A couple of days ago I read the daily quote from Abraham-Hicks and it got stuck in my head for the days that followed. It was the following quote:

As you diminish contrast, you diminish your ability to decide, and as you diminish your ability to decide, you diminish your ability to focus, and as you diminish your ability to focus, you do away with your reason for existing.

And just now it hit me. It was the Abraham way of saying Cogito ergo sum, or I think, therefor I am, or even better Je pense, donc je suis. It is written in the philosophical and mathematical treatise Discourse on the Method (full French title: Discours de la méthode pour bien conduire sa raison, et chercher la vérité dans les sciences) published by René Descartes in 1637. He uses the Latin “Cogito ergo sum” in the later Principles of Philosophy (1644), Part 1, article 7: Ac proinde hæc cognitio, ego cogito, ergo sum, est omnium prima & certissima, quæ cuilibet ordine philosophanti occurrat. (source: Wikipedia)

Enough with the history lessons. The quote of Abraham is the long version of I think, therefor I am. Contrast is the driving force of this ever expanding Universe. Whenever you experience contrast, you think about what you do want, and Source Energy immediately becomes the expanded version of you. Now your work is to align and let is manifest. But what if you decide that you no longer want contrast, and somehow you achieve it. You would be in a status quo where there is no reason to make decisions as nothing changes. You would loose focus on this time-space reality and there would be no reason for you to exist.

It is an interesting concept that contrast is the reason for our existence in this physical world. But this is exactly why I am able to appreciate the contrast I experience in my everyday life. It makes me desire and think about what I really want, which leads me to focus on what I really want and become that expanded being I innately want to be. And why? Because it makes me feel good and happy. And that is all what it is about.
