STOP THE MISTAKE
     If there are a million pieces of the jigsaw puzzle, that's not too many for truth to come in and straighten out. Think instead that all that is up to you is to want to know why the pounding puzzles are there and why you haven’t escaped them.
     It isn’t up to you to chase out the goblins. The knowledge that they are in there is your part; that is, honesty of your actual condition.
     You're not to fall into your usual sad self anymore. You don't need to feel embarrassed or awkward. Whatever happens to you, you're going to become a ruthless refuser. NO! I'm going to stop the mistake right here and now.
     Mistake: Because you've lost your spiritual birth certificate, you feel obligated to go along with, to yield to it “as if it is my duty to allow those emotions to make me feel bad. I don’t have to obey those emotions. NO! What is wrong with me that I want to feel bad?”

BADNESS IS POINTLESS
     I have a startling and delightful announcement for you. An announcement that will change, uplift and inspire everything from moment to moment in your day. That announcement is: Sin is unnecessary, badness is pointless. To be tricky and devious has no needful place in your life. Badness is as useless and pointless as wheels on a boat.
     Anxiety, which is badness; hostility, which is badness; worry, which is badness — simply do not form a requirement in your personal life. You can live without being bad, without inflicting hostility on yourself.
     Evil has no permanence. Sickness has nothing to back it up. It’s a vapor that projects itself into your mind, and because you are immature and confused, that vapor seems to form a bad evil face, countenance. And so you think that the vapor has eyes, nose, mouth and the rest of the face. And you call it evil because you don’t understand it.
     You yourself, out of your ignorance and your false belief in your false existence, have created a force, a misused energy. You have taken natural, right elements within yourself and distorted them for one reason. Simply because you don’t know any better. Now you can know better.
