When They Go Low, You Go High

Relationships provide us with our greatest opportunities for spiritual growth.  Some relationships bless us with love and joy, and others bring challenges that help us grow stronger and wiser. We can be grateful for everyone who comes our way, friend or apparent foe. Ultimately our foes are our friends because they teach us through important experience.

Whose Permission Do You Need?

I was coaching a woman who had been out of work for a while. Then she was offered a job she really liked. “I feel guilty because I am so excited about taking the job,” she told me. “My spiritual studies tell me I am not supposed to want things.”

His job is to hold the vision of well-being no matter what adverse conditions presents themselves.  If there is war, famine, or threatening weather, he is the one person in the tribe who does not drop into fear or upset, even while others may. He is the rock upon which the tribe continues to thrive, and inspires the others to persevere and triumph.
