Door #3

Carla Berg, August 2009

In this day and age we are so programmed to believe that those with money, power, or both, have decision-making authority over the masses. Systems, government, corporations, politics have become so overwhelmingly large or impenetrable that we feel as if we don't stand a chance if we want change. A part of us thinks that activism is the answer ? writing letters, pressuring politicians, protesting, boycotting, blogging ? but in our hearts we know the law of physics will mandate an equal reaction to our actions. In a world of duality, taking action against something will just create a tug of war that escalates with each tug. What are we left to do if we see something that we think is not in the best interest of the whole? Don't we have a say in what happens on this planet? Isn't it our world too?

What if, for once, it is our reactions, not our actions that create change? We know that thoughts are creative; we know our reality is a reflection of what exists in the mass consciousness, we know we live on a planet of free choice. So whether or not we have political power, financial power, or physical influence at all, we still have the ability to size up something we don't like and say to ourselves, "Not in my world!"

We don't have to know the solution to a problem or an alternative to a current way of doing things. We can simply notice something that needs to change and turn it over to the Universe to find the perfect solution. I like to refer to this as activating Door #3. It's an alternative to the polarized options we are so often presented with. Rather than choosing between liberal or conservative, consume or conserve, right or wrong, Door #1 or Door #2, we sidestep duality completely and opt for the unknown solution -- the perfect answer that only divine intelligence can deliver - Door #3.

Choosing Door #3 means putting down the rope in the tug of war and trusting that there is a yet-undiscovered solution that serves everyone's needs perfectly. It takes faith and surrender and some self-discipline to resist jumping into the fray, but ultimately it is our most powerful option if we are committed to creating heaven on earth.

So the next time you experience something bigger than you, that feels fear-based, dense, or unjust, (something that creates a reaction of "Not in my world!") go into your heart, let go of attachments to any particular outcome, and send some Door #3 energy to the situation, knowing that you've just created the potential for something amazing to emerge. It may take time, but without a doubt you will eventually find yourself saying, "Wow, there's a brilliant solution I never could have thought of myself! And I helped it happen."

Love and Light,
