it is funny, if you say it to people just out of the blue...their eyes glaze over and they go "huh?". and then you can see them pondering it for the rest of the day, especially if you just say "huh?' back and leave them to figure it out or not.
The most significant thing for a parent to contribute to anyone, is their own Connection and their own stability. An effective parent is a happy parent. An effective parent is a parent who laughs easily and often, and who doesn't take things so seriously

So now, is it starting to make sense when we
say to you, "Seek joy"? Joy is the purpose, because
in your joy, you connect to the Energy that
makes things happen. Aren't you knocked over by
this Earth? Isn't it awesome this massive space? This
big chunk of matter? Don't you find it remarkable?
Now try to find action in any of that. Who built it? Who
scooped up that much dirt? Who used physical action
to scoop it up and make it be?
This is not the nature of Creation.
Creation is not and has
never been about action. It has always been about alignment
of Energy. So when you focus upon alignment of Energy
time becomes irrelevant. And when time is irrelevant, it
will be so expansive that you will wonder where it always was.

Questioner: I was reading something that Wayne Dyer wrote, that if you
don't get past forgiving and resentment, you can forget about getting
to a higher spiritual level. How do you know when resentment is
resolved, or how do you know that you've forgiven?
Abraham: We like to tease everyone, especially him [laughter], by
saying you don't have to offer forgiveness if you've never condemned
to begin with. And the Source energy part of you has never condemned.
But let's talk about this—you're really going to like this … if the
Source within you is one who loves, and that is the case, and you have
yourself focused upon something where you're feeling resentment or
unfairness, injustice, and you're all balled up over it, what that
means is you're looking at that situation in a way that the Source
within you will not look. So the feeling of forgiveness is the feeling
of relief you have when you start turning downstream and you start
seeing it more like the Source within you sees it. So those are really
accurate words because until you come into alignment with who you are,
you cannot achieve that enlightenment. We want to remind all of you
that enlightenment is not something like a college degree, that once
you achieve it is yours forevermore; it either is or it isn't in the
moment, depending upon what you're doing with your vibration.
So isn't it logical that, since you are a lover when you're loving,
forgiveness isn't an issue—it's alignment. But if you are hating, now
you're upstream, and you've got to turn back toward love or forgiveness.
But we don't like to use the word "forgiveness" because "forgiveness"
sounds like taking something back. And you can't ever take anything
back. Instead, we would like to call it redirecting the vibration of
your thought into alignment with who you really are.

And so your forgiveness—in essence, you weren't so much forgiving
someone for what they did as you were finding a way of looking at it
that allowed you to align with the way your Source sees it. So
interesting, because it feels like it's about what somebody else did,
but it's not. It's always about letting yourself be who you are or not.
You are a lover, and when you are not loving, you're not who you are.
And so, many would say that when you forgive, then you are who you
really are. And we say it's not forgiving that makes you who really
are, it's looking at it the way your Source energy looks at it that
makes you the way you are. And you're right—your Source energy will
never condemn anyone
