Sit loosely in the saddle of life. – Robert Louis Stevenson
If we grasp too tightly we’ll get tired, be stressed and miss out on what else is going on. We must let go and start to flow. The journey is the end.
Let’s be like children. We play and then we rest. Life happens and we still get to grow and have a blast! What else is there?
Daily Affirmation: Today I AM flowing through life!

I could see peace instead of this. – A Course in Miracles – ACIM
What we see is up to us. Often we only see what we’re conditioned to see. When we invoke our divine gift of self-consciousness and self-awareness we can make wonders happen in our lives!
If we’re at peace within then that’s what we’ll reflect and project outwardly. On what will we focus our attention today?
Daily Affirmation: Today I AM choosing peace and love…

There are only two types of people. Those you now love. And, those you will love. – Mike Dooley
Most animals love their offspring and would do anything to protect them. Loving the people we know already is far easier than loving those we don’t know yet.
We’re destined to love everyone. Everyone. If there was ever an ultimate goal this is it. This is a ‘life purpose’ that’s applicable to us all. The sooner we understand this idea, embrace it and apply it the better it’ll be for everyone!

It never does end... – Namaste Now!
Life and all relationships are eternal. They’re forever. That’s assuring and scary at the same time. Scary because some of our relationships aren’t ideal and we might dread having them forever!
Unless a relationship is abusive we shouldn’t run away from it. The reason we’re in any situation is to capture valuable learning from it If we leave a relationship before learning what we must, our ‘’freedom’ will be short-lived. It’s best we try and understand why we’re experiencing what we’re going through…
Daily Affirmation: Today I AM understanding why I AM where I AM…

We cannot change the cards we are dealt, just how we play the hand. – Randy Pausch
The real power to move forward comes from first accepting what is. When we’re ok with what is, we’re free to look ahead and design our future.
Our attitude determines how we feel and therefore what we can accomplish. It’s forever true that ‘Attitude is the mind’s paintbrush, it can color any situation’. How will we ‘play’ the hand we’ve been dealt today?
Daily Affirmation: Today I AM childlike in my attitude!

Nineteen thousand children are dying every day. Does it really matter that we’re not walking past them in the street? – Peter Singer: The why and how of effective altruism
Mostly unbeknownst to us the poorest of the poor suffer, daily. 19,000 children die daily. OMG!!!
Does the suffering have to be in our face for us to react to it? What must we do, today?
Daily Affirmation: Today I AM thinking of my whole family…

The salvation of this human world lies nowhere else than in the human heart, in the human power to reflect, in human meekness and human responsibility. – Vaclav Havel
The world is a huge mess. Poverty, inequality, unhappiness, confusion and much more…Where do we even begin? It all just sounds too overwhelming.
The process can start right here though, within us, in our hearts and in the hearts of everyone around us. In reflection we can understand what’s right and what’s not. In our humility we can set out to understand our neighbor, first. And collectively we can realize our responsibility towards all that works and doesn’t on our shared planet. It’s at the level of the heart that problems and solutions must be grasped.
Daily Affirmation: Today I AM grasping it all via my heart…
