April 25, 2021

People are complex.  Each of us is complex – unique in our experience, particularly in our intuitions and in our dreams.  Our conscious selves are complex, but our whole selves are vastly more so.  Each of us is like a suite of six best, most intimate friends living together.  First, besides the conscious self, there is the autonomic nervous system, which keeps to itself but can’t be ignored because it keeps the lights on and the refrigerator stocked: it sustains Life – and can override the other roommates’ wishes.

More directly contributing to the conscious self’s perceptions and growth are four other roommates: the unconscious mind, memory, creativity, and that part of a holy Spirit – which may be no more and no less than Love – which is within every human being.  These four best, most intimate friends guide us, through our intuition and dreams, to healing, peace, and growth.

Whether and how we seek, pay attention to, apply, and share that guidance is our God-given right – and responsibility.
