My personality of being direct is not something that many of those who knows me not know about. In fact, some may find my being direct has some form of harshness or brutality in it.

So we have been told that “I” am not what you think I am, and also not what I think I am. Who is in fact, the “I”, an “I? “I” began to observe in my journey lately, how truthful the statement (can’t really recall who made that statement though) is that everything that happens [...]

Prepare you now for the undoing of what never was. If you already understood the difference between truth and illusion, the Atonement would have no meaning. The holy instant, the holy relationship, the Holy Spirit’s teaching, and all the means by which salvation is accomplished, would have no purpose. For they are all but aspects [...]

Some time back, a friend asked me if she was living her life for herself, or for others. And having a cuppa with her yesterday, she asked me that question again and answered her own question: that it was both. She explained that since her parents gave her life, she is obliged to live her [...]

What is specialness but a belief of not being special?
