The universe is buzzing with energy—an abundance of energy at our disposal whenever we decide to open ourselves to it. In order to become free of the ways we stop the flow of this energy, we need to understand our unique nature.

Our unique nature reveals itself in countless ways: through our life story, through meditation, through dreams and images, through delving into personal archetypes, through various therapies that help us untangle the knots that prevent the free-flow of our God-given talents. Over time and bit by bit we discover that our inner most essence is love.

"It is my nature that makes me love you often, for I am love itself.
It is my longing that makes me love you intensely,
For I yearn to be loved from the heart.
It is my eternity that makes me love you long,
For I have no end."

—Mechtild of Magdeburg

Each one of us has a special gift to offer the world. Sometimes there are several gifts and you have to choose, or you have to understand how they might work together to serve you. Sometimes you have to go on a treasure hunt to find all the clues to help you unearth your abilities, or to find out how to use the ones you recognize.

With your guides forever present, you have to go through the brambles, down into the cave, through the dark. You have to encounter the demons, and then comes the light. This search is sometimes called the hero or heroine’s journey.

"God picks up the reed-flute world and blows. Each note is a need
coming through one of us, a passion, a longing-pain…
Let everyone climb on their roofs and sing their notes! Sing loud!"

--Rumi
