Seed: Big Dreams

Do you subscribe to Mike Dooley’s Notes from the Universe? If not, consider it. His weekday emails are pithy and hilarious. You can do so by clicking here: www.tut.com (It stands for Totally Unique Thoughts.)

Anyway, he’s a HUGE proponent of Big Dreams. Dreams, of course, for our lives, come in all sizes and shapes. It doesn’t matter how big or small they are—they’re still dreams, our dreams, and that’s all that matters really.

Writing in the September 2007 Science of Mind Magazine, Tama J. Kieves writes, “Big dreams deserve big love.” That sentence gave me pause. Big pause. Are you gifting your dreams no matter how big or small with big love?

I am. Now. But I wasn’t when I read that sentence. Think on it. It’s the same feeling that takes over when one first falls in love. Everything exists in relation to that beloved. Everything. Sometimes big dreams come true faster when we enlarge our hearts to receive them.

Working Miracles

Seed: Working Miracles

Rev. Ron Fox wrote the Daily Guides in Science of Mind Magazine for December 2007. In one of them, he said, “Jesus didn’t call his miracles miracles; he called them his work.” It made me think about being a miracle worker.

Are you one? Annie Sullivan was. She’s the woman who taught Helen Keller to speak. And she too thought it was her work.

Could your work be miracle work and is it possible that you don’t even know it?

When I sit in session with a client, I don’t really intend miracles, but miracles definitely happen. I too think of it as simply my work.

Maybe we’re all miracle workers just doing the work that is ours to do? If that’s the case, then no wonder miracles happen.

Ultimate Concern

Seeds X, 17

Seed: Ultimate Concern

Margaret Storz, writing in Science of Mind Magazine, suggested Ultimate Concern as a name for Divinity. She also suggested Prime Value. Betty Conrad Adam calls her Divinity the Mysterious More. A beloved friend is happiest with the All In All. I call my god Mom or Mary Mags.

You know I think of God as the biggest diamond in the world, the diamond with the most facets through which light can pour. Each facet has a name. One is named Susan Corso. One is named your name. Each facet also has a divine name. There are as many facets as there are names, and as many names as there are facets.

I like Ultimate Concern for one of those names. Ultimate means last. The bottomline place. The end of the line. The final final. The other thing about this name for god is I know that I hold a prime value to the Ultimate Concern. I can bring Her anything, and She’ll help me deal with is, just like a good mother.

What’s your favorite name for Divinity?

An Alphabet of Gratitude

Seeds X, 3

Seed: An Alphabet of Gratitude

If you’ve done any spiritual reading, one of the pillars of spiritual practice is the practice of gratitude. When you’re stuck, when you’re scared, when you’re mad, the teachers routinely say, “Practice gratitude.” What if you don’t feel grateful? Do it anyway.

Rev. Jane Beach, writing in Science of Mind magazine, makes a suggestion that formats gratitude into twenty-six tiny bites (at least if you’re speaking English). Create an alphabet of gratitude. Try it. It’s fun and it makes you think about what you’re grateful for.

Here are some of mine: A is for the Apple that I had for dinner last night and I’m grateful, B is for the Blow Dryer that helped me not walk around with wet hair for hours today, let’s skip a few, shall we? G is for God herself in my life, H is for Holly, the lady upstairs who took over a task in the building. Q is for my friend Queen Mama Donna and her healing, R is for Rev. Jane Beach who shared this marvelous idea..

There’s a story told about a child kneeling in prayer at bedtime. The child’s mother hears, “A, B, C,” all the way through the alphabet. After “amen,” she asks, “What are you doing, sweetie?” The child replies, “Oh, I just pray the alphabet and let God put the words together.”
