MAKING CHOICES IN MY QUIET PLACE

THE GOD GAMES: Heaven & Hell...Chapter 10...

It was early morning in my quiet place; salty air swirled around the meadow making the area cool and moist. It was refreshing to my body and spirit; a perfect day for meditating and planning.

I sat on my white rock and felt it gently conform to my body. I took some deep breathes and stretched my limbs, then I cleared my mind of all else but the deep pece and beauty that surrounded me, and closed my eyes to meditate.

I felt a presence around me and opened my eyes to see my daughter, Carol, standing in front of me. She was so beautiful with her long black hair and tender, dark blue eyes.

"Good morning mother, how are you feeling," she asked. "I have come to help you sort through your thoughts and feelings, and help you see the threads of your life game plan. May I sit down with you?"

"Surely, Carol, welcome to my quiet place!"

With that said, Carol also sat on my white rock chair and I was amazed to see the rock expand and conform to her body also.

"Have you thought about setting up your goals and actions in this new life game?" Carol asked.

"I have a sense, a slender thread of a plan in mind at this time. I have come to realize that even here there are consequences-even though they may be future consequences-for your actions; your choices. For every choice I have made there are consequences that I see in the next step and set of choices I make. Why, my choice to have children, to be a mother, affects every other choice I make. One thing I know, my main goal, my first and constant choice, is to be a mother, all else pales before that choice."

"Well I am certainly glad for that," said Carol. "let's just look at some of the consequences you have already set up for yourself, as you've made choices in your journey through the houses on the Isle of Purpose.

"You know you are going to the planet Earth; to be born in the city of San Diego, in the State of California, and in the country of the United States of America. That is a fortuitous place of birth that you will be very pleased with.

"You will wrestle with the issue of adoption and the confused feelings that are a result of that choice, but you will be glad you have the parents you have chosen.

"All of your life you will have a drive to learn about everything, especially religion, which will cause you much confusion, until you have come to a place in your life when you come to terms with all you have learned on this subject. Your drive to learn will lead you to a strong desire to go to college, you will be faced with a decision of whether to go to a college and get an advanced degree, or to become a mother first and get your education later.

"Your next challenge is to figure out how many children to bear and how to have a choice in the matter. Then, as you have just learned, you will also be called upon to raise four step children and you will worry if you will have enough strength and endurance to see that challenge through.."

Tomorrow, the conclusion of my quiet place choices...
