Thoughts That Hurt to Think #117 – The Ocean Is A Mystery!

The ocean is a source of endless analogies. Wherever you are in life, this vast connected body of water can represent things you learn along the way like few other things.

“Believing that you are a human being is believing a lie, and living as a human being is living a lie. Knowing that you are Spirit causes you to live a life of a Spirit.”
Jay Norry, Stumbling Backasswards Into the Light

“As far as I’m concerned, story is everything. It is why we get up in the morning and how we choose who to take to bed at night. Story is the thread that weaves together the very fabric of reality.”
Jay Norry, Stumbling Backasswards Into the Light

“Believing that you are a human being is believing a lie, and living as a human being is living a lie. Knowing that you are Spirit causes you to live a life of Spirit.”
