Grace appears to like the diversity of being-person, with the particularity of each of us. Our time here includes our saying a total "Yes" to being a human being among other human beings. Oneness is not a denial of self, but a transformation of how we see ourselves in relationship to everyone, everything, Life.

We see~we know~then, evolving spiritually is to cherish the self we are, and, in doing that, we cherish the self the other is. That we each are different, we are grateful. And we discover, the more intimate we become with our own particular selves, the more intimate we become to other selves, as well as the more intimate we become with that we are together. One need not detain from emphasizing his or her specialness when living oneness, for the unique is an emanation of the single, singular Life.

For all this, we are grateful. We each are a gift among gifts, a grace among graces. We each in ourselves, for in each other, have inestimable value. Yes, as observed the nurse, those she served are selves of worth. Why? For worth is not what we have done, but who we are. We are so much more than that seen; in realizing this, we can accept the challenge to live it, which is, really, to be lived by it~by Love. We are each the expression of God, and God, being God, can know no other outside, or part from. Love is like the quilt including all, even that one which does not recognize it belongs. Love, however, recognizes all; Love is the place we belong, and Love is belonging.
