of others." -Pericles

wealth while others starve should be a source of shame." -

If
you want happiness for an hour, take a nap.
If you want happiness for a day, go fishing.
If you want happiness for a month, get married.
If you want happiness for a year, inherit a fortune.
If you want happiness for a lifetime, help others.
~ Chinese proverb

from the talkative, tolerance from the intolerant, and
kindness from the unkind."
Kahlil Gibran
Dream On
Why have we forgotten how to dream? With our innocence gone,
and the entertainment industry doing all the work for us, we
quickly lose our capacity to dream possible futures. Stop.
Close your eyes. And dream again. Put the stars in your
dreams. And then reach for them. No need to struggle. Simply
nurture the dream, sustain the vision, and watch it come
true. It must, it's the law.

Think No Evil.
"See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil." Do not even
think evil, because first you think of something, then
you speak of it, then you see it. |

after a period of days, unless it is repeated or reinforced
in a
conscious way.

heart-centered emotions, the mind-centered words and

"When you arise in the morning, give
thanks for the morning light, for your life and strength. Give thanks for your
food and the joy of living. If you see no reason for giving thanks, the fault
lies with yourself."
Tecumseh, Shawnee Chief
~Attitude~
When you extend pure
love to everyone
with selfless motivation that is an attitude of kindness.
When you send good wishes and pure feelings to those
who are in deep sorrow, that is an attitude of mercy.
When you see the virtues rather than the weaknesses in
people that is an attitude of compassion.
When you bless and uplift someone even as they defame
you, that is an attitude of forgiveness.
When you tolerate a situation and take responsibility
as well as give cooperation even when not appreciated, that is an attitude
of humility and self-respect.
Every second, every moment and every breath of your
life is nurtured by attitude.

''To give it all is to receive it
all''
To laugh often and much;
to win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;
to earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
to appreciate beauty,
to find the best in others;
to leave the world a bit better,
whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch
or a redeemed social condition;
to know even one life has breathed
easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.
- Ralph Waldo Emerson
Face the sun

Like attracts like........
Middle age is when
broadness of the mind and narrowness of the waist
change places.
We find our happiness to the extent to which we use our minds to
bless the
world, for that is the natural use of our mind. It is the reason we were
born.
The value in your own life must come
from you. You cannot take it from
someone else, or borrow it, or inherit it, or marry it, or just get lucky and
happen
upon it. You must produce it. Your life has meaning only to the extent that
you make something of it. Only to the extent that you make your own unique
contribution to the world.
"I hope your heart will hear my message.
I hope my song will warm your world.
I hope my love will brighten your darkness."
"To be unforgiving is like
taking the poison yourself, and expecting the
other person to die from it!"
The outer world is always changing...the inner never
does.
"There are only two ways to live
your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though
everything is a miracle."- Albert Einstein (1879-1955)
Blessed are those
who can give
without remembering
and take without
forgetting.
Everybody can be great...because anybody can serve. You
don't have to
have a college degree to serve. You don't have to make your subject
and verb agree to serve. You only need a heart full of grace. A soul
generated by love.
Martin Luther King Jr.
You cannot change other people. You cannot even heal
other people. All you
can do is be the catalyst, the person who helps someone to reach their own
potential at the time they are ready. But in the end, they each heal
themselves
when and if they are ready to be healed. Each person progresses only at the
pace they are able to progress. You can help. You can point out a path. You
can open doors. You can be there to pick them up when they fall and help them
to step forward again.
Let us be slow to judge and quick to forgive, show
patience, empathy and
love.
"Out of clutter, find Simplicity.
From discord, find Harmony. In the middle of difficulty lies opportunity."
- Albert Einstein
A New View
A friend shared this moment of awakening. She
was moaning, "I never get anything done." Her companion replied, "Perhaps
you never get EVERYTHING done." Oh.... of course!
A shift in perspective can bring both
understanding and release. "Besides learning to see, there is another art to
be learned -- not to see what is not."
-- Maria Mitchell
One mans meat is another mans poison
To live a creative life we must
lose our fear of being wrong
Joseph Chilton Pearce
"Whenever news comes that seems
bad, consider this. Would The Universe give you a questionable gift? Do not be
misled by the wrapping on the box, but open it with trust. And if you still do
not understand the meaning of the gift, be still and wait. The Universe does not
give questionable gifts. Often you will not know this meaning of the gift until
the gift is put to work in your life. That can be frustrating, but it is
inevitable. The gifts of The Universe do not feed your ego expectations. Their
value is of a higher order. They help you open to your true nature and purpose
here. Sometimes they seem to close a door and you don't understand
why. Only when the right door opens do you understand why the wrong door was
closed."
Paul Ferrini
When a problem becomes an
opportunity.........
How is a problem in your life
really an opportunity? Problems invite us to go inside to recognize a bigger
picture of ourselves and of life. This bigger picture brings meaning to what is
unfolding. When you feel trapped in a problem, see if you can shift your
perspective. Ask yourself, "What is my soul inviting me to learn from this
situation?" The answer will always revolve around a quality or value, like
gratitude, freedom, compassion, love, will, humour or acceptance. The answer
will also always promote union rather than separation.
As soon as we find the meaning in
our challenge, our resistance to it melts away. Often, awareness of the lesson
is all that is needed to resolve the problem. If not, the awareness brings us
courage and ways to work through it.
"The period of greatest gain in
knowledge and experience is the most difficult period in one's life."
-- Dalai Lama
