Rev Aimee:
It’s Kathy’s idea this morning. I just wanna say this, this stumped, the revs idea. I’m like Reverend Kathy, you’re coming to town. Why don’t you speak? She’s like, why don’t we do stump The Revs <laugh>
Rev Kathy:
So I have to say that it was never my original idea. <laugh> I got this idea from Reverend Chris Terry in Dallas and, um, at space, uh, years ago. And we did this several times and it’s gives the opportunity for the community to have a conversation and for us to see and test and, and learn as well, because then we get to see where our gaps are too.
Rev Aimee:
So great. So I’m excited to have Reverend Kathy here with us today, if you don’t know her. Um, well, Reverend Kathy’s one of my best friends. She’s from Denver, Colorado, and we went to the homes Institute we did together a while ago. And, um, Reverend Cathy has a very interesting ministry. She has something we call a focus ministry, which is that she’s out in the world doing the work and she’s doing it. And companies, teaching leaders to be more conscious. And she is one of the wisest people that I know. I always learn something when I hang out with her. So we’re super excited to have her here with us this morning.
Rev Kathy:
Well, thank you. And I think Amy’s one of the wisest people I know. So it’s a mutual admiration club and we also are like sisters. So we’ll, we might give each other a little bit of a hard time.
Rev Aimee:
Yeah, we might, that could happen. It could happen. So, um, you know, this topic this month healing, I guess we’re just gonna do a li little tee up. I mean, you can write out some questions and I, Linda is Mon gonna monitor the chat for us, what questions people have, but we’re on this topic of healing this month. And, you know, we know from Joel Goldsmith that there’s nothing to be healed only wholeness to be revealed. And Linda spoke about that last month. Like we’re not trying to fix something that’s broken. And, um, specifically I thought we might start a little bit talking about affirmative prayer and how does affirmative prayer move us forward and realizing this wholeness within ourselves, whether we’re talking about physical healing or we’re talking about, you know, healing a sense of ourselves not being enough or whatever we’re trying, we’re trying to heal or praying for someone else. So could you share a few thoughts? <laugh> I know that wasn’t a real question.
Rev Kathy:
It begins <laugh> um, yeah. I remember when I first learned about this teaching years ago and began studying that the notion of affirmative prayer was really foreign to me because I came from a tradition and a background where you asked for things you hoped for things you begged for things,
Rev Aimee:
You know, you were praying to something outside of you.
Rev Kathy:
Yeah. All that kind of stuff outside of myself. And, um, and it took a while for me to grasp the principle of affirmative prayer. What does it mean to come from a vision instead of trying to get to something, but to actually recognize that the spiritual truth of something already exists. And it’s about my getting my own vibration, my mindset, my consciousness in alignment with what is possible, what is already and moving into the band of resonance, if you will, with that idea, becoming harmonious with the thought of wholeness of healing and not caught up in the condition of it. And, um, it, it’s still an ongoing practice for me. It depends on how emotionally attached I am to something. But, um, but the difference is that when we know that God is, and therefore we are, and the I am is all, and it’s the declaration of our deep connection with everything that is the very energy, the very life force that hung the moon in the stars and causes the tides to turn in perfect time and rhythm, and even causes the rain to fall when it thinks it should, even when we would love for it, not to be that way and be sunny for our picnic.
You know? So all of that is working in perfect time. It’s that we can’t always see. We can’t always see the bigger picture. We can’t always see that, but, but we can know that that power is not limited. And we have access to that power. And the, I am is a declaration that I am one with all that is because there’s nothing else I could be. That for me was a foundation to begin learning about affirmative
Rev Aimee:
Prayer. Linda, why don’t you come to the tr front? You guys, she’s got the questions, come sit in the front row. So you don’t have to like shout from the back.
Rev Kathy:
Yes. Jeffrey
Speaker 3:
Provide
Rev Kathy:
Accidents. There are no accidents. You know,
Speaker 3:
We talked a lot about
Rev Kathy:
Any room for random actions that could only be a one off thing because there’s, um, no, oh, oh, because there’s no root cause or something. I, I actually believe we live in an ordered universe where there are causes of all kinds, but I’m not sure that there direct linear causes the way my intellect can understand. So, um, I believe that there is cause and effect, but you know, it’s like that, that cliche about the butterfly, you know, butterflies wings, flap, and there’s a tsunami on the other side of the world. It’s, it’s that sort of a bigger picture thought that’s got more abstractness to it than I think I can linearly understand. I do believe that there are times where things appear random. And in fact, in our experience they are, but I’m not sure that there isn’t a cause.
Rev Aimee:
Well, and if you think about nature, all these things that are going on right now, right? All the, and you cannot deny all the things that are happening this week, like the Pakistani village. And, you know, there’s just things happening everywhere. But it’s like when those things happen, I think this is, you know, if this is all part of the divine intelligence universe, like there is some intelligence happening, even in the midst of what we would call human tragedy.
Rev Kathy:
I also think it’s important to understand for ourselves what context we’re holding. If our context is it’s this life in this country, in this city, in this day, that’s a narrow context. If my context is it’s an eternal plan, it’s always unfolding. The whole universe is involved. Then something that feels random to me may actually be a, uh, an effect or it may be a cause, or it may be a key piece,
Rev Aimee:
Or it might be part of collect different consciousness.
Rev Kathy:
Exactly. It’s around. What’s good for the whole, not just good for me as much as I’m pretty sure I’m the center of my entire universe. So I just
Rev Aimee:
Wanna be honest. I think the other thing, and we’re coming to you in a second. I think the other thing is like, we don’t know why things happen. I remember I was taking a class at the Chopra center and one of his teachers, one of my friends went up to one of his teachers and I’ve told this story before, but, and said, you know, you can’t tell me when, when some terrorist kill children, that there’s a reason for that. And he said to her, we don’t know why things happen. Right. You know, there are some souls who come to serve others, you know, like, you know, because through what happens to them, like we don’t know, you know, but to try to let go of why, cuz we think intellectually, we should be able to figure everything out. But to really be in our spiritual place, we need to move beyond the intellectual. Right. We need to move into our feeling nature, which is spirit. Okay. She’s dying to ask us some questions. Oh,
Rev Kathy:
I did repeat his question when I was answering it. When I repeated Jeffrey’s question, there’s still confusion about it. He said there’s is there cause and effect because there’s sometimes things that don’t appear to have a cause or effect or they seem random or one off. And so is there such a thing as something that could happen randomly without any cause?
Rev Aimee:
Oh, good question.
Rev Kathy:
How
Rev Aimee:
Does, how does forgiveness fit in with healing?
Rev Kathy:
Yeah. I can’t wait to hear what you say.
Rev Aimee:
<laugh> this is what she does to me. I was gonna say, um, so my thought on that is, you know, any place us that’s that is stuck in a place that is not the present moment is not really available to be healed. Right. And what do we do most of the time we’re either living in the past, in our mind, we’re rehashing something terrible that happened that someone did to us. Right. Or we’re worried about what’s gonna happen tomorrow. Like I know I can do this. Like where’s the other shoe, John? And I was just talking about this last week. Where’s the other shoe. It’s all a little too good right now. Right. But I think forgiveness my own experience. I’m just gonna speak from my own experience about the people I’ve had that were the hardest people for me to give forgiven my life.
You know, it’s like I needed to get myself out of that. An first of all, the anguish that you have at first, when someone does something that you feel betrayed or hurt, right. You first have to get outta your anguish about it. You have to get yourself to a more level place before you’re gonna be ready to forgive. Um, which story do I wanna tell? You know, I, I, I had someone who ghosted me about five years ago and it was bad for like a month. I mean, it was just terrible. I mean, I’m not someone who cries all the time. I couldn’t stop and cuz I just couldn’t believe it. You know, I just couldn’t believe it. Like they, the actions of the person were so different than their words and their behavior and I just couldn’t believe it. And, and then, you know, it took me a while.
It probably took me a couple months and then I went to a silent retreat cuz I knew I wasn’t really okay. <laugh> and then later I came to a place of forgiveness. Right. But I also had to forgive me. Right. Because if I’m truthful, you know, there was some stuff early in that relationship that was red flags and I did not listen, you know? And so for me, the forgiveness is just part of the step of the healing and there’s so many good forgiveness paths. Like I personally love calling tipping because it helps you reframe the story. And I don’t know if you’d add anything to that.
Rev Kathy:
You know, I, I, I remember that experience and I remember watching you walk through that. It’s really important to know that we are human. We are spiritual beings, but we are also in a human body, which means we came with an emotional self, a physical self, an intellectual self, and all of those pieces are necessary. I don’t think we’re called to separate them and judge them. I think we’re called to integrate them and move to a higher level of our spiritual self being the one that’s driving. And how then do we see things at a greater level than it appears in this physical plane? So if we don’t deal with our own emotional pain and our own emotional needs, and we don’t even inquire into that because we wanna get really quickly to the forgiveness part or we shouldn’t feel a certain way or whatever, we’re dishonoring, we’re, we’re dishonoring ourselves.
And we are dishonoring the spirit that gives us life because we’re equipped for all of this. What if it’s part of our ongoing growth? What if it’s required for transformation? What if it’s required to be able to deal with and process through and learn a new way of raising our awareness to where we get it? That we’re okay. No matter what we’re okay. And there’s a bigger context going on. So that for me is the first piece because that was, that was a bit of a struggle during that time. You know that, and I’ve had the same experience when I recently had some of what I thought was a very close friend, betray me in a huge, in public way, humiliating, all kinds of things. And it took me a bit. Name was the one going down. Remember you gotta feel what you’re feeling, you know? And I’m like, I don’t wanna freaking feel what I feel, but <laugh>,
Rev Aimee:
I just wanna kill ’em right now, now. Yeah. Right.
Rev Kathy:
But you know, I wanna punch somebody in a throat, but um, but actually moving through that awareness that that’s my human side and my human side needs, needs a voice. We don’t shut down any part of ourselves. We do learn to bring it forward in a more productive and more affirming and more life affirming way. Forgiveness also, I think is really critical to recognize that we’re not forgiving the behavior. We’re not making the behavior of whatever happened. Okay. We’re not saying you get to treat me like that. You know, I’m not worth it. So come and run over me. We’re not saying that at all. But what we are saying is that I refuse to drag this moldy energy around with me and let it continue to impact my relationships, to limit my ability to be whole and let my light shine. I refuse to let that mold be all over me. Instead. I’m going to release that and I’m going to see that you are a child of God, no matter what. And even though I don’t understand it, that’s fine. And I’m gonna own the fact that we are out of resonance and it’s not healthy for me to be around,
Rev Aimee:
But like feeding, we were talking, driving in about feeding, like resentment and hate like that energy of it. Like right now, that’s super popular about like to say, I hate something. There was a billboard that says I hate even singer, which neither of us know what that means, but it’s
Rev Kathy:
Probably something that young
Rev Aimee:
People we were talking about just like our words infuse our energy. So like we wanna be super careful with the word we choose. I try not to say, Hey, I say not my favorite, right? Because I just don’t wanna like you get that. I, I get an icky feeling when I say I hate yeah. You know, in my body.
Rev Kathy:
Well, and, and also too, to the healing point of it, if you’re living in a home that’s full of mold, you can’t be healthy. If we’re living in a space that’s constricted and not clean, we can get sick. If we are trying to heal something in our lives, whether it’s physical, mental, emotional, whatever it is. If we’re standing in a place of claiming healing as wholeness as our, as our natural way of being and returning to that state and we’re feeding any part of our, our world with, with this kind of, um, low vibrational moldy darkness, then how are we gonna be healthy? We don’t eat rotten food, but we often think rotten thoughts,
Rev Aimee:
But it’s not that we’re never gonna have ’em again, like sometimes you have a visceral reaction to something, cuz it puts a pushes a button from the past. And it’s like, just to do your work to not stay there. Like it doesn’t mean it’s not gonna happen. You just don’t choose to camp there and put your flag up and bringing it back to the question. Michael hap asked, we don’t wanna plant our flag again, whatever the thing is, we need to forgive, you know, we don’t wanna live there. We wanna say, okay, I still got some work to do here. Um, you know, let me, let me do it. Do we have any more questions online? Okay, Connie. Okay. So Connie, for those online Connie’s question is, let’s say you thought you healed something already and then it comes back up again and you’re experiencing a lot of things that you just thought you were done with, but they’re coming up again. What do you do to heal that and heal it permanently?
Rev Kathy:
So, um, I had the privilege of being mentored by Dr. Kathy Hern, um, in CSL during my time in school. And there’s a lot, um, there’s a lot in my history, in my growing up and in my physical world, in my conditioning and everything else that was less than authentic and less than stellar and less than healthy. And I had exactly that experience Connie, where I was constantly doing work on this to the point to where I would say I’m so sick of my story. I’m so freaking sick of my story. And at one point she said to me, I wanna remind you where you were this time two years ago. And what you tell me, what has changed since then. And I could see there had been lots of incremental change that had opened up a whole lot of other things and the, but this thing wasn’t over.
And even though I felt like it was, it wasn’t over, it was over in that phase. That phase of that was over, but there was more work to do. And at one point, um, this was near graduation and uh, <laugh> we were in this conversation and she said, here’s the good news. I was not having any good news that day. Really. I was really cranky about this whole thing and feeling really sad and like, I shouldn’t be graduating and I, you know, I’m not a minister and all this other stuff. And she said, the good news is now we’re at the sludge level way underneath that, what you thought was the ground level. And we’re cleaning out all the stuff that you’ve never been able to see. And I said, it feels like it’s gonna take a lifetime. Seems like it has. And she said, some things take more than one lifetime because this is soul work.
Rev Aimee:
That’s not that it answer you were looking for. This
Rev Kathy:
Is soul work. So if you hold that bigger context again, it can be irritating that we’re coming back to it. But don’t confuse growth pains with, with, with a slip backwards. I don’t know if that answers your question.
Rev Aimee:
Yeah. You know, that, that thing about like, maybe there’s something deeper I had. I’ve had something I’ve been working through and I didn’t really make the connection, but somebody, either Cathy or someone else asked me a question and I’m like, oh, that’s what it reminds me of. It, it reminded me of something with my parents because my parents, you know, talent of a bunch of kids, just a story here just to be clear. And they just were not very attentive to my brother and I it’s sort of a joke with us. He’s like, yeah, we were our each other’s parents. See, that’s why I’m still a kid. You know, that’s what he says. But like that inattentiveness and like the embarrassment of being like a teenage child whose parents were not paying attention to silly things. Like I outgrew my bra, I didn’t even know.
Okay. Like things like that or making sure that, you know, you’re going through the things that you need as you grow up, all those things, you know, no one was explaining them to me cuz my siblings, except my brother who wasn’t gonna be very helpful on girl stuff had already left home, but it’s like, you know, and, and I was never angry at my parents about, I don’t even know if I realized it till I was on this path for a while, but it’s like, oh, okay. You know, so that’s still, this issue touches that button that is still apparently there that I thought was gone. So I think it happens to everyone. You know, we all wanna, I was thinking about this meditating today or yesterday, I’m like, we all wanna push a button and have everything in life, magically change. Right. But that’s not life.
Right. But that’s like, we see that on TV. Oh, she meets the perfect person. She gets married, they get their dream job because they go to Starbucks and meet the CEO of the company. I mean, we see this kind of stuff. And then we think like things are supposed to be miraculous. But the deeper thing that is happening is that we are healing our spirit. It’s not about getting the stuff anyway. And that’s really what healing is about. Yeah. Oh, someone’s downstairs. Can someone go downstairs and we’re up? We got someone downstairs. Okay. No more questions on the chat. Somebody’s gotta bail us out. We gotta about five more minutes. Okay. Thank you, John. So,
Speaker 4:
Um, I feel like that
Rev Aimee:
It’s almost like flow or something. So for those online, John is saying that he came to Chicago and he didn’t really have a plan. He just sort of ended up here from California. And he’s just been reflecting on this. Like, was there a bigger plan, you know, and, and how life moves. Did I say
Rev Kathy:
That? Right. Well, I also heard you say that you feel like it was, it it’s a good thing that this is part of your life path. And you were wondering about that. Is that true? Always wonder, wondering about the path not taking
Rev Aimee:
As well. <laugh>
Yeah. I think that sometimes life does seem to be leading us and I always, it’s sort of like the flow you guys ever heard hear of this book, flow chicks and Maha chicks and Maha. He was at university of Chicago. He might have died recently, but his whole thing was about like being in the flow of life. And I feel like the things that are meant for us, the doors open and the things that are not meant for us, we couldn’t force that door open. And I’ve learned to trust that like if the door opens to, you know, to walk through it, but if it’s like, if I’m banging on that door and it just won’t open, I have to look at it and say, Hey, is this the door I’m supposed to open? Right.
Rev Kathy:
Yeah. And I also think that, um, I think there’s a whole lot of indicators that we get through our human senses that give us a sense of our intuition and God’s speaking to us in different ways. So I think that that is not only just when things are aligned and there are unicorns in my front yard and there are bunnies singing when I come out the door sounds beautiful. You know, it’s not always that sort of thing. It can frequently be when I’m experiencing some very strong discontent or some very strong longing for something to be different frequently. I think something outside me has to meet that need as opposed to remembering that if I have a longing or a discontent of some sort that’s guidance, that’s guidance instead of playing, why not? Why isn’t this happening? What if instead I play, what if, what if I were to do this?
What if I were to do that? I, I don’t really believe that there’s any wrong road. I believe that there are roads that are more arduous and roads that may be more painful and roads that may be more limiting. But I, I think that what our soul is here to do is accomplished in the life path that we’re, that we choose because I don’t think God goes uhoh they got away. Don’t know how, oh no. Oh no, no. Okay. Well now he’s in Chicago too bad because his whole destiny was here in California. You know, I, I just don’t think that that’s, it feels that way. It does feel that way at times, or it could, it can create a wondering, but I honestly believe that our souls are on purpose and we’re each on an individual growth path and we’re unfolding perfectly. And we may not get to see it in this lifetime.
It may be for something that we have, we may be healing something from our generational, um, past that we are healing for many people in our line. We, we don’t know. Amy said before that, why is a tough question? Because our intellect wants to get involved and understand, and therefore, you know, we can only understand what we can understand. Well, there was a time where people thought understanding meant the earth was flat, fully flat, always, you know, and that you’d fall off the edge if you took a boat and did that and all that kind of thing, we don’t know what we don’t know until we know it. And then we can’t unknow it. So why is a very low vibrational question? It’s not a higher vibrational question. If we get curious, we don’t need to know the why we need to know more about the, what, or what’s next or what’s possible,
Rev Aimee:
Or what’s speaking to me, what would I love as Mary Morrisey says? Yeah. What would
Rev Kathy:
I love?
Rev Aimee:
It’s really about resonance and noticing what’s resonating with you and noticing, you know, the times that like you have enthusiasm those times that like you can’t help, but like move towards something because it’s speaking to you. And then also noticing like when you have that feeling within yourself, which I can think of sometimes in my life, and I’ve said this before, where it was almost like someone put their hand on my chest invisibly and said, don’t go there. You know, just like in knowing like I am not to do this, or I am not to become more involved with this person or, you know, it’s just sort of like your intuition because you’re tapped into this energy also. And that’s what really Joel Goldsmith is teaching. Like, you are not separate from all of this. You are literally part of it. And we could argue it with quantum physics or many different spiritual paths, but we are part of this energy, which is creating our experience. And it’s so easy because of our upbringings to still think like, oh, it’s outside of me. I have to go find it. Instead of realizing it’s something in you that is wanting to express. And I’m looking at Greg and Paige over there, I think musicians are the great example of that. Like so often, great music comes from this place within them. That just wants to express. They are in that flow.
Rev Kathy:
I would agree. I think one of the best things that we can do for our own peace of mind and our own spiritual growth is start to get curious about how does spirits speak to us? How exactly am I guided? How does it feel in my physical body? How do I get ideas? What is what’s popping in for me? Do I see pictures? Do I hear words? Do I just, all of a sudden have a hunch? Do I get tingly? What happens? And the more curious we get about how we are uniquely wired and how the divine communicates with us in our own unique way, then we learn how to trust that experience. And it gives us something that’s a bit more tangible than hoping, you know,
Rev Aimee:
I like that because there’s more than one way, you know, for some people it might be, I’m gonna go take a walk in nature and step away from whatever this is. And then my clarity is gonna emerge later or I’m gonna go clean the garage because that’s the only thing I can do right now. Or I’m gonna sit down and draw it because my spirit speaks to me through art or writing. It’s different for everyone, but to give yourself permission to play mm-hmm <affirmative> right. To just really get to know yourself better because we’ve all, we’re all sort of undoing all the things that people have told us we should be in life.
Rev Kathy:
Yeah. I think the, I think the other thing that goes with that too, Amy, we were talking about in the car on the way here as well is the notion that healing does not always involve what we would think is a cure. So again, it comes back to that context. We’re holding. How big is our world? How big is our life? Yep. Judy, well, we should
Rev Aimee:
Say what the question is first. Oh yeah, go ahead. So the question is, you know, the healing, the science of healing and the lineage of a new thought. Um, the question from Judy was could you speak to that and the fact that people had personal healings? Well,
Rev Kathy:
I think that people are also always having personal healings. You know, I mean, sometimes nature is just running its course, and they’re not doing anything at all to affect that healing. Other times they’re very consciously putting themselves in touch with the infinite and following their intuition about where I should go next. What should I do next? And they’re visioning, you know, we talk in, in new thought, we talk about coming from a vision. We talk about being very crystal clear about what we’re claiming and bringing in and all of that. And that is, that is a part of affirmative prayer. It also comes from a recognition that if I don’t, if I’m not in harmony with what I’m looking for, I can’t get there. If you have a channel on a radio, an old school radio on the car, remember when we used to do like road trips and you get out in the middle of somewhere and then there’s no radio and there’s all that static that comes up.
And then you don’t have a station for a bit. You actually have to talk to each other. And then, then the radio comes back on, this is pre pre uh, satellite radio, right? But that static is because we’re out of the range and we don’t have access to that anymore. And the same thing happens with us, vibrationally. Everything is energy and, and the only thing quantum physicists and Newtonian PHY physicists agree on is that energy can’t be destroyed. It can only change form. So this means that the healing we’re looking for, the physical healing we’re looking for. If we are coming from a point of, I am whole and healthy, I am affirming the spiritual truth. That is existent. I’m just not in harmony with it yet. I’m not resonant with it yet. So I’m not trying to get Linda to give me healing. She may have tools that support me in my healing path, but the healing piece of it, I think is because it had such a physical, um, impact Judy, you know, people could see it. They, you know, like Charles Philmore and his leg growing and all the different pieces like that, that people can see it made it easier for them to begin to explore the idea of what, of, of healing in a variety of different ways. But we don’t for, we never force it. We have to align with and allow it that’s that flow state like you were talking about with John.
Rev Aimee:
And I also would add Judy, you know, I just putting all of this in context, the healers were like starting in the 1850s or sixties, the people who had the healings and think about it. Medicine at that time, me doctors were considered quacks until like a hundred years ago. Like during the Spanish flu doctors were considered quacks. And so people were more open to alternative healing in their own minds because we have made medicine a God, right? Like, you know, and a doctor, a God that the doctor is the authority over my body, instead of being open to the fact that we could heal it. Right?
Rev Kathy:
Yes. And now there’s so much more study that is, um, has gone into mind body medicine. And the technology has caught up with us to where we can actually map what’s happening in the body. So it’s like technology is now supporting the notion of the way we think influences our healing. What we focus on, influences our healing influences our health and they’ve got now science to back it up. So it’s like, I think Ernest Holmes said at one point, there will come a time when science and spirituality will merge. Right.
Rev Aimee:
Which is, I think time we are in
Rev Kathy:
Now in the beginning of that intersection, which is kind of exciting.
Rev Aimee:
Okay. So Connie stood up, which means it’s time to pray, which I actually knew that I was watching the clock just FYI. We just don’t have the big clock in front that scares you anymore. So Reverend Kathy is gonna do the honor of praying us out.
Rev Kathy:
So let’s just take a deep breath together and release it and notice how every part of our being is engaged in life. We are whole, we are human. We are spirit. We are intellect. We are physicality. We are emotionality. We are complex multifaceted beings, but at the root, at the core, the cause, and the support of all of it is that we are spiritual beings. Having a human experience. We are connected. And one with God and just like a wave in the ocean is not the whole of the ocean, but is holy ocean. We are not the whole of God, but we are, holy God, that’s all we could be made from.
So I just know that this continual exploration and how we expand and how we express and how we align with what is, and how do we bring harmony to our own inner worlds and express that outwardly is a continual unfolding. And just as our blood circulates, without our having to do anything, our continued unfolding in growth also unfolds. We get to participate, we have to participate, but we are not in charge of creating it all by ourselves. So what I know is that we remember we leave this place. We leave this time recognizing and remembering and acutely aware of the fact that where right, where we are, God is right where we are. God is, and we are always sourced. We are always resourced. We are eternally blessed and we are continuously growing, expanding, and healing. And it’s enough. We are enough and we are on purpose and we are guided.
And when we need additional support, we have community to support us in that way. So I just bless this time together. I bless all these questions. I bless all of the responses. I bless the continuing unfoldment of learning that happens even well beyond this time. And I bless Cityside as a community. This is an amazing, amazing heart centered place. So with deep, deep gratitude, knowing that all of this and something even better is unfolding for each and all of us. Now, I just say with deep gratitude and complete calm assurance all as well. And so it is, and so it is.
