It is a matter of no little consequence to acknowledge that mankind, in company with all other animate creatures and the whole of nature, is not “a fortuitous concurrence of atoms.”(1) Quite the opposite in fact, for such concurrence is governed by the immutable laws of nature; those of perfect harmony. Were such a pristine state to obtain in our own life and in that of all mankind, ‘twould be life lived by the golden rule.
Such not being the case, however, it is incumbent upon each one of us to reclaim the goodness and the love lost through life’s many travails, and to share a new-found sense of well-being with others. It but requires an awareness of our present state, together with a sincere desire to change.
We begin our journey by refusing to allow mundane thoughts to linger in our mind, instead replacing them with thoughts of self-love, all the while looking for the good in others. It is a wondrously transformative experience: one that reacquaints us with our own divine spirituality.

“reclaim the goodness and the love lost… awareness of our present state, together with a sincere desire to change.”
My dear friend and I met to share ‘ins-and-outs’ of her past week. Having just returned from a Residential School conference, she shared a lot. She is very aware that she has moved forward with her life. There was JOY in her heart as she greeted and hugged friends from the past. Anchored in faith and armed with spiritual tools she is a foundational rock for friends and family. With her sincere desire to change she reclaims the goodness and the love lost. blw
