You have the power

I found myself at a Belmont Child Care event recently, surrounded by images of The Land of Oz, and it brought the Wizard’s words to mind. Was L. Frank Baum a Spiritualist (he was known to be a freethinker)? In his messages to Dorothy, the lion, tin man and scarecrow, the Wizard confirms his belief in our innate wisdom, courage, and love. In truth, we have the power to make changes in our lives, but we often need to learn this for ourselves. You exercise this power each time you act or make a decision for the greater good of humanity / community rather than for your sole benefit. This is inherently how to live a conscious life. Why does this matter? Because living a conscious life leads to inner peace, and our inner peace impacts those around us, creating harmony. And so, if you’re willing to join me on the yellow brick road, we’re off to see the Wizard!
