Do you ever have one of those days when you do not want to go to WORK? Well, this past Monday was one of those days! Oh my I’d rather go to the dentist. Then, I paused. Wait a minute Mary. Something is wrong with this picture. The more I listened to my “self-talk” — that me-character who is always trying to drag us down, you know the one — the more I heard my self seeing everything as work and calling everything “WORK”!
As I paused, I saw how I was labeling all kinds of things as “work.” Getting out of bed is work, exercising is work, making breakfast is work, doing laundry is work, paperwork is work, on and on… life is work.
Hmm. I don’t like where this line of thinking is headed and in fact has already gone! So, I paused, again. As I went through the PRACTICE OF THE 4 DECISIONS to receive another way of seeing what I was calling “work,” I heard within, “Drop the word ‘work’ from your vocabulary”!

Now that I have been studying the Course for a number of years I have a certain perspective. I can look back and see how I have changed, though, like most words we use, change is not really accurate. I have not changed, being a changeless creation of God. A better way to say it would be I can look back and see myself as I appeared while deeply engaged in the ego, and compare that to myself as I am slowly revealed. It looks like layers of the mask are falling away as I allow the ego thoughts to be corrected by the Holy Spirit, and so it looks like I have changed.

I have heard it said that if we could totally understand and apply any one of the concepts in the lessons of the workbook for students, it would be enough to take us home. Then the obvious question becomes, “Why are there 365 lessons, a Text, a Manuel for Teachers and pamphlets?”
Over the last year or so, I have felt so much more peaceful and happy for “no apparent reason.” With all that was going on in the world during that time, I would think that I would have to work extra hard just to keep my spiritual and emotional balance.

I attended an event by Gary and Cindy Lora-Renard recently, which was a wonderful experience. The topic of politics was briefly touched upon during their discussion, and I thought to myself how grateful I am to not be pulled into the frustration and fear that so many people experience when it comes to politics. Although it can trip my ego trigger from time to time, the daily news has not been a primary source of suffering for me, or so I thought.

It has been more than two years now since an independent filmmaker first approached me. He asked if he could make the book I authored, Forgiving Kevin, into a motion picture. It is my memoir about my years as the father of a heroin addict.
I had mixed feelings about how I should respond to the movie proposal. Years of study in A Course in Miracles have taught me to take such an important decision to the Holy Spirit for clarification.
