have a great week

[Mixed Titles]

“Sunday. A day to refuel your soul and be grateful for your blessings. Take a deep breath and relax. Enjoy your family, your friends, and a cup of coffee.”40

 

 

Remain Cheerful Within When faced with problems it can seem difficult to maintain inner cheer, the mind gets caught up with more and more negativity, fear or worry. Because of this, the problem seems bigger than it  is and we lose the ability to find solutions and work constructively. The first step I need to take when I recognise a problem is to  smile to myself. When I make sure I am happy within, I know that every situation will pass and has something to teach me. Then I will find solutions come more quickly and easily.

Patience Patience teaches us to sow the seed in the form of right actions and to allow the fruits of those actions to ripen in their own time. I don't need to think about the future benefits of what I do now, because I know I will receive what I need when the time is right. If I let go of expectations and allow things to develop in their own time, I will be able to enjoy what I am doing in the present, and the future will automatically become good.

​​​​​​​How do I love You?

I love You when I do good deeds every day.

I love You when I am compassionate to people who need understanding.

I love You with my mind when I open myself up to lifelong learning.

I love you with generosity when I share what I have.

I love You when I help others weaker than myself.

How do I love You?

I love You with all my heart.

Today's Story

A father saw his son wandering through the woods, but worried for his safety. He decided to discuss the matter with the child.

"You know, I have noticed that each day you walk into the woods. Why do you go there?"

The boy said to his father, "I go there to find God."

His father gently replied, "That is a very good thing. I am glad you are searching for God. But, my child, don't you realize that God is the same everywhere?" 

"Yes," the boy answered, "But I am not."

 ================   

A man said to the crowd...

“If you had two cars in your driveway, would you
a) either sell one and give the money to the poor, or
b) give the car to the poor?"

The crowd shouted, “Why yes! Of course we would.”

Again the man shouted, "And if you had two houses, would you 
give one of them to the poor, as you cannot possibly live in two 
houses at the same time?”

Again the response from the crowd was overwhelming,
"Yes" they cried.

The man shouted again, "If you had two coats, would you..."
and was interrupted by a man in the crowd who said,
"Hold on a minute, we ALL have two coats."

The man no longer continued.

Everyday in life we are the first to condemn others for having 
many things while there are people in the world who have 
nothing.

"Why don't the celebs give some of their money, etc., etc.?"

However, when it comes down to it and we are being questioned, 
we are the first ones to say, "Hold on, why us?"

Too often in life people don't think before they speak.
They judge others before looking thoroughly through themselves.

Next time... Please THINK

What you do to others... you should do to yourself.
What you say to others... you should say to yourself.
What you think about others... you should think about yourself.
What you see in others... you should see in yourself.

THINK BEFORE YOU ACT!

There is a road in the hearts of all of us, hidden and seldom traveled,
which leads to an unkown, secret place.
The old people came literally to love the soil,
and they sat or reclined on the ground with a feeling of
being close to a mothering power.
Their teepees were built upon the earth
and their altars were made of earth.
The soul was soothing, strengthening, cleansing and healing.
That is why the old Indian still sits upon the earth instead of
propping himself up and away from its life giving forces.
For him, to sit or lie upon the ground is to be able to think more deeply
and to feel more keenly. He can see more clearly into the mysteries of
life and come closer in kinship to other lives about him.
