Glad your webcam is working again. (Maybe your ego was playing a trick on you. Smile.)
Thanks for sharing the two inspiring passages from the book. Knowing our true identity as spiritual beings, one with God -- created in God's image -- is an empowerment. Acknowledging and accepting this truth that we are love as God is love, we choose to create/act with love instead of fear for the good of all. This is listening to the Voice of Love. Love is resonanting/radiating outward from within. This brings peace.
I just printed this in the comment box at ACIMTV blogspot. This is about the poem "There is a Hole in my Sidewalk."
This poem is everybody's story. We all started out living unconsciously. We tend to react when something wrong has happened and blame it on someone else. We would repeatedly do this until one day, we wake up and realize that we're responsible for our mistakes. So, we change our perceptions and start becoming more aware/mindful of our behaviors -- and of our thinking. We start taking responsibility for our lives. We learn to live consciously and avoid making the same mistakes -- later we learn to find ways to deal with certain situations rather than just avoiding them. We learn to choose love instead of fear. We are transcending our ego selves (our false selves due to fear) when we see our illusions and set them aside. We learn to choose love instead of fear -- and act on love. It is all about awareness --the key to our spiritual enlightnement.
It is said that soon after his enlightenment the Buddha passed a man on the road who was struck by the Buddha's extraordinary radiance and peaceful presence. The man stopped and asked,
"My friend, what are you?
Are you a celestial being
or a god?"
"No," said the Buddha.
"Well, then, are you some kind of magician or wizard?"
Again the Buddha answered, "No."
"Are you a man?"
"No."
"Well, my friend, then what are you?"
The Buddha replied,
"I am awake!"
"Shedding one's skin. The snake that cannot shed its skin perishes. So do the spirits who are prevented from changing their opinions; they cease to be spirit."
~ Friedrich Nietzsche
19th century German philosopher

Hi Jill,
I am looking through your v/blogs now as the refreshers for me, to center my being, etc.
Now I am asking myself a question... is love an advocacy for survival? Or anger for the need to survival? I know anger is just an illusion, but so far media promotes anger for the need to run government, etc. Love is still an unfamiliar and yet very familiar concept for all of us.
Hmmmm....
I just viewed your vlog about Sin as Lack of Love. So sin equals anger equals pride...
