I’ve been to the eye doc, mammogram, physical check ups — but how am I emotionally and intellectually? What are my most important values? How am I learning? How are my goals and beliefs evolving? What are my next steps?
BE KIND
Regardless of disagreements or differences
BE BRAVE
Stick up for people who have no voice
Apologize when you’re wrong
Intentionally seek truth, even if it’s hard or shines you in a bad light
BE CURIOUS
Always learning.
growth = life
I believe God/Jesus is a symbol/message/parable of how life = love & light – growing and connecting.
But…Religion is just a way to control behavior.
FLOW
Align
Be water. Drink water.
Don’t be ice or vapor (fixed or melting)
Don’t be too rigid or cold
Don’t be too moldable or influenceable
Let go of your racing thoughts bouncing around.
Be flexible but strong
Come back to center — be you!
Reflect the light
Make waves when necessary
Be ok with circles like a lake – I don’t need anyone in my corner, just appreciate the circle. Open the circle, and all become one like a candle and a flame.
