“The physical world is our creation: we each create our own version of the world, our particular reality, our unique life experience. Because my life is being created through my channel, I can look at my creation to get feedback about myself. Just as an artist looks at her creation to see what works well and what doesn’t, we can look at the ongoing masterwork of our lives to appreciate who we are and to recognize what we still need to learn. We’re creating our lives as we go along; therefore our experiences and needs give us an instant ongoing reflection of ourselves. In fact the external world is like a giant mirror which reflects both our spirits and our forms clearly and accurately. Once we have learned how to look into it and perceive and interpret its reflection, we have a fabulous tool.”
