Being It, Living It…

Be kind and merciful. Let no one ever come to you without coming away better and happier. Be the living expression of God’s kindness. – Mother Teresa

being it

What will happen, if we decide to ‘be’ a certain way, first? In other words become kind and merciful internally, in our demeanor and exude such emotions? What will follow?

living it

We’re told not to pretend and to be real, but pretending to be kind, loving and nice can translate to reality. With enough practice of course. Give it a shot. This principle applies to anything else we really want to ‘be’, effort is still required…

Quotes - 2010

Best Of Times…

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness, it was the epoch of belief, it was the epoch of incredulity, it was the season of Light, it was the season of Darkness, it was the spring of hope, it was the winter of despair, we had everything before us, we had nothing before us, we were all going direct to heaven, we were all going direct the other way …

– Charles Dickens

the present

It’s in the eye of the beholder and how we’re experiencing it. It is the best of times for many of us, especially those who have loving families, want for nothing and are happy. It’s also the worst of times for many of our brethren, the countless who are poor, ill, heart-broken, in despair and without hope. It was essentially the same 200 years ago as it is today.

up to us

There’s reality and then there’s what we can do with it. Our attitudes, perceptions, beliefs, assumptions, intentions and affirmations will decide how we live today and tomorrow. What perspective will we choose?

Quotes - 2010

Feelings…

Never apologize for showing feeling.  When you do so, you apologize for the truth.  Benjamin Disraeli

what we feel

What we feel is what we are. From our feelings we truly know, not just through our intellect, what’s good/bad, right or wrong. In fact feelings are a great guide to what we’re thinking. When thinking positive and happy, we have happy feelings, when worried or fearful our feelings reflect just that. So if we ever want to be cognizant of our thinking, let’s ask  “How am I feeling right now?’

the truth

Let’s acknowledge the fullness of our being by accepting our feelings. Let’s do the same in others. Let’s not disparage a person who appears to ‘feel’ more than ‘think’, who is more ‘emotional’ than logical. All is valuable. Let’s hone in on that which is of value.

Daily Affirmation: Today I value feeling.

Bad Luck

Bad luck is universal. Don’t take it personally.  – Solomon Short

bad and good

Bad and good is often in the eye of the beholder and in the way the chips ultimately fall. What’s bad for us today may turn out to be good for a larger group of people than just you and I, even for you and I. Luck is often a matter of expectation. The thoughts and expectations that consume us daily resolve into our life today and tomorrow…

taking it personally

The world is not all about us. When others are unkind, it’s not about us, it’s mainly about them. We lash out at others, get angry and make judgments because of our own universe of thought and experiences. When good comes our way it’s ok to take it personally, although when it goes away we’ll feel sadder. When ‘bad’ comes our way, then certainly it’s not about us. Let’s accept reality for what it is and figure out a way forward…You are not alone.

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM my good luck.

Quotes - 2010

Believe, You Must

Skywalker: "I don’t believe it".
Yoda: "That, is why you failed".

 

belief expands

Ok so why does believing first, work? When we believe, when we have faith, we expand our mind and its horizons. It’s like studying a map before venturing on a mountain adventure. We know in advance that a path exists or is possible and that does the trick. When possibility doesn’t exist in our minds, we often don’t see it even when staring at it.

growth and expansion

We grow only when we have faith and belief. The child when learning to walk will put her foot forward even though she has never walked or has already failed at previous attempts. Something inside her tells her, it’s possible… When something becomes possible in our mind, the Universe swings into action. It’s God’s purpose to further creation, through us, in our unique ways…

Daily Affirmation: Today I embrace possibilities.

Become Visionary!

With vision there is no room to be frightened. No reason for intimidation. It’s time to march forward! Let’s be confident and positive! – Charles R. Swindoll 

what’s stopping us?

Why does fear have such a hold on us?

Imagine living a life without fear of failure or without the deep fear of extinction that we all carry around with us…

How can one live a fearless life?

positivity conquers

We are a bundle of vibrations. From the smallest cell in our bodies to the highest thought, it’s all energy and vibration! We must produce positive vibrations, we must dwell in positivity, we must repel negative ones coming from people around us. The way forward can only be good, it can only be discovered in confidence and it can only be created out of vision. Allow the creativity and vision that craves expression through you, a unique and magical child of the Universe, to burst forth!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM magically creative!
