What It Takes To Be Sane…

Leave a comment

They are sane who never feel persecuted, never feel left out and never feel hurt by anyone or anything.  – Vernon Howard

sanity?

To be sane takes a sane mind. A sane mind is peaceful and remains unaffected by others and circumstances. A sane mind is not serious. It’s playful. It loves to have fun. It’s also curious. It doesn’t get bored.

take it easy!

When we take our selves too seriously we will be hurt. When we put too much attention on us we think life is all about us. It’s little wonder that we get hurt. When we feel important we’re bound to feel left out. Instead let’s stop defending ourselves, let’s stop being aggressive in getting back at others. Let’s breathe deeply and take it easy. We’re good as is. Let the rest of the world fight imaginary emotional battles.

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM taking it easy!

Why Some Things Must Stay Undone…

Leave a comment

Besides the noble art of getting things done, there is a nobler art of leaving things undone. – Lin Yutang

perfection

In our own ways we seek perfection. Some of us want everything super clean. Others want to find what they’ve lost. Still others must finish watching all episodes of a TV show before they feel good. Many want to get it all done.

state of mind

It’ll never get all done. Things around the house won’t stay clean. There will be yet another TV show to start watching. Some things will always stay lost to their ‘owners’. Perfection comes from accepting that life is imperfect. Perfection is just a state of mind. How will we adjust our thinking today?

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM happy just as I AM.

What Does Matter?

Leave a comment

The only thing that matters…  – Neale Donald Walsch

what matters?

A lot of what we do on a daily basis may not matter much from an eternal perspective. Does career matter? Does the decision for our next car matter? Does making the right college choice really matter?

soul’s agenda

If we think that there’s much more to life and reality than meets the eye then the ‘agenda’ for our life must be a spiritual one. If we think that God created everything then our perspective has to be more than a material one. If we believe that we live forever then certainly our ‘soul’ must have a lot to say about our life on this planet!

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM focused on my soul’s agenda!

How To Truly Be Free…

Leave a comment

We are enslaved by anything we do not consciously see. We are freed by conscious perception.  – Vernon Howard

fool self

We fool ourselves. We’re not conscious of our true motives and feelings. Consequently we think we’re a certain way when we’re not. Here’s an example. We show up differently with different folks. We’re a certain way with family and a very different way with a wealthy business tycoon. We may be conscious of this difference but generally not aware of why we do it and while we’re doing it. In everyone’s life there are countless other examples of how we fool self and others.

freedom

As we become more conscious of what we feel deeply versus what we think and then what we actually do, the façade starts to fall. As the façade crumbles we can become free agents in this most amazing experience called Life!

loss

We must lose if we’re to gain. If we’re up we’ll surely see the downside. Nature and Life flow in such a cyclical rhythm. Can’t avoid loss. How do we deal with it?

How To Have a ‘Significant’ Life!

Leave a comment

The more significance you give the moment, the more the moment has the opportunity to be significant.  – Meditation Society of Australia

moments

Life is made up of moments. Each breath is precious. We know this; it’s not rocket science. Then why do we fritter away precious moments?

significance

First we must decide on the highest use for the time at our disposal. Time is the most precious commodity. Ask any dying person. We are dying too, except for most of us the process is so slow that we end up not valuing the time we do have. Once we know how to best use our time we may have a shot at bathing each moment with the significance it deserves…

Daily Affirmation: Today I AM fully awake to each moment!

How To Understand Life…

Leave a comment

If you do not know how to explain life you need only relax and let True Life explain itself to you. – Vernon Howard

the big questions

Why do we exist? What is Life all about? What part do we play here? Where are we headed? How can we be happy? What’s the best way to live?

q & a

We ask and Life will respond. Any question asked earnestly and with humility will be answered if we’re patient and open minded. We shouldn’t come from the perspective that we know our way around and can figure everything out. A ‘know it all’ attitude keeps us from the Truth. We must be open enough to see what’s being revealed. And revealed it must be. We are the creator’s offspring and are born with innumerable privileges. We refuse to realize what we have. The trick is to ask and then observe…
