Why Life Must Be Play!

…that without knowing who you are and why you are here, life has no meaning.Neale Donald Walsch

searching for meaning

Our current dissatisfaction with life, our recurring need to find that which we can’t name and our restless nature are all clues. They are clues to the fact that there’s more, that our current life isn’t enough and that we must peer deeper…

find the play!

We’re searching for meaning in our lives. Once we recognize that essential drive then things start to become clearer. Self-awareness will allow us to accept Life’s various clues, suggestions and enticements! Once we start playing the game that the Universe wants us to play then life becomes an exciting daily adventure! Come let’s play!

The Most Important Thing!

… it is only the feeling of vulnerability that ever puts you into a vibrational harmony with that which you fear. When you realize that by working to achieve your feeling of Well-being, it is then impossible for you to ever rendezvous with anything other than Well-being — that is the only place that freedom will ever be. Abraham

joy = freedom

We must rejoice! We must appreciate all that we have and are. By doing that we’re achieving the most important thing. Why is that?

vibration

When we move in joy we’re at a very high emotional/thought level. From that place we will have the best:

  • Relationships because we don’t demand anything from anyone else. And to stay joyous we must be selfless and helpful.
  • Health because a joyous person attracts the best health possible.
  • Life in general because nothing but goodness will come our way!

When unsavory events do cross our paths, we’ll be well prepared to deal with them. How’s that possible?

To be ever joyous we have be unafraid, we have to realize that we live in a very friendly universe and know that an intelligence far greater than us is looking after us!

The Essential Secret To Health & Happiness!

The secret of health for both mind and body is not to mourn for the past, worry about the future, or anticipate troubles, but to live in the present moment wisely and earnestly.  – Buddha

fear and worry

Our biggest enemy is fear. It drives a lot of our behavior. We regret the past and apply too much emotional energy thinking about it. We should only allow pleasant reminiscing. And we should try not to dwell on what may go wrong.

namaste now!

The finest way to live is to inhabit the current moment and do so filled with love. That is this blog’s core message. Live intensely in the present moment, fearlessly, full of love, expecting goodness and while being of real value to others. If there ever was a formula for life this is it…

Why We Are Challenged…

People do not grow when their environment is too comfortable, when they are not challenged.  – Daisaku Ikeda

adversity

We are lazy and we refuse to learn from history. Our only true learning comes from facing life challenges directly. Our planet is just the right place to live a life full of rich challenges. We’re forced out of our stupor and must rise to meet any situation that the Universe designs for us!

the prize

Why were we chosen to live this life? What part do we play in all this? What do we get out of this? Why is it the way it is? All these questions will be answered in due time and to our full satisfaction. Until then it’s our task to live life fully, fearlessly, lovingly and continue to seek answers! Life is interesting!

Live Life King Size…

Believers react to this temporal life as if immortality already were within their grasp.  – The Urantia Papers

faith

This is faith. To believe in the ultimate triumph of the life we live on this planet. To know that we’re safe, that we’re guided and that everything is working for an ultimate good. To trust in the goodness of this Universe. And to accept that God loved us before we got here. All is well.

live life king size

So how does our life, our attitude and our experience change, if we live as though we are immortal? When will we realize that we’re no paupers but are princes and princesses in a kingdom that our Father runs? When will we kick fear in its figurative butt? When will we start celebrating life, daily?

What It Takes To Relax…

Tension is who you think you should be. Relaxation is who you are.  – Chinese Proverb

what ought to be

Tension is what we think we should be. Stress is made up of regrets of the past and anticipation of the future. Turmoil is when we appear to lose control over our lives. Despair is when nothing seems to go right. We’re unhappy and fearful because we think it’s all up to us.

what is

We can be relaxed when we’re good with what we are. We’re peaceful when we trust that all is well. We’re joyous when we realize that we’re God’s own children! Let’s live up to the faith we’re capable of, let’s relax in the bosom of this friendly and loving Universe in which we reside. All is well, all will continue to stay well!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM relaxed because I AM.

How To Heal Anything…

The soul always knows what to do to heal itself. The challenge is to silence the mind.  – Caroline Myss

we don’t have to

We don’t have to figure it all out. Universal Intelligence longs to engage with us. We just need to open the doorway to our soul and allow the natural course of events to unfold. It appears difficult because we think we’re all by ourselves, separate and must take care of it all…

stillness

The challenge is how do we become still and listen. Once we learn to tap into the ever flowing river of love inside us, then it’s smoother sailing. Watch this space for a guided step by step process to do just that. Learn how to realize God’s presence and experience how simple it is…
