From Adam — “The parts of us that are one with each other. This quote below, I believe, was meant to apply to romantic love. But I have come to believe it can apply to people in general when they are in communion with each other.
“I honour the place in you in which the entire universe dwells. I honour the place in you which is of Love, of Truth, of Light, and of Peace. When you are in that place in you and I am in that place in me, We are One.” -Ancient Sanskrit Blessing the World

From Adam —- “I’ve heard this called “being in alignment” before. Didn’t think of it as aligning my ego with my higher power but totally makes sense. I can’t think of specifics but every time I’m kind or compassionate, I’m in alignment. On my recent trip, I always tipped 20-30%. People work hard and many service staff struggles to make ends meet.”

What prejudices do you hold or had held about a power greater than oneself, i.e., an HP?

“My prejudices of my higher power are anything Christian-based and are inextricably linked to modern Christian thinking. I do not agree with much of it. So this makes it extremely difficult to navigate terminology such as faith, God, and prayer. But I have to define what these mean for me and often use different terms that do not have the same connotations for me.” – Adam
