Who is in charge here? Is it you or is it a joint effort?
Who would be the one pulling your strings? Does it matter what you call the Guiding
Force that gives you life? Not at
all. What matters is that you realize
you never act alone. Yes, you can exert
free will. What a learning opportunity
that affords you! Or you can do the
opposite and surrender that pesky ego.
Either way, life goes on. It can
be no other way. You can go it alone,
which is how ego would like you to think you are, or you can take the Loving
Hand that is offered you and allow yourself to be guided.
