If you're not going to have humor in your marriage, I suggest you reexamine your relationship because very few things on this planet can last without humor. Humor is often the only release from tension that cannot be resolved intellectually.

You married because your lover was more clearly manifesting to you your own radiant form of God. It's when your lover starts clouding that up that you start yelling and pushing: "Let go. Show me that God-form again."

What does a Soul look like? It could look like a purple ball or a white or gold one. It could look like the picture of a master, a picture of Jesus or Buddha or Krishna. As you put that image in front of you, it can start erasing the energy from the lower wishful thinking that you have created (like the ones for the new car, the great sex life, the money, etc.). You can program out the lower desires and start placing higher ideals in front of you. Your mechanisms for success will start pulling you right into the ideal. You can just assume you're going to reach it - because if that's what you keep in front of you, you will.

We have a duty and a responsibility to the people who are older than we are. We can respect their wisdom and their longevity. The Bible says to honor thy father and mother that your days may be long upon this plane. It means more than the father and mother of your flesh and blood; it means people older than you. We respect them for their experience. Maybe they don't have all the wisdom in the world, but they have had experience that is valid. You can tap that experiential level in them and draw it forward, and that can become your experience also. You can experience it through them. It is the same as if you went out and did it. There is little difference because the experience is the same inside of you. This is tremendously valuable, if you use it.

When you go to see the Soul, you mostly see your thoughts and nothing else. So you say, "There's nothing else. If there were, I would be able to see it." You can't see the Soul's existence because it is wrapped up in you. Your Soul is what keeps you alive, not your mind. The mind, as strong as it seems, is not always to be trusted. The Soul is solid ground. On the level of Soul, you don't grab. You can't possess, and you can't hold on to anything. Whatever you try to possess, you lose. You can't even possess your own body. But if you love yourself, if you love the Soul within, you have access to all things.

The evidence is, you're here now. And this is a place of protection. This is a place where all Souls are embraced, held like a babe in the arms that is newly born and welcomed as the Promised One, the One who God has spoken of through all time.

Have you ever noticed that you can be feeling really bad, unhappy, like no one cares about you, and then someone comes up to you and gives you a compliment or gives you a hug and says, "I sure do love you," and all of a sudden, your unhappiness just vanishes? All of a sudden, people are good again and you feel good about yourself and everything seems to be just fine. What happened? Probably, you moved from separation to connection or to a feeling of oneness. That shift is powerful. It reflects a choice. At any moment, we can choose separation or we can choose connection. Later on I realized that as powerful as this choice is on the physical level, it is much more powerful on the spiritual level.

Sometimes you may get up in the morning and be so positive in your mind and so dynamic in your emotions that you feel as if you can accomplish anything that day. That night, however, you may go to bed feeling as if you have been dragged through a knothole. You say, "How can I get up tomorrow when I'm so dead tired tonight? And why do I feel so tired when I woke up this morning feeling so good?" It can be because you have been giving forth of your spiritual energy. But you'll also find that you can recharge yourself rapidly.

Spiritual exercises are a process. They are a process of asking for God's presence and when you ask, the prayer is answered.

Your questions, your doubts, and your fears are not living love. Do everything in God's name, and you will be walking straight toward God.
