This season of renewal seems so pertinent to our daily life in this age of pandemic. A change of thought is looming and is also being resisted. The words our friend, Jim Young, sent out on Easter, bear repeating, whether you've already read them or if they're new to you here.
"Easter as a metaphor:
As a metaphor, Easter can be thought of as nailing our hidden guilt and shame, outmoded beliefs and opinions, regrets and fanciful desires on the cross of self-forgiveness—rising to begin life anew. Especially in these times of the coronavirus—but always—each new day can begin this way, freeing us from a mental, emotional and physical load that traps us in ego consciousness, manifesting as a world of seeming difference and separation.
Life is not about seeking to gain something we feel we’re not or have not. Life is about peeling away what we’ve taken on as the truth about life and our part in it, so we can instead reveal and express our innate essence Being—living true to our Self—united as one. This is where inner peace and the expression of authentic love begin and end.
NAMASTE!
Jim"
"The necessity for uplifting the race is father to the fact that Mind can do it; for Mind can impart purity instead of impurity, strength instead of weakness, and health instead of disease. Truth is an alterative in the entire system, and can make it 'every whit whole.'" Mary Baker Eddy - Science & Health Page 371
