If you hand a man a lemon and tell him that its sourness lies outside the lemon he will think you are joking. Yet with a perfectly straight face that same man will tell you that his sour life is caused by external events. – Vernon Howard
What’s the real cause of what’s going on in our lives? Are we responsible for our own happiness?
Today I AM affirming my responsibility over my own life. I AM happy…

A man with one watch knows what time it is; a man with two watches is never quite sure. – Lee Segall
How do we decide what’s right or wrong? On what basis do we make daily decisions? What makes us choose one fork on the road over another? What guides some of our momentous life decisions? How can we be more decisive? How can we think more clearly?
Today I AM aligning with True North. I AM seeking within…

What the caterpillar calls the end of the world, the Master calls the butterfly. – Richard Bach
We are all butterflies in the making. We are diamonds in the rough. What God sees is a massively broad, parallel and multi-dimensional view of our circumscribed life.
Today I AM patient. I understand there’s a larger design. I AM faithful today. All is well.

There’s no blessing that can’t be a disaster, and no disaster that can’t be a blessing. – Richard Bach
Generally after a terrible event occurs we have to wait a real long time to understand what good might come from it. After the massacre in South Carolina last year, lo-behold there was a miracle of grace and faith. Most families simply and genuinely forgave the wielder of that horrendous and unthinkable violence. It was a great testament to their faith in God and God’s love in their life.
Today I AM ready to forgive one and all. God gives me the strength I need to withstand the ‘terrible’ things in my life. I will survive and I will triumph when I partner with my Father!

As moves the part, so moves the whole. – The Urantia Papers (12:7.11)
Like it or not it’s up to me. It’s up to me if the world becomes a better place to live and it’s up to me if love rules every heart. If I change not, then what hope is there for the world?
Today I AM connecting with others. I make bridges not burn them. I seek commonalities. I seek to love and serve.

There is a criterion by which you can judge whether the thoughts you are thinking and the things you are doing are right for you. The criterion is: Have they brought you inner peace? – Peace Pilgrim
Are we at peace? Why not? This has to be our single most important life-pursuit.
Today I AM examining my thoughts. I choose thoughts that make me peaceful…
Recommendation: Peace Pilgrim by Peace Pilgrim
The beauty does not live out there;
the beauty’s in my eyes.
Because how we perceive anything in life, is entirely up to us. We see and experience everything out there, within us. How are we going to experience life today?
Today I AM appreciative of everything I experience. I AM viewing Life like it is the result of a lotto I won, because it is!
