InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

June 13, 2023

The focus for today is:

I choose to make a fulfilling contribution to the whole.

The author of today's inspirational text is Shavasti, also known as John Payne:

Peace will come to us all when we have the courage to recognize that we ourselves will never be at peace individually or collectively until our sworn enemies are likewise at peace. 

We insist on separation, we insist that others are living in darkness. However, the inclusive nature of your soul, of our soul and of the soul of humanity will not allow us to do that and therefore we carry the burden of guilt, for it is impossible to cut off one leg and for the other leg not to notice it. 

As we seek personal fulfilment and healing, we must recognize that as individual as we may experience ourselves to be, we in fact live in a collective field of consciousness in which we are wanting to unfold the truth of our own inner light in order to make a fulfilling contribution to the whole.

This is Marie T. Russell, publisher of InnerSelf.com, wishing you a day of choosing to make a fulfilling contribution (today and every day)

Comment from Marie:
I see us all as pieces in a gigantic puzzle. And just as a puzzle is not complete without every single piece, so the puzzle of life on earth is incomplete without you contributing your true self, and everyone of us contributing our true selves. You are unique, we are all unique, and we are all needed!

Our focus for today: I choose to make a fulfilling contribution to the whole.
