After numerous decades of living, we humans begin to notice that our address books are having more and more names crossed out — or deleted, as the case may be. Many of us stress over this, and it becomes a constant topic of conversation when we’re together with others. We know lots of dead people, do we not? Many of our friends have moved offstage, and we’re standing in the queue. But as some of us move out, others move in. There are more and more grandchildren — either ours or our friends — and we delight in the newness and pure love. And that’s a good thing. We are in the process of recycling, perhaps? As many wise seers remind us, Reality is that which does not change. And nothing material is permanent. It is all in the process of changing. I have always chosen to embrace change and I hope to be as fearless in this unknown adventure. But for now, I choose to ground myself in the earth; feel the openness of the sky; watch the trees renewing themselves, and know all is well. Namaste…
“Change is always fearful to the separated, because they cannot conceive of it as a move towards healing the separation. They always perceive it as a move toward further separation, because the separation was their first experience of change. You believe that if you allow no change to enter into your ego you will find peace. This profound confusion is possible only if you maintain that the same thought system can stand on two foundations. Nothing can reach spirit from the ego, and nothing can reach the ego from spirit. Spirit can neither strengthen the ego nor reduce the conflict within it.” A Course in Miracles T-4.I.2
"The true history of the universe, including man is not in material history but in spiritual development. Inspired thought relinquishes a material, sensual, and mortal theory of the universe, and adopts the spiritual and immortal.” Mary Baker Eddy - Science & Health Page 547
