compassion, collaboration & cooperation iN transistion
What would you do if you weren't afraid?
You must learn to be fearless enough to drop what you think you know about God. You must be fearless enough to step away from what others have told you about God.You must be fearless that you can dare to enter into your own experience of GOD.

No Longer Afraid of Change
Many people are scared of change, of that which is new. They are deeply attached to the status quo in which everything appears to be predictable, comfortable, and therefore, safe. But for what I call the evolutionary impulse—the energy and intelligence that gave rise to the universe and is animating our bodies, minds, and personalities in this very moment—that is a description of spiritual stagnation. When you awaken to the dynamism of that creative impulse in yourself, the only place you will feel truly comfortable is at the very edge of the leading edge—where, in every moment, everything is possible and new potentials continually emerge.
Evolutionary Enlightenment is a spiritual path and practice that allows you to live on that edge — it creates the conditions within yourself for something new to emerge that has never existed before.

People who live in fear put up walls around themselves. They create armor so thick that nothing
can get out or in. It’s time to tear down walls you may be aware of and take a risk.
Do something that you’ve always dreamed of doing. This might be jump off the high dive at the
pool, join Toastmasters and face fears of public speaking or simply tell someone you love them.

Hello Michael, I love your posts…
Thanks for provoking thought, something I am passionate towards. I write what I call 'Prose to Ponder' - thoughts I experience upon focussing on emotions running through my physical body. As I focus on the emotions, the words come, and I know the words to write upon the feeling of love corresponding with each word. Following is a Prose I wrote a while ago, and while I was reading your post an 'overall' feeling came to
share these thoughts:
Mind-Body Connection (#25)
Ones human life, what one develops with gift of opportunity, is representative of energy concentrations becoming manifest by way of ones intentions, brought to form through action - a process of ones brain filtering it's souls guidance, the moving of energy in form of signals developed from thought; showing itself through physical movement. Ones physical 'reality' is direct representation of what one thinks about most,
whether through thoughts foremost in ones mind, or thoughts underlying ones conscious awareness, and in conjunction with strength of emotion supporting a current thought. Through personal introspection we gain
insight into why we make the choices we do, and create for ourselves opportunity to take action towards that which we truly desire our human life to express, expresing it in a way unique only to ourselves, as
soul guides us individually. How we feel about others, what we think about others, how we describe others, are all reflective of what our own belief system represent, along with displaying into view insecurities we manifest resulting of our souls life experience. Insecurities represent negatively charged 'life lessons'; those
experiences in life we have not yet mastered but rather hold in fear, and therefore do not fully understand nor encapsulate truth knowledge regarding, continuing to experience negative charge regarding until we
learn to emotionally shift the fear experience to a positive energy charge: recognizing the negative energy pattern upon awareness of negative feeling/sensation in the body and making a concious effort to change it in the moment of its manifestation.
We experience confidence when we are not holding the energy we call 'fear' around a particular (inter) action. Fear is representative of the dismissal of our ability to securely trust ones emotional body - our conduit to divinity - it is a choice to disregard our intuition.
Intuition is ability to trust, and within atmosphere of trust ability to connect ones physical body 'mind' with balance of soul-mind to further put into action the guidance of soul condusive to ones current life essence. Come to know the energy of emotions (energy-motions) we feel in our bodies; learning to speak the language of soul.

If I have even just a little sense - I will walk on the main road and my
only fear will be of straying from it. Keeping to the main road is easy -
but people love to be sidetracked.

Michael,
Admittedly, I don't always grok all of your brilliant posts but I certainly do appreciate them. I smiled widely with this particular post as I do relate wholeheartedly. Thank you for the weaving of yours and other's
wisdom in the wonderful way that you do.

ABSOLUTELY SO

this split in the ways photograph which I took in North Oxford many moons
ago - never forgetting that once on the path ALL paths eventually lead
to the same place
