Leave a comment

It is only about what you are, right now, in this red hot fresh moment emitting.  – Abraham

now

How are we feeling right now? What’s the state of our mind? Are we content and happy? What are our thoughts about others?

awareness

The awareness of now and where we are in relation to it is important. Now is indeed a ‘fresh’ moment and how we show up in it is what matters. Let’s assert control over our thoughts and feelings. We then become kings and queens of our destiny!

Why We Suffer…

Leave a comment

People see themselves as the center of the universe and judge everything as it relates to them.  – Peace Pilgrim

us

Life is mostly about us. And therein lies the rub. It’s super hard for us to get out of our own skin. We can’t truly understand the other’s point-of-view.

them

Most relationship problems exist because of the expectations we have of others. And these expectations are born from our own selfish outlook. We must look into our own heart before we attempt to judge others…

Why We Should be Alive!

Leave a comment

I would rather be ashes than dust!
I would rather that my spark should burn out
    in a brilliant blaze than it should be stifled by dry-rot.
I would rather be a superb meteor, every atom
    of me in magnificent glow, than a sleepy and permanent planet.
The function of man is to live, not to exist.
I shall not waste my days trying to prolong them.
I shall use my time.

– Jack London

timid

How alive are we? What fears do we allow to dominate us? What’s holding us back? Why are we so timid?

awaken

Let’s breathe in the deepest breaths of air possible! Let’s exhaust every molecule of oxygen that we breathe in! We are children of God. We can imagine, create and deliver just about anything! Let’s do it!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM more alive than ever before!

What Is Meditation?

Leave a comment

Meditation is the dissolution of thoughts in pure consciousness, knowing without thinking… – Voltaire

awareness

One goal of meditation is to just become aware of what’s going on without creating thoughts about what’s going on. This practice becomes easier as we just sit and be, regularly. It’s also achievable when we’re amidst nature and just taking in the beauty that surrounds us.

peace

As we reduce the creation of thoughts that describe what’s going on, we begin to experience an ineffable peace. This peace is deeply satisfying and connects us to the ‘pure consciousness’ that undergirds the entire universe!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM simply observing without creating thoughts!

What Are We Planning?

Leave a comment

Whatever you’re thinking about is literally like planning a future event. When you’re worrying, you are planning. When you’re appreciating you are planning…  – Abraham

thinking

We are always thinking. What do we dwell on? On what kind of thoughts do we mostly settle? What’s our leaning? What do we expect in life? What do we believe will happen to us?

create

We can take charge and create our life rather than react to it. It’s in our control. Do we have the strength and determination to command our monkey brain? How will we benefit? When will we start?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM the architect of my thoughts and therefore my life!

Why We Are Human Beings…

Leave a comment

We work to become, not to acquire.  – Elbert Hubbard

beings

As someone wise has said before, we are human ‘beings’ not human ‘doings’. All that we undertake is to become something more, to grow, be different, wiser and happier. We can only acquire soul qualities during this lifetime, nothing material can cross beyond the veil.

values

So let’s be very clear about why we work. We are spiritual beings doing spiritual work on this planet. We are God’s children at play. Where will we find our joy today?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM joyful!
