Something different in my life (TIWC session 04-01-08)

"Given the chance to do something different in my life, what would i choose?"

Last April 1, 2008 at The Tuesday Inner Work Circle we reflected and shared on the guide question above. The intimate group was able to exchange rich and more in-depth personal sharing during the whole session.

I was interesting to note that although each person shared something unique to choose to do differently from their varied lives, there was something in common among all these-- that is: each one wanted to do something with a higher purpose that would benefit other people, instead of choosing something solely for one's self. Whether aspiring to accumulate enough wealth or to study science, math and the chaos theory, or still dreaming of becoming a medical doctor -- a deeper sharing of the context of choosing these paths reveal noble intentions of serving the greater whole and that these are not merely selfish fantasies.

Next session (April 8 - Tuesday) we will continue reflecting on this line but with another guide question for the week, which is:

What are the things that i do best? Am i doing now something (if not all) of what i do best? What do i feel are my unique gifts and capacities?

P.S. We wish to thank Babes (now known as Rays) who brought some healthy-yummy food and drinks to share from her own recipes-- malunggay-pineapple-mango juice and buttered camote (sweet potatoe) with cola. Hope she can bring more often! Thanks, Mother Rays!
