From Sam's session onwards, pieces of the puzzle were tumbling into place both in healing sessions and when I was working with my own feelings to find out what my soul wanted me to know.

This next story led to the insight about how our unspoken "stuff" - thoughts and feelings - can become someone else's reality and how we can change that. This is the situation that led me to realize how not listening to the messages from our soul in our interaction with someone else, can escalate over and over again into actual conflict. In fact, this situation, coming so soon after the other stories here, led me to realize that peace on earth in our lifetimes was possible.

This insight came when Fred was telling me about a lady friend who was ringing him for advice about a horse that she was really frustrated with.

This lady's horse was giving her grief in such a way that Fred could see the ugly progression that was likely to happen to the horse. Sold off as unmanageable, going through the sales a few times, maybe lucky enough to be bought by someone who knows how to fix what's going wrong, but most likely to end up in a can of dog food eventually. That's what happens to most problem horses.

So, here he is, listening to her, trying to be encouraging about the things that sound OK, because that's the kind of person Fred is and wants to be, someone who is kind and encouraging. But underneath, Fred is thinking "bloody hell, why don't you just do it properly? I've explained that Jenny's clinics train you to connect with your horse in such a way that problems like these are easily overcome. Why don't you just come and do a clinic with Jenny and sort it out? And why the bloody hell do you ring me for advice and then never take it? It makes me so frustrated!"

As Fred was talking, I got a clear vision of what was happening.

Fred was saying a bunch of nice words with his mouth, but underneath there was a whole bunch of frustrated and angry thoughts.

His lady friend was sensing these unspoken angry emotions AS IF THEY WERE HER OWN. She was already frustrated and angry with her horse and then she added Fred's unspoken anger and frustration to hers and then she felt reee...ally

angry and frustrated. And when she didn't do anything about her feelings of anger and frustration either, then Fred sensed those unspoken / un-acted on feelings AS IF THEY WERE FRED'S OWN and then they escalated what FRED was already feeling.

And the escalation of what was originally a minor upset, kept happening until they both got off the phone having had a very unsatisfying phone call (that's the classic Aussie understatement!), both cross with each other and neither understanding what just happened - because neither of them understood the impact of their unspoken thoughts and un-acted on feelings on the other person.

No way was this lady ever going to be able to take Fred's advice under those circumstances - she was too busy defending herself against the yucky feelings that she was experiencing that were Fred's unspoken criticism. And then she got off the phone totally unaware of why she was resisting Fred's advice.

As I understood this, I could see how people could actually come to blows about these escalating upsets. Wow. And then to see how world leaders came to wars the same way ...

... And to see how we can truly have peace on earth in our lifetime...
