===Opening===
 
Evanson (Jonathan TR): Hello from Evanson. I would ask you how you are doing, but I can discern the light, I can perceive the joy and the happiness you express. Your levity is a delight, one that is missing in many struggling souls. It is good to have friends like you who are actively seeking to bring good cheer.

===Lesson===
 
This life, as you know, is the beginning of a great adventure, and it is rewarding to all teachers to have associates like yourselves who are aware of this adventure and who are actively engaged in deriving a new insight by developing a new reaction pattern to life based on your own experiences. Your 'tweaks of the week' are one example and one good and important exercise in discovering deeper meanings and higher values from your recent experiences. This is what makes life an adventure. It is not what you do, it is how you do your living that is most important. Of course how you go about your activities does define what you will choose to do, for the two are intertwined. But anyone can perform any physical task and have the same result as another. In the outer environment the result is indistinguishable from the one who does the action. But what about the soul who is engaged in that action? What is not seen in the result is the awareness and the emotional state of the one engaged. This is the dynamic realm of soul growth. Here is where you find those nuggets which nourish you, which draw you closer to the divine. The adventure is not crossing one continent or ocean to see another, for that you could do anywhere on any world. The adventure is your reaction to and your impact upon your environment, your locality, in spite of the world or the continent or the city.

The master sent his disciples out two by two. You are coming up on 2002. Let us hope for many, many souls to be engaged in the work of bringing this planet to Light and Life. Farewell.
