consciousness, without pain".
Gratitude, makes pain turn to bliss via endorphin. <whack! thankyou
Mistress, may I have another?>
Approaching ego death, my guidance said, "Not for nothing, will this
be the hardest thing you have ever done". True.. and I would not change a
thing.

They cannot be reconciled. One must surrender to the other. Ego and
reason struggle for life, resist.. which makes it harder... it is the
nature of ego to resist, .. but I think you enjoy the struggle. :) The drama..

This is no longer needed. You can cast it off like an old sock.. and
Goddess will give you something better. You cannot tell how the battle
goes, when you are in the middle of it. You need some aerial
reconnaissance.. God's eye view.

Who makes it complicated?
I have been where you are.. I know your struggle.. Now I am where I am.
You have felt the glow of my energy.. it was attained, through
*unconditional* surrender, of *everything*. Abandoning reason.
You have 2 minds.. one is limited and uses logic and reason.. the other
is infinite and knows everything, outside of time. Which one, do you think
is better for making decisions with?
Reason will always give you reasons, not to surrender.. You can have
this huge love and spirit that others speak of, or your reasons why not.
You cannot have both. If you choose to have the reasons, no-one can change
that. No-one can surrender for you. No-one can end the battle within you,
except you. You cannot win over your ego, and you cannot win over Goddess.
You can only surrender.. then, the battle ends...
Blessings..
