Hello Dear Ones,
My good role model, Walter Russell, was a scientist and philosopher and the founder of the University of Science of Philosophy. I am a student of the University and much of my growth has been due to their examples, even though they long past on to greener pastures; their lessons, books and courses are continuing to refresh my spirit.
One of their beliefs is that the Receiving can only take place at the moment of Giving. There is no such thing as “taking” – the “give and take” as we know it completely defies universal laws. There is only GIVING.
Interestingly enough, if you look at Mother Nature and her principles, we see this concept at work all the time in all places, without exception. The soil gives moisture to the sky and in turn the sky forms clouds which give back to Mother Nature in form of rainwater. And the effects of this giving and re-giving touch every being on this planet and beyond. The cycle never ends and the more giving that takes place, the more re-giving can take place.
When it comes to humanity, relationships and our weight, however, we somehow haven’t quite figured this out yet. We withhold our love from the ones we love because of some nonsense that lurks in our heads, and we withhold food from our bodies because we somehow punish it for the creepiness that we listen to (starve yourself, eat less, count calories). And yet Mother Nature, no matter how long it takes her, will make sure that balance reigns, even when it hurts us she gently yet steadily holds the balancing stick to all that is. And humanity continues to suffer the consequences of our disobedience and it shows in our lack of health and the whopping 84% divorce rate for third marriages (if we didn’t do it right the first time, what makes us think that it will be better the second or third time around unless we KNOW exactly where to break that link?).
What is balance and how does it apply to our health, weight and our relationships?
Think about it, I would love to read your comment here…
Much love to everyone!
