I suspect this will be a land mine upon which I will throw myself – but here it goes. This is using sweeping generalizations, which means exceptions exist (but may not be the rule). Males, tend to want to be of service and/or want to solve problem(s). We’re hardwired to this behavior. Females, tend to [...]
The groom and his bride are merely trying to enjoy their first dance together as a married couple..then, something unexpected happens….
Bouncing Ball I considered all my activities which my hands had done and the labor which I had exerted, and behold all was vanity. ECCLESIASTES 2:11 There are seasons in life when our work requires more of us than it does at other times. Tax season for the accountant. Christmas season for the retailer. Whatever [...]

Os has a wonderful item today– I just needed to share. The path to unconditional love absolutely requires us to forgive..and compassion to be able to step into understanding other people’s motives and actions. December 29 You have heard that it was said, “Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.” But I tell you: Love [...]
**EDIT** HELP FIND CHELSEA’S MISSING FATHER Feb 12, 2010 Another blogger’s remembrance… I knew Chelsea beginning around 1994…she was 22 and I, 24. We met through a local BBS (for those not privileged enough to know what that was, it was like a local, dial-up version of IM/chat and a forum…)
WORKBOOK EPILOGUE This course is a beginning, not an end. Your Friend goes with you. You are not alone. No one who calls on Him can call in vain. Whatever troubles you, be certain that He has the answer, and will gladly give it to you, if you simply turn to Him and ask it [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 363 (Same as 362) This holy instant would I give to You. Be You in charge. For I would follow You, certain that Your direction gives me peace. And if I need a word to help me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also give. [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 361 This holy instant would I give to You. Be You in charge. For I would follow You, certain that Your direction gives me peace. And if I need a word to help me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also give. And if I [...]
WORKBOOK FINAL LESSONS – Introduction Our final lessons will be left as free of words as possible. We use them but at the beginning of our practicing, and only to remind us that we seek to go beyond them. Let us turn to Him Who leads the way and makes our footsteps sure. To Him [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 354 We stand together, Christ and I, in peace and certainty of purpose. And in Him is His Creator, as He is in me. My oneness with the Christ establishes me as Your Son, beyond the reach of time, and wholly free of every law but Yours. I have no self except the [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 338 I am affected only by my thoughts. It needs but this to let salvation come to all the world. For in this single thought is everyone released at last from fear. Now has he learned that no one frightens him, and nothing can endanger him. He has no enemies, and he is [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 336 Forgiveness lets me know that minds are joined. Forgiveness is the means appointed for perception’s ending. Knowledge is restored after perception first is changed, and then gives way entirely to what remains forever past its highest reach. For sights and sounds, at best, can serve but to recall the memory that lies [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 335 I choose to see my brother’s sinlessness. Forgiveness is a choice. I never see my brother as he is, for that is far beyond perception. What I see in him is merely what I wish to see, because it stands for what I want to be the truth. It is to this [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 333 Forgiveness ends the dream of conflict here. Conflict must be resolved. It cannot be evaded, set aside, denied, disguised, seen somewhere else, called by another name, or hidden by deceit of any kind, if it would be escaped. It must be seen exactly as it is, where it is thought to be, [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 331 There is no conflict, for my will is Yours. How foolish, Father, to believe Your Son could cause himself to suffer! Could he make a plan for his damnation, and be left without a certain way to his release? You love me, Father. You could never leave me desolate, to die within [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 328 I choose the second place to gain the first. What seems to be the second place is first, for all things we perceive are upside down until we listen to the Voice for God. It seems that we will gain autonomy but by our striving to be separate, and that our independence [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 326 I am forever an Effect of God. Father, I was created in Your Mind, a holy Thought that never left its home. I am forever Your Effect, and You forever and forever are my Cause. As You created me I have remained. Where You established me I still abide. And all Your [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 321 Father, my freedom is in You alone. I did not understand what made me free, nor what my freedom is, nor where to look to find it. Father, I have searched in vain until I heard Your Voice directing me. Now I would guide myself no more. For I have neither made [...]
WORKBOOK WHAT IS CREATION? – Introduction Creation is the sum of all God’s Thoughts, in number infinite, and everywhere without all limit. Only love creates, and only like itself. There was no time when all that it created was not there. Nor will there be a time when anything that it created suffers any loss. [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 317 I follow in the way appointed me. I have a special place to fill; a role for me alone. Salvation waits until I take this part as what I choose to do. Until I make this choice, I am the slave of time and human destiny. But when I willingly and gladly [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 315 All gifts my brothers give belong to me. Each day a thousand treasures come to me with every passing moment. I am blessed with gifts throughout the day, in value far beyond all things of which I can conceive. A brother smiles upon another, and my heart is gladdened. Someone speaks a [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 314 I seek a future different from the past. From new perception of the world there comes a future very different from the past. The future now is recognized as but extension of the present. Past mistakes can cast no shadows on it, so that fear has lost its idols and its images, [...]
I’ve been doing some interior soul-gazing… In the name of Love, I have permitted myself to become limited. I have a larger boundary-less nature [allowing me the luxury of not being able to say 'no' all the time, alas] – whereas my companion has specific boundaries, and is quick to (re)enforce them when broken. To [...]
WORKBOOK LESSON 288 Let me forget my brother’s past today. This is the thought that leads the way to You, and brings me to my goal. I cannot come to You without my brother. And to know my Source, I first must recognize what You created one with me. My brother’s is the hand that [...]
