Yesterday was one of those days. Internet was down, down, down. I survived!

Actually, I was pretty good about it.

Early in the morning, while the internet was still connected, of course, I had no idea that it would be off the rest of the day .

Apparently, based on the Heavenletter I received that morning, God did know. Perhaps He was preparing me. In any case, I did not fall apart. I really did take it in my stride. Life went on without the internet.

Here is some of what God said:

Begin to stay away from the idea that anything is wrong. Even when your computer is down, have the idea that it is right. It is giving you a break from it, at the least. Maybe your computer and you both need a rest. Is that really so bad?…

In any case, whatever may break down, you do not have to think of it as tragic.

In all cases, boundaries are slipping away. Attachments are slipping away. Is that not a good thing? You don’t want attachment to stick its claws into you.

See if you can be free from attaching in the first place. If you did not become acquainted with attachment, if you did not adopt it and bring it into your life, you would not have to let go of it. Perhaps from now on, you can be free of attachment in the first place.

Something wonderful happens when you are free from attachment. When you are free, nothing has to be the way you think it has to be, and so you bring great freedom into the world. It can snow in summer, and you won’t be horrified. You can be without electricity and anxiety at the same time. You can simply light a candle as though being without electricity were a fine thing. Instead of giving your power away to the utilities, you will light a candle and enjoy its flickering light. With or without this or that, you can enjoy life as it is meant to be enjoyed.

When you have attachment, you are stubborn and you balk at the unexpected that you did not invite. You stamp your foot, as it were, and say that  life is amiss. You resist the uninvited changes. You push against them. You use your God-given energy to brace yourself in opposition. Better to embrace, beloveds, do you not agree?

Adhere to the school of thought that says that everything can be the way it wants. The sun can shine, or it can rain, and you are fine with it either way. How beautiful it will be when you do not object, complain, fret, or mind at all. You will be as flexible as life itself. You will meet life fully but not head-on. You will greet life in whatever guise it appears as a friend, and so you will accommodate your friend. You will know that life does not have to accommodate you. You will love life in all its array. You will not tell it how it must dress. You will not order it around. You will become graceful. You will no longer argue the unarguable. You will be easy-going. You will become peace incarnate.

Is it any wonder we like God so much!
