11:11 Angels Message Board

Here's a discovery we can make along our ecological Pilgrim's Progress: the discovery of what can happen through us. If we are the rocks dancing, then that which evolved us from those rocks carries us forward now and sustains us in our work for the continuance of life.

When I admired a nurse for her strength and devotion in keeping long hours in the children's ward, she shrugged off my compliment as if it were entirely misplaced. "It's not my strength, you know. I get it from them," she said, nodding at the rows of cots and cribs. "They give me what I need to keep going." Whether tending a garden or cooking in a soup kitchen, there is the sense sometimes of being sustained by something beyond one's own individual power, a sense of being acted "through."

That is the beginning of a short, very thoughtful essay.

Hey Welles!

I shared the same over at www.spiritualportal.net

Thank you for introducing me to www.awakin.org

This reading is JUICY. I am in love with helping people reshape the definition of Power.

In this instance, we are using Nature as the ultimate teacher.

It's a great read!

Happy for all the gems you circulate through out this MB.
