I've been aware for a little while now of my need to transform the 'dark' places inside myself, the disowned parts, the guilty parts, the angry parts, and all those other uncomfortable but very real feelings that I've pushed aside throughout my life. But I have felt awkward and self-conscious about this as well as feeling guilty for focusing on myself so much. After all, that's being selfish, isn't it, and we all know that's bad!! 
So it was with much relief and gratitude that I read the following paragraph from The Transformation Team's Lesson 20 which I'd like to share for anyone else who may be doubting the importance of their own personal transformation at this time.
"We are all here to learn from and love each other. By welcoming back these lost parts of ourselves – these parts of ourselves we have long judged, blamed, and avoided – we not only allow for deep healing, we promote a deep transformation of the collective consciousness of all humanity towards the recognition of all people as divine beings capable of powerfully spreading love around the planet."
Let's go for it! When the tide comes in, all ships rise together.
