True, that all of the relative waves within us that we co-create and uphold are not all sweetness and light, however there is a great sense of integrity and ongoing challenge to openly recognize and compassionately respond to negativity in our environment; responding to this world as if it is our own. Moreover, what a pure sweet joy it is when we encounter something as pure as a baby, or as perfect as my friend's newly occupied house (with a South facing entrance), and then our hearts and minds soar in the confident and strong support of such a thing. Just as we do our work daily with negative energies in our world, that very work gives us the right and the ability to strongly uphold positivity as well. ------------------------ Yahoo!
