Guest guest Posted September 16, 2011 Report Share Posted September 16, 2011 This dropped into my inbox: " I'm tired of hearing others say: " It's just my story. " I'm tired of spiritual teachers telling their students " to drop their story. " And I'm just as tired of us devaluing our story — our personal history — as I am of us overvaluing or overdramatizing it. What's needed is a deep honoring of our story, through which we mine from it what we need to become more integrated, more real, more at home with all that we are. " Augustus Masters What do people think? I agree with him, the " drop your story " decree just grates on my nerves, it seems so dismissive and non-compassionate. And so simplistic, it's a catch phrase that inhibits and negates the search for insight. Kate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
