I most resonate with this comment -- but I probably have to read the book again. When I read it initially, I thought I was most aligned with Truth, then Love, and had no Power. In hindsight, I think I was way out of touch with all of them. This is because the Truth is I am more Powerful than I had ever imagined since I realized we are One. Of course, it's much easier to feel Love for others when you realize that "But for the Grace of God am I." In other words, if I had those life circumstances and was in that level of consciousness, I wouldn't have acted much differently -- in fact, I know from experience I most likely would not have. Empathy is earned through pain.

Again, I'll have to reread the book to see where I'm at now -- my guess is Love is a bit weaker than the other two because I hate feeling vulnerable despite knowing it many benefits. I suppose the next weakest is Power because I am just putting it into practice. Truth came first. So, Truth, then Power, then Love, I suppose; except I have a lot better idea of what the Truth is, which is very emPowering, which I use with Love.
