Enlightenment
Acorns Become Oak Trees

Dear Friends,

Over the course of the past several months, many of you have voiced your frustrations with the support you get from your "so called friends." A bit tongue and cheek perhaps, but we all know that the 80/20 Rule applies in most cases. Meaning, roughly 20% of your friends account for 80% of your correspondence. To the vast majority of your mates, you're just a name and a number.

Rather than throw our comrades under the bus, perhaps we can recognize that not everyone is ready to hear our message. In my own case, I have sent thousands of personal invitations to our network and most have fallen on deaf ears. Sure, people get busy at times and that's completely understandable. However, far more simply don't see the reason to jump on board this "choo choo" train and that's OK.

My point is not everyone will share your vision of a better tomorrow. Many of us, including me at times, are so wrapped up in our own problems to hear anybody else's call for help. Issues at the office and screaming kids at home can put a major damper on our ability to function, let alone serve the greater good.

The good news is that there's hope. The Law of Attraction states that like attracts like. Birds of a feather flock together. Like you perhaps, I have a dream of bringing the world together as ONE. Like you perhaps, I know that we cannot do it alone. It takes courage, perseverance and the spirit of cooperation to sow the seeds of love.

That's where our network comes into play. By forming a critical mass of like-minded individuals, we have the opportunity to transform the human race. Like a tiny acorn in the dark, your dreams have the potential to blossom into a giant oak tree when given the proper nutrition. Through the power of intention, we have the ability to cast a "virtual net of compassion" that can reach the deepest corners of the cosmos.

Like you perhaps, I'm a dreamer. My head gets lost in the clouds. My mom always told me I should be an astronomer because I was such a stargazer. I can remember laying flat on my back in the dead of winter and looking up. I was in awe of the infinite oneness of space. As we celebrate the Holiday Season, maybe it's time to be like a kid again. Cause one day, when you least expect it, that tiny little acorn of yours will sprout into the most beautiful oak tree in the whole wide world!! :)

Much love,

Jason
