Image 036 (Page 11a – top) … A drawing of an 8-pointed Sun – symbolizing the<br />

Truth that real Abundance can only be found in creatively acting in a way that<br />

enhances the Universe‘s greatest creation: Life itself …<br />

CREATION: Creativity is my art of Feeling the energies around me and capturing that Feeling in<br />

vision &/or word … My Flow-Feel is keen … My Wonder-Vision is vivid … I am bold and portray what<br />

I Feel: the Spirit‘s Powers, Vortex-Magicks and Wonders – I dance with them all in color, word, and<br />

tone … I hone them gently that all may Know their Majesties.<br />

True boldness has nothing to do with recklessness or bravado, and little to do with standard<br />

understandings of ―bravery‖. True boldness has the Courage to humbly See the interconnectedness<br />

between one's Self and one's enemy. True boldness comes when one has the Courage to abandon<br />

temptations to attack or defend in favor of offering a gentle word or a Kind deed.<br />

Image 037 (Page 11a – bottom) … Here, a YinYang – symbolizing the Truth that<br />

there is deep meaning in every Victory, and potent growth in every Defeat; that<br />

there is no such thing as a moment or a happenstance that is ―bad‖ – just as there<br />

is no such thing as a person who is ―evil‖ … Good is always there to be see – and<br />

if not seen, co-created …<br />

GROWTH: My Growth is felt – a daily evolution towards my Highest Good … My physical body<br />

is cared for, heals well, and is progressively fitter. My mind‘s Openness and capacity for Understanding<br />

is continually expanded through exposure to new ideas and beliefs … My Spirit grows as I am ever more<br />

Aware of my Now, my Here, and my Connection with all corners of the Cosmos … I walk tall in body,<br />

my mind walks taller with Compassion, and my Spirit is above and ever-upward.<br />

Walking ―tall in body‖ requires engaging deeds that are true to your True Self; a being that<br />

yearns to further the harmony of all around him. Being ―tall in mind‖ requires having the humility<br />

to set aside all personal beliefs & analyses and Seeing all others as Brothers & Sisters; each one an<br />

equally worthy facet of the Divine. When these are done simultaneously, a person chooses to<br />

powerfully exude his ―Tall Soul‖.<br />
