It all starts with you. When you become aware of the thought and see it for what it is a judgment, you have crossed the first hurdle. The next step is asking yourself and your guides why is this here, what is it's purpose, and why do I believe this? When the answers come and they will, you will find all the things you chose to blindly follow and believe in were taught to you. You chose to believe in what you do. Now that you are aware of what it is you are thinking and believing in you can choose again and choose differently this time. It is all in the willingness. Everything we go through is for our benefit. There is a lesson to be learned in each and every experience. One may only witness the light if they are willing to step into the light of Truth. Otherwise the only thing they will witness will be the darkness of their own beliefs.
Blessings on your journeys my brothers. Hugs and love. You are loved. I love you.
