Listening to: A Course in Miracles (audio book version) from
The Inner Peace Foundation. If you haven't studied ACIM and you are serious Seeker, then it should be your next move. I started about 2 years ago with the Workbook and didn't understand it at all. It sounded kind of like a mix between Plato and Urantia. Then a friend gave me the complete Text and Workbook on audio tape (quite a gift) I listened to the first 7 tapes (the Text this time) and still didn't understand it. Then, recently I popped in No. 8 and it all fell together.
I'm a believer. If you are lost in a world of painful, constantly shifting emotions and yet still believe that out there somewhere there is someone, something who is guiding you, pulling for you to make it, then maybe you are ready for
A Course in Miracles. Just go to Barnes & Noble, sit down in the Cafe with The Course and a Grande Coffee of the Day and see if you're in there. Make it a date with Yourself to spend an hour at B&N every day and do the Course. You'll never be the same. I am friends with a
married couple who did the Course numerous times. They are so etherial that they are almost pure light.
Financial crisis easing a bit, Taylor still intact.
Here's the rest of the
Atlantic City Gambling story: I discovered that the Casinos really would give you cash on your Visa (remember this is pre ATM), at which time I forgot all about the car and ended up having a ball on borrowed money. Next day I got the car with cash and drove home. End of story.
Bill Bennett would be proud.
