I'm Fighting This War Too - in MY way!

Written by June McHardy


Continued from page 1

Remember that our current physical world is a result ofrepparttar collective world consciousness. The wars, terrorism and disunity among countries at this time isrepparttar 123602 direct result ofrepparttar 123603 choas and stress in our current world.

To change this one has to start atrepparttar 123604 beginning. With ourselves.

And it's not as big a job as it appears. There is already a ground-swell of increasing spirituality emerging in our world. More and more people are acceptingrepparttar 123605 responsibility of directing their own lives, both physically and spiritually. More and more are finding out for themselvesrepparttar 123606 dramatic effects of positive thoughts on their own lives and onrepparttar 123607 lives of others.

If this is really true then why not put this principle to work now? It may be just as simple as makingrepparttar 123608 decision to collectively increase our positives thoughts and feelings and neutralizingrepparttar 123609 negative ones in this very stressful time.

Shall we put it torepparttar 123610 test?

Here are my personal aims:

I can choose to focus onrepparttar 123611 facts ofrepparttar 123612 case, listening only to keep informed.

I can choose to 'know' that good will triumph over evil.

I can choose to pray forrepparttar 123613 coalition leaders in their decision-making resulting in a speedy positive resolution to this war.

I can choose to helprepparttar 123614 troops andrepparttar 123615 country though letters, goods or donations torepparttar 123616 many related programs.

I can choose to remain loving, joyful and centered regardless.

I can choose to do my work torepparttar 123617 best of my ability regardless.

I can choose to fight this war in THIS way.
