More Things To Think About:

Stand your ground.

Objectivity gives you emotional distance; which makes you feel safe.

You can't control your feelings but you can control your behaviour.

You already know the answer.

How did things get this far?

When you're too close to something,you can't see it for what it is.It takes distance to see it.

Be careful and be mindful of the way you lean for one day you just might fall that way.

Failure is a result,not a cause.

Without words you say it all.

Is the truth really the truth unless it can be proven?

A lit porch may attract moths but darkness attracts all sorts of critters.

You can't take it back but you can move forward.

You can't use the past to fill in what's missing in the present.

To talk about someone gives them power.

Sometimes when you reach out to someone they retreat.

It takes two to create an emotional bond but only one to break it.

Sometimes the best thing you can do is to stand back;let things play out no matter how hard that may be.

Don't be too offended by someone who is openly rude to you because they may be that way for the nicest of reasons.

Sometimes it is for the best to keep your mouth shut.

People tend to run away from what they don't understand.

If you want to see the future,learn from the past.

Why do we always chase the ones that run away?

You can't move on till you figure out what happened.

Sometimes you have to lose something in order to see the value of it.

He who does not understand your silence will never understand your words.

Don't promise tomorrow when you can't buy back yesterday.

Shhhhhhhhhhh.........

Peace AND Quiet, it's not just a quiet within.

It subtly radiates and envelopes me, very much like an aura.

Take the time to be quiet today. 

Intuition is subtle and often cannot be felt over the noise and chaos of the world. Give yourself the gift of quietly being with the love and light of your beautiful spirit.

So much happens in the quiet within, where all the momentum happens... on that blank canvas. 

Awakening and answers occur when I allow myself to be quiet long enough, not allowing outside voices or perceptions get in the way. 

Experiencing something fresh and in the moment's truth so much unfolding happens.

All one needs to do to get past the verbiage is sit quietly alone long enough to experience their own inner majesty.

You do not have to wait for wisdom to befall you in order to know what move to make now. The wisdom, the insight, the answer you have been waiting for is waiting for you. It is already inside of you.

This poem by, Winifred Emma May, for the energy and power found in such quiet!

"If you stand very still in the heart of a wood

you will hear many wonderful things-

the snap of a twig, the wind in the trees,

and the whirr of invisible wings."

"If you stand very still in the turmoil of life

and wait for the voice from within-

you'll be led down the quiet ways of wisdom and peace

in a mad world of chaos and din."

"If you stand very still and you hold to your faith

you will get all the help that you ask.

You will draw from the silence the things you need

-hope and courage, and strength for you task."

I call it divine guidance.

Self-discipline is the cornerstone of any endeavour.....

It does not matter what the endeavour is that you aspire to, without self-discipline it will most likely not be successful. 

Self-discipline is the cornerstone of any successful endeavour, whether it is obtaining a good education or perfecting our skills.

It requires a lot of self-discipline to make yourself get up and workout when all you feel like doing is vagging out on the couch in front of the television and staring mindlessly at that colourful box. 

Without self-discipline, that is probably what you would do.

Self-discipline is especially important for us. 
It takes effort to live the lifestyle of what we wanted. 

There is a constant battle raging in the soul, at least until we has established our code of honour securely in our spirit. 

One is constantly tempted to set one standards aside and deal with some jerk who just insulted one's life in a more direct, physical way, but resists this temptation time and time again. 

This takes self-discipline, sometimes a lot of self-discipline!

The trick is to continue to discipline yourself until these temptations do not cross your mind when you are dealing with these kinds of people. 

When you no longer need to discipline yourself in order to walk away from some obnoxious jerk, you know that the lifestyle has become ingrained in your spirit. 

You naturally do what is right and what is best, and can smile about how the “old” you would have loved to smash this guy’s face. 

With continuous self-discipline, you will reach this point.

When our heart centre is balanced and open, we actually establish an energetic resonance with other, entering into a common vibration. 

When are on the same energetic wavelength as others, we communicate on a higher level than we allow. We enter into an energetic rapport that is based on complete understanding and acceptance of each other.

 Practice being present with an open heart and see how the energy shifts.

Everybody who lives dies. But not everybody who dies has lived.

There will always be another reason to put off living and enjoying your life in the present – no money, a big project, etc. 
This list could go on and on. 

You must live while you are living. 

You can still take care of all the menial things that we all have in our lives, while at the same time, living your life to the fullest. 

Living is living. 

You don’t have to compartmentalize your life. 
It is okay to enjoy your life and take time to smell the roses, even while you are struggling to make your way in this world.

Shinso stated, “No matter what road I travel, I am going home.” 

Don’t take everything so seriously that it subtracts from your enjoyment of living your life. 

Although you can’t control the sands of time, you do control how you live your life while those grains of sand are flowing through the hour glass. 

Accepting the fact that the days of your life are numbered shouldn’t take away from your excitement or enjoyment of life; this is not why the warrior meditates on his death.

Meditating on death is merely a way to keep you focused on living life to the fullest. 

If you think about the fact that you do not have all the time in the world and that you are getting older every day, you will be more motivated to live your life now, instead of putting off living until later. 

If there are things that you want to do during your lifetime, do them now. 

Don’t put off living until sometime in the future.

Whoa whoa whoa life is good!

Friends to me..

We are social beings and friendship is an incredibly important part of our lives. 

"Give me friends or give me death".

 A life without friendship is terrible and lonely.

Appreciating friends is something we must always make time for. 

In today's competitive world it is easy to get caught up in our careers or our latest project. It is important to keep a sense of perspective.

You may meet a person and instantly know that you will be best friends forever. Other friendships develop over an extended period of time. 

In some friendships you may feel a sense of equality, while in others there may be a clear sense that one is giving more to the friendship then the other. 

There are no rules about how a friendship has to be. If you are able to share your life with another human being, by all means go right ahead. 

All friendships are unique and special in their own way. 

Each one is valuable.

Some friends are so perfect for us that they are put into the category of angels. We know that they could only have been seen by God. 

I have the greatest friend on earth, we have certain jokes that no one would understand but he and I together we share our life story.

Sometimes we forget to tell the people that we love most how precious they are, but it's never too late.

One plus one equals two you see but somehow it's different with me and him. 

You know my dreams and my every thought No stronger bond could ever be sought.

Today, say "yes" to all your heart asks for, "yes" to all your inner yearnings, and "yes" to releasing attachments that keep you from living in the full integrity of your authentic Spirit today. Yes. Yes. Yes!!!

Our actions of today shall be the path of our tomorrows.

Sooner or later you are going to realize, just as I did, that there is a difference between knowing the path and walking the path.

It is very easy to know the path, especially in today's society. 

We have access to an abundance of information from books to the internet. 

KNOWING the path only takes a small amount of effort, but WALKING the path takes much more; it takes focus, determination, and self-discipline. 

It takes ACTION!

Our mind can set a deceptive trap for us where we actually KNOW the path to such a point, that we THINK we are walking path, when in fact we are spinning our wheels and going nowhere. 

Once you know the path, then the work starts.

You have to actually put in the mental and physical effort to WALK the path. You can KNOW the path sitting on you couch researching and reading, but you can't WALK the path with the same amount of effort; you must move forward. 

You must discipline yourself to take action. 

Walking always entails taking action, where knowing only entails thought. You have to have BOTH. 

Don't just know the path, walk it every day until you ARE the path.

Distrust all whom the impulse to punish is powerful

I smile.
It's not because I have received your love but because I have given love.

I am only one, but still I am one. I cannot do everything, but still I can do something; and because I cannot do everything, I will not refuse to do something I can do.
Do not let what you cannot do interfere with what you can do.

On the road of experience, trying to find my own way sometimes I wish that I could fly away.

I am not her, I have never been she, never called the it-girl!
I am not the Grandaunty I resemble, nor the aunt that tries to improve me.

I have not been beaten so bad that I haven't gotten back up for seconds.

I have never been so self-absorbed to pass by someone in need.

I have never been rich nor have I been poor... for I always have my heart my soul and love.

I have never abandoned a friend or usurped an opportunity that was not mine by rights.

I don't let lies and deceit stand as fact or belief, I would rather trust and be a fool than become jaded and hurt a heart.

I don't allow others to be hurt in front of me and let my voice rust in my throat.

I will not jump with the crowd and be part of the flock.

I may not be the one, who shines the stars or Hung the Moon, but I am who I am and that is enough for me!

Yes I think highly of myself because the world takes me as my own estimation.  I am beautiful as I am in my own way...

God makes NO mistake!

Every moment matters...

Living as if your life really matters takes conscious thoughts, words and deeds.

From the moment your heart starts beating, just about twenty-one days after you were conceived, to the moment you take your last breath; your heart has given you the greatest gift imaginable – LIFE. It keeps you alive without you ever giving it a single command because it feeds itself first.

There is no such thing as chance; and what seem to us merest accident springs from the deepest source of destiny.
