It's all about our choices in the moment!

Wow, Will, your observation on different perceptions of the same input are spot on! In my classes I constantly discuss how different people will have differing experiences, and nobody is right or wrong—they're just all true. This belief, I believe, fosters a higher level of interpersonal acceptance, which is healthy for everyone.

Thank you for this insight!!

Hi Uncle Will:

You like most of my sleeping friends believe there is a world – 1 world that we all live in. In 1996 Michael Talbot wrote a book called the Holographic Universe. Michael interviewed some of the greatest scientific minds in the world that prove we live in a giant hologram of our own making. In lesson 132 of A Course in Miracles Jesus comes right out and says: “there is no world” several times. Throughout the Course Jesus uses the phrase “Projection makes Perception” meaning we project the world we see and then see it through our own Perception.

In his book Illusions Richard Bach says basically the same thing: “Every person, all the events of your life are there because you have drawn them there. What you choose to do with them is up to you.
