It has been a very interesting and BUSY month. I've learned far more about what it takes to really work with others in less than three months this year than I learned in the nearly 39 years preceeding it. I am NOT kidding! It is interesting that my paid job as a System Integrator working in support of the Air Force is providing me with INTENSIVE training in the areas that will be essential for carrying out the work that SPIRIT moves me to do. Literally I am personally integrating my own abilities in a manner that allows me to fully live up to the principle of "BE in this world, but NOT of this world". My real HOME is spirit. This WORLD is simply my playground, and my WORK WORLD is simply the playground in which I do my paid work. I'm busier than I have ever been in my life, literally by an order of magnitude. Yet, I am more satisfied, more fulfilled, and literally more involved and in LOVE with LIFE than I have ever experienced before.
Yesterday at lunch, spirit sent me a present wrapped in a fortune cookie:
AND TALENT DOES WHAT IT CAN |
By this definition, there is no doubt about it, I AM a GENIUS. That's what BEYOND IMAGINATION is all about, doing WHAT I MUST to SERVE SPIRIT.
I find it humorous that this is paralleled in the way that I do my paid work as well. I DO WHAT I MUST, not because I am tasked by anyone to do it, rather because I KNOW that it needs to be done and I am the right person to do it. It is not simply that I can do it ... it is that I MUST do it. There is all the difference in the world.
I have said elsewhere that Spirit is a Slavedriver.
However, one of my favorite quotes is:
imagination nor both together go to the making of genius. Love, love, love, that is the soul of genius.

INDEED, it is LOVE that makes ALL THE DIFFERENCE. Whatever YOU are moved to do, DO IT WITH LOVE!!!!!
