Step 3 to Spiritual Awareness

All of us value self-reliance and freedom. Even children exercise their ability to make their own decisions and establish independence. And as adults we continue daily efforts for our freedom, strength and happiness.

Ultimately our efforts are to awaken to the reality of Eternal Existence as Spiritual Beings. Spiritual awareness can come to those of us that focus our energies in a clearcut, concentrated spiritual direction.

And there are some fundamental steps that builds the pyramid of our life to the peak of Spirit. All of these steps may start on the mental level, but they permeate all levels, physical, mental, emotional, spiritual.

First step

The first step is to pause and go silent. A daily exercise called Relaxation and Silence can help you pause and go silent in any moment of your daily life experiences.

Bring your mental focus within yourself, taking some deep, slow breathes and becoming calm and present in the moment. Relax the body, gradually let any circling of monkey chatter thinking go quiet. That’s when we can allow ourselves to become conscious of profound peace within.

Second Step

The second step is to become aware of the witness within without judgments and labels. In this step we deliberately choose to step into a higher conscious frequency. It’s simple.

Pause, become silent and conscious of the witness within. And be compassionate. Courageously face the challenge of the ego with all its obstinate thoughts and emotions with a compassionate Heart and Deep Love. Be willing to accept yourself and the moment with Understanding and Inspirational Harmony.

Negate any thought or emotion that does not serve the better good, throwing it in a mental trashcan. Then purposefully choose higher levels of consciousness like optimism, understanding, trust and love.

the 3rd step

The third step is to become aware of something greater than ourselves, of an unknown mysterious presence. And we can do this very easily when we allow it.

We all experience the Great Causeless Cause Itself within us as life. That Power outside of ourselves is known as Universal Life Energy. And it is the very foundation and essence of All ….. Matter, Mind, Emotion and Spirit.

Because of pride, impatience and conceit we willfully broke our conscious connection with the Source of All Power in our efforts to becomes self-sufficient. Yet, now is our opportunity to restore our lost connection with simple methods of contact.

The most simple is the physical Star Exercise in which you open your body, turning your left palm upward to attract the Universal Power outside of yourself with your own Life Center acting as a magnet.

That contact may feel like a tinglingly of a warm or cool energy, but if you are not conscious of feeling It, then just relax. You are automatically attuning yourself with the Cosmic Currents because of the Law of Attraction. And eventually the Truth of the contact will help harmonize doubt or fear.

When you are conscious of contact with the Absolute through Universal Life Energy physically, then you are becoming conscious of being One with the Absolute on higher planes, mental and Spiritual.

Another simple practice is the Mental Contact

In this Mental Contact you physically relax your body and once you feel harmony within, you open the mental door to assert your union with Universal Life with audible Declarations of Truth:

“I am One with Universal Life Energy, that is flowing through me Now. I feel It.”

And feeling that Power physically is evidence that You are One with the Absolute on the Spiritual, Soul level too because what is True on one level is True on another.

It’s just a matter of what we allow ourselves to become conscious of!

In these practices you are beginning to become conscious of your unity with the Great Principle, God because you are feeling the Truth of the Absolute physically ….. that You are One with the Eternal spiritually.

We may physically feel It as Universal Life Energy and/or as a mysterious unknown presence.

“You must remember that on the Mental Plane you are a law unto yourself. If you believe in a thing, that thing will become a reality to you. But if you doubt or fear, that doubt or fear also becomes a reality to you and prevents you from realizing the thing you want.”

DANCE ON WATER
Your reflection is rippled and distorted in the human mind,                                                     yet your Higher Self knows
You dance on water, You float on air!

You are a gentle soul that unfolds petal,                                                                                by 1,000 petals
so that your tender heart is disclosed.

You are a friend, then foe, then Friend exposed.

You are a jewel in the silence,
a Light like the sun.
You are ‘I am’ and part of ‘I AM ONE.’ PSLB
Allow change, especially within yourself

It is very obvious that things are always changing. It’s a Law of Nature…. Everything is vibration ….. always vibrating, moving, changing ….. even solid stone.

People who reminisce, adore nostalgia, and go over and over memories in their head live in the past. They create a habit of a clinging mind, trying to figure out things or keep things the way they were. Their circling in such monkey chatter can become a sort of misery.

A way out is going silent, relaxing the body and most of all letting the monkey chatter go quiet. In the Silence we gradually become more and more aware of being in the presence of something greater than ourself …… feeling that connection to a mysterious Power that is constantly vibrating ….. feeling calm and at peace.

This physical Power is the physical energy of Presence, the Life and Love of the Universe, called prana, chi, or Universal Life Energy. We can physically and mentally feel It. And It helps us emotionally free ourselves from self-imposed constrictions of memories inducing quilt, shame and resentment.

In the moment

Even when we are busy during our day we can at any moment pause, go silent, and become aware of the profound presence of Universal Life and Love. We can mentally focus and connect with It. And we will experience in our Hearts and Minds all the qualities of the Supreme …… Power, Wisdom, Sincerity, Love and Peace. We feel Joy and being fulfilled.

We become balanced in the center ….. aware of Life, Intelligence, being One with the Universal Principle and Love. We witness Beauty and appreciate it. We witness the wonder of Life and the inspiration of Wisdom.

And on the deeper level we are becoming aware of our connection to ALL and our Soul.

The spiritual seeker becomes a seeker of Truth.

The human mind is rippled with fears, guilts, doubts and denials. The witness within observes without labels and judgements, remaining centered in silence.

Be open to change, and avoid thoughts and behaviors that try to prevent it. Water and its different states is a symbol of mind. And just as water freezes, living in memories can keep us frozen too. But when we are willing to live in the moment and appreciate it we can dance on water, allowing change, and even celebrate it. That way we won’t miss opportunities for more understanding and allowing in our life.

Relaxation, Silence and purposefully connecting to the Infinite …… These are the first step to greater spiritual awareness.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“You realize gradually that the Success, or Good, in you life comes in direct proportion to your unification with Universal Forces and Laws, while the disharmonious results, such as failure, poverty, disease and trouble, are the inevitable consequences of your separation from or opposition to those Laws, either through ignorance, fear or self-will.”

When we consciously think well of others it helps heal ourselves and the world. Manifesting unconditional Love while we are at work, doing errands, at home or anywhere, we are living a conscious heart. Our Spiritual Heart is where our innate Wise Love is seated.

And manifesting those qualities of our Soul with Love leading us refines our character and lifts us on the mental and physical planes, helping us face any challenge before us. We free ourselves from the ego’s demands and can choose a path that benefits ourselves and everyone around us.

There will be a state of calm and harmony within us, which helps us clear our thinking to consciously choose to Be FourSquare expressing Enthusiasm, Intelligence, Sincerity and most of all Love. And these choices are in harmony with the qualities of Source and our very Soul. The effect, being in harmony with Source, will be of the most benefit.

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“Similarly, you must radiate from yourself the Magnetic Power of Love which will draw like response from those with whom you come in contact.”

How should we fight evil in the world?

When things get really though in world affairs we can become entangled with the negativity and it can drag us down. We’ll look for advantages to sooth ourselves, but we can get trapped and stuck in our negative conditioning. 

So what should we do to help ourselves and the world?

We’re tempted to do this …

We should not be blind to the evil in the world, rather we should be conscious and mindful of it without feeding it more negative emotions. War on evil only feeds evil.

Everyone has negative aspects of the egotistic personality that can surface. We can be tempted to exhibit behaviors that are immature, unhelpful and even worst ….. like becoming afraid, worried, depressed, aggressive and even violent. 

To Help Ourselves and Others …

We are tied into the problems of the world, but we must begin harmonization by relying on ourselves. 

That is to be conscious and aware of our own selves first! By being aware of our strengths …… our Inner Four Square qualities of Strength, Intelligence, Truth and Love and Compassion.

You can truly help yourself and help all humanity by fighting to be more compassionate and non-judgmental, without involvement of the ego’s opinions. We can be loving and generous in our attitudes without attachment to humanity’s emotional dramas.

Our spiritual Being …. what we become with focus on lovingness helps all humanity.

You are part of the emerging Universal Consciousness! We are becoming more and more conscious of the vastness of the universe and the beauty and wonder of it. And that is evidence of the evolution of humanity’s consciousness.

Reliance on the Source

You are on the path of enlightenment! Let us have faith that things will work out according the Law of Harmony.

In earthy reality, things work out according to the laws of: Cause and effect, Polarity, Rhythm and Gender. All things work out for the greater good!

We open ourselves to the protection of the Great Principle when we have faith and trust in the Source, in the Laws of the Universe.  Say and feel something like: “With the help of the Great Principle I have the power to meet the situation.”

Once you make a choice Source will help you accelerate in that direction! And no matter if your decision is based in subconscious conditioning, conscious reasoning, or superconscious inspiration, the Law of Evolution will ultimately accelerate your awareness and spiritual unfoldment.

All paths ultimately further your evolution,

even those that create a temporary downfall, which results in more challenging conditions for yourself and those around you. Unfortunately sometimes we have to hit bottom before we look up.

You live Your spiritual journey

We live in times of great spiritual opportunities ….. to unfold because we are becoming more aware of the negative temptations of the ego and of evil in the world. 

If you agonize or worry over your choices it means you are being influenced by conditioning from past experiences.

Consider the process of making decisions an opportunity to open yourself to the Universe and ask for help. Make the Mental Contact with Universal Life Energy which opens you to tremendous help.

Be reasonable and logical, but also listen to your intuition. It is the voice of your soul.

And, remember you also have the help of unknown individuals around the world and of those in higher realms. 

This is when we as observers can observe in a detached manner with clarity yet without harsh judgment.

Remember that some of us choose more challenging paths of spiritual unfoldment. Yet, everyone is a spiritual being and on their spiritual journey.

Let us take the opportunity …

to work on lifting ourselves up by manifesting qualities of our heart, our Spiritual Heart. Let us be Enthusiastic, Intelligent, True and have Goodwill for ourselves and others. And, we change the world!

You are on the cusp of evolution ….. pulling us into the future! Your cooperation  with Harmony accelerates your awareness and spiritual unfoldment, and indeed the world’s.

I have best hope for peace in your creative endeavors now and always!

“Others cannot do things for us. It is all so complicated, that in order to find a clear path out it, we should rely more and more on the Principle of the FourSquare. Try to unfold It in our own life, and in our relations to other people, and to the World.”

Your Reality is Shaped by Your Emotions: The Power of Emotion to Change Your Life, Part 1

Frustration

If you think your life sucks at times, then it does. What most people don’t realize is that it sucks because we make it that way!

Our ego loves what is familiar and will keep coming back to the same emotions, even if they feel bad! Your emotions amply your thoughts, radiating out as your personality, body, and surrounding life conditions – in other words your reality. 

You can lose a sense of your True Self and soul because of identification with illusionary feelings. The ego tries to overcome the confusion and emotional pain, by doing a lot of thinking about it, always trying to solve a problem it never can. 

In this series we will discuss why your  emotions shape your life, how to identify and benefit even by negative emotions, and how to center your emotional power for positive change.

Emotions  manifest physically

It’s usually obvious when someone is angry. You may not actually see steam come out of their ears but: the rational part of the brain shuts down, the body tenses (tightening in the shoulders and chest), stress related hormones are released (such as adrenaline and cortisol), and the face gets red when the cardiovascular responses kick in.

Emotions release hormones related to the limbic system and chemicals in the brain and body …… and we can become addicted to these even if if they feel bad to us! We may not always be acutely aware of the emotions and physiological release of chemicals in our bodies, yet eventually we get a feeling. Our feelings, emotions, and attitudes are so tied together that we usually use these terms interchangeably.

Bodily Effects of Your Emotions

Your emotions can manifest in your life in precarious ways.  People with an irritable disposition are 3 times more likely to have a heart attack than people who are less prone to temper tantrums. Plus, over time such high stress situations like anger can hamper the immune system, resulting in any number of illnesses.

Positive emotions like delight and gratitude also manifest in the body, reversing the effects of negative emotions, harmonizing and healing it. When you experience joy and love: the body relaxes, happiness chemicals are released (such as dopamine, oxytocin or endorphins) and sent to your heart.

Delight

Of course, matters of the heart are involved! We attract what we feel through our heart, the seat of Love and Magnetic Center of Attraction.

In those people who feel deep, abiding love there is a lower risk of cardiovascular disease, greater functioning of the immune system, and calmer, clearer thinking.

You Attract What You Feel – The Law of Attraction

Circling in negative thoughts about your feelings amplify them! You attract the same energy that you think about and feel because of the Law of Attraction (Love). You get what you put out there in the Universe.

So if you have a grumpy disposition then you attract more negative, low-frequency conditions, even if that is not what you desire.

The Law of Karma 

The Law of Attraction and The Law of Karma, or Cause and Effect, work together. If you evaluate a situation negatively with dark thoughts and emotions you will be very tempted to act upon it, especially if you are unconscious of your motivation.

The Law of Karma is a compassionate universal law that works to help us get back to our natural state of harmony. You will have to face the same or similar life situation over and over again until you respond from a place of sincere love, consistently. 

Emotional Empowerment

Thoughts are empowered to manifest physically as emotions and shape our physical reality; first, in our body, then our surroundings, then others around us and indeed the world. 

Why do they have such power?

Because our emotions are empowered by our Soul! And, the dominating character of our Soul is Love. Love is our natural condition, but when Love is perverted in the subconscious ego by fearful thinking itt causes us, each of us, to suffer.

In the next study we will discuss simple ways to change your reality even when you are tempted by negative emotions!

Until next time consider this quote to reflect upon:

“Will Power must be held responsible together with Fear for bringing into your life the very things you dread. ”

Eugene Fersen, Fundamental Principles of Science of Being, page 159.

Professor Ellen Langer of Harvard speaks on her research and upcoming movie about your emotions shaping your reality, as featured on CBS:

Your spiritually driven life as a Spiritual Warrior

animated-lotus

The human road can be winding and pitted with so many challenges, temptations, glitz and glamour that it can distract you from living a spiritually driven life. The ego wants to keep everything status quo because of conditioning.

Yet, the spiritual warrior within is lead by our Spiritual Heart with the Conscious Wisdom and Love to create conditions for not only our own happiness, but for others and indeed for the world.

The message of Divine Love

We have had spiritual teachers through the ages as examples of a spiritual warrior and Jesus is  a representative of Divine Love. According to teachings, though he faced many human temptations he chose the Divine Road, showing us how we are meant to live a spiritually driven life; to be a spiritual warrior.

As an insurrectionist his teachings challenged the social and religious order. And, people of influence at that time feared his deviant and very empowering teachings that the kingdom of God is near at hand for all rather than only for a few

The message of Divine Mind

The message of Divine Mind is the wisdom of the heart, the wisdom of Love: the kingdom of Harmony is close at hand and within everyone’s own Heart and Mind.  

We can feel in our Heart what is both wise and loving. We consciously choose to be aware consciously and in the moment. We consciously choose to be loving. 

The ego and blind beliefs of the subconscious that wants to keep us enslaved to memories, superstitions and conditioning are released as we awaken to the illusion of their influence. With our spiritual Will we choose the spiritual path and to Be a spiritual Warrior ….. Choosing to Be Strong, Intelligent, Truthful and Law abiding, and Loving. 

Facing Temptations

As a spiritual warrior we will and do face 3 similar temptations like all Great Spiritual Teachers. They are as in these questions, asking us if we are willing to let the ‘me,’ the ego die in order to create our happiness and spiritual fulfillment:

  1. Do we hunger for fulfillment, but live by human bread alone?
  2. Do we doubt the All encompassing Eternal and our innate Divine nature?
  3. Do we get lost in the human world of challenges, glamour and desire for influence and power?

Apathy delays us.

Doubt cripples our progress.

And greed, pride, jealousy, fear and other subconscious, egotistic traits perverts us.

We are capable Divine Beings that can choose to be FourSquare ….. Enthusiastic, Consciously aware, Principled and Loving. 

Being a Spiritual warrior

You live a spiritually driven life and are a spiritual warrior, when you consciously manifest both personal and unconditional Love.

When you are conscious of the wisdom of your Heart and connect with your Higher Self  and listen to Intuition.

When you consciously face temptations of anger, revenge, worry or fear with courage and Love, letting them past you by, choosing higher level of conscious responses, like optimism, release and understanding. 

As a spiritual warrior – remember You are a powerful Being that has created this moment for yourself to remember your own inner authentic powers as a Universal Soul.

You are Strong, Wise, Sincere and Loving. And, You have the Creator, Divine Mind and Divine Love supporting You. 

In the hope You find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

Until next time consider this quote to reflect upon:

“Mind, through his own mistakes due to Pride, at first destroyed his very life, but having REALIZED HIS MISDIRECTION starts to regenerate it, to rebuild it on a right basis.  MIND, WHEN MISAPPLIED, DEBASES LIFE; PROPERLY USED, EXALTS IT.”

Unlocking your True Self

Photo by Monstera on Pexels.com

Our entire being, body, mind and Soul is deeply connected to The Creator …. to Cosmic Consciousness …. to Universal Truth …. to Infinite Love …. to the Great Field of Universal Life Energy. It’s in our DNA and cell memories …. but temporarily locked away and imprisoned by the subconscious ego. Our job …. our opportunity …. our joy is to unlock our own True Self …. and co-create our happiness in this reality!  

Portion your day

Through Universal Life Energy we connect with the qualities of our True Self ….. with Strength, Wisdom, Truth and Love. I’ve found that there is an easy way to approach the daunting challenge of staying conscious of our connection with Source, in continual contact with Universal Life Energy, throughout our busy day.  We currently create our reality in time and space …. and that’s all good …. so let us align with them.

View your entire day as occurring in portions …. and ….have a sincere intent to consciously be in contact with Universal Life Energy in each portion. Have an intent to consciously observe and enjoy the space you are in.

Have a sincere intent to work to be Enthusiastic, Intelligence, Sincere and Loving See the beauty in things ….. appreciate them ….. and be feel grateful.

As you awake in the mornings… that’s a portion. Even as you continue to slumber but gain consciousness … mentally contact Universal Life Energy: I am One with Universal Life Energy. I feel It flowing through me Now.

Making and eating breakfast are portions. At the beginning work potion remember to be conscious of continuing in the flow. It can energize you physically and mentally… open you to appreciation of the moment.

Before sleep ….

Realize something like, “I am One with Universal Life Energy that is flowing through me now. It flows through every nerve, hair and organ. I am in perfect health and am Strong, Wise, Honest and Loving. I am Spirit and Matter, body, mind and Soul.”  

My intent is to feel emotionally as if it is already manifested….because it has on the mental level….and what is true on one level will attract the same for all levels.

Hope you consider this method of conscious awareness and connection Source and your Real Self. Kindly share any of your insights, inspirations or questions. It may help us all!

In the hope you find Love close at hand, PortiaSLB

“The most trivial and ordinary of your daily occupations becomes just as great a factor in the work of self-reconstruction as the more responsible ones when put to the test of the principles contained in these lessons.”

Ways of a Light Seeker: Setting the tone for your day

Photo by rizknas on Pexels.com

Each of us are reaching for Enlightenment, whether we are conscious of it or not. It is a quality and promise of the Law of Evolution which is ever unfolding. And it is open to everyone and has no requirement other than to relax body, mind, emotions and surrender to Truth, Joy and Peace.

But there are obstacles that the human mind sets in place: 1) ignorance and fallacious beliefs, 2) pride and valuing something else because of the payoffs, and 3) impatience.

For those of us on our spiritual journey who are conscious and aware …. our behaviors have shades of meaning. We view life as opportunities for spiritual growth and choices that concur with our spiritual awareness.

There is a connection between how we start our day and what kind of life we have. The attitude you wakeup with and your morning habits bleed into your day. Like me, you may be very aware and have experienced it yourself!

PRACTICES

Here are some morning practices that can help us start our day identifying with Spirit and our inner Joy and Happiness …. setting the tone for the day.

1. Upon waking do an attitude check and become conscious of gratitude for Life, Intelligence, Truth and Love ….. and gratitude for all the opportunities that have come and are to come.

I do this before even opening my eyes! An attitude of Gratitude brightens my day and I know that there is much to look forward to. Even challenges we are to face are opportunities for growth!

2. Make the Mental Contact with Universal Life Energy. You can also place yourself in the Star Exercise position in the bed and make the Mental Contact.

3. While still in the Star Position make these Declarations of Truth from the spark of Unconditional Love in your Heart as shared by The Teacher, Svetozar:

“Father, Thou art inspiring me on the Spiritual Plane.

Thou art guiding me on the mental plane.

Thou art sustaining and protecting me on the material plane.

I am Thy individualized projection into Thy own Eternal substance.

Indissolubly connected with Thee, manifesting all Thy qualities and Powers.”

Thank You.

4. After rising, avoid phones and mass media. Meditate with deep Breathing, Relaxation and Silence for as much time as you allow. This can bridge the human mind to Truth and open the door to Unconditional Love.

5. Read some inspiring works or write in your spiritual journal. Set sincere purposes for being considerate, honest, fearless, friendly, kind and loving.

6. Go outside and walk barefoot upon Mother Earth in the sun as appropriate. Do some deep breathing and observe Nature in the moment.

Kindly share any of your experiences, comments or questions.

Inner art

photo PSLB New Zealand

Creativity is a spiritual process that as humans we sometimes overlook and underrate because we are not normally aware that we are constantly creating. We don’t see ourselves as artists …… or creators. Yet, we are constantly creating.

Creative Process

Art is the invisible within …… and the expressions of art are the manifestations. Art is the Power and Inner Being behind the creative process …….behind the manifestation of creation of works of art, rather than the works of art themselves. And that creative process is part of our life everyday.

It is the waking up and beginning your daily life of thoughts, motivations, and behaviors. You are creating within every moment of your day. Actually it is more accurate to say we are co-creators because …… there is nothing we can do without the Source, Our Father, the Eternal.

You are making choices and creating your reality …… with your thoughts, attitudes and behaviors. And this is art ….. the creative process.

Your attitudes and emotions motivate your thoughts ….. and you behave, take actions accordingly. Your actions create an effect. Everything is connected in mind, past memories and emotions, possible futures and most importantly ….. what is happening right now.

The Conscious Artist

A person conscious of being a creative artist …… loves the process of creating ….. and aware of what motives them in the present moment. Now some may call this spiritual awareness or even religious devotion ….. and it is in a way, because …… we are becoming conscious of the Divine within ourselves.

When we toast a piece of bread, paste a picture in a memory book or call a friend ….. we are being the artist …… because we are in the creative process. And we can choose to be conscious of it ….. love it ….. and create beauty because of love within ….. or slide along unconscious of our motivations or what, how we are creating.

We often create unconsciously with subconscious traits rooted in fear and ignorance, like anxiety, desire and pride. And we can be totally unaware of how such emotions motivate our thoughts and behaviors ….. and we end up creating problems/challenges for ourselves.

This inner creative quality is something to cherish and nourish

We usually dismiss and forget our creative process all together in our every day life. Yet, when we become conscious of being motivated by love and other qualities of love like ….. hope, appreciation, consideration, and compassion ….. then we are in the process of creating reality with these motivations …… and we attract more of the same …..

Then art is not a thing of beauty ….. art is beauty. Art is the inner creative cause within you …… the honoring of love and beauty. In this respect, art and our spiritual journey are one and the same.

In the hope You find your Inner Artist, PortiaSLB

“One instant of time, and that instant is NOW, is one of the most precious and least appreciated of all the gifts with which Mankind is endowed.”

Eugene Fersen, The Fundamental Principles of Science of Being, page 252.

For a link to this week’s lesson from 27 Lessons in Science of Being: Intuition Now

A State of Mind

 A State of Mind

We should try to develop the love of Beauty, which is at the foundation of our being.”  Eugene Fersen

It’s amazing how the beauty and power of Alaska can be captured on an iPad! Yet, it is also amazing that there is so much beauty in this world to enjoy. It out weights the dross. And, everything, everything – says something about our earthly condition. It speaks to us in deep and profound ways and all we have to do is be conscious and aware of it.

The Law of Analogy is such a powerful law to help us understand ourselves and of great benefit for those on a conscious spiritual journey. The law Itself is beautiful.

Glacier MeltThe different states of water can be used to symbolize the different states of mind. The liquid state is like the lively, discriminating consciousness, while the frozen state is like the fixed ideas, beliefs and habitual behavioral patterns of subconsciousness.

The subconscious freezes and imprisons the beauty and Love of Mind, dominating our emotions and behaviors with traits like irritability, worry, guilt or greed if we let it. 

Being frozen is hell for us, because the Great Law says Life is constant vibration, change and gradual evolution.

Just like the way the sun can melt a 10,000 year old glacier in Glacier National Park so can unconditional Love of Universal Life Energy melt and change the frozen misconceptions of the subconscious. 

We may think we don’t like change, but everything else about us says that we do. That’s an analogy that can help us be courageous in challenging situations!

With Light and Love, Portia SLB
