A Restful New Year

by | Jan 4, 2015 | A Course of Love

C:12.5  You are looking for the rest and quiet joy that only comes from love. Yes, it’s a new year, but can it wait a week or two? I am new to rest; barely beyond the stage of needing excuses. Do you know what I mean? “I’m so tired I need to rest . . . but why? What...

Expand your reach! In last Sunday’s post from the cabin, I said that I’d talk more this week on expression. I’m not sure what I had in mind. Was it just the desire to post some of the Course’s wonderful quotes on how essential self-expression is? Was it on the...
