Welcome!
This forum is based on the materials from the book entitled "In Loving Grace, We Dream."
Reading the book will give you a better understanding of the work, but this is not necessary for you to post a message.
Of the many topics in the book, the one about Life Themes begins with clarity in #76 of the collection but gives a beginning glimpse of specifics in #81. Here it is repeated:
The next morning
I see myself reflected
in the rising sun.
I walk towards something
without words,
and I sit quietly
with the unknown.
It makes me feel ungrounded
at first
then becomes more familiar,
and I see beyond the unknown
to the New.
I see a realization New to me,
in this moment,
about how I block who I am
at my innermost core
from others and myself.
My awareness sheds a first light
on a common theme in my life,
one I have felt
but never given breath or words.
As I have walked in circles,
I have spiraled around one theme:
doubt.
For your understanding
Life Theme: the dynamic that restricts an individual from living the life that they are meant to life (or fulfilling their Soul Mission)
i.e: issues of self-doubt or feelings of unworthiness
This restricting dynamic must be clearly acknowledged before it can be shifted or healed. This process is called First Light.
How to Self-Discover your Life Theme:
Sit quietly.
Reflect on your goals (or non-goals) in life.
Ask yourself one or more of the following:
- What is it specifically that keeps me from living a meaningful life?
- What stops me from fulfilling my Soul Mission? and/or
- What is it that blocks me from feeling happy?
It is the First Light shown on your challenges
that changes everything.
And although it may not change anything
to clearly see the What Is of your life,
it is equally possible that All Things could change.

Thank you, Doreen G., for these touching words about this topic:
And how do I ever explain
who It is I am.
Who It is I become
each and every moment that
I am found.
When an explanation seems
to limit me into concepts
that don't ever come
close to the infinite
possibilities that seem
to be ever coming.
And take me into
depths that I had no idea
existed and then I seem to
soar to heights that I never
knew I could reach until now.
And then choosing to
experience again the
circle,
the cycle of Life that
seems to bring me
deeper yet
and compels me toreach
higher still.
For I am
Yes
I am.
And in the stillness and silence
that seems to envelop
me, you, us, them
lay the answers to all questions
that seem to arise.
And what Is, just Is,
and as I live,
myLife unfolds perfectly.
And I seem to see, hear and feel
beyond and say,
Can't you see what It is I see?
Can't you hear what It is I hear?
Can't you feel what It is I feel?
And all Is whatIt Is and all will
Be what it will Be.
And so just keep doing
what you do,
Being who you Be.
Living Life as It seems to
unfoldperfectly.
And Love seems to embrace me.
Light leads me.
Truth meets me.
Peace blankets me.
Joy fills me.
And I am
Isay,
I am.
And then the gentle voice within
calling
Grace
Grateful
Graceful
Grace
come and Be
all I ever imagined
you to Be.
In Loving Grace,
We Dream.
