[Transcriber’s Note: Dear Folks, I didn't know you were going to publish these introductions to the transmissions or I would have mentioned not only a short period of training to transmit, but the years of experiencing Michael's and Mother Spirit's very palpable - sometimes intense - Presence at Donna's meetings, which fully convinced me of Their reality and accessibility. Then Donna gave lessons specifically designed to help us transmit first a kindred spirit - an ascendant mortal, Welmek, with whom we had also had years of contact, and consider to be a very close, real friend.

===Opening===
 
Dear Michael and Mother Spirit, As You reach to contact us from without and right within, help us reach ourselves. Help us know ever greater measures of love, and honor, and respect for our bodies and our minds. Help us be ever more healthy - mentally and physically, not only for ourselves, but to be able to help those around us. Especially let us be good examples of how to live strong, healthy lives for our children and our youngsters who so profoundly need these examples. Amen.

Michael: Good evening, My children. This is your Father and your Brother, Michael. That’s it… Just relax and allow My presence to swell in your total awareness. Let the pace of your awareness slow so that you feel you are constantly arriving here and now. You are complete each moment and your souls are full of your whole lives’ adventures and discoveries, both what you have encountered, and so much too, My children, what you have created. I would have you appreciate what you have done for yourselves all these years - the attention you paid when it really counted for yourself and for those you love. This is the supreme spiritual price you pay for an expansive, creative life: you pay attention. You seek out those new ways that are calling to you, saying, "Come this way. This is the way to greater life. This is the way to expand your horizons both within you and without. This is the way to find those rewarding experiences which help you continue to evolve."

===Lesson===
 
For this, My children, is the critical necessity that life places on you. This is the primal condition of life itself: grow or die. And even though you lose so much of your fear of death by trusting in the resurrection of your souls on the Mansion Worlds of our Father, whose thresholds into eternity you will all know someday, I am concerned with all the little ways of dying that you encounter day by day.

===Dialogue===
 
Student: One of the questions I have is: my mind wanders a lot during these sessions. Are these the impulses You were talking about that can be overcome little by little, or maybe all at once? I don’t seem to be doing too well with them. Also, I feel You stop my fear and I’m just beginning to recognize it as fear, instead of something else. Is this also one of the impulses You’re speaking of? Michael: C, I would say…no. An impulse is a specific, intense, immediate desire to do a certain thing. Tonight I addressed them as they are associated with unhealthy habits, and to resist them I used as an example what you have all experienced when you first learned to drive: while going along at a fast rate – disregarding any stray impulse to suddenly jerk the steering wheel one way or the other to see what might happen. These little impulses can occur to you and yet you have some respect for the mass and the momentum of that physical vehicle, not to follow them. But those habit-impulses which lead to bad health can generally be indulged for awhile before large effects show up.

As to what you are experiencing during these sessions, I take it as a great compliment to My presence that you feel comfortable enough just to feel Me here, and trust that there is within you - something there - recording what I am saying. Then you can get the nourishment you most profoundly need - to rest deeper and deeper in My presence. This is a decision you have been making unconsciously, My son, by trusting your Mother and I, and We thank you for it. This way you get to know you are truly Our son. So never fear to rest deeply in Our peace and love.

===Closing===
 
(Very long pause) And so as one of your poets said, "You lose yourself. You reappear." It takes a bit of courage to do this too. The rest you are able to get while you sleep is dependant on this trust in our Father to put you back together again in the morning. Then too it is possible to go through your days never too far away from your spiritual home base because you can take the awareness of it along with you. Paradoxically seeming, you simultaneously acquire the ability to go deeper and deeper into the adventure of your life by going deeper and deeper into self-forgetfulness - deeper and deeper into a faith that lets you be fully engaged, trusting you will reappear to yourself in spontaneous moments of stillness and reflection. For it is also, sadly, possible for fear to become so great, and you to feel the need to hold onto yourself so tightly, that nothing much happens in your life. This would be the greatest waste of all, a death right within life. Yet your trust and your faith and your courage are, if you are paying attention, immediately felt rewards in themselves, as well as being doorways to something - unimaginably marvelous.
