Recently I had been agonizing over a decision regarding two avenues for spiritual expression. Both avenues are intrinsic to each other, so it really made no difference which I chose, but for some reason one gave me a sense of peace and calm. It filled me with a feeling of creativity and freedom; while the other made me feel impatient, overwhelmed and uncertain.

In my dream experience the ego mind wanted a different house, a newer house; it wanted the clutter and collections of papers gone, the kitchen kept neat and clean. The ego mind wanted to ‘know’ that it would be taken care of, since I did not ever totally support myself. (Is there some thing that prevents me from learning this now?) The “payoff” to being weak is that someone will take care of me— at what cost? I feel guilty (because I’m using them) I feel worthless, less than. I feel hopeless, that I’ll never change.

I utilize defensiveness when I want to be “right” rather than happy.
Defensive behavior is unnerving and unpleasant to be around. When I see it in others I can identify it quite easily and understand that the defensive person is just in a temporary state of fear and is lashing out.
When I engage in defensiveness I am able to see that I am making a choice to be defensive. It seems to be a security blanket for me at times. It is a way to keep threatening people at arms length.

Most people are happy. Not all the time though. Ever wonder why that is? What creates this shift from happy to sad, from peaceful to angry? What I will share with you is not the latest leadership fad. It is much deeper and lasting. If you don’t like what you see in your life and world around you, the leader within you is your point of power to change. You can access the leader within.

A difficult dream awoke me last night. I decided to put my favorite CD from Pathways of Light (course 914) on repeat. I then went back to sleep. When ever I awoke a little, I could hear some sentence of loving truth from the CD.
Gradually my dreams started to change. There was more love and understanding of others as well as more gentleness in them. Then it came to me that if I did this same procedure during the day — that is, always think loving truth — my day dream (life experience) would change naturally from difficulties to loving joy and peace.

Disarm me, Father,
And dampen the fearful fire
Of my mistrust —
That fire in the belly
Which seems to consume my body.

I am discovering through my immersion in A Course in Miracles that I receive infinite gifts. I am continually aware that the Text and Lessons of ACIM offers me a framework that I choose for my life in these days. This, in itself, is profound and leaves me full of awe. Right now what centers in my mind as very poignant are moments of bringing my attention to some aspect of my life and allowing the Course to give me what I need.
