Step Back

Step back, rise above it and tend to your own story
I want you to feel that your story here on earth plane is connectivity. That is your story. To be part of a team and not necessarily always knowing that that team is there. It can be a physical team or a metaphysical team, an unseen energy. Really, we want you to know that all of this energy is with you and you are immersed in it all the time, but most of the time you are not aware of it.

So when I say, I want to lift your awareness, that is because I feel that you need to have that knowing that you are part of a team.
Sometimes a leader of the team, sometimes a follower, depending on what you are doing on earth plane. Remember that earth plane is simply a base for you. You have chosen to come and use this unique place in the middle of humanity to work with other members of the energy team now.  I want to give you the idea that all of the universe works as one.
Sometimes it seems chaotic, but that is only to the human eye. The human eye sees things it wants to see, and if it is not all running smoothly and happily, then it must be chaos! There is no chaos, it is all one, but because humans create these chaotic events, it becomes that. You create a reality all on your own, we don't help at all. We just step back and rise above it and we tend to all of your stories – but only if you ask.
That is a wonderful saying that I want you to make more use of. Use it in a way that you emphasise a part of that saying. So to step back, means to get out of the situation, in your mind at least, even if it is not in a physical capacity. To rise above it, is to have a beautiful overview, a wide vision of what is really going on in your energy field. And to tend to your own story, is to come back into yourself and nurture your own self knowing.
Can you see how you can play with that saying. There are many variations. Play with it. It is a saying that I brought through your wife several years ago when she was speaking to Stephen. And that saying has persisted so that it can be applied to so many varied situations and to many attitudes that you have.
You can vary it anyway you like. Back into yourself can also mean, stepping away from being attached to your situation, let it go, do not hold onto it. There are so many things you can add to that. But the wide vision is so important because it gives you a clear view of what really is. And it helps with your discernment also. So you can then decide what action to take if any at all. Then to go back into your own story is to go back into that selfness and realise that you are part of it all anyway; but from a different point of view, you are then seeing the situation from your knowing rather than from your intellect.
So the initial reaction to a situation is seeing it from your intellect, then you follow through and see it from your knowing, from your heart.
There are many other sayings that we have given you. This one is probably the most important for you at the moment. So play with it.
Step back. Rise above it. Tend to your own story.
That is a good way of not getting involved with other people's problems, but at the same time caring. The caring will then come from your knowing. Caring with indifference.
That is a challenge for me, because I have a partnership between my intellect and my emotions, and that often neutralises my knowing.
Good, yes I'm glad you've sorted that one out. We have said all this, but the actual application is not as easy as it sounds.
I found myself being drawn into someone else's circumstances. I could feel the drawing in, and what was interesting it felt so right, because that is the old story of wanting to be wanted or useful.
So tend to your own story now. Step back out of it and see it for what it is.

That is the little lesson for today.
