Anything if looked at correctly can become a terrific teacher.Any kind of adversity can become our best friend if we choose to work with it in this way.It takes great sensitivity, but after practicing, anybody can do it.
Diversity can be turned into an adventure.It really goes back to loving self.The true self which is spirit.This spirit or spark, is in each of us.So let’s use our spark and allow it to turn into a beacon of light.This beacon can turn into a flame.
Life to me; is like a tapestry of some kind.Everything connects, overlaps, weaves itself somehow together in incredible ways.It’s as if I at times can take a huge step forward, and the next day fall backwards farther than I could ever imagine.This is only temporary, because life works in cycles.These cycles intertwine, interconnect, and really somehow do weave an incredible quilt; if you will.The weaver is spirit, inspiration or imagination.
If I feel and see only the spark of spirit in everyone, then where is the diversity?I feel that being unique is diverse enough, and as A Course in Miracles says "Spirit makes use of mind as means for its self expression."So; as we feel good, are we not expressing our true spiritual self?
In the light, all are equal.
I sometimes have to remember to remind myself I can’t get spirit, because it is already here within me.
When I remember this, it feels good, and I am inspired to keep feeling and follow what I feel until I reach my goal or choose something else.

I couldn’t agree with you more – it reminds me of the analogy of all of us being waves in an ocean. Each wave is unique, yet is still merely another extension and reflection of the oneness that is the entire ocean.
