From the Text, Chapter 18, V. The Happy Dream.

Before you begin:  Set a silent intention - I will place all my special relationships on the altar in my mind.

(As I say the below prayer and think all those that are joining together in Spirit.)

T-18.V.6.              When you feel the holiness of your relationship is threatened by anything, stop instantly and offer the Holy Spirit your willingness, in spite of fear, to let Him exchange this instant for the holy one that you would rather have. 2 He will never fail in this. 3 But forget not that your relationship is one, and so it must be that whatever threatens the peace of one is an equal threat to the other. 4 The power of joining its blessing lies in the fact that it is now impossible for you or your brother to experience fear alone, or to attempt to deal with it alone. 5 Never believe that this is necessary, or even possible. 6 Yet just as this is impossible, so is it equally impossible that the holy instant come to either of you without the other. 7 And it will come to both at the request of either.

T-18.V.7.              Whoever is saner at the time the threat is perceived should remember how deep is his indebtedness to the other and how much gratitude is due him, and be glad that he can pay his debt by bringing happiness to both. 2 Let him remember this, and say:

3 I desire this holy instant for myself, that I may share it with my brother, whom I love.

4 It is not possible that I can have it without him, or he without me.

5 Yet it is wholly possible for us to share it now.

6 And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us, and keep us both in peace.
