God said:

Set your sights high. Never mind any distance between the sights you have set and what occurs. Anyone can measure fault. It takes no talent. You may be an expert at that already. Certainly, you need no practice.

Now practice at continuing to set your sights higher. Keep the light shining high before you. When you climb a tall mountain or scale the side of the Empire State Building, you know better than to keep looking down. This applies the same to life.

You would not measure the distance between what you desired and what befell unless you were looking back. You may call looking back facing reality. You may call it whatever you will, but you are looking behind you. You are not facing reality. You are shaking your finger at the past. You are pointing out the errors of its way. You are scolding it. A lot of good that does! The best it does is make you bemoan the past. Bemoaning is not a high vibration, beloveds. Did you think it was?

Or perhaps you thought it clever to point out to the past its failings. The past doesn’t care what you call it. It makes no difference to the past. The past knows it is all said and done. The past is smarter than you, for it has already moved on to more fertile fields. In that respect, beloveds, be as good as the past that knows to move on.

You are not here on Earth to prove anything. Give all the proof you want, and what have you proved? The world is spinning under your feet, and you are miles away, and you make your proofs, and you build a case to prove to yourself what you already knew. And, yet, here you are. You give substantial evidence of errors the world has made, and you point out what it should have done. I will not point out to you what you should have done. I will point out what is right in front of you now. I will tell you to face front. Past skirmishes are over.

When you don’t have to prove anything, you are freed. If you insist on proving something, prove then that there is a clear slate before you. Prove that you will not be hung up on the past. Put your records away, and take out a clean piece of life to write on. Your life may be a story, but your life is not writing that you are to go back and edit.

The best you can do is to make your story better from now on. To do that, put the past aside. Let it go. It will go in any case.

All your references to the past and its misbehavior are only throwbacks to the past. You are like an old veteran of the wars who pounces on his old stories again and again. He loves to go over the battles he fought and fritter over the past and neglect what is right before him. Beloveds, the past is no more good to you than it ever was.

Do not be a collector of the past. Do not fill the drawers of your mind to overflowing. Do not keep every rubber band and twist-it that has entered your mind. Let them exit. Keep your mind uncrowded so that you are clear and forthright and engage what is yours to engage. Back off the past. Never mind it. What is in your hand right now?
