Appreciation of Those We Despise

Higg(in)s: Finding something to like about those you like is easy. It is easy because when you like someone you magnetically draw from them the best they have to offer. The same works the other way around, when you distrust someone you draw more from them to distrust. Practice finding something to appreciate about yourself, your loved ones, and when you are able, practice finding something to appreciate about those whom you despise.

Why Is it Important to Appreciate Those We Find Difficult?

Higg(in)s: Appreciation is a powerful tool in your toolkit. When you appreciate those whom you dislike and distrust the emotional separation between you becomes smaller, thereby creating greater likelihood that eventually a peaceful resolution will be achieved.

Playing the Appreciation Game

Higg(in)s: Appreciation of others is a spectacularly effective way to promote cooperation between yourself and others. Today, try to find something genuine to appreciate about someone whom you find trying and difficult.

A Peaceful Resolution in Advance

Higg(in)s: Appreciating oneself is one of the most important things anyone can ever do, but especially during this escalating global discomfort. The earth realm is fractal meaning every occurrence is a metaphorical repeat of some other occurrence. If you treat yourself well others will be drawn to do the same. This also applies to appreciating others. Find something to appreciate about someone else today (after you have adequately appreciated yourself). These practices are the application of peaceful resolutions, excepting that with appreciation of self and others, one is applying the peaceful resolution in advance of needing one.

Think Gently Well of Yourself

Higg(in)s: Are you finding things to like about yourself? There are many things good about you. Find one to focus on until you feel uplifted in your heart. This practice is important because when you feel good about yourself others are inspired to treat you better.

We notice that you all spend a significant amount of time railing about how others need to treat you better. You need to treat you better. Then others will fall into line in the natural order of things, with no other work on your part than the effort needed to think gently well of yourself.

Appreciate Breathing

Higg(in)s: Things are heating up, yes? Are you enjoying the conflict and opportunity for growth? Or are you afraid, sickened by the lack of value for life?

A short tutorial:

  1. Spend a few minutes each day breathing out, and then in again. Appreciate how lovely the feeling is as your lungs inflate, deflate, inflate, deflate.
  2. While you are breathing find the peace in your soul. Let peace flood through you. When you get up to move practice taking that wonderful, calm feeling with you.
  3. Look ahead at your future. What would you like to do later today? And tomorrow? Next week? Next year? Twenty years from now?

In short, appreciate the most basic aspect of good health: breathing. Find peace inside yourself regardless of what is happening outside yourself. Make plans. You need to plan to have a future to have a future.

Practice, practice, practice.

Is Being Peace Too Simple an Answer?

Question: Not intending to argue with you, Higg(in)s, but when people are being beheaded it seems impossible that my finding a peaceful resolution to my small issues will stop someone who is planning to behead another.

Higg(in)s: You are right, Friend, it won’t. But you won’t be the person doing the beheading nor will you be beheaded. If you will practice this feeling of peace enough, you will repel negativity from your home, your immediate neighborhood, any place that you are. You will be safe.

Question: What difference does it make if I am safe while millions are not?

Higg(in)s: Certainly, it makes a difference to you?

Question: Of course, I’d rather be safe. Nevertheless, I would like to help resolve the conflicts underway in Ukraine and Israel. How does my safety help Israel?

Higg(in)s: What happens when you drop a stone into water?

Questioner: First there is a splash of water when the stone hits it. The stone sinks. I suppose you are referring to the waves of water that move away from the impact site in concentric circles?

Higg(in)s: Correct. When you are at peace in your heart, concentric waves of peace emanate from you in multi-directional waves. It is a signal of sorts, and it is magnetic. Literally, when you emanate a signal of peace you are a magnet attracting peaceful responses. When enough people decide, as you have, that it is better to be peace and to find peaceful solutions than it is to blame others for your discomfort, solving problems by killing those who do not agree with you, then the pervading energy will be one of cooperation and those who now hold arms will simply lay them down. They will suddenly remember they had something better to do and they will go do it.

Questioner: Again, Higg(in)s, I don’t mean to argue with you. But it could take forever to do this. Thousands are dying now.

Higg(in)s: What does it mean to go viral?

Questioner: It means to become very popular very quickly. It refers to the internet.

Higg(in)s: Will this conversation be published on the internet?

Questioner: Yes.

Higg(in)s: Then allow this to go viral. Within 24 hours from the moment of publication of this conversation the war in Israel and the war in Ukraine could stop using this technique of being peace. That is how fast this technique works. It works almost instantly for the person using it. You just need a large number of people to start practicing peace in the literal space they occupy; to find peaceful resolutions to the smaller issues that arise in a person’s day; to be consistent and persistent about harboring thoughts of peace. It will help, of course, if those people are on or near the front lines of the conflict, but it is not necessary. Those concentric waves of peace will be matched by other peaceful waves and repel waves that do not match it. If there are people in the space being swept over by your waves of peace those people must match your waves of peace with waves of peace of their own, or they must move away where the waves of peace do not reach them.

Mankind has the power to prevent destruction. The problem is that the answer seems too simple. The truth is that peace and appreciation, these two, are the solution to whatever ails you.

Can You Say More About the Difference One Person’s Appreciation Can Make?

Question: Can you say more about the difference one person’s appreciation can make?

Higg(in)s: Humanity exists in a web. Much the way a spider waits on its web until the web begins to move signaling the arrival of a fly, humanity is connected via this web. When one person expresses appreciation, every other person is ‘notified’. EVERYTHING exists within this web. The web is God, that primary source of life. People are similar to a pattern woven into cross stitch cloth. God is the Aida cloth and people, trees, computers, the stuff of life are the pattern.

When the ‘appreciation strand’ of the web is triggered, a return flow of appreciation initiates. One person triggering the ‘appreciation strand’ will emit and receive the physical representation of appreciation. The more often this is done the more overt is the return expression. One person emitting appreciation will find themselves living a safe and appealing existence without regard to what happens in the lives of others.

The spider in the web image evokes in the entity the image of the fly being spun by the spider to be eaten later. While that is true in the spider analogy, what we would have you gather from this analogy is the fly, who is the stuff of life for the spider, triggers a vibration in the web the spider knows is its source of life. Appreciation is your source of life.

Peaceful Resolution

Question: How would we apply being peace to the conflict in Israel?

Higg(in)s: Let’s address this with a metaphor. Let’s pretend that you are in a collision with your car. It is a small one. No one is injured. Still, you must stop and exchange information and then deal with the insurance company and the car repair shop. It is inconvenient and expensive for both parties. If, prior to leaving home that morning, you had set your intent on safety, on financial ease, on timely arrival to your destinations, and on having pleasant experiences accompanying you through the day, this small but inconvenient interaction could not have occurred. (Assuming that you were able to carry that energetic feel with you.)

In this metaphor, you have a mess to clean up. Messes take time and you handle them how you will. The current situation in Israel can be likened to this collision. Handle it in the best way you know how. Simultaneously, begin setting your intention on peace and peaceful resolution. Learn to handle your own day in peace, applying peaceful resolutions to your own issues. Before you can adequately resolve such a large conflict, you must be able to solve smaller scale conflicts in your own home, in your own life. As you do so, your life will smooth out. As many of you practice applying peaceful resolutions, conflicts everywhere will begin to soften and slip away. People involved in this massive conflict will lose interest and be inspired to different action, action that is harmless at first, and eventually positively constructive.

When speaking of Israel (or Ukraine) everyone hopes for an immediate and lasting cease fire. However, we know that a more lasting and fruitful result would come from the technique described above. It is a simple solution. It is effective. It costs nothing.
