“The great thing about change, is that it absolutely, positively, always means things are going to get even better. Even when you don’t know how.”
~Mike Dooley~
Patterns and habits create a sense of safety. It’s helpful to remember that the ego is terrified of change and will always attempt to cling to the known. Conversely, the soul craves adventure and expansion. Our purpose here is to evolve and that often involves the willingness to try something new.
The paradoxical nature of our experience calls upon us to blend two ways of being: consistent spiritual practice and conscious exploration. Creating a powerful spiritual foundation prepares us to navigate any challenge that we face with greater aplomb. When things spin wildly out of control, the spiritual seeker often discovers a sense of safety in the storm. We rise through the changes and emerge transformed.
Be concerned with the total understanding of mankind. The tapestry that we create together is a beautiful blending of tastes, practices and cultures – all containing nuances that add richness to our collective life experience. Consider the fullness of the infinite and all that it contains. From the tiniest life form to the brightest star, we are One.
