  • Being Ourself
    Name:
    Being Ourself
    Status: Member
    Description: This is a group for people who recognize in a profoundly personal way that we are all actually facets of one whole interacting with itself, or more accurately, Ourself. It is a place for peer discussion and exploration as we move through the challenges and insights we encounter while participating in the awakening of ourselves to our common fundamental identity, Ourself. As indivisible aspects of the single, infinitely diverse entity of everything/reality/creation we all have an opportunity and a responsibility to deepen humankind's awareness of Ourself, and to enrich our language with new terminology/ideas to more accurately portray that which truly is. We want to support each other as we discover wholeness while living in a society that defines everything (including God) as separate when in fact the creator and creation (including all people, animals, plants, minerals, and seen and unseen forces of spirit) are not in any actual way separate. So don't be shy... your vantage point of the whole is completely unique, and is just as valid and important as anybody elses. Enlightenment is the recognition of the wholeness, which by its very all-inclusive nature negates the validity of any kind of exclusive spiritual authority or guru. To allow ourselves to truly feel and be aware of ourselves as part of the great wholeness we need to stop putting others on a pedestal as a way of avoiding being accountable for shining our own light. Let's get the orchestra of the wholeness playing diversely, brilliantly, and powerfully enough to wake up humankind from the illusion of separateness. We can only accomplish this as a community of distinct voices and insights singing out in the harmony of the whole, and not by silencing our own special voice because we have decided some other "enlightened" teacher has a monopoly on authenticity! So sing out your insights, your questions... cry out your pains and frustrations... and love your neighbor as yourself because in truth they are; we are all precious dimensions of one whole. Let's respectfully, gently, and lovingly be Ourself together.

  • God's Plan v. Law of Attraction
    Name:
    God's Plan v. Law of Attraction
    Status: Member
    Description: Recently, there has been much discussion about the Law of Attraction. In 2007, The Oprah Show featured a group that had a "Secret" about getting what you want out of life. The discussion led to anatioanl debate about he merits of this euphoric idea that everyone could change their life's course by using the Law of Attraction principle. I believe this not new. The Bible has always taught that God gave each of us the power to make choices that will change our destiny. It is no "Secret" but it is God's Divine Providence. Everyone can change their outcomes in life if they allow God's own words to resonate in their lives. It is not the Law of Attraction. It is God's Divine will that we can get what we want out of life, but the choice is up to us. Visit the website: www.lifesjourneywebsite.com, and find out how everyone has the authority to get what they want, but each one must realize his or her own God given authority.
  • Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi
    Name:
    Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi
    Status: Member
    Description: Lord, make me an instrument of your peace. Where there is hatred, let me sow love; Where there is injury,pardon; Where there is doubt, faith; Where there is despair, hope; Where there is darkness, light; And where there is sadness, joy. O Divine Master, Grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen

  • Morning Pages Group
    Name:
    Morning Pages Group
    Status: Member
    Description: Hi, thought I'd create this group to find people to help me make sure I do my daily "morning pages." If you're not familiar, check out Julia Cameron's book, "The Artist's Way." The idea is that every morning you write three pages of anything, just three pages, and your life begins to shake off its dust and become more creative and flowing and lively. Wanna try? I'm thinking we each check in here right after we've done our pages (which can actually be done any time). Every day. If you missed
