“You are a Human Being. These two words not only describe who you are as a member of a particular species but, if examined more deeply, also point to the twofold nature of your identity. Human is who you are on the level of form; that is to say, your body and mind. Those two aspects of your form identity make up your conditioned self. That self is conditioned by genetics and the environment, as well as other factors as yet unknown to science.
Being, on the other hand, points to the essence of who you are as timeless, formless, and unconditioned consciousness.
Human and Being, form and essence, are ultimately not separate, in the same way that a wave or ripple on the surface of the ocean is not separate from the ocean or from any other wave or ripple, although it may appear to be so.”
~ Eckhart Tolle
I’m feeling very Human right now as I get ready for a vacation in Scotland and with my Mum on a river cruise in the Netherlands. Lots of distractions in getting ready and anticipating the days ahead. There is also the conditioning of genetics, culture, familial roles and the environment that pulls me away from the contentment of Being.
Over the next couple of weeks I will be sharing my favorite posts to inspire us all in our Being and to Find our Middle Ground.
Find Your Middle Ground 
I’d love to hear from you …
