Give the mind an edge and it will take a long holiday of wanting its own way without its leash- that is both its forté and forté gone haywire
Spirit always has to hone it to get back on track and review their agreement on teamwork
Collaboration has received its fair share of bad rap
Free Spirit too has receive its fair share of bad rap
Sometime even I feel challenged- mistaking one for the other
Still give spirit a chance to direct the course and mind agrees that it can cause havoc sometime innocently and unintentionally.
It took much patience, gentleness and determination to keep on making the mind understand that it works best when spirit is at the will.
Sometimes it gets its roles in impeccable order and other times it is so testy.
It always like to feel that it can lead better than spirit until it meets the most impenetrable walls, often made of flesh and emotion
It stays put thinking that at any moment abracadabra will strike the wall and it can continue solo. Spirit sometimes lets it, so long as it is a safe time to help it think for it self and often time it gets the lesson and turns around and immediately volunteers to resume it humble helper’s role. One would think that the mind would get it without having to renege
I got to hand it to the mind though; it is one tough cookie and it continues to teach me the need to be persistent when helping spirit push against and right through walls, which happens to exist only in the mind

The mind: a very stubborn servant and humble helper…can’t live with it, can’t do without it!
Jesus would call this message a parable; I call it a paradox of the mind
