Take awareness of your energetic connection with all

"Nothing can cure the soul but the senses, just as nothing can cure the senses but the soul" ~Oscar Wilde

Many believe that spirituality and sensuality should to be isolated from each other and that we must detach from our bodies in order to grow internally, but a truly sensual attitude brings one into harmony with the ebb and flow of nature. When we fully utilize our five senses we are able to integrate more completely with our environment and truly savor the incredible wonder and complexity of life. Applying mindfullness to our sensual nature leads to the physical awareness of our energetic connection with all.

We have to stand firm

"As a camel beareth labour, and heat, and hunger, and thirst, through deserts of sand, and fainteth not; so the fortitude of a man shall sustain him through all perils" ~Akhenaton

Acting with bravery in a situation is an offshoot of living a life of courage, or fortitude. Many live their lives where "feeling good" is the ultimate goal. Such a life does not require fortitude. A truly meaningful life contains both the knowledge of and commitment to the greatest good, which is to be able to love another as yourself. When we can integrate the Divine's love fully into ourselves, we can share it with others and defend it with fortitude.
