*Elyon (Jonathan TR): Hello, my friends. It is truly gratifying and rewarding to witness your pursuit of your homework this week and to see yielded therefrom much insight on your part. These perceptions that you made during your reflections create inroads, little openings into great avenues through which you may better develop the perfected creature you seek to be. I assure you that as you inspire myself to generate further activities of this nature for you to undertake you also inspire each other, for you reveal to one another how similar your different lives actually are.

===Lesson===
 
In a way, to redirect values is to discover that ultimately all values converge at the Supreme value of love, that by turning your awareness in that direction, the many values that impact your life take on a clearer focus in importance and usefulness. Values only come into conflict when your position in which you view them is turned away from the focal point of love. Visually you may think of it this way: Imagine on the end of a pole many long streamers. If you were to look at these streamers blowing in turbulent air, from the point of the pole these streamers would appear chaotic, fluttering around wildly in disarray and even entanglement. But when you look from away, you can see their connection to the pole and that they often are blowing in the same direction; they have a cohesive quality from an overview, from a stand back view.

By reflecting as you have this week upon your assignment, you stood back and looked upon your situations and perceived coherency, connectivity, with various events. They all had a meaningful involvement with the assignment. Again I restate that this is a morontia approach. This is that extra vision that morontia awareness provides as you live even through seemingly mundane events. I acknowledge your efforts and give you all good grades.

===Dialogue===
 
Sarah: Can you tell us where to even start on this? It's such a large introspection. Frankly, I would try to do the whole thing at once. I need some steps to begin to learn all this. A lot of lessons came today just from our conversation. I'd like your input. Should we go on with this next week?

Tom: When you speak of adding structure to an ideal, say honesty, and we choose the work arena. Is that what you are talking about? How you can apply that one ideal in that specific situation, for example?

===Closing===
 
Machiventa: Yes. Also, in the overall of your life you seek perfection, but you also realize in the material world many things will not ever become perfected because the planet itself is not in the condition where that perfection can become realized. So you need to establish an ideal which is practically adapted to the conditions.
