But the time is 'Now'


Suddenly I discover that days have dissappeared, no idea what happened only an awareness of a quickening. Like finding myself in a new dimension.

Here at The Finca out of nowhere seemingly new identities with A Course in Miracles under their arm arrived. Must be like as in the movie kung Fu Panda: "No Mistake" but a great renewing experience for all.

Not only that in the final game of the World Cup Soccer I find myself as the only Dutch born among 25 hot headed Spanish teachers watching the end result between Holland and Spain. A real dramatic dream episode, but total fun for all.

Winners and losers we have seen on our screens over the last 4 weeks, to realize that each experience will only be a gift of self-recognition. The agony and extacy of playing a game in space and time. Time the tool to remember who I Am.

This is the final point to which each one must come at last, to lay aside all hope of finding happiness where there is none; of being saved by what can only hurt; of making peace of chaos, joy of pain, and Heaven out of hell. Attempt no more to win through losing, nor to die to live. You cannot but be asking for defeat.



Yet you can ask as easily for love, for happiness, and for eternal life in peace that has no ending. Ask for this, and you can only win. To ask for what you have already must succeed. To ask that what is false be true can only fail. Forgive yourself for vain imaginings, and seek no longer what you cannot find. For what could be more foolish than to seek and seek and seek again for hell, when you have but to look with open eyes to find that Heaven lies before you, through a door that opens easily to welcome you?
