Enjoy it – to the hilt. The day as it comes. People as they come… – Audrey Hepburn

now

We don’t know how much time we have on this planet. We don’t know when things might change in a flash. Now is all we have. Let’s embrace this ancient wisdom.

love

Let’s cherish the day and the lovely people that surround us. Let’s be grateful for everything that we enjoy. And love everyone before they disappear. This is it, now.

Where Are We Looking?

September 25, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

To find that which we need, we must know where to look. – Namaste Now!

where?

I was scrambling. I knew I was looking in all the right places but where did it go? No matter where I looked I just couldn’t find it!

waking up

And then I woke up. I was looking for my ‘precious’ phone and it was exactly where it was supposed to be. As I got out of bed a realization dawned. First, we must look for that which we need, not just for what we want. Second, we won’t find it unless we know where to look. Deep fulfillment can never be found in making more money or buying the next gadget. It’s found somewhere else. Where?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM looking for the Real!

How To Be Free!

September 22, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

We first make our habits, then our habits make us. – John Dryden

chained by habits

Habits are unconscious imperatives that run our lives. We live very habitually. Even the way we think is run by habits. Long held beliefs and assumptions are habits of the mind. We are not free.

freedom

Freedom comes from fresh thinking and living. Living that’s not hobbled by dead habits. Fresh living is when we live in the moment and perceive what’s actually going on. Our memory bank no longer runs our lives. We can then be free!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM perceiving things as they are.

How To Make The Heart Light

September 18, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

Always be first to forgive; and forgive yourself first always. – Dan Zadra

self-hate

What do we not like about our own selves? How does this dislike for self translate to resentment towards others?

forgive

We don’t have to carry any burdens. Whatever happened is ok. Let’s forgive self and then completely forgive others. It’s time to move forward with a light heart! A huge burden lifts as soon as we forgive, we’re now ready to soar!!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM light having forgiven!

Why Be Loud?

September 17, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

If you ask me what I came into this world to do, I will tell you: I came to live out loud. – Emile Zola

loud?

If you ask anyone around me they’ll tell you I prefer quiet, certainly not loud! But that’s not everyone, is it? Many of us like lot’s of action and a splash! Sometimes ‘loud’ is necessary to shake things up!

why not!

We do need to be loud when we see the terrible inequalities and the dire state of the planet around us. Someone has to raise their voice to ensure that everyone else knows what’s going on. We can’t all become Buddhas and expect the tyrants to back-down. Peace is essential but so is bold action!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM LOUD!

Be Happy…

September 2, 2013 Manu Leave a comment

Tell everyone you know: "My happiness depends on me, so you’re off the hook." And then demonstrate it. Be happy, no matter what they’re doing. Practice feeling good, no matter what. And before you know it, you will not give anyone else responsibility for the way you feel — and then, you’ll love them all. Because the only reason you don’t love them, is because you’re using them as your excuse to not feel good. – Abraham

me

My happiness depends on me. Your happiness depends on you. We cannot use others as our excuse to not feel good. Let’s live this truth.

be happy

Be happy now. That’s our goal. Love everyone just the way they are.

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM happy and loving!
