Freedom - its condition: always put the spirit in first place

03/24/2004

Whatever happens to you, do not become troubled or discouraged, but see to it that your spirit gradually regains control of the situation. In this way you will discover true freedom, because the spirit soars high over events, and it alone is truly free. When you restore the spirit to its place within you, something tells you that these difficulties or irritations cannot destroy your balance, your peace or your love. On the contrary. Since these illuminating experiences have taught you values you can count on, cling to them. Do not doubt the beautiful and great things you have lived, but take them along with you as provisions on this difficult path you must travel. And when the storm has passed, you will realise that what might have caused you to lose heart has actually strengthened you.
