Dr. Wayne Dyer, In Memoriam
September 1, 2015

For me, Dr. Dyer was about as close to the 'second coming of Christ' as we are going to get. (Godspeed, Good heart).

The thing I like most about Dr. Dyer is that he and his brother were orphans who grew up in a series of foster homes ... and look what he BECAME.

How many times have I watched main- stream TV only to hear that the "perp" in the detective story was someone who had grown up in a foster home. Growing up an orphan, or having once lived in a foster home, does not automatically mean that a child will become a villain or a menace to society.

People who see the world only in black and white are likely to buy into this type of info if they hear it repeated often enough.
However, please consider this alternative point of view: The world might actually be a better place because of its orphans: Wayne Dyer, Steve Jobs, Andrew Jackson, Herbert Hoover, Nelson Mandela, Eleanor Roosevelt, Harry Potter!, etc.
There's a reason that the archetype of the orphan with magical powers exists, as orphans very often have inner lives that are equally as important to them as anything in the external world. And this place, deep inside, where angels fear to tread, is the wellspring from which orphans Create.

Thanks for the inspiration, Dr. Dyer.
