Intelligent Design is not creationism

Here's more old school for your feedback loop mechanism:
You are perfectly free at all times.
Everything that is experienced has been by your choice and at no time has there been any other cause.
You are perfectly free at all times.
Everything that is experienced has been by your choice and at no time has there been any other cause.

Jesus. Jesus. Jesus.
It seems simple. And yet, what soul has not known resistance to this idea? If you bake a cake and it turns out well, you will say, "I did that." But if you bake a cake and it turns out very bad, you think, "It must have been the flour. It must have been the temperature of the oven. It must have been ZZZZzzzz. Surely there was something that caused this creation to not be what I would truly desire."
It takes great courage and great faith to look upon all of your creations - your thoughts, your feelings, your manifestations - with love, and with the innocence of a child. Because all events in space and time - everything you experience - are perfectly neutral, there is, in reality, never failure.
There is a voice that leads you to believe your creations determine your worthiness. It teaches to judge, pick, and select what you will be responsible for. This creates conflict and illusions of separation. The more you move into that consciousness, the harder it seems to ever hope for a chance of transcending the sense of separation, conflict and lack of peace. When taken to its extreme, it fills your hospitals full of those in deep depression, paranoia, and the feeling within the being, within the human mind, of feeling alienated and alone. The voice tells you that if what you create is not up to snuff, it means that you, in the core of your beingness, are some kind of failure.
For how many of you have not known the feeling of resting your head upon the pillow at night and not being able to sleep because it is just not going the way you expected? The reason you cannot sleep is because you are in judgment of your creation.
But I say unto you, in reality, failure is not even remotely possible. Why? If you plant a garden and the seed does not turn into a beautiful flower, but withers and dies, that experience is a creation and you have done it...and it is neutral.
So here is the catch: You can only seem to fail when you believe that it is not acceptable to receive and own and embrace your creation with love and with innocence. Instead you can choose to look upon it, to experience it, and to recognize your perfect safety in doing so. For it is from there, that you can decide whether to continue in that form of creation or whether to think differently and to approach things differently.
