Chris, how do you balance the mind and heart since your mind operates differently than the typical human. Is it frustrating?
For me, it's innate like breathing and my relationship with Jesus is so strong that it doesn't take any thought. I guess you'd also say that my genetics vibrates differently b/c of the Down Syndrome. The extra chromosome is like balance b/c I have 3 of the particular chromosomes. Also, Jesus is a brilliant light that guides me. I didn't know what he looked like in the physical until my mom drew him, actually, but I always knew who this brilliance was because he told me. I do wrestle with mind chatter and other beings who weren't so nice. I feel other thoughts too and people's feelings that come in waves. It can be overwhelming sometimes when the feelings are so strong. I don't cope with it like Sammie does but it can throw me off.
What would Jesus say about balancing mind and heart? He says just be in your heart space. Let expansive love of Christ sit in that space where you can feel cherished and respected. God respects me. He sees me and knows I'm doing a good job in this life of turmoil and confusion. In this life, l'm learning about self-love. I have a purpose with Sammie, too, but my human self is learning to love humanity and that includes myself in any way I showed up here. It's truly wonderful to have a body. This experience is a gift and when you know that then the mind chatter turns off easier. God's love is really simple. It's always right there. ~thru his mom, Susan Oros
