Start where you are...

Nothing needs to be fixed.

"Tolerance does not . . . do anything, embrace anyone, champion any issue. It wipes the notes off the score of life and replaces them with one long bar of rest. It does not attack error, it does not champion truth, it does not hate evil, it does not love good." -- Walter Farrell

That is a thought-full to contemplate.



As we understand it, the spiritual journey is not about becoming perfect. It's about acceptance, releasing judgment, and embracing everything in wholeness. This is a great challenge for our personality. We've grown up comparing ourselves to others, always judging how we're better and worse than those around us. And many of us are very good at finding fault with ourselves. If we release judgment, then nothing needs to be fixed -- including you. Explore inviting your soul to help you accept all that is and experience a whole new way of living.

"Wherever you are is always the right place. There is never a need to fix anything, to hitch up the bootstraps of the soul and start at some higherplace. Start right where you are."
-- Julia Cameron
