Peace ~ Sept. 30. 2011

I was reading through my blogs this morning; I use a firefox add-on called Live Bookmarks to keep up with them.  I'm not sure exactly how many I follow, but if I miss a couple of days overwhelm can set in.  Anyway, I had finally gotten all caught up and there was one post I decided not to read; went to click "Mark feed as read" and clicked on "Mark the whole list as read" instead. Sooooo maybe I didn't really want to read those posts after all. At first I wasn't to happy about it.  Now I'm at peace with it.  There must have been a reason why I wasn't supposed to read those posts.


Quotes

Life is a celebration and if we attune ourselves spiritually we can experience meaningful transformation. The peace within you is a blessing to be shared. Step joyfully into the future and know that as you embrace your magnificence you raise the consciousness of humanity. Love your divinity and let every moment of every day be a mystical experience  that takes your soul to the next level. ~ Micheal Teal


We could learn alot from crayons; some are sharp, some are pretty, some are dull, while others bright, some have weird names, but they all have learned to live in the same box.
~ unknown

Until he extends his circle of compassion to include all living things, man will not himself find peace. ~ Albert Schweitzer

Dreams ~ August 26, 2011

What keeps you from moving towards your dreams?  Fear . . . fear of what? Failure? What others may say? I do not believe there is ever a reason to not move towards your dream. I know that it is not always easy and there may be some things that stand in our way. As long as we always move forward one step in front of the other we will eventually get there.

Quotes

Tell your heart that the fear of suffering is worse than the suffering itself. And no heart has ever suffered when it goes in search of its dream. ~ Paulo Coelho

~ Pursuing your dreams is a joyful process, we should do it as often as we can. Never mind the fear, naysayers and what ever else holds us back. How can pursuing your dreams ever be wrong.

The distance between your dreams and your reality is always traversable.  If you can dream it, you can make it so. ~ Daisaku Ikeda

~ Absolutely. We are never given a dream without also being given the ability to make them come true.

Our truest life is when we are in dreams awake. ~ Henry David Thoreau

~ Because that means we are living our dream.  What could be better than that?

You Can't What ~ First a warning . . . some may find the language of this blog post offensive, for that I am sorry. I am not sorry for sharing it though. Because, language aside, it is a great post about telling the the cant's, etc. to move out of your way.  


Today is Your Day ~ “Let us not bankrupt our todays by paying interest on the regrets of yesterday and by borrowing in advance the troubles of tomorrow.” ~ Ralph W. Sockman

Waves of a serene life pass over us from time to time, like flakes of sunlight over the fields in cloudy weather. ~ Henry David Thoreau
