All the perfect thoughts and words in the world will not make a dime's difference in our life until they are walking with us, alive, without thought or effort on our part. It's like breathing, we don't think about it, we breathe.
Until we do not, say, admonish others or even silently remind ourself not to talk about or judge or pity without empathy, we are not breathing our spiritual life, we're talking it.
There it is, the birth of a self-determined objective, a want-to. Which is not all bad, no doubt begun by heading us in the right direction, but as a want-to, it is a don't-have-yet...an objective, and we are stuck up in our head.
Just because we know truth doesn't mean we own truth. It must make its journey from our head, detour around our mouth, and slowly make its way into our heart where it is transmuted from words into actions, and our Soul is a tish freer from self.
It's a slow process, this learning how to follow the Leader. Just remembering that we are not the Leader is the essential and at the same time bare beginning. That's probably why all our thoughts and words that don't make a dime's difference are priceless when our thoughts and words come from the Leader within.
Thank you.
