For
many of us in Western culture, illness catalyzes and informs our awakening to
life purpose, particularly in these evolutionary times. The summer I had
pneumonia, I asked myself, "If I died, what would I regret?" The
answer came quietly: "You haven't loved." This surprised me, and then
I heard, "You haven't served." I began to understand how love and
service are one — and that love, service, and prosperity all course from the same
well.
In the business milieu, we (individually and collectively)
are sick because we are dis-spirited —
without spirit, or breathless. Spirit means breath: "inspire" is,
literally, "to breathe in"; "expire" means to breathe out,
or die. So spirit plays a key role in health/wholeness/wellness/wel(th). We
say, "Where's your company spirit?" when we ought to start with,
"Where's your personal spirit?"
