===Opening===
 
Greetings, children, I am Ham and I am grateful to have this opportunity to speak with you this evening. We have come along a path filled with all the joys and sorrows, highs and lows of your normal lives' progression. Our mission is to enhance your lives, to make the lives you live an ever greater total experience. Gradually, you are each peeling away layers that you put on over the years for your seeming protection from the unpleasantness of life--but these layers have also been a barrier to the full experience of life as well. The complete embrace of life.

===Lesson===
 
For the beauty of life to be touching your souls you must also be vulnerable to the sadness of life. You must be vulnerable to the many winds of fate which blow about you ceaselessly. These things however are temporary, these blows to the soul are quickly healed when you are dedicated to living the spiritual life. Being vulnerable does not mean being foolish or childish. I mean to illustrate rather the attitude of having an open heart and once you decide to open your heart more and more to the Father's love, the more you will see that the world is also filled with his love. And the more you will love his many children with all their seeming strangeness, their differences, their fears and their failures. The more your heart is vulnerable, the more your heart is vulnerable to love. And love is the greatest experience humankind can attain.

   Line 26: Line 26:     
Love each other and grow in your friendships. Uphold each other and allow each other to make mistakes and to correct them. And above all--have joy in the simple pleasures of sharing your lives. My children, I will take no questions. My message is for your hearts. Go in peace. Tranquility. Mental balance. And joy. Always keep to the forefront of your minds the fact that love is never defeated. Love is the ultimate conqueror. Align yourselves with love and all the pettiness, all the sadness, all the joylessness of the past will be washed away. And your memories will be of the joy that you have experienced.

Fill your lives with joy, my children. Be at ease with yourselves. You are all doing wonderfully well. There is nothing I wish to correct or to change. Go in peace, then, and in love. Farewell.
