Eighth Day of Creation: Honoring Our Personal Gifts
“Explore daily the will of God.”
Carl Jung (Swiss Psychiatrist & Psychotherapist; July 26th, 1875 to June 6th, 1961)
“Discerning our personal gifts is essential if we are to experience harmony in our lives.”
“Because our gifts carry us out into the world and make us participants in life, the uncovering of them is one of the most important tasks confronting any one of us. When we talk about being true to ourselves–being the persons we are intended to be–we are talking about gifts. We cannot be ourselves unless we are true to our gifts.”
Elizabeth O’Connor (English Writer; 1928 to 1998)
“But even in the black hole of doubt, we want to believe that a Force greater than our own power or understanding is with us. And it is. The Force is with your authentic self.”
“The Force is an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, it penetrates us, it binds galaxies together. …Follow your feelings, trust your feelings.”
Obi Wan Kenobi (Star Wars Character: Jedi Knight)
“The Force binds your dreams and desires with your personal gifts so they can find outward expression. …It is within the Force that we live and move and have our being. …The Force is Love. …Love wants wishes, and wills nothing less than your unconditional happiness, harmony, Wholeness. …Commit to discovering, acknowledging, appreciating, owning, and honoring your personal gifts. …And may the Force be with you.”
“The Force has transitioned to my idea of BEing in the FLOW. This is adjacent to BEing in the ZONE as an athlete. I have experienced both and for that human experience, I am thankful.”
