There is nothing enlightening about shrinking so that other people won't feel unsure around you. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It is not just in some of us; it is in everyone.  As we let our own Light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.   ..Marianne Williamson

Every Warrior of the Light has failed in his spiritual duties.
Every Warrior of the Light has said 'yes' when he wanted to say 'no.'
Every Warrior of the Light has hurt someone he loved.
That is why he is a Warrior of the Light,

Because he has been through all this and yet has

Never lost hope of being better than he is.…..Paulo Coelho

When your consciousness is ripe for the object of your heart's desire, it will come naturally. It will not require a miracle or quantum leap. It will be in the flow as your logical next step. And no one will be able to take it from you.   …

6:50am sunrise from Mar Vista in LA

Seems like just a century ago we knew everything 500 years ago we were killing people who didn’t know what we knew - that the Earth was the center of the Universe.  So maybe I need to forgive what I do not know today.  I mean really.  Yes there is reality - we just can’t possibly know what it is.  Such a sigh of relief flows from that thought.  We don’t know.  We just don’t know.  All we can do is trust - in God - in our Creator.  THE Creator of the whole thing. Perhaps our greatest gift is wonder. 

The way of the heart is the way of courage.  It is to live in insecurity, to live in love and trust, to move into the unknown by leaving the past and allowing the future.   …Osho

Many of us will be surprised at the last judgment. We will say, “But Lord, when did we see you naked, or imprisoned…” And He will answer, “You taught me the multiplication tables; you made my website work; you played that beautiful Bach prelude when I was in despair; you took me to lunch; you told me to rise and fall with the tide and all would be well.     … John Anderson, Ph.D
