Hello Friend, n
"You and everyone, have the right to choose your own direction in life." That, my friend, is your spiritual right. n
"We live in a society of exclusion. There is this idea that we should try to keep people out -- 'Oh, you can't come into this nclub, you have to be a member, you don't have enough money, you're not handsome eough.' But if you go through life with the opposite attitude and try to include everybody, it opens doors." Jay Leno, American comedian and television host
The best way to be understood is to listen to what others say. The best way to be accepted, is to open our doors and our hearts to all. It is one of those great paradoxes in life that when we give away what we most need, then what we need most is freely given back.
A spiritual exercise to practice is to do one thing for someone without them first knowing of it. Do this one thing without thought of reward or thanks. Do it with love and for love.
May the blessings be,
Brendann

Here's the Good News About Life: IT IS ALL GOOD
As we become more aware and attuned to the multi-dimensional nature of both the Universe and OURSELVES, we create many opportunities for growth. An important aspect of growth is honoring the many facets of who we are. We cannot "hang out in the ethers" to escape Earthly events, nor can we deny that we are "spiritual beings having a human experience." Most of my early life I operated as a warrior who marched into situations braced by the armor of my convictions. Though this served me well in the past, I've learned that it is no longer necessary, or even desirable.

Sometimes we think we've moved so far forward that a "Been there, done that!" attitude clouds our memory and limits our options. Fear is an ongoing challenge in this world so we need all the assistance we can muster.

PAYING ATTENTION TO THE COSMIC TUMBLERS
In the movie ‘Field of Dreams,” Ray Kinsella (Kevin Costner) quotes author Terence Mann (James Earl Jones ) as saying: “There comes a time when all the cosmic tumblers have clicked into place — and the universe opens itself up for a few seconds to show you what’s possible.” In the film, Terence Mann also laments the tragic fact that most folks aren't even aware of that opening when it occurs, so they never walk through the doors that will lead them into their life's potential.

Toxic People or Situation? LEAVE IT IN THE 'MYSTERY'
All of us will encounter toxic individuals and circumstances in our lives at one time or another. During those experiences we need to use whatever helpful tools we can find to stay balanced and clear about "who we are." One of the methods I use to maintain perspective is to create a "healthy level of detachment." Healthy, because I still have my heart engaged, but am detached enough not to be running amuck in an emotional minefield.
