Hi All!After some intense five years of studying the Course and working my way through the Lessons at least three different times, going to classes for three of those years, and learning and enjoying…Continue

"Hi All! For some reason I Ihave been finding the lesson, "I have invented the world I see" very helpful this summer. It makes me smile (most of the time anyway!) when I start getting stressed about someone or something. I…"

"Hi Joe,
Your mentioning that song sung by Rod Stewart reminded me of another song he sings that sounds so much like a prayer to me:
May the good Lord be with you down every road you roam
And may sunshine and happiness surround you when you're…"

"This quote seems to be at the very core of what ACIM means to me:
"How can you who are so holy suffer? All your past except its beauty is gone, and nothing is left but a blessing. I have saved all your kindnesses and every loving…"

"Thanks Corinne!
I read your blog, and it is very helpful. A reminder that I keep needing to be reminded of! :-) Let go and let God, as they say in the 12-step program--or let go and let HS. Struggle itself should be my…"

"That's beautiful Shelagh! Great quote!
You're also making me think about our UNwillingness to heal which is what we perceive as interference, and that is another important thing we need to look at with the Holy Spirit! I wrote…"

"HI Corinne!
Yes, it seems Shakespeare had some amazing insights--it's no wonder he's been a source of interest to Ken Wapnick, too! No wonder people want to know who he really was. There's a very fine BBC program called In…"

"How funny that you're talking about Shakespeare - on one of our recent study group calls we were talking about Shakespeare and how he knew what he was talking about! The world is all "much ado about nothing!" :)"

Happy Shakespeare's birthday, btw. It's today! (April 23rd) I know Ken Wapnick has some books that refer to Shakespeare's language in the Course. A treat…"

I feel you know me quite well in all you have said here! What it is I need! I love the suggestion that if I need to set the Course aside for a while, I can find safe platforms in other teachers and disciplines…"

Profile Information
- About me:
- Ex-pat Brit living in the U.S. for...(thinks)... 44 years now. Wow! Really? Much to love about this side of the pond, yet love being "a little Brit different" too.
Love travel, writing, books, and the inner journey.
- "A Course in Miracles" has helped me in these ways:
- It has given a perspective on much of the insanity in the world and in my life. The depth of the teaching combined at times with truly beautiful and poetic language has been and is a great source of comfort and clarity.
- Favorite Spiritual Resources (e.g. books, websites, videos, songs, etc.):
- Lots of 12-step materials and authors that helped with the recovery and emotional healing that made me ready for the Course.
Love poetry in general, good memoirs, and art books.
Also contemporary British novels by Joanna Trollope, Penelope Liveley, Ian McEwan, and the like. They help me feel I can catch up on what's been happening across the pond!
Am currently writing a memoir with a view to showing my life as a journey towards A Course in Miracles.

Favorite music
Love classical and sacred music (sang in church choirs for many years).
Also love popular songs, folk, rock, some New Age, Celtic, well, almost everything! :-)
Went to see Andrea Bocelli this Christmas--love that man and his singing!

Hi Shelagh!
Thank you for accepting my invitation. I am glad to have you amongst my friends as well. And I agree with you. ACIM brought all of us here together and of course we will be helped if we need to.
Blessings
