These last few years though have been some pretty intense situations where I've learned what Grace really is all about. :hf: ------ [/quote] Sounds like you have been learning to embrace your shadow. It is something we must all do in order to develop awareness, humility and grace and step by step transcend our body conscious egos. :hf: [/quote]
Original Message
" The nuns taught us there were two ways through life - the way of nature and the way of grace. You have to choose which one you'll follow.
Grace doesn't try to please itself. Accepts being slighted, forgotten, disliked. Accepts insults and injuries.
Nature only wants to please itself. Get others to please it too. Likes to lord it over them. To have its own way. It finds reasons to be unhappy when all the world is shining around it. And love is smiling through all things."
