The Truth Within The Process
by Tracy Phernetton
Together we are here, now, in harmony -- all our souls connecting in one spontaneous
arrangement of individual flavors. Now, more importantly than ever, we must immerse
ourselves in our quiet heart-spaces. The galaxies of yester-nows are communing together
to fulfill our true destiny. To fully Re-member the Truth.
So, you ask, what is the Truth?
So many pieces, so many players, and we all have such grand ideas, opinions, aspirations,
desires and unique contributions. Who is the one carrying the Truth? Which player
has the best ingredients for Truth? The answer is none, but yet in the same breath,
the answer is also ALL. The awakening that I am having today is that it is not our
opinions, nor our ideas, that make our Truths. The concept that has surfaced in my
consciousness is that our individual process is the answer we are searching for.
Truth is mine, and Truth is yours. But in no way, shape or form is my Truth "better"
or even "wiser" than yours. And now with the our brows raising at the thought
of a new
perception, let us evaluate what The Process is.
Moving through
This last month and a half has been one of those transitional awakening periods.
Much of us are moving through old thought patterns, and old belief systems, quite
rapidly. Moving through...let us look at this phrase -- "moving/movement."
In the Webster's dictionary, moving means: change place or position, advance. And
the description of movement is: act or process of moving.
We hear those kind of semantics very often in "New Age" or "Age of
Aquarius" type of settings. How often do you hear, "Yes, you will feel
very confused, and down, but this is good. You are releasing the old," "Just
follow your heart" or "We are all moving through a huge shift right now."
There is nothing "wrong" or "incorrect" with these statements.
Really it is the exact opposite: They are so accurate that I don't even think at
times we fully can digest how it is not just some fancy comment. It is absolute reality.
Once again, looking at moving through, I see my own personal experience over the
last month and a half, and I would now say, as I view it from the position of glancing
back, that it has been my Process. Process in the dictionary is: projecting growth.
Interesting.
How many times have you wanted so badly to "fix" your friends because what
you saw them doing "worried" you. Really, look at it. Your son, daughter,
mom, dad, ex-lover, employer, whomever they were, worried you because of something
about their "process." How does that help relieve the pain of your own
process? It feels like it helps, I know. Anything we can do to take the focus off
of our own process. But it is only temporary. Why, because within every process there
is a purpose, and a new birth of some sort. So when you watch your friend, lover,
mother, etc., rise above their pains, confusions, insecurities, and not only rise
above it, but become more powerful because of it, then the question begs to be asked,
"What the hell were you wasting your time worrying about that person for?"
I look further back at my episodes of fear, when I was still stuck in insecurities,
when I needed a man to love me, so I could love myself. I thought about this for
a moment. I was going deep into thought, as I often do, and I had this moment of
clarity. (I love those.) Then it hit me: If I hadn't made that choice out of fear
with that man, I wouldn't have the beautiful, awe-inspiring son that I have in my
life today.
So what does that mean? I asked myself.
And then I said it out loud to a friend, and his response was, "So fear serves
us too...hmmmm..." It definitely got me thinking. So I glanced over my past,
and all my so-called mistakes, and poor choices, and you know what? They are all
perfect -- and all part of my fulfillment in the Re-membering of who I really am.
My process is my Truth. That is simple. That is easy. Even though when we are "in"
the process, it is harder to see it as a gift. But that can become easier, with our
new awareness.
Disease of judgment
One of the biggest poisons in humans is the disease of judgment. What we do not understand,
we fear, and therefore we judge. The most revolutionary idea and belief is to drop
ALL judgments.
Many people see their fellow lightworkers and they see chaos, discontent and mistakes,
and they are forgetting to see past the surface level. They are then missing the
gift, I believe. If we only see exterior acts, and then judge them based on our old
thoughts/beliefs/fears, then what is really going on?
Make a commitment to your Self, to move pass the surface, and see the Truth. The
Truth is everywhere, inside everyone, and even playing out it every thought/word/deed.
It is my Process that has brought me to this moment, and I can reach inside and pull
out any of the tools I have gathered along the way. Many different experiences, such
as my personal battle with addiction, and alcoholism, have given me my compassion
for others. With my personal pains within the addiction, from lying, to stealing,
from driving drunk to attempting suicide, I can honestly look in the faces of others
today and know I have experienced my hell. I have felt the agony of destruction and
know there is nothing you could tell me that wouldn't "shock" me. My life
lived has given me my ability to oversee judgments, to let them go for the most part,
and see the light in every single person, no matter what.
If you would agree to believe that my active addiction was my process, then what
can you see differently around you right now? Look at the judgments you are holding
now. See them, and let them go, or just attempt to see through them. Look at others
around you in your life today. They are here with you on this journey for a specific
reason. Maybe you know what it is, and maybe you don't. If you are carrying any judgments
with you that prevent you from seeing the truth in your outer world, look again.
I challenge you to stop assuming and judging the surface levels, and also put an
end to the labels. Why do we limit our potential? Structure is for the people who
are afraid of not having control. If I can sit here and honestly say that my "conflicted"
past can bring me to such a blessing, then maybe we can re-evaluate our judgments/fears/worries
of the others around us. They are living within the process, and guess what? So are
you. By focusing on others, you may miss your own oppurtunities that you are creating
with your Self.
So the answer to the original question is: My process is Truth and your Process is
Truth, and it is equal in a individuated experience. That's all. But we must love
our own to love each other's.
Today, I can honestly say that I love all of you, all of your experiences, and most
of all, your process. And this is only because I have finally re-membered that no
matter what my process is, it is part of my full remembrance -- and I really love
that.
