"Mister Trouble in a Cat Suit - the Joy of a life shared"

Summary

This story explores personal and family values as viewed from the perspective of a family's pet.  It is written in a conversational style.  One of the family's pets recounts stories that he has experienced as a member of that family.  These stories cover a wide range of experiences that children (as well as adults) will encounter through out their life.

Questions posed through out the stories to encourage the reader to think about their own experiences.  This also provides an opportunity for an adult reading the story to a child to talk about these experiences.  This is meant to set the stage for conversations about spiritual values and how to cope with some of the transitional episodes and life's challenges that all of us will experience.

A supplement for this work is a "guide" to assist the adult or child them self to help explore the questions posed.

It is written in a non-denominational manner as it deals with aspects of life, death and some of the mysteries of life.

"Applications and Excercises "

Summary

There is a saying, the goal of education is to teach you how to think, not what to think.  The same is true for any endeavor we engage in to enhance our sense of self, our expression of the spirit of life.  The endeavor is to help us express our spirit.  It should not dictate to us what we believe.  It should not give us labels to clothe ourselves in.  Nor should it give us fixed responses to be quoted in response to the occurrences we encounter in our life.

This selection of writings discusses some of the day to day personal implications that stem from the Belief Statement.  It's the day to day matters that we should really be concerned with.  Having a sound Belief Statement is only as good as the resulting life, expression of spirit, it engenders.

The format for the discussions in this section is that a basic idea is introduced then a brief discussion follows.  The discussions are designed to introduce the reader to some of the implications of the concepts.  We hope that these insights assist the reader in developing their own real world application of the Belief Statement's ideals.
