ON A DEEPER LEVEL....

There's always a reminder of the old things when we try to focus on the new...

It could be anything ... but its still a reminder. It is still a test.
And a reminder always tests us to see if we really are moving ahead of the old ways, the old things that we no longer need or want and have outgrown...

As soon as we make the comittment to move on, things suddenly turn up from the past... now more than ever... and Spirit watches to see if we are ready to move on...or if we will fall into old habits or negative traps...

But when we get that reminder and we really SEE that we are past this challenge, it feels great!

Then the reminder (or test) becomes a cause to award ones Self - another hurdle, another chapter.... no reminder will ever bring back the old ways.

Then WE KNOW we have moved on.

Challenge complete.

When a reminder trap comes: Think in higher thought, act with good intent, be 100% blunt and truthful to your Self and the other (if the reminder is a person) and cleanse out all the negative thoughts. then you know you can't fail! Fuinish it off with awarding your Self for taking it on and then move on.
