You might [[picture]] a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tea_set tea set]. Let us call the teapot [[Michael]]. Let us also view the [[Spirit of Truth]] and the [[Holy Spirit]] as the cream and sugar and the contents in this teapot, the tea itself, is [[truth]]. By placing truth within your own vessel, the Holy Spirit and the Spirit of Truth adjust this [[truth]] such that you are better able to [[assimilate]]. The truth itself is not changed; it is merely supplemented by these spirit [[presences]].

Sometimes you may need to pour through a strainer your tea-truth in order to remove extraneous bits and pieces. As you discard what is not useful in your life, refrain from [[condemning]] yourself for your previous [[status]], for as you know, any good tea needed to steep in the leaves to become the [[flavor]] it is, even though chewing these leaves after the steeping is not to one's liking.

It is [[wonderful]] to attend a complete class full of classmates around you to help in the growth [[process]]. It may also be helpful to each as [[individuals]] to enroll in any extracurricular activities, study halls, or extra [[tutoring]] sessions. You all have come to [[realize]] the [[value]] of attending these classes in your own lives. You may augment this effect upon your [[growth]] by choosing to study a little more, a little harder. We all realize the [[cyclical]] nature of [[time]] commitments and [[priorities]] and await your decision to avail yourselves of our [[services]].

Please take with you from these classes the [[camaraderie]], the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer_group peer group] you enjoy at this time, as they are indeed on a similar [[course]], a similar [[path]] to that of your own, and may prove ultimately as beneficial to you in your [[discourse]] with them as with [[the teachers]] and the lessons delivered to you. Be on the lookout for [[truth]] to come at you whether you choose to drink yours from a saucer, or a mug, or a stein; it is available to you in any of these forms for your taking.

Ann: I look for [[truth]] to enter into my [[soul]], that it might find a permanent place with me. If I need that nourishment, I can look to my soul and find sustenance that will not only feed my [[mind]], my [[emotions]], and my [[physical]], but I can [[share]] with others.

Mary: In reference to what Machiventa said, we often think of ourselves as being in the classroom when we are in [[stillness]] or in session or actually talking about [[learning]]. Then there is the lab work which is when we're out doing our business. We have to remember that is an aspect of the class as well. There is some [[analogy]] with the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tea_party tea party], the ingesting of these [[experiences]] and the [[truth]] that the experiences bring you.
