If Not Now, When?9/15/2010 The Zen question of 'If not Now, When?' I interpret also as Can you be happy in the process?
It can be miserable, 'hard', if you havent surrendered to it.... if you are still caught in the what Eckhart Tolle calls the 'pain body'. It is that aspect of the analytical mind/ego that is still trying to control so it won't die. The attachment to the past as a definition of self and the attachment to the future as an addiction to fear or wishing keeps it alive and in control becuase it is trying to protect you and help you survive...though killing you slowly in the process. Be in the Now and just be happy with where you are knowing that you don't have to stay there. You can create yourself in the present constantly. -Trella

Here my observation on being/becoming "awake" and "aware": it means that you are now strong enough to take self-responsibility and make choices. It does not mean you are without your issues, lessons or "baggage". You're just able now to choose other than the automatic pilot of before.
I have come across folks who think that it is a grander thing to be awake and aware or that their way of processing or methods of self-awareness are somehow special, so to speak. Argh! I don't agree with that personally. I think that some folks don't need a spiritual practice to have self-awareness and some do. And whatever method to ending your madness works then that is the right method... for you. Awareness is a possibility for freedom from the traps of programming, stories, past-lives, etc. that may be limiting you in your choices for the present moment. So be aware and be awake, just consider that it is your right of passage and not a spiritual superiority club card or an instant pass to "I'm done with myself, so what about you?".

Here's a good one:
Love is the reality check against judgement. With love there is a way to loosen up the judgement to see what is underneath thats been un-owned or not taking responsible for within yourself. -Trella

The Beauty of a Sorry5/16/2010 A beauty of apologizing to another is you get to accept yourself at where you are and acknowledge what you want to become. Its like forgiving yourself when offering a sorry.

Self Pity / Self Protection5/11/2010 Self pity is a very dangerous energy becuase it opens you up to ANY choice and self protection can easily slip into self enhancement without the grace of humility.
