What do you have to lose?

When I hear all the complaints from several people around me, I get mostly a story 
like this.

We all were born healthy without any limitation.
Then the time came to go to school and people became more important.
- The boys and girls became a part of my life.
- The start of a new part in life was there and the first turn came along.
- More and more it looked like others did not like me, telling me I was ugly.
- This was for me the reason I went my own way.
- My parents did not understand me and they had enough problems themselves.
- After finishing school I found a job, not the one I wanted but it was a start and
enough to make a living in a small apartment I had.
- I found the love of my dreams, a person with whom I was incredibly in love and so I 
  married him/her.
- Then the children came, they were not always wanted, because the problem was how 
  to get more income.
- In that time my dream lover turned out not to be the one I thought he/she was, 
I did not get so much help from him/her.
- He/she left me and there I was standing alone in life.
- That endless feeling people did not like me neither my dream lover, the kids who were 
  not able to bear me.
- My life went more and more downhill, I had health problems, financial problems but 
I had to go on with my life. 
- My health went to the lowest level ever and I was hospitalized.
- I had to go on to finish this life full of problems, pain and misunderstanding.

Okay, this is a short story that fits many people. Some stories are more dramatically and 

other ones more painful. It depends how far you get in the hole of sicknesses, alcohol or 
drugs. These people have one thing in common, they think they have to fight for their lives. 
Because life is full of misunderstanding and they have a miserable health. There are people 
who are so far down in that hole they cannot see any light around them. No way to go, 
no solution.

I started this chapter with a question: "What do we have to lose?". My answer is: 
Everything you see around you! There is so much you do not see around you when you are 
in that hole. There is so much, so much positive energy, but you are locked down in misery. 
You are not in that hole because they want it, no it is because you did allow that! No matter 
how deep that hole will be, there is always a way to step out of it and go on. We all came 
into this world to learn, to understand and to live. We have to learn how we can go to another 
level in life. A path you have to follow, to understand and to go. You have to go on in life and 
by turning it "off" your life will be no answer to the Universal life. There is no dead in a 
Universal life and so all the knowledge from each life is important to reach the Universal level.
 
As you know we are here to learn. Learn to make decisions, learn to listen and learn to 
believe and to understand. Believe and learn to work with your own power and learn to 
understand the decisions you will make. Maybe it looks complex but all human beings are 
capable to work with the information I give you. Your life is created by yourself, there is a 
road to go, but it is you who decides which path you want to go to accomplish your task. It is 
up to you to decide where and which turn you will make. In your life, you alone will make for 
over millions of decisions, good and wrong ones and all those decisions will bring you to 
another path. So not one human life is the same, but the total story will be almost identical 
to another.

Really important is, you are never alone in life. You have always other human beings, 
animals or plants around you, just what you need in that specific time in your life. As baby 
most of us have a mother or a father who takes care of us. If not, there will be someone else 
who takes that job over so you can start your life. Beside of the one or two people who are in 
the beginning with you there is a third one you do not see but feel and hear. He will be there 
your whole life and some people give him the name angel, inner voice or guide. The first years 
in life we mostly listen to that guide, we talk to him and so we find our way to grow up and 
we learn what we need for the rest in our lives. It is a beautiful time, because we listen what 
we have to do and so we come on places we cannot imagine in a normal human brain. 
Then we grow up and think we have to listen to our friends and teachers while shutting 
down our feelings. The connection with our guide will go down to a very low level. 
Sometimes you do unexpected things and these are the very few moments the guide is 
helping you, showing you what is possible. Then there is the big turning point where you 
believe you can do everything by yourself! No feelings anymore, no listening, only doing 
what you want and the way you see it. On that point the negative energy gets his free play 
in life and settles itself everywhere and shows up when it wants.  You get sick, do not feel 
well, and get problems with others and so on. More guides are there trying to tell you that 
you are on the wrong path but there are no receivers to collect these signals. 
More disappointments, more pain and thoughts that nobody likes you, all these feelings
will take over your life.

Understanding is very important in life. Understanding why you are on that point, why 
things get so negative and why people react so negatively to you. Understanding is 
important. One rule and a good explanation is; action causes reaction, that's what is 
happening during our whole life. Example; When you have a bad day and your son is 
asking you a question and you yell at him; "I don't have time" your son will leave sending 
you negative energy. So you are getting negative energy from your own and from others. 
You have a bad day, your son is asking you a question, you tell him what the answer is 
and your son will walk away with the feeling "wow my dad is the greatest".  You get then 
this positive energy that will eliminate the negative energy of yours.  And so your day 
will end in a normal and quiet way. This is worth a try; Go standing in front of a mirror 
with your negative energy and see yourself as a big mess, that energy is going into that 
mirror coming back to you and you feel sicker than before. Go standing in front of that 
mirror when you do not feel well and smile to yourself and tell that person in front of you 
"Hi man you look good". That positive energy comes back to you and you feel better.

Understanding is very important in life. Why do people react that way? Why do not 
people like me?  Those are questions you can answer by yourself. A person gives you 
back what you have given him. If you send out negativity you receive negative energy 
back. There is also another point, all human beings have their own lives, own problems 
and so they have to deal with a lot of negative energy. When you come to them with 
your negative energy that can be just the last straw for them and so they get irritated. 
It is important to understand why people react in a particular way, try to feel and see 
why they are doing that. You have to respect their lives, their problems and the way 
they are living. It's not always easy to keep in mind, not everyone is as far as you are 
in life or you are not so far as they are.

Do we have to live? Yes we do. Living is not like coming here on earth sitting on a chair
waiting until you will have your last breath. This will be then a wasted life and you have to 
do this over again for sure. In each life you have to accomplish something, you have 
something to learn. Work with the possibilities you get in life, the turns you have to make 
and the roads you have to follow. A handicapped human coming on earth has also a task
to fulfil, people who are blind doesn't mean  they have to sit there and let go. All human 
beings have to accomplish something and by listening to yourself and to your guide you 
will know what you have to do. It is not so that when you ask something you get an answer
but by listening to what you feel and hear you can follow the path you have to go. There is 
always a goal in your life and always a goal to accomplish. However, it can be also that 
you have a task to fulfil for others. Only your guide and your feelings know what that will be. 
Have confidence in these feelings, they can bring you in different places in life and 
sometimes you make decisions you do not understand but by trusting your feelings, 
you will always be led to a good, healthy and pleasant point. Do you remember the 
advertising agency I had for 15 years? I got all matter I want, there was enough money 
but something went definitely wrong. My health got terrible and I was at the end of my life. 
Doctors could not help me till one of them told me to stop working! I said to him;  "I am 
over 50 years old and you want me to stop working, are you crazy?". But then some 
feelings came up when I read a small wise article. Moreover when my financial director 
told me I spent too much money! That night my guide told me; "John close that agency 
and have faith in me". The next morning I got up, took my key of the agency and 
collected all maps of orders I still had to do. I went to my customers and told them; 
"I am sorry, but I quit, I bring you all the maps I have from you, please go to a friend of 
mine". After some hours I was truly relieved, my agency was closed and there was no 
work to do. But what now, no work no income!  But I trusted my guide. After a few days 
somebody ordered a drawing and my website got a lot of visitors. Strange things were 
happening which I saw as gifts. There was always money to pay my bills, enough to eat 
for us even for my animals. I went healthy and my back got healthier than before. 
I started sculpturing and had lifted blocks of over 450 kilo. Now I do only one thing everyday: 
in the morning I speak with my guide and I listen what I have to do for that day. In  the 
evening I talk with him about the past day. I have true confidence in him and so all the 
good things come to us. If I have to make a decision or a turn in life, I know I am led by 
my guide and I will do what he tells me to do.

Now I come back on the title of this chapter "What do I have to lose?". I believe all lives 
have a goal to accomplish and if you do not listen to your feelings and your guide, you 
will lose the contact with the Universe and the path you have to follow in life and that is 
why you are here. It is important for your soul and for you as a human being to believe 
in your own life. When the hole is so deep that you think you do not see any light, then 
look again and you will find one little point in front of you, follow that and keep listening. 
Listen to that voice that is telling you what to do and even if it tells you to make a turn, 
do it and you will find a perfect place to be in life. See everything positively and when 
people are reacting strangely do not feel negatively, but try to see why they are acting 
like that, who knows you are the one who is there in them! Understand others and sense 
what they are trying to tell you. By following your feelings you will always get an answer. 
Following the feelings does not mean there are no longer ups and downs in life but as 
you can see, these ups and downs are reactions of yourself. Have a look in the mirror
then the downs will be not so deep, so you can stand up and walk further in life. These 
are lessons to get you to the level you should reach in this life. As I wrote a few lines 
back your guide has always an answer and you will always go the best path meant for 
you, just have confidence, that is important. Confidence and believe can make of your
life a healthy one, one without pain. A life full of understanding, love and happiness.
