"My Most Important Relationship Is With My Source... There is no relationship of greater importance to achieve than the relationship between you, in your physical body, right here and now, and the Soul/Source/God from which you have come. If you tend to that relationship, first and foremost, you will then, and only then, have the stable footing to proceed into other relationships. Your relationship with your own body; your relationship with money; your relationship with your parents, children, grandchildren, the people you work with, your government, your world . . . will all fall swiftly and easily into alignment once you tend to this fundamental, primary relationship first."

--- Abraham

Although this sounds cheesy, and the language is reminiscent of a fundamentalist approach to religion, I still think it is basically true. The most important connection is the connection between Self and Source, whatever you call that source: Tao, God, Goddess, Higher Self, whatever. Once that's in alignment, it's much easier to manage everything else.

Of course, folks like Alan Watts would say there is no difference between Self and Source and it's all just a question of perception. That works for me, too. Using that lens, one might say that when one is able to perceive the unity of self and source, everything is easier and more likely to fall into place.

I'm going to a Methodist service with my dad this morning. I've never been to one before. I'm curious and interested.

Let me know what you think about the service. Maybe, if you're interested, you could visit a service with me once when you're down. I'd like to hear your perspective on the differences. :) (Besides, you'd get to see me in action! LOL)
