Quotes - 2014, Stillness

Why Be Quiet?

The quieter you become the more you can hear. – Ram Dass

it’s all good

True silence can do wonders. True silence is that of the mind not that of the audible kind. As we become more still, we can observer better, we listen more intently, we perceive a lot more and our sense of intuition flowers! Inspiration and creativity is heightened when we let our mind settle down naturally.

How do you do that?

Watch yourself. Watch as thoughts arise, notice their origin, and where they lead you. Observe how you act or react to any incident. Get to know yourself intimately, in this fashion. Your effortless watching of self leads to a quiet alertness that connects you to the essence of all that is. A peace beyond understanding, a joy inexpressible, then emerges!

affirmations

Today I AM still. I AM peaceful. I AM connected. I AM joy.

What’s Our Purpose?

Learn to get in touch with silence within yourself and know that everything in this life has purpose. There are no mistakes, no coincidences, all events are blessings given to us to learn from. – Elisabeth Kübler-Ross

it’s all good

Do we ever get the feeling that everything’s got to have a purpose, that we have got to have a purpose, otherwise all that we do is for naught? Well that’s exactly how it is. There’s a purpose and a season for everything and everyone.

Questions:

  • What is our purpose in life?
  • What have events in our life prepared us to do, today?
  • Or what are they preparing us to do eventually?

Answers to these questions and real direction can be had if we but “learn to get in touch with silence within yourself”. Are we going to try that?

affirmations

Today I AM still and feeling good. I AM confident that all’s well. I can feel God’s blessings in my life. And am ready to embrace each new moment!

What’s Most Precious?

Nothing is worth more than this day. – Goethe

precious

How often do we forget? We start thinking each day is just like another, mundane and boring. Don’t we all do that? Why do we forget that each day is truly unique, every moment that we breathe is like none other before? This is actually a testament to God’s creativity that everyone and everything is brand new, moment by moment and daily!

So let’s breathe in this perspective and enjoy each moment as best we can. Enjoy this day as one that’ll be gone forever, soon. Realize that maybe this is the last year of our life, how should we live it? Let’s go kick some tires, smell some roses, peck some cheeks and yell ‘hooray’!

affirmations

Today I AM getting it. This is it and I AM going to make the most of it. I AM blessed and this moment and day is complete. Today I will live it up. And be thankful for everything!

How Achieve Our Goals!

To achieve your goal, your life may sound like a perfume counter – full of Passion and Obsession, leading to Joy. – John-Roger McWilliams

be fragrant

What is our goal in life? Passion and obsession about any goal will do at least 2 things: Either it’s a goal worth pursuing in which case we’ll be closer to our Life Purpose. Which only leads to more passion and joy! Or we’ll learn a lesson or two during our journey in the pursuit of a goal that eventually turns out to be not that fulfilling, in which case we’ll still be closer to our Life Purpose! Being passionate about any goal ain’t such a bad thing! Let’s go be a fragrant being!

affirmations

Today I AM Joyous, Obsessed and Passionate about goals worth pursuing! I know I can’t make any wrong decisions. I AM a driven child of God who pays attention to all that’s true, beautiful and good! I AM happy!!

What Do We Regret?

Regret for the things we did can be tempered by time; it is regret for things we did not do that is inconsolable. – Sydney J. Harris

regrets

Our other regrets come from ways we couldn’t be. Like when we couldn’t be loving and patient, especially with our kids or our parents. Regret is a lot of wasted energy. Instead of wallowing in what we couldn’t do or be, lets Do what we need to do and Be what we need to be, starting right now. Then, we won’t have any ‘inconsolable’ regrets!

affirmations

Today I AM acting. I AM being and doing what I need to do. I AM loving. I AM happy. I AM thankful.

Are We Mad?

You have everything but one thing: madness. A man needs a little madness or else – he never dares cut the rope and be free. – Zorba The Greek

madness

Why are we so timid when it comes to doing what’s best for us? We go about life, daily, in a humdrum fashion thinking that we have an eternity on Earth.

Why are we so fearful of taking the next step? We make all kinds of excuses to get to the most important things in life, the one’s that need our attention next.

Why?

When we care less about others and what they think of us, we can be more of ourselves and that magical madness can start to do its wonders…

Let’s Unhook!

affirmations

Today I AM mad! I AM mad for what matters. I AM mad for what’s right and for what needs to be done! I AM madly in love!
