#ThoughtHealing Quote
For The Week: “So you may have gotten into the habit of doubting the voice that
was telling you quite clearly what was really going on. It is essential that
you get it back.” Anne Lamott
I love the Internet. I love being able to find information
on any topic from countless points of view and too-numerous-to-count perspectives.
I can learn about anything that interests, provokes, amuses, or annoys me.
But as much as I love it, I can quickly become overwhelmed
with the staggering volume of information – books, webinars, classes, seminars,
newsletters, workshops, blogs – that is available to me, all of which is
fascinating and compelling but also – well – overwhelming.
Plus, I can easily fall into another information trap: the assumption
that the way to enlightenment requires not only exploring all of the tools but
using them all as well in order to ensure I do something the “right” way.
But if we believe that enlightenment cannot be achieved
without using all of the tools available, and, moreover, classes and workshops
are the only means by which we learn to use these tools, then the tools become
a trap. Which for most of us means that
instead of trusting ourselves to know what is in our best and highest interest,
we “passively wait and see.”
Don’t get me wrong. I’m all for asking for guidance when I
need guidance. I sign up for classes, buy books, meet with my psychic mentor
regularly. There are times when we need help from someone else who is further
along the path, who has experience and wisdom and knowledge and tools that we
need so that we may improve our own abilities in order to better assist, heal,
and guide others. But, the starting point must be in our ability to recognize
our OWN abilities, to trust our intuition, to carve out for ourselves the path
through the wilderness that is our time here on Earth.
In his now-classic book, “What Color is Your Parachute,”
Richard Nelson Bolles makes this observation: “Your heart
knows the places that it loves. Your mind knows the subjects that it loves.
Your body knows the workout that it loves. Your soul knows the values that it
loves. Therefore, my friend, what a “dream job” is all about (beyond skills) is
identifying these favorite geographies, defining for yourself the places that
your skills, your soul, and your body, heart, and mind, most often yearn to
be.”
Are you listening
to the truest part of yourself? Do you know what your “favorite geographies” are? What speaks to the deepest part of your nature ?
Surely, the most credible vital facts are what we know at
the soul level about ourselves. And I think we all know our truths, our own
credible vital facts. We only need to listen to our own clear voice.
Think about it!
