Sometimes they make me so mad! How can I keep the feeling of Oneness with them in spite of what they do? Thanks for your help \u2026 Mia<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Dear Mia\u2026 Boy, do I know how you feel! There was a certain president here in the U.S. who spent eight years doing exactly the opposite of what I wanted. I spent tons of time trying to undo all the damage I thought he was doing because they were issues that were very important to me. I didn&#8217;t feel our Oneness because I was carrying a lot of anger and resentment towards him. Looking back on it now, I realize I would have handled it much better if I&#8217;d stayed in my God-space through it all. Knowing, as CWG says, that God is always Joyful, Loving, Accepting, Blessing and Grateful, here&#8217;s how that might have looked:<\/p>\n<p>1. I could have chosen to stay Joyful in spite of the things he did that I vehemently disagreed with.<\/p>\n<p>2. I could have chosen to feel Loving toward him, knowing that we are connected as part of the One.<\/p>\n<p>3. I could have chosen to be Accepting of his actions without condemning them by working toward a different goal without resistance.<\/p>\n<p>4. I could have chosen to Bless him, knowing he was doing what he thought was right and best, given his model of the world.<\/p>\n<p>5. I could have chosen to feel Grateful for the contrast that his actions provided me, giving me the opportunity to define and refine myself.<\/p>\n<p>So here is the challenge for both of us, Mia:\u00a0 Can we disagree with someone&#8217;s actions, yet stay consciously connected to them in a loving way? I believe we can, but it takes an ongoing mindful intention to do so.\u00a0As you see in my model above, it all comes down to choice.\u00a0It&#8217;s up to us to be the peace we wish to see in the world.<\/p>\n<p>Masters don&#8217;t let anything shake them from their calm and sense of Unity\u00a0because they trust that the Universe knows exactly what It is doing and It doesn&#8217;t make mistakes. They set an example for all of us to work toward that will benefit not only the little &#8220;us&#8221; but also the big &#8220;Us&#8221;. When we stay in our joy and peace regardless of outside events and others&#8217; actions, we stay vibrationally in alignment with all the good our Source has to offer, uplifting all of us.<\/p>\n<p>Hope this helps, Mia!<\/p>\n<p><em>(Annie Sims is the Global Director of CWG Advanced Programs, is a Conversations With God Coach and author\/instructor of the CWG Online School.
