HILLIGraphy - Seeds for the Soul


Some HILLIGraphy for you as food for thought:

Because it desperately needs to perceive separation, the ego has a very limited capacity to love.

For this very same reason, however, it also has a very great capacity to be afraid.

If the ego is involved, then the love around it is always conditional.

We can't unconditionally love anyone we either need or resist.

We should sing with them...not cling to them.

From the book Seeds for the Soul by Chuck Hillig

HILLIGraphy - Seeds for the Soul

Another page from Chuck Hillig's Seeds for the Soul:

Don't rescue anyone by trying to do their inner work for them.

You'll only be discounting their strength and discouraging them from developing their own untapped resources

Instead, give yourself permission to allow them to completely and totally fail...if failing seems to be what's on their path.

If you keep handing someone a crutch, they'll surely learn how to limp.

HILLIGraphy - Seeds for the Soul

Periodically, I will be posting pages from Chuck Hillig's wonderfully insightful book, "Seeds for the Soul." Here's the first of many that I will introduce you to:

Your feelings are not problems to be solved, obstacles to be overcome or difficulties to be denied.

They're only passing phenomena on your path that are inviting you to experience them fully.

But don't turn down their invitation. If you won't let them be as they are, the won't let you be as you are.

For example, if you ignore you feelings when they show up for you on the doorstep of your heart, they'll surely hassle you for your lack of respect.

They'll disappear into your unconscious for a while, but when they come back to you...and they will... they'll be brininging some friends!!!

He has a way of gently and playfully nudging you into your thinking zone. :-)
