Guest guest Posted November 2, 2009 Report Posted November 2, 2009 Hi David, thank you for writing this. This is exactly how I operate and you have explained it in a such a lovely and clear manner.. " There's a part of me that's sometimes very Taoist. I feel that a task > in the outer world should flow smoothly and harmoniously, if I am in the > right place inwardly. If it doesn't, I try to look at what I can tweak, > change, or release in my inner world to align myself with the energy > forces flowing around me and to surf with them rather than to struggle > against them. " and these following lines.. haha.. I also relate to being a little wordy... " I'm pretty darn wordy for a Taoist! Warren said all this in just a few > simple words when he said the Divine will guide your heart to the right > place. > " love Bruce , " djgottlieb " <dgottlieb wrote: > > > Danielle, > > I bow to your courage and faith.
