It has been a while since I wrote a blog about animals, and I felt the urge today to make that up to them. The more we think about animals, the more we consider our cruel treatment of them. The more that we consider our cruel treatment of animals, the more we can understand that the problems which we face in our lives and in our world are merely a
When I asked for guidance about what I could write my blog about this week, the thought came to me in French “Aucune idée”. “Great”, I thought, “my spiritual helpers are going on strike – taking a week off and flying off to Maui to be with Doreen Virtue maybe”. But later, I realised that this really was to be the subject of my blog. Often when we follow our
Even though I try not to watch the news because it is so depressing, I know there seems to be a lot of conflict in the world at the moment. What do you think is the source of this conflict? If we look to A Course in Miracles for answers, we find that the source of conflict in the world is merely a reflection of the conflict within each one
A Course in Miracles has been a bit of a rollercoaster ride for me, since I started reading it a few weeks ago. There have been times, like when I first opened the book, when I wondered if I would ever understand anything. There have been other times when I have been confronted by my deepest fear and wondered how I would ever be free of them, because they seemed to
“There’s no time like the present,” my mother used to say, when she wanted me to do something that I was procrastinating about. Perhaps what she really meant was: “There’s no time but the present.” My lessons from A Course In Miracles have taught me that, for our real spiritual selves, the present is really all that exists. I had learned previously that God is in the present moment, but
I started another course this week: “A Course In Miracles”. I had heard about A Course In Miracles before: Marianne Williamson wrote about it in A Return to Love, and I heard Robert Holden talk about it at I Can Do It! Although they made it sound interesting, I hadn’t felt the call to read it - until now. When selecting my next course at AIHT, I knew that this
I had a dream last night, in which I was having lots of fun skiing. I was just going down and back up the same hill without any snow, and having a ball in the process. When I awoke, I knew that my blog this week had to be about having fun. In today’s busy world, there always seems to be so much for us to do. Many of us
As I sit looking out of the window at the light rain falling, I am so grateful. The lawn had started to turn brown, and it crunched underfoot as I walked on it. I had been asking for rain for a while, and I’m sure I’m not the only one. By all reports, this weekend we are due for a good soaking. What better way to spend a drizzly day,
I found the inspiration for this week’s blog while cleaning my teeth this morning. I have one solitary wisdom tooth, but it still resides within my gum. Every few weeks, within the last year or so, it moves around a bit, enough for me to think that it might be about to make its way to the surface. Then it becomes dormant again for another few weeks, before it starts
Last week, if you’ll remember, I did a Tarot reading, and the card for this weekend was The Hermit. My interpretation of this card suggested that you can all be beacons of love and light to all you encounter. Some of you may be wondering just how to do that. But, the fact is, you don’t have to do anything; you just have to be something – to be your
