Why We’re Blest!

When such as I cast out remorse

So great a sweetness flows into the breast

We must laugh and we must sing,

We are blest by everything,

Everything we look upon is blest. 

William Butler Yeats

blest

It’s mostly up to us, how we see our selves, our surroundings and life itself. As we see, so we project, as we project, our life is created. You are the architect of your life. Never blame others or circumstances. Ask self first, how should I react, what can I do…? When we see life as holy, ourselves as holy, we bless everything as life itself blesses us!!

affirmations

I AM blessed. I AM happy. I laugh and I sing. I rejoice. All is well, and it always ends well. I AM grateful for it all and can’t wait for the next adventure to begin! Thank you God, for everything!

Why Smile?

Actually, smiling or laughing for no reason at all is one of the best reasons to smile or laugh. Because doing either, turns wheels in the unseen, rearranges players in your life, and summons reason after reason after reason. Grins.The Universe

grin Smile

Let’s smile more. Laughter should be common-place in our lives. If we can’t enjoy and appreciate our lives daily, then life isn’t worth living. We make it more worthwhile by laughing and smiling often. Let’s just do that!

affirmations

Today I AM smiling. I smile on my face and on the inside. I love life! I appreciate all that I AM and that I have. I smile when I wake up. I laugh at everything silly and funny. I smile when I spot a family member or a friend. I smile when I see another smile. I laugh often. Life couldn’t be better!

What Mantras Do We Use?

Your words are simply the thoughts of yours that will become things the soonest.The Universe

refrains=mantras

What are our common refrains? Do we often say things like: ‘Life isn’t fair’, ‘I hate traffic’, ‘I hate person x’, ‘This thing never works’, ‘Why does this happen to me all the time’? Guess what, words manifest into reality. We should be very careful choosing not just our thoughts but the words we utter. Words uttered as refrains become our mantras. Mantras are powerful!

affirmations=mantras

I AM God’s child. All things good happen to me today and everyday. It all works out for me. I end up in the right place and at the right time. Everyone loves me. I love everyone and am ready to serve them. People give me what I need. Life is endlessly generous to me. I AM happy.

Where To Next?

Follow your bliss.Joseph Campbell

bliss

The words are very precise, Joseph doesn’t say follow your desires or follow your happiness…

Bliss is defined as follows by the Dictionary:

  • complete happiness: perfect happiness
  • spiritual joy: a state of spiritual joy

The definition begs the question, what isperfect happinessand/orspiritual joy’?

We must answer that for self. And to answer that question we must know self.

So know self first, understand what makes us happy for the long run, understand our bliss and follow it…

affirmations

Today I AM following my bliss. I notice what makes me happy. I understand the tasks that fulfill me. I recognize the people who lift me and complete me. I find happiness assisting others. I AM guided by Spirit which gently leads me to a state of spiritual joy. I see God in everyone else and my whole day is blissful!

How To Deal With Irritating Folks!

If some one irritates you, causes feelings of resentment, you should sympathetically seek to discern his viewpoint, his reasons for such objectionable conduct. If once you understand your neighbor, you will become tolerant, and this tolerance will grow into friendship and ripen into love.  – The Urantia Papers

peace among all

Understanding and love among all is the only way the planet will eventually find peace. How will such a thing happen? Not by God doing it for us or by some other magical means. It must be achieved little by little and one person at a time. It will only happen when you and I change. When such a change becomes apparent to our family and neighbors, they will wonder what it was that changed us! Then the virus of love and understanding can spread to them and eventually to all we touch, which is the entire planet! This is the prescription for love, peace and happiness that we all seek!

affirmations

Today I AM love. My interactions with everyone else are based on this love. I truly listen to all. I understand them and their situations. I AM slowing creating heaven out there by being peaceful and loving in here. I AM not judgmental, I understand that everyone’s walking their own path. I notice God’s handiwork in everyone’s life. I AM blessed!

How We Think Matters…

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.William Shakespeare

our thoughts

A big root of all unhappiness and dissatisfaction with life is our judgmental way of looking at ourselves, others and the world around us. Which is why it pays to watch our thoughts as much as possible. Most times we lose ourselves in our thoughts. We become our thoughts. Become aware of the fact that we are experiencing our thoughts, we are not our thoughts. The latter is what we experience mostly.

As soon as we separate our conscious, witnessing mind from the constant chatter, we are able to tune into a timeless wisdom and peace. This experience expands in proportion to the time we spend in such moments, called Now.

affirmations

Today I AM the master of my thoughts. I create them, I choose them, I don’t let them run wild. I AM a designer of my thoughts and therefore my experiences. I know I AM a child of God and am responsible for all creation within my realm. I AM thankful for it all.

How To Be More Patient…

For everything there is a season, and a time for every matter under heaven.  – Ecclesiastes 3:1

patience and time

The universe is constantly evolving according to God’s master plan. Looks like God wants to…

    • share herself by multiplying self

    • experience life from other perspectives

    • join her offspring in satisfying and everlasting relationships

      Knowing that our life is part of an unfolding (and mostly unknown) larger purpose allows us to become more patient.

      To achieve his purposes God created Space. For anything to move inside Space requires Time. So Space and Time go hand-in-hand. God in undertaking this massive ‘experiment’ allows for as much time as is necessary to achieve his purposes. This is the reason why given our limited perspective we get frustrated and impatient. We don’t understand the overall picture. One way to become more patient is to ruminate over this idea and focus our attention on the ‘Now’ moment. Now is all that is.

      affirmations

      Today I AM at peace with life. I have all the time I need. I need not be in a hurry. God’s watching and fully participating in my life and in this Universe. I live an adventurous life and am very happy with all that’s going on. I go where Life leads me. I flow with life and life flows through me…
