The Land of Make-Pretend.

NOTHING is as it seems. The world is in tremendous chaos right at this moment which means you need to be especially vigilant to move away from your five senses. Do not believe anything your body’s eyes or ears report. Start listening with your heart. Start trusting your gut.

Today’s lesson says:

“Let not our sight be blasphemous today, nor let our ears attend to lying tongues. Only reality is free of pain. Only reality is free of loss. Only reality is wholly safe. And it is only this we seek today.”

Here is a letter printed in Salon.com, and it is shocking, but while I was reading it I had a thought: I wonder if this article itself was ghost-written to wreck the McCain campaign? The gift of this article is that is shows me that my five senses have become utterly useless. I cannot trust anything my body’s eyes see or my body’s ear hear.

I ghost-wrote letters to the editor for the McCain campaign.
by Margriet Oostveen

I spent a morning in John McCain’s Virginia campaign headquarters ghost-writing letters to the editor for McCain supporters to sign. I even pretended to have a son in Iraq.

    Hi, Lisa,
    I didn’t want your post today to get lost in a strange silence. There is something about the money issue that feels like a grip around our throats for too many of us. I feel it stronger than ever these days. We (my family) are experiencing a serious financial crunch and really wonder HOW we’ll get through it, although in my heart I know we will get through it somehow.
    Honestly, I’ve been feeling a little guilty for not having contributed to your wonderful effort with “money” even though you’ve mentioned more than once that you could really use some help in that regard. I’ve prayed for you and your readers so this blog could continue as long as it’s needed, and I’ve blessed you with all my heart, but … no monetary contributions.
    My rationale has been that God will support you as long as enough of us are truly benefiting from your blog and putting what we learn to good use, but unfortunately we’re still in that “transition” stage on earth where money is still needed even for things that bring us closer to God and to freedom from worries.

    What can I say. I’ll try to muster a modest amount, but in no way can I commit to a steady support. By the way, that was one of my initial 5 wishes – to be wealthy enough to be able to bless all the wonderful people and organizations I know of with the financial support they need to continue their work. But then I thought it better to wish for those people to be solvent enough to not need my help! And better yet, I wish for the world to evolve into a money-less society, everyone doing what their hearts leads them to do for the benefit of all … but that’s another book.

    I do hope you are able to stay with us a while longer – you’re touching a lot of people in a special way.
    We love you, Lisa.
