PAULO: I will say that it isn't [[necessary]] that you be content, but it is necessary that you [[accept]]. In fact, if you can accept what is, without [[feeling]] content about it, you will see where the [[growth]] [[potential]] lies, and you will have innately the [[impetus]] to do something about it, but if you're comfortable, where's the point? I'm not saying [[comfort]] isn't a natural part of sonship, or even of [[creature]] life, but you don't need comfort. You need [[acceptance]]. Acceptance isn't always comfortable, but this is where there is [[growth]], even in [[conflict]]. I'm out of my league in [[psychology]]. I'll leave that to first phasers.

MICHAEL: This is your [[Master Son|sovereign]] and your friend. Can you [[imagine]] that? Having a sovereign as a friend? If you would but spend some time with this [[truth]] you would have many hours of [[contentment]]. My [[mandate]] for you to be perfect is not meant as a [[burden]]. It has become burdensome become you have to deal with densities and [[complexities]] of the [[material world]]. And you have done well to be able to see beyond this gross part of your [[reality]] and this indeed is the [[purpose]] of this your first experience as a [[personality]], to have the ability to choose your [[path]], your fate.

MICHAEL: This is your [[Master Son|sovereign]] and your friend. Can you [[imagine]] that? Having a sovereign as a friend? If you would but spend some time with this [[truth]] you would have many hours of [[contentment]]. My [[mandate]] for you to be perfect is not meant as a [[burden]]. It has become burdensome because you have to deal with densities and [[complexities]] of the [[material world]]. And you have done well to be able to see beyond this gross part of your [[reality]] and this indeed is the [[purpose]] of this your first experience as a [[personality]], to have the ability to choose your [[path]], your fate.

It is our [[intention]] that you take this [[responsibility]], this gift, with a true and light heart and to keep in [[mind]] the eternal [[destiny]] which you have. It seems at times so very, very far from you, but in reality it is also very close to you. As soon as you [[recognize]] your [[companion]] of divine origin, this is my intention that you have some relief, some [[hope]], some certitude about your [[existence]] here, and I'm sure all of you can certainly say with great certainty, that this is true, for where would you be without this [[realization]]. There are many who do not have this [[life]]. There are many who flounder in [[darkness]]. There are many who have no [[hope]]. So where do your [[heroic]] acts lie? Where can you activate that part of yourself that reaches beyond the gross, temporary solutions to [[modern]] [[problems]].
