From Gary Zukav, the Heart of the Soul<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201cAuthentic power is the alignment of your personality with your soul.<\/b>\u201d p29<\/p>\n

\u201cAuthentic power is the human experience without the limitations of fear, self-doubt, and self-hatred.\u00a0 <\/b>When you locate and challenge the parts of yourself that judge, criticize, despair, envy, and hate, you remove the parts of yourself that stand between you and authentic power.\u00a0 When you locate and nurture the parts of yourself that appreciate all of Life, including your own life, you cultivate authentic power.\u201d \u00a0 p32<\/p>\n

\u201cAuthentic power is the experience of fulfillment, no matter what you are doing.\u00a0 It is knowing that the person you are with is the person you are supposed to be with.\u00a0 All that you say and all that you do is appropriate.\u00a0 You have no thoughts of fear.\u201d \u00a0 p33<\/p>\n

This is exactly how I was feeling during my \u201cdays of grace.\u201d \u00a0I describe them in the posts Epiphany<\/a> and Epiphany 2<\/a>. \u00a0There were four days like that, and then I fell back into scared and sad. \u00a0But I’ve been able to keep doing what I thought had helped me, and I’ve had more “days of grace.” \u00a0This morning I woke up OK, and as I was writing in my journal I felt a wash of sadness. \u00a0I greeted it with affection, put my arms around it, honored it, welcomed it. \u00a0It faded while I was still writing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
