Thank you very much for this eye-opener. Learning to transform ourselves and learning to see through the eyes of love, that is indeed the panacea, the universal medicine.

Alicen, this very wise and very relatable explanation for how the version of the world we experience originates with us resonated with me deeply. I want to remember that whenever I fear the judgment of others, I will be tempted to see only their lack and malice, thereby reducing them to the worst version of themselves. Recognizing this as the source of evil is bracing. It inspires me to renew my commitment to seeing myself and others through the eyes of love and acceptance. I think I’ll post an image of your evil eye meme on my bathroom mirror so I am constantly reminded of this profound truth. Thank you for sharing your truth!

Thank you. I love how encouraging this essay is without pulling any punches... firmly reminding us to reclaim/rediscover our inherent, God-given gifts and live accordingly. 🙏
