Friday, March 14, 2014 You are reading from the book Each Day a New Beginning The child is an almost universal symbol for the souls transformation. The child is whole, not yet divided . . . when we would heal the mind . . . we ask this child to speak to us. —Susan Griffin Was there ever a time when we did not feel divided from ourselves? Occasionally we get a glimpse of what such spiritual wholeness would be like, but most of the time we struggle with feelings of conflict, unevenness, a divided heart. Perhaps the child is a metaphor for a spiritual guide, like our own higher power, that can help us in our journey toward self-acceptance. I may not be perfect, but parts of me are excellent, writes author Ashleigh Brilliant. If we can be happy with this proud, funny boast then perhaps we can stop berating ourselves for our imperfections. If we dwell on our own contradictory impulses we give them too much importance, too much power. Let me trust to my glimpses of harmony and wholeness and be grateful for the richness of my spirit.
