Courage

Courage

Courage is the strength to stand up
When it's easier to fall down and lose hold.

It is the conviction to explore new horizons
When it's easier to believe what we've been told.

Courage is the desire to maintain our integrity
When it's easier to look the other way.

It is feeling happy and alive, and moving forward.
When it's easier to feel sorry for ourselves and stay.

Courage is the will to shape our world
When it's easier to let someone else do it for us.

It is the recognition that none of us are perfect.
When it's easier to criticize others and fuss.

Courage is the power to step forward and lead.
When it's easier to follow the crowd; their pleas surround.

It is the spirit that places you on the top of the mountain.
When it's easier to never leave the ground.

The foundation of courage is solid, The rock that doesn't roll.

Courage is the freedom of our mind, body, and soul. Keep the Flame of courage always burning in your Heart.

Treasure every moment you have and realize that life is too short to worry about things you have no control over and to do nothings about the things you can.

The Interview with God

The Interview with God

I dreamed that I had an Interview with God.

"So you would like to interview me?" GOD asked.

"If you have the time," I said.

God Smiled. "My time is eternity. What questions do you have in mind for me?"

"What surprises you most about humankind?"

God answered "That they get bored with childhood, they rust to grow up, and then long to be children again."

"That they lose their health to make money and then lose their money to restore their health."

"That by thinking anxiously about the future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future."

"That they live as if they will never die, and die as though they had never lived."

GOD took mine hand and we were silent for awhile.

And then I asked, "As a parent, what are some of life's lessons you want your children to learn?"

"To learn they cannot make anyone love them. All they can do is let themselves be loved."

"To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to others."

"To Learn to forgive by practicing forgiveness."

"To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open profound wounds in those they love, and it can take many years to heal them."

"To learn that a rich person is not one who has the most, but is one who need the least."

"To learn that there are people who love them dearly, but simply do not yet know how to express or show their feelings."

"To learn that two people can look at the same thing and see it differently."

"To learn that it is not enough that they forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves."

"Thank you for your time," I said humbly. "Is there anything else you'd like your children to know?"
GOD smiled and said "Just know that I am here always."

May You Be Blessed



  • May You Be Blessed
  • May you be blessed with all things good.
  • May your joys like the stars at night, be too numerous to count.
  • May your victories be more abundant than all the grains of sand on all the beaches on all the oceans in all the world.
  • May lack and struggle be always absent from your life and may beauty, order and abundance be your constant companions.
  • May every pathway you choose lead to that which is pure and good and lovely.
  • May every doubt and fear be replaced by a deep, abiding trust as you behold evidence of a Higher Power all around you.
  • And when there is only darkness and the storms of life are closing in. May the light at the core of your being illuminate the world.
  • May you always be aware you are loved beyond measure and may you be willing to love unconditionally in return.
  • May you always feel protected and cradled in the arms of God like the cherished child you are.
  • And when you are tempted to judge may you be reminded that we are all one and that every thought you think reverberates across the universe, touching everyone and everything.
  • And when you are tempted to hold back, may you remember loves flows best when it flows freely and it is in giving that we receive the greatest gift.
  • May you always have music and laughter and may a rainbow follow every storm.
  • May gladness wash away every disappointment, may joy dissolve every sorrow and may love ease every pain.
  • May every wound bring wisdom, May every trial bring triumph, and with each passing day may you live more abundantly than the day before.
  • May you be blessed. And may others be blessed by you.
  • This is my heartfelt wish for you.

Goals

1. Set specific goals and action steps, and write them down. The single most important step in getting somewhere is knowing where you're going and having a plan for getting there. Your goals have to be written out, and so does your plan. Be specific, date each goal and each step on your action plan. Then follow it.


2. Read and review your goals daily. This one could change your life. Keep your goals in front of you. Always know what you plan to do next. And always take the action your plan calls for. Review your goals, review your plan, change them as necessary, and stay with it. It only takes two or three minutes each morning to read your goals and glance over your plans. You're going to spend the next 24 hours that day doing something; you might as well be doing something that counts.


3.Set daily priorities. Your goals and action plan will tell you what to do. Next, put your priorities in order. If you make a list, keep it short.


4. Change your old programs by learning new Self-Talk. Get rid of any old mental programs that could be holding you back. Listen to Self-Talk, practice it, and get it right. Your programs will determine whether you reach your goal or not.


5. Turn off the television. The less television you watch, the more successful you will be. Most television wastes your time, while it programs your mind with the wrong input to be successful. Do your future and your family a favor. As much as you can, break the habit, spend your time doing something of value, and turn the television OFF.


6. Practice, every day, keeping a positive attitude. Your attitude actually affects the biochemistry of your brain. A bad attitude turns your success switches "off." A good attitude turns them "on." Never listen to the negative opinions of others, and make the choice to eliminate negativity from your life--completely. A good attitude is not an accident; it is a habit and a skill that you have to build for yourself. Practice going through life with your success switches being turned "on."


7. Associate with people who are more successful than you are. We become most like the people we spend our time with most. Seek out the successful people; people of quality, honor, integrity, and achievement. Spend time with them in person. Listen to them on tape. Or read their stories in books. We get the most from the people who have the most to give.


8.Live your life based on "values." Your values are the pages on which the story of your life will be written. Practice the values of honesty, integrity, trust, determination, compassion, patience, personal responsibility, the willingness to work, and the courage to endure. All lasting success is built on positive values.


9.Practice your faith. In the lives of people who are truly successful in every way, you will always find a foundation of faith. If you want to live your life at your best, practice your faith. Not just an hour a week. Every day.


10.Make the choice to believe in yourself and in your future. Believing in yourself is a choice. The people who are the most successful learn to tell themselves they can do it. Practice believing in yourself. Practice telling yourself you can do it; no matter how difficult, no matter what it takes. You've got what it takes. You can do it! You are capable of more than you have ever imagined! Now tell yourself that.


11.Do at least two things each day to improve yourself. This is one of the top ideas on every achiever's list of how to be successful. If you want to get more successful, you have to learn more. Each day, think of two simple things you can do to improve yourself that day. Set some goals about this one. Take small steps. Read something. Listen to something new. Learn something. If you want your life to get better, you have to start by improving yourself, first.
12. Never quit. Never Stop. Never give up! If you want to be successful at anything, be determined, persevere, stay with it, refuse to give in, don't hesitate, don't hold back, and don't quit until the job is done. If it hasn't worked yet, try harder. If you haven't reached your goal, focus your sights, visualize the outcome, recommit to making it, start again, take action, stay with it, and never, ever, give up!

Dialogue with God

I asked God...

I asked God to do away with my vices.

They are not there for me to take them away. They are there for you to resist them.

I asked God to complete my body.

God said, “No”

Your spirit is complete, your body is only temporary.

God said, “No”

God said, “No”

You have to grow by yourself! But I will prune you to make you bear fruit.

I asked God for the things that would make me like life.

God said, “No”

I will give you life, so you can enjoy all those things.

I asked God to help me love the others, like He loves me.

God said: ...Ohhh, You finally got the idea...

60. Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom.

109. You may wish to be loving-- you may even try with all your might-but your love will never be pure unless you are free from resentment. When we are free from resentment, loving is effortless. When we have to try hard to love, this is generally a sign that we are repressing our resentments.

139. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

140. Love works in miracles every day: such as weakening the strong, and stretching the weak; making fools of the wise, and wise men of fools; favouring the passions, destroying reason, and in a word, turning everything.

141. All love that has not friendship for its base, is like a mansion built upon the sand.

142. There are three kinds of love, - unselfish, mutual, and selfish. The unselfish love is of the highest kind. The lover only minds the welfare of the beloved and does not care for his own sufferings. In mutual love the lover not only wants the happiness of his beloved but has an eye towards his own happiness also. It is middling. The selfish love is the lowest. It only looks towards its own happiness, no matter whether the beloved suffers weal or woe.

143. Love is the emblem of eternity: it confounds all notion of time: effaces all memory of a beginning, all fear of an end.

150. Relationships of all kinds are like sand held in your hand. Held loosely, with an open hand, the sand remains where it is. The minute you close your hand and squeeze tightly to hold on, the sand trickles through your fingers. You may hold on to some of it, but most will be spilled. A relationship is like that. Held loosely, with respect and freedom for the other person, it is likely to remain intact. But hold too tightly, too possessively, and the relationship slips away and is lost.

151. What does open us is sharing our vulnerabilities. Sometimes we see a couple who has done this difficult work over a lifetime. In the process, they have grown old together. We can sense the enormous comfort, the shared quality of ease between these people. It is beautiful, and very rare. Without this quality of openness and vulnerability, partners don't really know each other; they are one image living with another image.

152. But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law. Notice the word *fruit* is singular, yet it list nine. So there is only one fruit of the Spirit. That fruit is love.

154. Somethings are loved because they are valuable; others are valuable because they are loved.

155. For women, "I love you" is the sweetest phrase in the world. But not every man who says it means it. On the other hand, some men may feel it deeply, but still find it hard to say. There are several reasons these words might stick in a man's throat. The first is that, quite commonly, men have a difficult time expressing the emotions they feel most deeply. Another reason is the words "I love you" might be interpreted as a marriage proposal. So that nothing gets lost in the translation, men with this concern will wait for the time in which they can back up their words with a lifetime commitment.

182. A smile is the light in your window that tells others that there is a caring, sharing person inside.

221. Ah, how skillful grows the hand that obeyeth Love's command! It is the heart and not the brain that to the highest doth attain, And he who followeth Love's behest Far excelleth all the rest.

231. Fear? What is there to fear in love? Love is the very reason we live. To fear love is to lose all sense of living, And if we cannot love, then why have we been put here?
