Remember, we are souls in disguise. We are disguised in our body, in a body suit or, as Alan Watts called it, in our ‘bag of skin’. Remember, too, that though we only have one lifetime to act out, our soul is already loaded down by a heavy string of lives, past incarnations, anchored...

Souls_No Such Thing As a Lost Soul [part1/2]
It is through a soulful link to our spirit and through the underlying principle that, though each challenge comes uninvited and is always most inopportune, we need to ‘actively’ accept all our disappointments and setbacks with an open heart. Accepting under duress and acquiring a ‘poor me’ victim status are not viable options. It...

More and more all around, we will have to interact differently with strangers, friends or enemies not yet recognized in this lifetime, as our cities, towns and suburbs come under the karmic whip yielded by Mother Nature, but not only by her.
