And yet this morning I awake in a mood of frustration, and if I allow myself to really feel into this rather than deny my feelings, I shall have to confess to momentary depression. What is this negativity all about in me?

I ask myself, … “Are you really committed to MAP and its ‘success,’ whatever that ‘success’ might be in the Plan of Salvation?” Right question!

“Where are my aims for self-expression and fulfillment stubbornly remaining unfulfilled?” What floats up immediately is my relationship with Sevenoaks, the Mid-Atlantic Pathwork (MAP) organization.

Let me pause a minute here. I am feeling my high energy in these realizations about what my spiritual path means to me. In short, my spiritual path is everything.

After being powerfully impacted by what came up in me in my Overflowing with Joy experience yesterday, I could not help but wonder if there might be applications in our Sevenoaks Pathwork Leadership community.

“My Cup Overflowerth!” The words were spontaneous and not at all on my list of topics to cover in my session…

Why have I pursued spiritual paths in general and Pathwork in Particular? Why am I so drawn to some spiritual paths? Why do I get so very committed to them?

After an encounter with one of our leaders yesterday I noticed I was bummed out – anxious, uneasy, and pulled off my center.

I saw that I put another burden on myself: I must be competent in my own spiritual life. After all, I left the church and have gone on my own spiritual path. I had better be “right” about this decision to leave my tribe and find my own spiritual path.

Struggling against nonexistent problems – now there is a helpful consideration!
