7) The Rainstorm Flashcards
🎁darkness
No matter what, you must let your inner light guide you out of the darkness.
What is meant by:
I will never find the light unless, like the candle, I am my own fuel, consuming myself.
Take my healing into my own hands and discover my truth. I must be self fuelled.
We are always in a process of becoming and nothing is fixed.
How am I able to flow in the total openness of the living moment?
But having no rigid system within me, I’ll be flexible to change with the ever changing.
What is faith and what does it do?
Faith is believing or trusting (my intuition).
Intuition is the language of the soul. It points us to our heart’s expression. It’s that sensation or signal given to explore or follow something even when there is no logic to it. This is my inner light, leading me through darkness.
Faith maintains the soul.
How can I develop my faith (as it is a state of mind that can be conditioned)?
Affirmations. Decide to develop it by reminding myself daily that I am going to have faith in myself.
Believe that by engaging fully in the experiment of life, I will come to find my way out of the storm and into my blooming.

“My wish for you is to hold enthusiasm in your heart.”
Enthusiasm is God. Why?
Enthusiasm is the by-product of conscious growth and healing.
Being enthusiastic = inspired by life. In joy.
It is this great creative and spiritual force within me. That enthusiasm is me. Mine to direct and grow and create. My potential waiting for discovery.
What should I do if true confidence is lacking me in this moment?
Let curiosity give way to enthusiasm. For it will naturally translate into a desire for engagement & play.
That desire will lead to action.
Action to aliveness.
Aliveness to profound joy and confidence.
