Stories and the Actions that Follow

With all the divisiveness and unusual happenings occurring around us in recent times, I often wonder how to affect change or make a contribution.  It occurred to me to start right here where I am.  This idea showed up.

“The most dangerous weapon we possess are the stories we play in our minds which propel our actions.”

Who knew stories were so compelling? Sometimes, it gets amusing and sometimes NOT, how many stories I become aware of and live from.  Fasting from sugars and starches may be rewarding to our physical bodies but  I’m finding that fasting from my stories are introducing me to things I never knew existed, for me.  From this awareness, our every action becomes a contribution.  The best we can do with our humanity is to give it a try.  Sometimes we can do it and sometimes we can’t.  Again, we meet our humanness around every corner.
