A little misery is a great reminder to reconnect with the WAY

It was August 2nd; the Boston sky was dark and mysterious looking, even though they predicted a sunny afternoon. Supposedly this was the eve of a New Moon in Leo which is supposed to make us bold, but I could only feel fear that instant. So I sat down and decided to re-read the highlighted sections of the Course in Miracles cover to cover. How straight-forward its main finding is: discover the purpose of every situation you are in and then choose GOD over ego. Do that over and over again until you realize that you already are HOME!

As I was standing by the pool later that evening observing the sun penetrating the cool and sparkly water, l could feel the serenity of the moment. Strange, had it not been for the roller-coaster of emotions that day, this straight-forward insight wouldn't have stuck the way it did. It was then that I realized, a little misery is a great reminder to reconnect with the WAY.
