There is a magnificent optimism at the heart of life.
Optimism in Life, a Seth Session
All elements of life are optimistic.
The fetus, for example, is remarkably optimistic, carrying within itself the miniature pattern for an entire human adult, taking it for granted that conditions will be favorable enough so that the entire pattern of normal life will be fulfilled despite any impediments or adverse conditions.
This expectation to grow and flourish is addressed within each atom, cell, and organ. And all of life’s parts contain this optimistic expectation and are blessed with the promise that their abilities will grow to maturity.
Children spontaneously take it for granted that their acts will result in the most favorable circumstances and that any given situation will have a favorable end result. These attitudes pervade in the animal kingdom also. They are embedded in the life of insects and in fish and fowl. They are the directions that provide life with purpose, direction, and impetus. No organism automatically expects to find starvation or disappointment or detrimental conditions – yet even when such circumstances are encountered, they in no way affect the magnificent optimism that is at the heart of life.
