The Three Jobs of Human Beings

This subject fascinates me a great deal. What are we supposed to do while we are here on Earth? I mean, what are we really supposed to be in engaged in while playing the roles that we play. What is there beyond butcher, baker, or candlestick maker? Our relatively large brains with their hemispheric differentiation into “left” (predisposed to logical, linear thinking) and “right” (with its creative non-linear, thinking) enabled us to create a vast array or roles to play in the great extemporaneous play that is life.

Is there an overall umbrella or foundation (depending on one’s point of view) responsibility that we took on prior to popping into life that somehow got lost early in our development as more pressing issues (like survival) needed to be addressed first? I think so… Consequently, I have uncovered three “jobs” for my lifetime that define what I am really doing here on Earth. They are “my” jobs, and you are welcome to take on any one or all of them as there are lots of openings.

Job number one (learning self-love) was for me to discover that I am divine, that God dwells in me, and that my key to truly living a harmonious and fulfilled life is a matter of learning to unconditionally love myself. That involves healing whatever I need to heal that prevents me from loving myself. Once I did that, I found I was able to love God and everything in the Universe. Talk about a turnaround in living!

Job number two (manifesting) was learning how to manifest what I need in life to"Trinity" Tree - Mount Shasta, CA fully express my passion, my essence for this lifetime. In working job number one (self-love) I discovered that the essence of my life this time around is to inspire others to awaken to who they truly are and reconnect with God. Over time I also learned the mechanics of manifesting, and that becoming a powerfull manifester required me to first love myself so that fear was not the basis for manifesting. So job number two was enabled by job number one.

Job number three (supporting others) came about after I essentially accomplished jobs one and two in answer to the question, “What’s next?” From my perspective, what was logically next consisted of supporting others in taking on jobs one and two. That is why this commentary and this website exist. I realize that I am more proactive in job number three than are perhaps most other people. But it is not necessary to take on job three full-time; we still need butchers, bakers, and candlestick makers. In the Teachings page of this site, I write about how we are all teachers regardless of whether or not we are in front of classrooms. I recommend you to that commentary if you wish to explore how to support others a bit further.

---------------------------------

Those are the three jobs:
#1 – Unconditional self-love
#2 – Manifesting needs
#3 – Supporting others in jobs 1 and 2
I fully admit that they are my three jobs, and yet, I cannot help thinking that it would be a very different world if they were three jobs that we all took on.

What do you think?
