OMG! This is the perfect lesson for today, a day when we could be tempted to make ourselves miserable over something that happened that changed the direction we thought we were going to take. Instead of making myself bad or guilty, instead of blaming, we are choosing love and peace. The path is messy, but […]
Lesson 207, the perfect lesson for a day when I have grandchildren in the house. From last year’s writing: When I was a teenager in the seventies, Love Story was immensely popular and with it came the slogan, “Love means never having to say you’re sorry.” But I am rethinking that. While I understand and […]
So this lesson #206 is the spot last year where I bumped into some places that needed healing. I was believing my thoughts which is often a recipe for misery. Now, a year later, I am just happy to be on vacation and noticing how we limit ourselves with thoughts. It’s not that I no […]
This post from last year’s writing is exactly the reminder I need to be present and just enjoy the moment. As I find myself in some of my old haunts, my natural tendency is to compare what I observe to the past. I’m on vacation – I’m supposed to just enjoy! So lesson 205 reminds […]
It’s a little sad for me to read this post from last year and realize that my son wasn’t able to hold onto that job, perhaps because he isn’t accustomed to being happy. In any case, happiness is still a choice and I still believe that each of us yearns to know the divine spark […]
Today’s review lesson and this post from last year are a call to remember who we are, for there is but one power in the universe and we are part of it. When we recognize that, we natural express love and compassion. When we forget, we are calling for love. I have a love/hate relationship […]
This post from last year’s writing is a beautiful reminder that if I am busy trying to escape the present moment, I will miss it. Probably a particularly good thing for me to remember when we are on vacation, seeing people we haven’t seen in a very long time. Time to escape escaping and be […]
Today’s lesson, # 201, from last year’s writing: One is Enough Today we enter a twenty-day practice period, with the emphasis is on realizing that we are not our bodies. The cool thing about this practice period, according the Course, is that any one of them is sufficient for awakening us, saving us, lifting the […]
Today’s lesson from last year’s writing correlates perfectly with our discussion last night. “Heaven is here. There is nowhere else. Heaven is now. There is no other time.” It is the recognition that it is an ego trip to think that the “answers” are anywhere “out there” or somehow in the future. Yup, I am […]
Today’s lesson as I review last year’s writing, “I am not a body. I am free.” Still working on this one! In our ACIM class last week, we were discussing today’s idea: I am not a body. I am free. Specifically, we were wondering, if one no longer sees oneself as a body, but identifies […]
