You Never Die

Leave a comment

I want to go on living even after my death,
And therefore I am grateful to God
For giving this gift…
Of expressing all that is in me. – Ann Frank

you’ll be forever

That’s Eternity’s promise to you. What do you make of it? How would life change?

the goal

A corollary to living forever is that everyone around you is also precious. Imagine living, without fear… of any kind. That’s the goal. To live fearlessly, loving others, expressing the Universe in all our ways.

Allow The Energy…

I’ve come to believe that each of us has a personal calling that’s as unique as a fingerprint – and that the best way to succeed is to discover what you love and then find a way to offer it to others in the form of service, working hard, and also allowing the energy of the universe to lead you. – Oprah Winfrey

your personal calling

What do you do naturally and joyfully, which when you do it, adds energy to your being and to the people around you? That is your personal calling. You will thrive when you undertake it.

serve others

Hard work plus a focus on serving others are also important components. Without them you won’t be supporting the Universal purpose. Allow the Universal purpose to be expressed through your being!

Resolved…

Resolved, to live with all my might, while I do live. – Jonathan Edwards

intention

When we intend to do something, that gets the ball rolling. The deeper and more meaningful our intention, the bigger the impact of our original intention on our lives. Resolve to live big, fearlessly and with vigor!

When you really want something to happen, the whole universe conspires so that your wish comes true. – Paulo Coelho in The Alchemist

align with universal forces

Imagine aligning your intention with God’s intentions! That’s the trick to happiness and success in any endeavor. Realize that the Universe is run by an intelligent force. Consequently everything that’s occurring must have a purpose; align with the larger purpose and then the whole universe will conspire with you!

The Next Step?

Leave a comment

The fool wonders, the wise man asks. – Benjamin Disraeli

ask first

We often ask ourselves; what should I do next? That’s a great step forward, we must ask first. What then? Often we keep asking and nothing seems to happen? What’s going on?

then observe

Nothing seems to happen because we’re expecting a certain answer! And we only look for that particular answer and glaze over everything else.

We need to be free of any expectations, and once we’re free, just look!

Look for signs from the Universe. They come to us in an infinite variety of ways, through people, situations, inanimate objects, you name it. Observation is key.

now act

Once you observe something that appears to be a sign. Take the action that’s called for. If you do; more signs will appear, they always do. You’re now actively on your journey of self and Universe discovery!!

It’s Family, Stupid!

Leave a comment

The happiest moments of my life have been the few which I have passed at home in the bosom of my family. – Thomas Jefferson

the meaning of life

A few days ago our family was at the neighborhood Holiday party when a discussion amongst guys turned to the ‘meaning of life’. That’s the kind of discussion I love to participate in so I jumped right in and said ‘The meaning of life is simple’! Everyone stared at me incredulously, their facial expressions read ‘ok tell us wise guy, let’s see you make a fool of yourself’. I said that Life’s meaning and purpose can all be encapsulated in ‘It’s all about family’.

what else is there?

It is all about family. You need someone to share your life with. Joys, sorrows, purpose and fears. Family includes our good friends and neighbors. Our achievements in life are meaningless without deep relationships. If you strip everything out; or when we die, all we’re left with are the sweet memories of loving relationships.
