Sipping Spirits. (2 min 13 sec)

Hey, Mighty Companions, let’s talk spirits, shall we? Not just the ones that keep you up at night or those that fire up your bloodstream. No, I mean all spirits — the ghosts, the booze, and the life force that you think defines you. Let’s brew it up, cup by cup.

First Cup: The Ghost in Your Head

Ghosts. Apparitions. These are nothing more than mental projections of the past — haunting you with regrets, mistakes, and lost loves. ACIM teaches that these ghosts are simply ego's fear wrapped up in spectral form, designed to keep you from seeing the present moment. You’re haunted not by actual spirits, but by your own unresolved guilt. The coffee’s cold because you keep staring at the past.

Here’s the punchline: Your demons aren’t real. They’re shadows you cast when you forget to turn on the light of Truth.

Second Cup: The Buzz from the Bottle

Alcoholic spirits? Oh yeah, that liquid courage. We all love a drink to unwind, to forget, to celebrate. But this reliance on spirits, whether it's a drink or a habit, is a temporary patch to a deeper problem. You sip to numb the ego’s screams, but it’s a false high — a fleeting pleasure that never touches the root of your pain. You think you’re loosening up, but you’re binding yourself tighter to the body’s addiction.

Wake-up call: Coffee won’t sober you up if you’re spiritually drunk. Real freedom isn’t in the bottle — it’s in letting go of the belief that you need anything outside yourself.

Third Cup: The Life Force You’ve Been Missing

Now, let’s talk about the true Spirit, the divine essence — the life force within. Spirit is your real identity, the animating force of Love, not the ego-driven mirage you’ve been sipping on. This is the only Spirit that won’t leave you hungover. It’s the essence that connects you to all life, the oneness that dissolves all illusions of separation. While you chase ghosts and bottoms-up cocktails, you miss the ultimate brew — Spirit’s eternal buzz of peace and joy.

Final shot: The true Spirit doesn’t need a chaser. It’s pure, unfiltered, and always within you — no need to call a bartender or a priest.

Brew or Booze—It’s Your Call

In the end, coffee or spirits are just symbols of the choices you make every day: Will you wake up to Truth, or will you keep getting drunk on illusions? Let’s get real — ghosts, booze, and fake spirits only distract you from the real deal. Wake up, take a sip of the Spirit that never fades, and you’ll see — you’ve been brewing the wrong cup all along.

Cheers to clarity!
