Will Hard Work Save the Economy?
Any circumstance, no matter how difficult, provides an opportunity for us to choose who we want to ‘be’ in response to that condition. Difficult challenges, even extreme challenges, provide an opportunity for the virtues of patience, humility, compassion, and courage to shine through. The soul, which is alive in the Heart of every human being, has an opportunity to shine in challenging circumstances, including extreme work conditions.

a poem by Mahi
Free falling
i am consumed by heart's gravity.
Guarding against
putting up my guard
dissolved
I burst forth into infinite form...
what from a distance
sounded like silence
Drawing closer
I hear a heart beat
closer still
only laughter...

The Greatest Feeling In the World, Part VI
AWARENESS allows a person to understand themselves and to understand others. This AWARENESS allows us to even forgive those who have hurt us because we realize that those who intentionally hurt others are living with an internal hell themselves in which they feel like others are attacking them.

The Greatest Feeling In the World, Part IV
In the core of each individual lives the TRUE Self. This Self lives in the Heart and feels at peace. In some cultures this core part of the self is called The Being in the Heart. This is our true Being.
In this place, deep within, we feel at peace with others…. even others who appear to be enemies. The Being in the Heart feels total bliss, total love. Some even describe this feeling as ECSTASY. It is an ecstasy, a feeling of bliss even greater than what can be felt through drugs, and there are no hangovers or negative side effects.
