Well, we all live within this changing record of our collective lives - The Alashic Record, this is a record of significance as it grows and adapts with us from life time to life time - many of us are judgemental and have strong opinions and views. I think that by seeing ourselves in others we can make our record one that is directed toward personal growth, insight, the ability to be tolerant and loving, forgiving and compassionate. Hopefully we can modify our records by noticing our connection to each other and our shared humanity - letting us become more enlightened people.
