Your Best Year Is This Year
We’ve launched into a brand new year, and I want this to be your best year ever.
Absolutely Yours has many posts with suggestions of specific actions to take. I call them do-this-posts. To prepare for today’s post, I combed through Absolutely Yours to find the ones that are essential for a great year and listed them below.
Read through the seven posts and choose three that seem to yell out, “Do me.” Next, choose the most appealing and follow the suggestion(s) for 30 days. Then, do the same with the other two posts.

Did You Miss These?
This is the first post of the new year, and it’s more or less a review post. I’m asking you to take another read – a careful read – of what I consider to be the best posts of the past year. I crawled through the 22 posts of 2022 and selected the ones that will give you the most bang for your buck. It’s only five posts.
Then, there is another list. After my first crawl, I started at the beginning (2012) and took a quick stroll through the archives of Absolutely Yours. While strolling, I asked myself, “If a reader did not read every post, which ones would I recommend?” It was a hard call, but I found three that deserve your attention – again.
Before I reveal the two lists, take a look at this email I received from one of our readers in the UK. People are experiencing Revelation, and this is the proof.
I have been questioning What is the body? for a while as I have tried so hard to fix, heal this diseased body for so long. And revelations have been pouring through as realization. The revelations are that what human concept calls/names body is actually God being. The human mind (which is just conceptual) is naming it body or car or tree but it is not.
God the infinite is that God is ‘everything’ of my experience. This realisation has brought immense peace love rest but also joyous tears that overflows. What I believe was my body is actually not mine at all, as God does not belong to anyone as there is no one else but God.
Only I AM and that I AM is the whole of my being; not a iota of me is other than God. So I lack no thing, what God is I am, I am peace I am Love I am joy.
The illness that I believe to have could only appear in ignorance of my Only Self so I understand now that there is nothing to do about it. If I did try to do anything about it, it would speak of acknowledging it as reality. I neither ignore it nor acknowledge it. I only acknowledge God here now.
I am walking in complete joyous peace and revelations are still pouring. I find it tricky to explain the revelation in words which are, so I hope it makes sense.
I will keep in touch.

THREE POSTS FROM THE ARCHIVES
Ya Ain’t Seen Nothing Yet
Allen, I read your last post Why Die? and I mostly agree with you, but what about people who are ready to move on because they’ve seen and done it all?
What To Do When You’ve Done It All: Not This
As soon as I read this question I thought about a guy I met many years ago. Death of a loved one left him with more money than he knew what to do with. He started living large: expensive clothes, exotic trips, etc. One day, as it was told to me, he called a close friend and told him, “I’ve seen and done it all. I’m ready to see what the next life offers.” He hung up, pulled the trigger, and shot himself in the head.
GOD IS INFINITE – WITHOUT LIMITS OF ANY KIND. AN INFINITE GOD CAN ONLY “EXPRESS” ITSELF INFINITELY. THIS ONE INFINITE PRESENCE IS INEXHAUSTIBLE.
Think about what you just read, and you must agree that no one could ever see or do it all. For that to happen God would have to be finite.
These Words Are Packed With Meaning
“I am come that they might have life and that they may have it more abundantly.” These are the words Christ Jesus spoke to the living – to people who thought they already had life. Some who heard these words may have thought, “Not only do I have life, but, I’ve seen and done it all.” Yet Christ spoke those words, and they were packed with meaning.
I’ve met so many people who have made millions of dollars. They live in palatial homes and drive pricy cars. They travel frequently to foreign countries and stay in costly hotels. Moreover, they enjoy loving relationships with friends and family. All this they do while in the pink of health. These are the very same people who sometimes think, “I’ve seen and done it all.” But have they?
Have You Seen Everything In Your Living Room?
The scenario depicted in the next paragraph has been the experience of many. It reminds me of a passage from Lao-tzu: Without going outside, you may know the whole world. Living in the same room, without ever going outside, you can see and experience more than you ever thought possible.
Imagine this. You’re sitting in the same chair that you always sit in to read and meditate. This time it’s different. Without warning, the room lights up. The furniture is still there; so are the plants and bric-a-brac. But now it’s all Light.
What just happened? After decades of sitting in that room, you finally saw the room as it is – Spiritual Substance. Just when you were ready to throw in the towel because you’ve seen and done it all, you realize that you haven’t seen anything yet.
Now you have a renewed interest in living. Why? Because you realize how little of the world you’ve ever actually seen.
Seeing It Or Seeing It As It Really Is
Perhaps you’ve read the books or heard the CDs of Marie Watts. In them, she shares her first experience of seeing the Grand Canyon in Illumination. It looked nothing like the canyon she’d seen so many times before. So many visits to the Grand Canyon and yet in only one visit did she actually see the Grand Canyon. [In subsequent visits she always saw the real canyon.]
Another time Ms. Watts tells of seeing a fruit tree in Illumination. By time-based material standard, it was out of season and fruitless. In Illumination (actual seeing), she saw the fruit, roots and all. She shares other experiences corroborating the fact there is a life more abundant to experience and enjoy.
There Simply Is No Excuse
The Infinity of God makes it impossible for any person living the so-called typical human lifespan to see and experience one percent of this universe. Ennui is no excuse for dying.
You Are Wanted And Needed
Your Participation Is Requested
I can’t remember the last time Absolutely Yours sent out an All-Hands-On-Deck post, urgent posts asking you to join our prayer-response to a seeming emergency. These apparent times dictate the need for one. Yes, this pandemic and its devastating consequences seem real, but God is still All.
Reader, you know God is All. But let’s take that knowledge to its ultimate conclusion – knowing God’s Allness so clearly that It shows forth as the only Evidence.
The Contemplation
For the month of July, join me as we contemplate the Fact (Absolute Truth) that GOD, PERFECTION, IS THE ONLY PRESENCE, POWER, IDENTITY, ACTIVITY, AND EVIDENCE – EQUALLY PRESENT AND EVERYWHERE PRESENT. THE ENTIRE UNIVERSE IS THE ONE INFINITE I AM. THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN IS HERE, NOW.
Thanks For Joining In
This is not a fix-it formula. You don’t have to use these exact words, but please keep to the idea behind the words. Remember, you are not trying to make these statements become true. Rather, you are acknowledging these statements are already true – already the current state of affairs. Thank you for joining me. If you want to know more about the value of group prayer, read Is Group Prayer Really Effective?
There will be no posts for the month of July. I look forward to being with you again in August.
Coronavirus Questions (Just Two)
This post addresses two of the questions that have come up regarding the coronavirus. Each answer rests upon the foundation of God’s absolute Allness.
Allen, are you wearing a respiratory mask, and do you think we should?
No, I’m not wearing a mask. When I leave home, I leave knowing that I move, live and have my being in, and as, Omnipresent Love and Perfection.
It seems a lifetime ago when I read this passage by Joel Goldsmith, but I remember it like it was an hour ago.
“We will never be satisfied until we have come into the full consciousness of God as our health, which means that even if they throw atomic bombs at us, they cannot affect our health, our body, our life, our being.”
Reader, did you ever experience a seeming threat to your health before this pandemic? A cold? A headache? Heart problems? Diabetes?
The appearance of a threat to health will continue until “we have come into the full consciousness of God as our health.” Then, we will never entertain the idea that anything can be a threat to our health and well-being.
As far as what you should do, ask yourself, “Do I believe that God is All?” and act accordingly.
When Will It End?
People all over the world are asking, “When will this end?” Folk, weary of concocting little projects to whittle the time away, are craving a return to normalcy.
In response to this question, a well-respected Christian Science practitioner wrote these words: “If you stopped being curious about how this epidemic was going to end, it would end tomorrow. The absence of curiosity in this regard would mean that you were putting your trust in God. The presence of curiosity just demonstrates a lack of trust.”
His response, though timely, doesn’t go deep enough. The question to ask is not When will this end, but rather, In the Allness of God, did it ever begin?
