COL Mikel Burroughs good read/share: for the Colonel's Motivational Quotes of the Day. Where the mighty American Bald Eagles roam in the mighty MOUNTAINS OF CASTLE ROCK, COLORADO AMONG THIER EAGLES-NEST. I know the view must be MAGNIFICIENT on this day December 3, 2020 as you might glance upon the mighty snowcapped mountains headed into the month of January 2021. As you know I would respond a lot throughout the week, but I am full-time DOD employee doing contracts for the Defense Contracting Management Agency. It is good to have sometime on my break to respond my friend.
Today's theme is “Wholeness Day!” I quote, “You don’t need another person, place or thing to make you whole. God already did that. Your job is to know it.” — Maya Angelou

That's Carl Jung who saw life's goal a quest for becoming a "whole" person by integrating the conscious and subconscious into a refined whole. His belief that dreams were our bridge into our subconscious drove his passion in dream interpretation. He was also interested in the I-Ching and wrote a wonderful forward to the popular Wilhelm German translation (Princeton University Press). Jung is one of my heroes. He saw the process of integration as a product of our aging if we paid attention and worked on wholeness. I can tell you as an old guy that I have become more complete as I have aged and "worked the program".

I expect that you are very thankful for your salvation which God fulfilled in HIS perfect timing. As you are probably aware each of us is created with an imperfect soul marred by the effects of sin over the eons. By God’s grace at our salvation through the Holy Spirit, HE initiates the sanctification process to perfect our soul in HIS perfect sequential timing. ‘'Behold, I was brought forth in iniquity, and in sin did my mother conceive me. 'Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a right spirit within me.’ [Psalm 51:5 & 10 ESV] my brother-in-Christ SFC Joe S. Davis Jr., MSM, DSL.
I hope and pray that you and I are becoming clearer in communication, better listeners, and more gracious in building up others and accepting blame for our mistakes and the mistakes others committed on our behalf.
I pray that one of YOUR adopted sons and daughters are becoming more transparent to those around us as we mature in Christ. Enable each of us to trust YOU more completely and to lean on YOU as we make our way through life by your leading. 'The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures. He leads me beside still waters. He restores my soul. He leads me in paths of righteousness for his name’s sake. Even’ [Psalm 23:1-3 ESV]
I pray for the individuals who are in dire need of psychiatric assistance, relief from drug addiction – especially prescription drug addition, and those intent on suicide. I pray LORD that YOU bless each with sufficient peace to sleep securely tonight and lead help to each one. ‘though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.’ [Psalm 23:3-4 ESV]
I lift this nation, Canada, Mexico, UK, France, Germany, India, Australia, New Zealand, Korea and Japan to YOU dear LORD. I pray that YOU open the eyes and ears of those susciplable to be enticed to false prophets and teachers in pulpits, airwaves, internet, TV, cable as well as the radical socialism the BLM leaders are focused on. Sadly, many are fooled by the rhetoric of BLM and their corrupt allies who are intent of delivering their adherents away from trust in family, faith in God and law which is unbiased. 'And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.’ [Matthew 24:11-13 ESV]
I pray that you and your family members sleep well Thursday night and will awake refreshed and healthy on Friday morning.
By the power and authority of the Name above all names, Jesus the Christ

Good morning Col Burroughs. Having broken parts or cracks or scars doesn't mean you are not whole or can't get there. Finding your way, making the journey is a part of life, a part of being, a road to healing and wellness. Everyone's journey is different but equally important and don't forget the spiritual side of it; it encompasses ALL that we are and are meant to be. Let the process strengthen not discourage you.

The answer to your wholeness and the journey your on is love thyself, and those closest to you for it is that faith that keeps you moving forward.

Good “Thursday” Morning “Burroughs’ Posse Leader from the beautiful deep blue crystal clear skies of Greater Boston... Currently 38°.
“Wholeness Day!” Why Not?
1) "Human wholeness can never be found in the denigration of another. - John Shelby Spong
2) "When you have broken the reality into concepts you never can reconstruct it in its wholeness." - William James
3) "Healing is the process of reestablishing the integration between body, mind, and spirit, creating opportunities for the return of the memory of wholeness." - David Simon
4) "Peace of the sort that brings wholeness, harmony, and health to our lives only happens when chaos, confusion, and conflict are included and transcended." - Harrison Owen
5) "A new moon teaches gradualness and deliberation and how one gives birth to oneself slowly. Patience with small details makes perfect a large work, like the universe. What nine months of attention does for an embryo forty early mornings will do for your gradually growing wholeness." - Rumi
How does wholeness affect those who are or aspire to be Leaders? Read on...
“Wholeness in leadership is all about becoming clear on what is most important to the leader and using that to guide decisions, speaking up when they’re uncomfortable with a directive, or letting others know they don’t have the answer, or they made a mistake — being real!” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs

COL Mikel J. Burroughs
Sgt (Join to see) - Great quotes this morning brother Kerry - thank you and have a great afternoon and evening...
We are all different and therefore we’re different stages of knowing who we really are, what we believe, how we value honesty, how we focus on relationships, and how we regard results from our efforts. Wholeness to each of us means something different in our various stages of life and will change over time as we look internally to what matters most to each of us. May you recognize and find the purpose of your journey on this earth to reach your wholeness; may you have the right outgoing perspective and attitude to rationalize inside who you really are; may your mind, body, and soul be opened to grace, goodness, peace, forgiveness, and a bountiful life of purpose; and keep your family safe, secure, happy, and healthy. ‘Absolute wholeness is a state in which consciousness and the unconscious work together in harmony’ — Daryl Sharp Find your harmony.” — COL (Ret) Mikel Burroughs
