(To Gert.) I did not mean that you could skip over the story line the first time, only that you did not need to re-read it. Now, you may all take your break.

(To Sue after stating she had a headache.) You are simply upset over the implications of the probable selves and that caused the headache. Tell yourself that you are doing well in the reality, that you are using your abilities, that you are helping your husband use his and that you have brought to birth an individual who will use his very well. You do not need to feel guilty of the creation of any probable selves. They come into reality with problems, but all of you come into reality with challenges that you have set ahead of time, in your terms. You have given them the gift of existence, they will learn how to use it and develop their own abilities in their own way, for you have also given them individuality which means they are not yourselves, but variations on yourselves. They have many facets of reality and fulfill them often.

He is doing very well, but in the case of children, in most but not all, they are able to handle their fears. In a strange manner they are not afraid of their fears. They accept their fears as they accept a chair, or a rock, or a face and then they deal with them. But they are not afraid of their fears in the same manner that you are. Remember, consciousness has its own protection, its own vitality, and trust in the vitality of your own consciousness and of your own way and that is the answer. For you have a vitality within you and you have only to call upon it and it comes to your aid. This applies to each of you. It is only when you fear you do not have this vitality that it betrays you, and then it does not betray you, but you betray it. You have all the energy, all the ability, all the power and all the strength you will need within you to face each and every situation and be the selves you want to be. You have only to know and understand this and you can bring up from yourselves energy such as you never dreamed.

You need not do so. Once you realize that your guilt has no basis then it can dissolve. It is only when you do not understand it that you become frightened and project it in such a manner. You are creating the guilt, and through understanding you can learn to dissolve it for it will simply vanish.
