How do you measure and define success? A Unique Perspective

How do you measure and define success? Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, Jesus, and on and on and on, I call out to Jesus, the only name I could think of who, perhaps, could help my troubled mind and tormented soul. The year is 2,000; I am homeless on Kaua’i, my aging mother is in a local care home, and I am her official guardian.

It's a Great Enigma that many of us, for one reason or another, forsake the Essence of this precious Journey. In this tragic tendency we walk through life Impoverished, dishonoring our Spirit and the incredible Existence we are Given. The elegant Truth is this earthly Journey is truly Sublime, and Life will break us Open and coerce us in scrupulous ways for the sole Purpose of our Awakening.

The expansiveness of our Existence flows through our tiny Being of Heart and we experience Everything deeply as our sense of I and Another isn't quite formed.
