It is my birthright. (I see that phrase used in different contexts. What happens if I take it as true?)

1. True?
   Yes. Feels true. People tell me it is true. I tell myself it is true.
2. Sure?
   No. It is just an opinion.
3. What happens when I believe that thought?
   • Well, it is my birthright so I want it! I go into a demand. I feel entitled to it.
   • If it doesn’t seem to happen, I wonder what is wrong with me. People tell me it is my birthright, but it doesn’t happen, so something must be wrong with me, or at the very least, I must be doing something wrong. Something is wrong somewhere.
   • If it happens, I worry about losing it. It would be a tragedy to lose something that is my birthright. It wouldn’t be right, but I also know it can happen. Everything tells me that everything is in flux, after all.
   • I see others who don’t seem to realize that it is their birthright, and who either don’t have it or have it and don’t seem to appreciate it, so I get upset. I want to tell them that they can have it, or that they should appreciate it. I experience a sense of separation to these people.
4. Who would I be without it?
   • Hm. More sense of space around it. I could still seek to find or develop it, but without the overlay of seeing it as a birthright. The demand would go out of it.
   • More sense of receptivity and clarity.
   • If someone says that something is my birthright, I would be more curious to see if it is here now, or rather - how it shows up here now. I wouldn’t see it as something in the future or past.
5. Turnarounds.
   • It is not my birthright.
     • That feels more true. If it is not here, according to my story about it, then it is obviously not my birthright. At least not right now.
     • Birthright or not is just a story, nothing inherent in the world.
