That's actually quite good.

Absolutely. I think that sometimes the best advice that I can give somebody is to stop. Stop doing what you're doing because you're doing it from a place that's a protector. And so it's stop and check in. Sit and check in. First step of having the choice to check in is that moment when you let that light come in, right? It's the cracking open to what's possible. I always share this Rumi quote.

It's my favorite quote. I've shared it here on this podcast before. The wound is the place where the light enters you. Those wounded parts of ourselves are our greatest opportunities for transformational growth and extreme development. And here's what I believe as a spiritual teacher. I believe that Before we come into this body in this way, we sit down with our guides, our angels.

And there's actually, as always, what I believe, it was reinforced to me recently by this medium. It's like, yeah, that is exactly what happens. You sit down with your guides and your angels and you're looking at this list of life that you want to have. And you say, well, who do I want to be? What do I want to go through?

What are the experiences that I want to have so that I can learn the lessons that I am here to learn so that I can pursue whatever it is that this lifetime has meant for me?

And I believe that you and I both sat there with our guides and we said, we're going to have this abuse as children, and we're going to have these extreme experiences, and we're going to do, and I'm not going to put that on you, I'll put it on myself, right?

I'm going to have these experiences of trauma and attachment wounds and severe cocaine addiction and physical issues and remembering the trauma, all of that. Check, check, check, check, check. As a journey back to self. And I recognize that none of it is an accident. There are no bad parts of who I am, as Dick always says, no bad parts.

And I chose this path so I could unlearn the wounds of the world and remember the light and the self of who I am. And no one is different. I mean, everyone, take it or leave it. They don't have to have my spiritual faith.

But if you can start to see and witness these parts of yourself, Dick says there's no bad parts. And so as you start to witness these parts of yourself through that lens of compassion... You know, Lewis, I was a fellow for a while at this recovery center near my home. And I would go in every month.

And each month, it would be a new group of 100 people that were the new – because it was a 21-day program. So each month, it was new people. In the addiction program, recovery program. And the majority of them had one to two days clean. Okay? Because they were new. It was like a new wave of people. Okay. And I'd come in and I would teach them of this work.
