It’s an excellent message for all of us to remember because maybe we’re in a position where light seems to be shining on us, or we’re chasing others who we think have light shining on them. We need to remember that the light is within us, so we don’t need to ever worry about losing it or needing to chase it—it’s already here. We just need to find it within and let it shine. JC |

I’ve noticed how many of these steps are applicable outside of fighting an addiction. For the last week, anytime I’ve been in the car with Roman, I’ve had George Mumford’s Unlocked playing on Spotify; I’m determined to help the boys master their minds and begin to see the benefits of meditation.

“If you bring forth what is within you, what you have will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not have within you will kill you." -Jesus, Verse 70, Gospel of Thomas Allow me to share my interpretation of this quote from Jesus. “what is within you” = your Authentic Self. “what you do not have within you” = inauthenticity. “kill you” = not literal, although possible, keep you from enjoying life to its fullest. Discontentment, frustration, unhappiness, regret,...
