I like very much the idea of Abraham Hicks about ‘allowing’, like letting it in, like not resisting things. And especially allowing yourself and allowing others, although I still don’t fully get how it all works, but I have some idea and I do kind of agree with it, that it could work, that it works.
And it’s funny, because while writing I still don’t exactly know how Abraham Hicks came into being, if he is just a very good idea from Esther (and Jerry?) Hicks or if she believed herself that she was inspired by a spiritual entity. And yes, I believe there is more than what we (I?) just see as reality, so there is something like a spiritual force that makes things move, makes humans move. But I also see just very clever ‘personality development workshops’ behind the work of Esther and Jerry Hicks. So I’m not fully sure what to believe, but in the end that doesn’t really matter as the ideas are very good and I still use the stuff from the thirty day workbook I found some time ago.
And i’m still very much struggling with, or maybe a better phrase would be ‘working with’ this allowing thing, and the weird thing I found is that it seems to be easier to allow others to be as they are than to allow myself to be as I am. And somehow there is always something ‘ego’ in the background that want something ‘back’ when I allow something from someone else or give something to someone else. And that makes me feel guilty, although in the end I also believe there needs to be balance in the Universe and also balance in the giving and, yes the word taking is still there with me, receiving.
So somehow i still tend to ‘give’ and ‘allow’ too much, meaning I don’t take care enough of myself. And actually I am wondering if people recognize this, if you recognize this. And how many people feel like this.
So yes, looking forward to your comments on this subject.
