In the Michael Teachings, we are described as fragments of a larger consciousness, called an entity. Each fragment embarks upon its own journey through many lifetimes, gathering experiences, developing wisdom, and gradually remembering its connection to the whole. Eventually, a fragment completes its cycle of physical incarnations. It has graduated, so to speak. Yet the

There are moments when we feel we’ve chosen poorly, said the wrong thing, or placed our trust in someone who leads us down a path we would never have consciously chosen. Yet, contrary to how it may feel in the moment, each challenge has purpose. Sometimes we must wear blinders in order to facilitate our
There’s something beautiful about having someone (or something) for whom to care.
