Oprah’s Lifeclass Notes:
You can accept or reject the way you’re treated by other people but until you heal the wounds of your past, you will continue to bleed. You can bandage the bleeding with food, with alcohol, with drugs, with work, with cigarettes, with sex, but eventually, it will all ooze through and stain your life. You must find the strength to open the wound, you must stick your hand inside, pull out the core of the pain, the memory, and make peace with it

Today’s Questions
October 10 Webcast with Oprah and Eckhart Tolle
Oprah shares what she now thinks about one of her most talked-about moments and offers advice for recognizing when our egos are getting the best of us and ways to help set ourselves straight.
Today’s Question: Where does my ego get in my way?
See what others are saying
Oprah’s Lifeclass Notes: We can’t begin to be true ourselves unless we know who we are. No thing, no material possession matters in terms of defining who you are.
When we get separated from our “knowing”, our inner place, we get lost. We get into our ego.
Ego is defined as any identification with form – identifying with anything that is not the center of ourselves – things, status, position, possessions. Ego is a dissociation from my true value. Ego is a false sense of self. When a child starts to identify with an object, the ego starts. The moment I can identify my ego, I diminish its power.
When I get in touch with my true self, my awareness, that is me disguised as a person.
Am I defined about what other people say? Does it determine how I feel?
When I receive criticism, they could be right.
Does I love you equals I’ll trade you?
Is this a business contract or do I really love you?
I’m happier when I love you – whether or not you love me. It matters not – whether or not you participate.
Just the fact that I’m here makes me “worthy”.
I visualize my intended outcome. What is it? Material – abundance? Spiritual? Higher understanding? Inspiration? Imagination? My process includes all of these.
I know if I live and move with my intention, it is inevitable. The outcome will come together – as I encounter circumstances and situations.
I have been given a passion for art and my intention is to paint something that will benefit others. Right now I’m working on a painting of a soldier embracing his wife/girlfriend, husband/boyfriend. It is meant to represent all soldiers – male and female. leaving or returning. If it turns out the way I’m hoping, I’ll donate proceeds to help military families in some way. My dream is that it will help soldiers and their families monetarily. My hope is that it will sell many prints. But if it sells even one, I know that money will help someone. My intention is that it will make a difference in someone’s life.
My intention creates my reality and orchestrates fulfillment of my dream. This is my dream.
My intention is in my heart and I’m listening with my soul. I’m living and moving with this intention. Things will come together in just the right way, at just the right time. Situations, circumstances will work together to accomplish my dream.
I’m so excited!

Purpose, Intentions
My affirmation for today..
Acknowledging my mortality motivates me to live my life more fully. My days are gold and I use them wisely and fully.
Gleaned from my Oprah’s Lifeclass notes..
My husband and I had few surprise moments of unexpected glee, joy, just plain fun.
In September, my son was visiting from Las Vegas – a 50th birthday trip. We had a wonderful family gathering and dinner in our home – cousins, aunties (one had traveled quite a distance), sisters, brothers, nieces, nephews, sons, grandchildren – you get the picture.
My sisters picked up some helium-filled balloons. They’ve lived in a corner of our dining room for two months (the balloons, that is:). They’ve hung in there, lasted, they’ve rested against the ceiling. They’ve been a daily reminder of a very special day with some of our most loved. Fun, pictures, good food, a lot of “catching up”.
A joyous day celebrating my son, and each other. Family who are also friends!
Today, my husband said he was ready to put the balloons away. And so was I. On his way to the door, we looked at each other and, at 71 and 75, we felt like little kids again. We headed to the backyard, made some wishes, filled those balloons with our worries, and let them go. We laughed. We watched until we could no longer see them. We marveled at their movement. We felt some moments of freedom and exhilaration. We laughed again. And we still have our memories of that day.
We also decided that we’ll go buy more balloons and do that again some time soon. Just because….
Oprah’s Lifeclass…What gives me joy?
