  3. We respect and take good care of ourselves (physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally)
  4. We respect each other, other people and the Universe
  5. We're supportive of one another (vs. supporting)
  6. We're evolving individually and as a couple
  7. We seek to understand each other
  8. We communicate our vision, mission, hopes, and concerns as they arise
  9. We carry out our personal mission on Earth lovingly and in Light

The Edge of All Our Possibility

Lois Sekerak Hogan
 
Edges are about choices and decisions. They define the territory between the familiar and the unknown, hence they are also about learning and the willingness to be temporarily disoriented. 

WE may find ourselves in a place where it takes all our courage to imagine taking another step. We worry there will be no solid footing, we fear we will lose something or be hurt.  Yet there are times when facing the brink is less a threat to life than the refusal to step out into our own truth. 

Something calls us to move out into the darkness, illumined only by an inner vision that draws us like the moon, to an urge we can no longer ignore.  Surrendering certainty to step out into the path of no path doesn't mean there is no path  - only that we cannot yet see it.

Explore new ways to allow your mental patterns to be altered permanently.
