Michael(Bob S.): To You, Father, Who created all that is, was, or ever will be, we Your children open our hearts, our minds, our very selves to the words that have been prepared for our edification and growth this evening. We are in awe of Your divine love as we understand it, and seek in our lives to emulate that love which governs the Universe of Universes. We are thankful for those sons and daughters who have volunteered to come to this planet to shepherd individual charges, and those who have accepted larger roles as group teachers. We pray Your Image will be before us evermore in all we do. So be it. Amen.

Ken: Well, we never pulled one off on you.

Heclechora: The gravity of the problems in the world requires the balance of humor. It is absolutely essential for your health to laugh. The laugh mechanism was well described by Elyon as an evolutionary safety valve to exit aggression, stress, and worry. It is no wonder that one of your prominent citizens laughed himself out of fatal cancer. So, I am glad you enjoyed our little joke. I will not lecture you on the virtues of humor except to say, "Practice it more and more". Allow yourself the freedom to laugh and heartily, as you have just done, from the diaphragm, the belly laugh, which is nature's way of coping with stress, and letting go of aggression.

Daniel: Hello my dear friends. I am Daniel, your teacher, your guide, your friend and your brother. Thank you Heclechora for your commentary on humor and truth. I have a feeling that my students would like to respond to your comments. So, at this time, I will open the floor to them. Questions or comments?

Bob D.: I guess I will ask a question. On that truth discernment level, I struggle with this always wanting to do something, accomplish something, get something done that I feel in my heart to be substantial; almost as if just being who I am or what I am or what I am doing right now isn't enough. I want to understand how much of that is the perfection urge verses how much is this uncomfortability with being at the current level that I am in, in life. My wife often points out, "You know Bob, you have two kids, trying to go to school, do a job. You know, we are trying to do all these things. You want to do a conference; you want to write a magazine; you want to do things in the community; you want to do all these other things." I wonder....there is something in me that goes like.....I am trying to understand how much is leading verses how much is just not being satisfied with who I am? I struggle with truth discernment in all of that. (Chuckling)

Bob S.: I would be delighted.

Heclechora (Bob S.): Let us be in the attitude of prayer. To those Persons, the Paradise Three, to Whom we owe our ultimate allegiance, I say, send us forth with Your blessing. Comfort us with Your love. Overwhelm us with Your mercy. Forgive us when we go astray and uphold us always in the comfort of Your arms. Amen.
