I would probably if in your shoes.. recognize what I'm doing in the moment.. say either this doesn't serve me.. or "how does this serve me?"

And ask for imaginations that are more positive..

Your imaginations.. seem to stem from the idea that there is a right thing to say.. that you need to be on guard in your conversation.. for that comeback, that quip etc.

I would simply state you "do not" need to be on guard..

While it's a radical idea

My teacher says that we are going to in a sense de-evolve

the idea is that.. we EGO too much of everything.. the EGO is a crux planner, it plans for nuclear war

, it plans for what to pick up on the way home, it plans for proper can order in the cupboard..

My teacher states that as we become more our true selves we will give up the EGO planning.. know that it is not our job to THINK (it isn't) though we certainly think it is

, and live in the moment requesting information etc. what we need in the moment in the moment.. this is how the animals live..

My teacher says it this way.. a cat doesn't plan things.. in the moment it decides to run up a tree, trot through a field, jump onto a fence.. it doesn't need to connect slot a, to insert hole c, to make field jump d (in essence I've just given you a description of a child's day too.. do we think 5-8 year olds wake up and realize I need to drive to the store, so I can get pet food, so I can open the pantry?)

It is a different style of thinking and being I'm talking about.. here are some abraham intentions if I remember them right, they may help

- Reach for the best feeling thought
- Take the path of least resistance
(yes I have memorized these

)
