Once there was a child walking on a beath throwing starfishes back into the ocean. A man came along saying "Look, there's thousands, if not even millions of starfishes here at the beach. Don't you see that trowing some of them back into the ocean doesn't make a difference at large?" The boy picks another starfish, looks at it for a moment and then thows it back far into the ocean, mumbling "for hin it does make a difference!"

Anyways, the Child could probably not get the medicine from somewhere else, but as I said, I'd then pray for myself, and if I give, I will receive myself. If I ask for what I want, it is given to me.

Does that make any sense to you, especially if you view yourself not from the 80-120 years you are bound to this particular body and life, but from the perspective of 15 billion years of existence so far, and consciousness at large?

Of course not, as there is no right or wrong about darkworking or lightworking.

I think you have to come to a point where it feels right and you go with it. Plus you can continue to adjust over time if what feels right changes.
But then I still have to find out if it just feels right or wrong because I was mislead in some way or because my mind is clouded, or if it still feels wrong when I put it into the brightest sunlight and watch it from all sides. Steves suggestion to gain more clarity by watching something from multiple perspectives seems to be good after all.
