Effortless = Enlightened
Life is so intelligently organized and self-organizing that it is only the habit of un-awareness that causes us to think and behave as if we could improve on its design, or ignore or resist it! Yet, when we yield to it – the experience of enlightenment – living becomes effortless. We’ve got out ot the way and allowed Life to live us! Magnificently. Joyously. Limitlessly.
I’d rather have your Appreciation (which would be nice but not necessary) than your Approval (which I don’t need)
Situation 1 A friend tries a dress on. She asks your opinion. You say either: A. It looks great on you. I love it. B. I like how it is so flattering. Situation 2 Your child puts his toys away without being told. You say either: A. Oh darling, thank you! That’s so nice. B.
Do we need to compete to be, do and have more?
We are conditioned to compete. We want to be superior because we have not learned a better way of handling our insecurities.

They have lived to tell the story. We listen and mixed in with our admiration

There is a silent rage within me
Something happened in Nevada in America on the weekend. It had to do with the Nevada Democratic State Convention and the finalizing of the number of delegates that would be accorded to each of the two democratic presidential candidates, Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
