More and more, I am loving our concept of healing! By carefully considering the obvious functions of each part of the body, I am personally inspired! Knowledge of the right side of the brain clearly shows human capacity for creation. (It makes me want to be more creative and less awkward about sharing what I’ve created.) Pondering just a short list of what is known about the left side of the remarkable human brain, I am wowed again.
On the left side of the brain, human beings are capable of developing analytic thought, logic and reasoning, verbal and written language skills, as well as science, math and number skills.
I imagine people of long ago, from chiefs of small tribes to rulers of great civilizations.What would their skills have been that would have enabled them to attain and hold power, and help their people prosper? They would have needed to be skilled at communicating. They would have needed access to records (verbal or written) to assess and analyze needs, growth and security. They would have needed counselors to inform their critical choices.
I consider again those basic functions of the left side of the brain, and this is why I am wowed: every human being is designed to be a leader. Every human being is designed to grow in wisdom through logic and reasoning, through analyzing outcomes, data and experiences. Every human being is designed to connect with other human beings through communication. All human beings are designed to be leaders!
We are designed to choose for ourselves in our own minds what we will believe and what we will do. What can that mean for you? On a practical level, you can be confident you can grow in wisdom, choose your choices well. You can know you can be a good leader of yourself, and you can be prepared to be a good leader over others. if you desire wisdom, seek it—you were made for it.
I was telling my son the other day how, as I ponder the intended functions of the human body and write about my insights, I am amazed at the realizations that come. (It is truly energizing!) He commented that my ah-ha moments, as writer, will definitely come more often than for those who read because I am putting in so much more time. (Where I spend hours writing and rewriting, you will likely spend a couple of minutes at most, even if you read carefully.) He’s right. I’m getting more out of this than you.
What can you do to be more inspired, more hopeful, more energized in this healing process? You can learn. You can search. You can ponder. You can write—much more than the Statements of Truth. You can read. (I’m eager to read a book I gave my son for Christmas. It’s called The Master and His Emissary. I didn’t know until a few days ago that it’s about the very things I’m writing about, the left brain doing (as an emissary) the good things the right brain (the master) commissions.)
Seek knowledge; be awe-inspired by it. Seek wisdom. Seek to better cultivate the skills of leadership you were designed to achieve. You can do it. You were made for it.
