There are many little things in everyday living that can easily cause disunity and disharmony. Rise above them and unite on what matters in life: on your love for Me, on your love for each other, on living and working for the good of the whole, and on forgetting the self and all those pretty little incidents that keep rearing their heads regarding personal likes and dislikes. It is when a soul feels strongly that its way is right and flatly refuses to give one way or the other that sooner or later something has to give. When you stretch a piece of elastic until it can stretch no more, it will either break or, if released suddenly, snap back and hurt you. But if you can release it gently, it will go back into place without breaking or causing and unnecessary pain or suffering. Why not open your heart and ease that strain and tension gently? Love and understanding will always help to smooth the way.
