Unfolding Consciousness

From my experience, all that we experience is the beginning dance steps in the unfolding of a higher degree of consciousness. The Guides I encounter give me a very human-like shrug about why things unfold the way they do and comment that the collective consciousness of all material expressions gets what is needed to move on into the Light. The Pattern is just that — a pattern available to each of us to guide us to a more complete expression of consciousness.
