Day 23 - Rewrite the Rules to Be Best for All

There are rules to games that we play and sometimes they make sense, other times they do not. To understand what is actually best, look at the larger context of what is best for all Life, then we can look at who we are within the game, and either participate in the game in honesty and integrity, or we can propose new solutions for the games. When we can see that the rules of the game are solid and supportive of Life and there is a purpose of the game, then we can participate in equality and oneness of realizing we are equal and we agree to play by the rules. Or perhaps we realize that the rules are not best and therefore we can propose a newer better version of the game that is actually best, meaning it is supportive of Life.

I remember back in school the first time I ever cheated on anything was playing the game Heads up 7 Up.

It was a game where we would put our heads on our desk and kids came around and touched the thumb on our hands, I figured out I could look down and see the shoes of whoever touched my thumb.

I would then be able to identify the person who touched my thumb and I would thus “win” and be able to “be up”, and one of the pickers in the game, because I was not randomly guessing who ‘picked me’ I just saw their shoes and used that to choose

Once I accepted and allowed myself to cheat, even if it was honestly an accident that I noticed the shoe once, I kept doing it even though I felt guilty, but it felt good to win, so I accepted and allowed myself to cheat, win, and continue in my cheating, creating a nasty cycle and character of being a cheater. Until Here no further.

I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to look down during the game and look at the shoes of the person, which gave me an unfair advantage in who I could pick, and thus win the game.

I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to keep the secret to myself of the realization that one could look at the shoe and cheat, in this I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to not see/realize/understand that I could have spoken up which would then have equalized the playing field among all and been a new chance for us to set new updated agreements and rules to the game which are more robust to ensure fairness to all playing by the same rules I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to compromise my integrity by cheating in the game, failing to understand the consequences of me cheating and not immediately correcting the behavior by understanding what I did, acknowledging the breaking of the agreement, taking responsibility and then taking the necessary Self-Corrective Application to re-establish the agreement between myself and the others playing the game.

I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to justify my cheating as being smart and knowing how to manipulate the rules of the game, therefore excusing myself and placing the blame on others, instead of being honest within myself and acknowledging I was cheating, I was participating unfairly in the game, and in this I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to have refused to see that it is best to examine my starting point within playing the game and looking at the consequences of cheating or not cheating within the greater context of Life and who I am within playing the game and being alive

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that because I was young, that it was acceptable for me to not live within the principles of integrity and honesty and self-trust and doing what is best for all

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to participate in the pattern of spite, by me cheating in the game and not caring about the consequences of my cheating in the degradation of my character and the degradation of my relationship with others, as when I cheat, I am accepting and allowing that cheating to spread as an acceptance and allowance into every facet of Life, until Here no further

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to have failed to examine what is actually best in my participation with established systems, like schooling and the game heads up 7 up played in the classroom, in this I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to have failed to see/realize/understand that the purpose of me being in school and playing these games was to test my character, to train my ability to problem solve, and to test myself to prove to myself  that I can become equal to and one with a system, while remaining within principle and doing what is best and directing myself and the system itself to what is best for all Life always and in all ways

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to believe that I am superior to the world-systems and the games, failing to realize the necessity of equality and oneness within the system and the games to then purify the system and the games to what is actually best for all Life

I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to believe that I am superior to others because I figured out how to win at the game through cheating, failing to see our equality in and as Life, and failing to see my responsibility in speaking up and directing myself and everyone to investigate and establish the rules of the game that they are supportive of all Life and the starting point is actually Life, within this I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to have refused to see that Who I Am within and as the games, COULD have been Life, but I abdicated that responsibility until now as I re-write and re-right myself through Self-Forgiveness and Self-Corrective Application to stand equal to and one with Life and to direct all systems and everything on Earth to actually be supportive of Life and the expansion of Life within the Principles of Life

I forgive myself that I did not see that my participation within and as the cheating character is how I perpetuate the pattern of excuse, justification, blame and spitefulness, where I feel superior to other people who do not understand the rules of the game and how to manipulate them (cheat) and through this I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to not see, realize and understand that it is through my participation that this pattern of spitefulness and energy-authority will perpetuate as I am allowing myself to create and recreate this experience within and as myself, until Here no further

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to have failed to see, realize and understand that I am creative and I can speak up, propose new rules and vote for new rules and a new game, and to realize that I am able to lead others and that we are able to work together to establish better rules that are supportive of Life and doing what is actually best, within the system of the game and within the larger context of all of Life

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to have failed to see the gift within the cheating experience, that I had been blind to realizing that I have the ability to direct myself to not cheat, and also that I have a voice and I can speak up, expose the cheating as I had become equal to and one with it, and through this I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to have failed to take responsibility to work together with others to facilitate and propose solutions to recreate better rules within the game, or to establish a new game, that is actually supportive of all of Life that is participating in the game and beyond

I forgive myself that I did not see that my participation within and as the cheating character is how I perpetuated the pattern of guilt of seeing myself as inferior to others who I perceived were not cheating and just following the rules, where I feel inferior to others and through this I forgive myself that I had accepted and allowed myself to not see, realize and understand that it is through my participation in this pattern of the cheating character and the guilt of cheating that I will perpetuate the pattern as I am allowing myself to create and recreate this experience within and as myself, until Here no further

I forgive myself that I have accepted and allowed myself to have failed to see/realize/understand that guilt is a gift and that I am able to use guilt as a cross-reference to see/realize/understand where i am not being completely honest within myself to actually direct the overall situation to what is best, rather I had been accepting and allowing my limitations and the feelings associated with guilt instead of applying self-forgiveness, self-corrective application and then actually directing the entire situation within myself and all to what is actually best within Self-Honesty, Self-Trust, Self-Awareness and Self-Directive Principle

When and as I notice cheating in myself and in others, I stop and I breathe

I realize that cheating means the rules of the game are being manipulated, and this must be addressed

I realize that I am smart enough and wise enough to direct conversations to understand the rules of the game, why the cheating is happening, and what course correction must happen where all may be able to remain in integrity and not cheat, rather just play the game in fairness and in honesty

I realize that the gift in the cheating and the shame/guilt/blame that follows all serves as a gift as those feelings/emotions/thoughts/characters/mannerisms are all cross-reference points for me to see where I have abdicated responsibility, and for me to take on more responsibility and stand equal to and one with Life and direct everything and all things to what is best for all Life

I commit myself to establish rules of systems and games so that they support Life in all ways and all ways in the largest context of Life which is ALL of Life

I commit myself to self-honest self-reflection and investigation to complete and total Self-Perfection where I can stand in and as Life and direct everything to what is best for all Life

I commit myself to gift myself all the gifts within Self-Forgiveness and Self-Corrective Application and to Live as a Living Example for others of the gift that is Life that is realized through Self-Forgiveness and Self-Corrective Application

I commit myself to Self-Honesty, Self-Trust and Self-Responsibility to do what is best always and in all ways, now and forevermore
