When you borrow a thing, you believe it belongs to the other, and you wish to have use of it. Do you know that you really do not own anything? And this is the source of many challenges. There is only One Mind experiencing Itself. Therefore, all are creations of the Mind. Much growth occurs from the words “my” and “mine,” for as your so-called possessions break or go from your life, you experience pain. What if you were to think as the lyrics in the song, “Nothing I have is truly mine.”? We believe you would find this most freeing.
Of course you can be practical. We know you are human and we do not wish for you to begin giving everything away or allowing strangers to sleep in “your” house. We are simply suggesting you examine the grip you have on “my” and “mine” – even extending this to the people in your life—and see where you might loosen that grip for a bit of freedom.
