Rejection





Q:  This is my first experience with you and I feel overwhelmed with all
the information you have given.  I'm concerned with the fact that as a
person, I withhold; I don't allow myself to give freely in relationships.

B:  All right.  But again, relax.  You will know what you need to know when
you need to know it.  Not one second later, but not one second sooner
either.  Relax, knowing that you know what you need to know. Now, in what
specific way do you feel you withhold?

Q:  In trusting.  I have a great tendency to build walls to shut people
out.

B:  And what is it you are afraid they will find?

Q:  That I'm not sure of, but I feel I would be rejected by them.

B:  Rejection.  All right. May I ask you a question?

Q:  Yes.

B:  If you were to go up to any particular person in the group that you are
with would you expect that person to suddenly rip off one of their arms and
throw it away?

Q:  No.

B:  Then why would anyone want to reject another part of themselves, even
if it is represented by you?

Q:  I don't know.

B:  All right.  Maybe because they do not see you as a part of themselves,
that might be one reason.  But if they do not then that is their
limitation, not yours.  Do you understand?

Q:  Yes.

B:  If a person acts as if they are rejecting you what they are doing is
actually rejecting a part of themselves.  There is something about
themselves perhaps they do not wish to look at.  But at the same time it
may also be a reflection that you are also rejecting and in this way they
serve you, by mirroring your fear and giving you an opportunity to learn to
love yourself as you are.

You may have been brought up, in your reality, buying into, soaking up,
absorbing a lot of belief systems that make you feel -- less worthy than.
But all you really need to do is understand that you are unique for a
reason and that your uniqueness exists for a reason.  And, if you exist,
then you deserve everything you can imagine within that existence, within
the recognition and understanding of your natural self -- you deserve it
because you exist.  If All That Is, or what you may wish to call the
Creator, if the Creator obviously believes you deserve to exist, then
obviously you are worthy.  And If All That Is didn't reject the concept of
you, then obviously you are worthy of anything.  If you are worthy of All
That Is, why not treat yourself with the same respect that All That Is has
for you in having created you? Why argue with Creation?  "Well I
understand, Creator, that you think I'm worthy to exist, but I want to
argue the point."  Well, the Creator loves you so much that the Creator
allows you to argue the point. That's how much you are loved. You are all
so loved that the Creator allows you to forget that you are loved, that's
how loved you are. Now, think about how loved you are and then make an
attempt to compare any other concept of rejection against the ultimate
acceptance that the Universe has for you and it will pale by comparison.
How does that feel?  Do you feel a little more worthy?

Q:  Yes.

B:  A little more deserving?  A little more of a right to be?

Q:  Yes.

B:  Has this helped you?

Q:  Yes, it has.

B:  You know what?

Q:  What?

B:  We love you, All That Is loves you... all ways... always

Q:  Thank you.  I love you too.

B:  Thank you for your sharing.  Pleasant dreams to you.
