3) So I've now read the first book in the "Conversations with God" series.
Opinion?
If reading "Life and How to Survive it" at the age of 19 was like being given permission to be myself, like receiving validation that the way my mind worked was not only OK but actually pretty groovy, then reading CwG at the age of 33 was like coming home.
I recognise the world its describing. I know that world. It’s not a stretch. It’s what feels right.
I’m currently reading “Anatomy of the Spirit” by Caroline Myss (which was given to me by my Honey). Feels like I’ve found a teacher…
2) Communication skills… I’m still not terribly objective. Get a little too far into my own groove to really be able to properly share this stuff. I’m sure it’ll mature with time.
1) Grace? Have I developed grace, you say? I’ve certainly managed to find a bit more than I had. We'll call it a work in progress.
Well, moving on, the reason I’m writing just now is to share something I found using one of my favourite games.
To play this game think of something you want an answer to, choose a book which you love, and which loves you, and open it randomly. Point to a random place on said page, and read.
Or get someone you love to say “when” in order to pick the page and the place on said page.
I played this with my Honey last night over the phone.
The book was “Advanced Banter, the QI Book of Quotations” by Johns Lloyd and Mitchinson. Page 100.
Subject: Encouragement.
The finest gift you can give anyone is encouragement. Yet, almost no one gets the encouragement they need to grow to their full potential. If everyone received the encouragement they need to grow, the genius in most everyone would blossom and the world would produce abundance beyond our wildest dreams.

I would lose the word "most", but other than that, that’s what I was trying the say in “The Big number 2”.
It’s what I believe to be true.
I also believe it's both completely possible and absolutely wonderful.
And believing that it’s not only true, but also both possible and wonderful, I really can’t help but dedicate myself to making it so.
And I’ll do it by being totally myself. In all my grandness and foolishness. Because by being both as grand and foolish as your soul can reach, you give other people permission to do the same.
You got something better to be than yourself?
Love you Guys.
