Each of us is different…..many paths and many processes.
No need to judge our path, process or practice.
Each one designed uniquely for us.
How amazing life is, filled with an infinite number of options……
Opportunities to explore and find our way to peace and love and joy.
Wherever we go and whatever we do, whether alone or together, we are always choosing our own way. No one can tell another, for we only can come to fully know and guide ourselves.
“To Thine own self be true.” is a humbling life work.
It may take a lifetime simply to know fully love ourselves.
For those who seek union with another, begin within to listen, to truly see and know yourself.
Then fall in Love with the gift of You. And to thine own self…always be true.
Loving you,
Betty Lue
