I realized yesterday when I was talking about the Tree of Life that it is the Tree of LIFE - not Knowledge, not Wisdom, not Ascension, etc. You find these on the Tree or through working the Tree. To me, it really is a way of living life. I am struggling with humility (basically replacing a sense of entitlement that has served me to compensate for a low self-esteem). My sense of self is changing - my self-esteem is healthier now. It is still amazing how lessons creep up on me when I am working the Tree.
'We have magnificent brains, but we use a great deal of our brilliance to keep ourselves stuck and ignorant, to keep ourselves from not shining. We are so afraid of our beauty and radiance and brilliance because it scared the adults around us when we were children.' Patricia Sun
