All of us could benefit from realizing that our paradigms are limited.

The very things that you're scared to go explore are probably waiting for you....that you're scared to go explore are probably waiting for you....that you're scared to go explore are probably waiting for you....that you're scared to go explore are probably waiting for you....that you're scared to go explore are probably waiting for you....

If you are going through a hard time and believe you are meant to do it yourself, you may very well be a victim of one of the great misperceptions of the New Age movement.

You were never meant to heal yourself by yourself or improve yourself by yourself.

You are here to transform, but it's part of a process of "us". You are not meant to, and were never meant to, do it alone....

There is innate trust that you can gain in your system. We could all benefit from listening to the organic, biological body wisdom. It could help us in our relationship to ourselves, to other people, and to the environment.

It's time to merge our perspective with that of other peoples, especially those whose world we see as having nothing to do with ours. How we see the world will be affected, no doubt. We won't be seeing things through one set of eyes, or one world view. Our vision will change. It might be more complex, not always comforting,not always simple.

But we might become just a bit more lucid. We might just find that we are caring for one another just a little more. In a humble but real way we might find that we are adding just a bit more relief to one another in these troubled times.—Azriel Cohen
