Today’s A Course In Miracles lesson follows on from the previous lessons, with a slight twist. Yesterday we were feeling an emotion for a reason other than what we think. Today we’re feeling emotions because we’re seeing something that’s not there, which is kind of the same thing I guess… Ooooh boy! Here’s what A […]
Should I let this go?
As I reflect on my younger years, I can see I held onto many things for much longer than I should have. They were well past their “expiry date”, but yet I kept these “things” around, in part because I didn’t want to accept that our time was up. I didn’t want to let go […]

Problem is, we all look at the world with a giant chip on our shoulder”! (Thanks Pam Grout for that sentence, which was all I […]
