I just love this. Thought I'd share.
(14a) QUESTION: Dear Kryon: There's something that has been bothering me for quite a while now: the issue of "coming back" after being in lesson. It seems that many people who are here "in lesson," as you say, go to the other side of the veil (like all of us) following their transition, where they see things from a godlike perspective. Then they often choose to come back to go through another lesson. These Earth experiences, as you know, involve quite a great deal of suffering.
To me, this sounds extremely frustrating. From my perspective on this side of the veil, I would never choose to come back again. The fact that on the other side I would view things differently, "from a larger perspective," and choose to come back in spite of this adds to the frustration. It makes this cycle seem like a never-ending circle of suffering over which I have no true voluntary control (at least here). All it does is create a circle of endless suffering (albeit with some joy and peace throughout the experience). Is this the way it works, or do I have it wrong?
ANSWER: From your perspective, you have it right. Indeed, you would never choose to come back in hardship. But you don't have the mind of God while you're here, and that's the big difference. Also, because of your limited perception of the way this really works, you wonder if you're even in charge, or if you can do anything about it! You are in charge, and what you do today greatly affects your life the next time around... very much.
The only way I can really answer this is with a metaphor. Remember, all is not what it seems, and you're in a situation that's like a pot with a lid on it. After you get out of the pot, you get to see both the meal being prepared, the food around you, and the kitchen. You also realize that you're part of the team of chefs! All of that is hiding while you're in the dark in the pot, feeling only the heat.
Here is the metaphor... a story to imagine: You're a great thespian. You've been in so many plays that you're very good at it. Each day you return to the stage to play a part in front of an audience, and therefore actually change the energy of the theater. You absolutely love it, and you're getting better all the time. The theater reacts, too, and the audiences are often mesmerized by your wonderful abilities.
After one of the last curtain calls, you go to the manager of the theater and ask to meet with the cast and crew, since you have an announcement. When they're all there together, you say, "I've done this play over and over. I know all the lines and I can even play and speak the other parts. Please, please, put in a more meaty part... one I can use my real talents for. Make me the bad guy, or the one who gets killed. I can do wonderful death scenes! I want something that challenges my talent!"
The next time the curtain comes up, you indeed have the part you ask for: You're a Lightworker on Earth, challenged with dragging the bottom of the tank of Earth energy in order to expose hatred, move through death, challenge disease, and create drama in order to awaken others.
Do you see? You can't believe it while you're here, but your life is your own design, and it's also short by design, but it changes the planet and energy in the "theater" while you're here. And no matter what happened within this play, you can hardly wait to "take the stage" again.
This is why you're so loved. You're part of a grand plan that you cannot see, but which you're in charge of. What is inconceivable to you while you're here is your passion when you're not. This is the truth, but it may not sit well with you while you stew in the pot.
