Midlife Spirituality: Choosing Your Spiritual Path
I read sometime back about an architect who designed and built an office 'campus' complex. He did not put in any sidewalks, or footpaths between the buildings. He just planted grass and waited with patience. After a few months there were well trodden paths between all of the buildings, which he used as the map for his footpaths and sidewalks. While this may seem clever -Many of us create our life Paths just this way. We wait to see where others have walked successfully or ju

(stages 1 and 2 are known as TO ME and BY ME) The third stage of spiritual growth, known as THROUGH ME, is all about allowing things to happen rather than making them or forcing them. All my life I’ve known that I could have or do anything that I put my mind

Stages of Spiritual Growth
There's an old saying from the Talmud that every blade of grass has an angel watching over it constantly whispering, GROW, GROW, GROW... If that's true about Grass, what must be true about us? Eric Butterworth in his book, Spiritual Economics wrote, Life is fundamentally a matter of growing, a growth experience. Missing the mark is one of the ways in which we learn to hit the target. Failure is a vital part of achieving success. We have erroneously thought of success as "get
