#4, 5 & 6 stood out to me, and just this morning I was recalling everything I've learned from you (in the bite-sized nugget my mind would let me recall first thing!). It's always my choice to let my energy expand or shrink in a given situation or based on certain circumstances. I can allow my energy to be its fullest, grandest and most divine essence all the time... And I can let my ego fade into the background more often than I do.

I love that your words ring in my ears!

Take a step and feel it. Stop look and listen. Take another step. Stop look and listen. Feel the ground. Breath the air. Be focused. Become a birder. Identify your surroundings. Read maps. Harvest wild edibles respectfully. Learn a discipline. And when you finally learn to focus in the Moment without the attachments of the past or the future, then the real step comes. Learn to unfocus what you have been focusing open. The world will become a magical place beyond the narrow beam of the ego.

Hi Liara .. I'm having one of those difficult times right now .. balancing my reaction to family with some decisions they're making and not considering others .. By taking my time to answer I hope I'll have the sense to do the right thing.

Hilary, as a person chooses to detach from positive and negative, he rediscovers health and well-being in the silent stillness, in not thinking or judging at all.

Megan, every human being is on a journey. Infinite paths exist away from ego to reconnect with the spiritual, heart centre. As you dissolve fear, you detach from ego to experience what else exists. Many people imagine its difficult to give up those things that reinforce ego. Yet, each moment you step out of mind and body to connect with soul, you find it easier to dissolve your own illusions.

Bubble Maker & Popper, keep harvesting those wild edibles. The magic beam of white light emerges from within. Slide down the rainbow to connect the physical with worlds beyond those you discern. Joy never ends.

Max, do what feels right. You know as doubt dissolves.
