Honor

Honor is #12 of this 16 blog series on couples compatibilty. We honor ourselves when we can laugh at ourselves and let the fool within us play, so April Fools week is a great time to share thoughts on honor. It’s easy to appreciate April Fools’ pranks that are motivated by friendship or love because there is an unspoken acknowledgement of respect. That combination of liking with respect is a form of honoring. I’d like to share a dream I had recently that mirrored my own choices of honoring. In the dream I came across a large pile of loose cash. The bills were all strewn on top of an item that I wanted to use. I contemplated the pile for a bit and then thought best not to disturb it. I knew it wasn’t mine or meant for me, and although I needed the item underneath, I decided to leave all as was. Later in the dream the same item reappeared clear of all money and free for my use. I was then able to complete the task I had in mind earlier. Upon waking, what struck me was how my own personal choices towards honoring were present in my dream actions. I feel a deep contentment when my dream persona instinctively “does the right thing” because it indicates I’ve truly integrated my own values within my deepest core. Although I may have relinquished those wonderful childhood dreams of finding and hoarding magical treasures, I’ve fulfilled one long struggle in honoring myself. So..when you’re conjuring up this week’s April Fools, count on your dreams as a never fail touchstone for revealing what you are, or are not, honoring in your life. They may surprise, or even turn the trick on you, so be prepared !!
