Heavenletters™, bringing
Earth closer to Heaven. This Heavenletter does not apply to everyone. Nor does it apply only to
others and not to you. It is for some. Perhaps many. Now that you are grown up, no longer make a fuss when you don’t
get your own way. Your own way is not due you across the board. It is right and natural for a baby to kick and scream,
but not you. Nor do you walk away in a huff. You may think you have to defend your rights, and so you may offer ultimatums.
This does not make you big, for you are not thinking big. You are thinking small. If you have to be catered to, you are thinking
small. I have to suggest to those of you who are My dramatic children, if you must have drama and make ordinary life
huge, then go on the stage! You will have a good career there. You can stomp your foot. You can kick up a storm. You can put
everyone else in their place, that is, the place you assign to them. You may feel you are ruling the world. If you feel
this way, you are not ruling the world. You are not even ruling yourself. Whatever the debate is about, it was never about
you. Your honor is not at stake. Your pride is at stake. Ego is at stake. You want to win. You will even bully in order
to win. No one wins a prize for being rude or unkind. Certainly, there is not a contest going on as to who has the greatest
arrogance. Know this: You are already important to the world. You are affecting the world right now. Of course, right
now you may be limiting the world. It is for you to expand the world. Shine your light and hold your fire. Sometime
and soon, you will give up your arms also known as ego. It is time for you to create peace and stop trying to be the King
of the Mountain or the Mightiest of All. When you create a fuss, you are telling the world that your ego is more important
than your good manners. I suggest it is better for you be a lady or a gentleman. You can be gracious. See what it feels like
to be gracious. Maybe what you have wanted is to rule the stage and to thrive on it. You may think I speak bluntly
to you in defense of those you want to cast aside. I speak bluntly to you for your sake. To be a spitfire is not admirable.
And it is costly. It is costly to everyone, yet, most particularly, it is costly to you. You are giving up Good Will and withdrawing
it from people who may love you. If you saw what you were doing, you would not do it. Because you decide you are undermined,
you may want to undermine others. You have perhaps been seeing yourself as a victim, as a mistreated abused victim. You may
well swell up in order to put down others. From your perspective, no one has the right to say no to you, yet no one
is saying no to you, beloveds. They are objecting to an idea, while you demand in no uncertain terms that you be sovereign
lord or lady of ideas. Do you really think you are adding to your medals? Beloved, you are tossing aside your good heart.
I know you have a good heart. Where have you put it? Now think about justice and mercy that is yours to give and not
so much yours to grasp from others. Honor yourself. Oregon,
