    @Lucy in the Sky Problem: disconnection. Solution: connection so connect with all disconnection so it feels connected again; meaning embrace all that arises, feel it, attune to it, allow it to be whatever, have compassion for it, honor and respect it, understand it, find approval for it; meet its physical, mental, emotional needs, desires consciously. Thank you for asking and sharing. Much love and compassion to all disconnection; suffering. 🌎💕 🕊

    I have been an ICU nurse for a very long time. The only patients who truly have shown inner peace while suffering and in pain are the ones who have faith. Their faith (regardless of religion) is empowering and I have wished I could have that in my life. Not that I do not have faith but theirs is of totally different caliber that brings them peace.... Surrendering to a higher power? Accepting their suffering? Thoughts?

    I agree in times of fear, worry, anxiety, doubt, etc....I give it to God I pray and surrender. I read my Bible listen to worship music and understand I have no control. I came here without control, what happens to me while I'm here I have little control and when I will leave is out of my control. I trust God and learning to stop relying on emotions, feelings, and thoughts that are constantly changing based off outside effects. I felt a connection with God I can never explain and experiences I have had that Noone would believe me even I doubted my own but it is powerful God Is powerful I pray for everyone's peace 🙏✝️ God bless everyone!

    Hidden in the second question there is a trap - "how can I be happy and joyful if they're not? So let me suffer and join them in their sadness, maybe this will help them..." Then the question remains - are you helping the world when you're sad? How sad do you think you need to become before your sadness can free all those people from suffering? And last but not least - which feeling will have you more motivated to do good deeds? Sadness? Or joy? When you feel joy and peace, THIS is exactly the best contribution you can bring to a chaotic world. Being sad along with the rest of humanity is just adding to the chaos.

    I had 2 NDE"s and was received and merged with the pure light of BEING. It was the greatest Unconditional Love, Compassion, Acceptance, Welcome with zero judgements. I was shown that I, the true "I" not the egoic identified small "I", agreed to this life and I had agreed to face some of the worst of human evil. The challenge was to remember who we ALL are and live from that state. Could I look at everything happening in the world, in my life experience, in the same way I was received in the NDE. Pure awareness, no judgements, as Eckhart said, a sense of goodwill no matter what, unconditionally. In my NDE's there was no separate God of any religion handing out rewards, punishments or judgement. All things of the mind dropped away. All beliefs, all judgement, opinions, gender, all of it, yet simultaneously, it was all included in the vastness of BEING. It's like I was nothing and everything at the same time. It has been a long, slow process integrating what I realized in the NDE's and gradually moving away from total identification with the mind made "me". I wasn't magically transformed from the experience.
