Margaret Wheatly: “We’re old enough to know that life will keep interrupting our plans and surprise us at every turn of the way. It helps to notice this wisdom that we’ve been forced to acquire. Surprise is less traumatic once we accept it as a fact of life.”

At this stage of my life, I find the above rather cynical. I believe that I made a contract with God before I entered into this life. I believe I received everything needed to explore what it is to be made to the image and likeness of God.

Perhaps Wheatly was referring to humans relying only on their five senses. I prefer what Gary Zukov wrote about multisensory humans

Or what Martha Beck wrote about attachment: “As you drop your mental stories and watch your own feelings, you’ll notice that the gripping desperation of attachment is something you can release.”

For me the best comes from “Zero Limits”: “Dr Han Lew’s work teaches us to let go and trust the divine while consistently cleaning all thoughts and experiences that surface in the way of hearing the divine. By this continuous work, we can clear the weeds of programs so we can better handle life with ease and grace.”

Indeed with Ho’oponopono my life recently has been lived with less struggle and more ease and grace. But I have had to be very patient. So hard to wait to be inspired by God; I would have preferred to react and fix things ASAP.
