Choosing Unity
The choice is yours:
My world or His world?
My nature or His Nature?
My ego that separates me from others, or acts of connection that draw us towards Him?
- Choose unity to give Life to the one soul, Adam.
- Choose Life!

Notions of Eternal Return: From a private address ...
Amazing! information from the comments of DD "More than they knew".
On some advanced levels: seeking that which would unite you with your enemies could seriously bring one to one's knees. There will arise many questions there: the thinking mind will likely admit them, and toss aside any grace as 'yesterday's child'. Innocence will take up lodging in concealment, maybe even take up a case against you: 'she punched my lights out!'. The ego wants consolation.
I heard today that unless we learn to balance our incessant cravings with a gratefulness journal, that this dialogue will merely mutate and change, but will not give in easily.
"It's your life or your property" a showdown with ego. Why don't people throw down whatever drags down their soul to the depths?
Who was yesterday's child's mother?
Who was yesterday's child's father?

Seek the source of where that unity derives, dwell in the source and let it permeate through you.
