If we will only give everything we have to whatever we may be doing at the moment then, when that relationship reaches its natural end, we will always find we have been given more than we had at the start. It is Law: to be filled anew, we must fully empty ourselves of ourselves time and time again.
Whatever it is that we wish to let go of must be something from which we wish to be free. This may be unpleasant or troubling relationships, a problem-filled past or fearful future, any form of addiction, recent painful events -- or any of those disturbing thoughts and feelings about these same troubling things that we no longer want in our lives. The truth is that troubles like these come wi...
There is only one path that leads to a relationship with what is holy, and therefore to a Life (that is) already complete...
Have you ever longed to explore the depths of your True Self -- to touch the Eternal? This is your chance to learn the Way. The ability to do, to act in the Now and not fall into fear, doubt, or other self-limiting states is one and the same as the power to live in the perfectly present moment. What unseen forces are working within us to keep us from realizing a relationship with our own...
You'll never climb out of the hole you find yourself in. Real Life has no holes to fall into. Every hole is a self-produced hole. Your mind actually builds the hole, then looks at it and says, "How did I get in here?" This means that if you find yourself in a hole and then struggle to climb out, the only thing you'll succeed at doing is digging the hole deeper. Thinking about the hole you'...

Until we can see that we care more for what "will be" -- even "what was" -- than we do for being in relationship with "what is" -- our heart and mind are the possessions of passing time, which means that so is the false sense of self that appears out of it... only to disappear back into it time and time again.
How else can the Divine reveal where we have deceived ourselves about its Incorruptible Nature and our relationship with it other than by showing us -- in some unmistakable fashion -- the parts of ourselves that imagine themselves as full of Light when -- in truth -- they are but fleeting shadows seeking a moment's glory before the sun rises to reveal them as such.
Here is the real reason why so very few ever realize a conscious relationship with the Divine: true spiritual union is consummated only through a growing awareness of one's inner poverty; in acknowledging its actual estate, one's soul gradually matures into an ever-deepening humility that -- since "the beginning" was -- and is -- created to culminate in an act of Love.
If we will only dare give everything we are to whatever we may be doing at the moment then, when that relationship reaches its natural end, we will always find we have been given more than we had at the start. It is Law: to be filled anew, we must be willing to empty ourselves of ourselves time and time again.
Tension is a part of creation itself; its boundless energy is a feature of every relationship in all worlds. The unknowing masses resist its manifestation, and wear themselves down trying, in vain, to escape it. But the Wise know how to use it... to remain aware of their part in a Divine awakening that is the fulfillment of Life.
Any friendship based on a relationship that is "already understood" is less a friendship than it is an unstated agreement that things should change between those involved only when and if mutually agreed upon. But real friendship is such contract; it's a mutual consent between the parties involved to share in love's never ending encouragement to outgrow whatever limits the growth of.
