My Face is Real. Yours Is. Episode 383
We have choices to make in how we relate to one another. We can relate from something real in us, and choose to treat the others we are with as real. Or we can retreat into a 'hall of mirrors' when we relate to one another from the more protective patterns in us.
Much becomes possible when we find a way to be real, to 'wake to each other' as we're invited to do by M C Richards in this week's source. A conversation about generosity, curiosity, courage and contactfulness - all qualities of great value in the world right now.
A conversation about meaning, purpose, and the experience of life, with Lizzie Winn and Justin Wise of Thirdspace.

Here’s our source for this week:
My Face is Real. Yours is.
“An act of the self, that’s what one must make. An act of the self, from me to you. From center to center. We must mean what we say, from our innermost heart to the outermost galaxy. Otherwise we are lost and dizzy in a maze of reflections. We carry light within us - there is no need merely to reflect. Others carry light within them. These lights must wake to each other. My face is real. Yours is. Let us find our way to our initiative.”
M C Richards, from ‘Centering’
