*Allow Growth to Manifest

*Allow Growth to Manifest

TOMAS: I [[applaud]] your [[introspection]] and your willingness to [[envision]] that which we [[discussed]]. Your [[understanding]] now of a [[fear]]-based realm, as it has been portrayed through the [[defense]] [[inherent]] in [[judgment]], has been a large developmental [[step]]. It also reminds me of what would appropriately be called a [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_year New Year]'s lesson, and this being the first gathering after your commencement of a New Year, it is a good time also to remind you that as you walk your [[path]], you who are [[growing]] and emerging and [[changing]] and maturing and developing each day, remember that so are your fellows, and when you come [[together]], or when you encounter each other, allow for the growth to [[manifest]].

In other [[words]], do not assume the [[routine]], the rut of [[association]], that each time you encounter your [[friend]], they are the same -- ["the same thing, the same thing, the same thing,"] -- for they are growing and changing and [[emerging]] as you are. If you continue to [[assume]] that they are not growing, then you are assuming a dead branch. That goes for all of you here. As you see each other in your encounters, [[accept]] about each other that which is [[good]], which you [[love]], which you routinely [[anticipate]].
