_What is the most important thing in your life?
Keep that in front of you and you will discover that other things take care of themselves. When you live according to what's important to you, you give meaning to everything you do. You no longer live by the clock, but instead follow your inner compass.

All religions, like a path, lead to God and no single religion has the monopoly on God.

Spiritualists believe that one should be free to take what you want from the bible, but not to use its contents as a tool or weapon to condemn others. Such actions are neither spiritual nor worthy of a God that is spiritual perfection and shows unconditional love to all his children, no matter what spiritual pathway they follow.
Extract from An Introduction To Spiritualism

Fear, not hate, is the opposite of love

Four Gones Forever

Four things that you cannot recover in life.
THE THROWN STONE
Once the accusation is made it is set
THE WORD
Once the words are said they are said
THE OCCASION
After it is missed, it is missed forever
THE TIME
When gone, it's gone for good


You Just Never Know

Nat King Cole
One night, at 11:30 p.m., an older African American lady was standing on the side of an Alabama highway in the USA. She stood at the roadside soaked and desperately trying to endure a lashing rain storm. Her car had broken down and she desperately needed a lift.

Soaking wet, she decided to flag down the next car. A young white man stopped to help her, generally unheard of in those conflict-filled 1960's.  The man took her to safety, helped her get assistance and put her into a taxicab.

She seemed to be in a big hurry, but wrote down his address and thanked him. Seven days went by and a knock came on the man's door. To his surprise, a giant console color TV was delivered to his home.  A special note was attached. It read:

"Thank you so much for assisting me on the highway the other night. The rain drenched not only my clothes, but also my spirits. Then you came along.  Because of you, I was able to make it to my dying husband's bedside just before he passed away.  God bless you for helping me and unselfishly serving others."

Sincerely
Mrs. Nat King Cole



Don't worry about your reputation . . . that is what people think of you.

Focus on your character . . . that's who you are.


Fear

Picture
Fear is the energy which contracts, closes down, draws in, runs, hides, hoards, harms.

Love is the energy which expands, opens up, sends out, stays, reveals, shares, heals.


Emotions

ANGER is a natural emotion. Its purpose is change and in its normal state it shouldn't last more than about 15 seconds. If it is repressed it turns into rage, revenge, self-destructiveness, hate and depression. Public enemy number one.

FEAR- of only two things - loud noises and falling -  is a natural emotion. Its purpose is survival. In its unnatural form it becomes anxiety, phobia, panic.

GRIEF serves the vital purpose of resolving losses. When denied a healthy outlet it turns into self-pity, depression, shame and guilt.

JEALOUSY triggers emulation and therefore evolution. When it gets out of proportion it becomes envy, greed, competitiveness, manipulation and hypocrisy.

LOVE, that makes the world go round and bonds us together, can turn to prostitution, possessiveness, a pathetic need for approval and a lack of confidence.

Your thoughts don't exist in isolation, they affect the world.
Every thought creates vibrations. Vibrations ripple out into the universe.
Send your thoughts and vibrations to someone you know who's in difficulty, experiencing illness or pain

Risk

To love is to risk not being loved first.
To hope is to risk disappointment.
But risks must be taken because the greatest risk in life is to risk nothing.
The person who risks nothing, does nothing, sees nothing, has nothing and is nothing.
He cannot learn, feel, change, grow, love and live.
Anon


Background and circumstances may have influenced who we are . . .
. . . But we are responsible for who we become



Thoughts are like ants - when one comes, a whole troop arrives.
One thought can multiply in a matter of seconds, and then suddenly an army of negative thoughts is on the march. What are you going to do, to stop the invasion? Have one determined thought to transform
a negative thought into a positive one. It's easier to win when you deal with only 1 or 2 thoughts.  Don't let the negative thoughts multiply - have zero tolerance for their presence, even if it's just for a few minutes.

You can have anything you want if you want it desperately enough. You must want it with an exuberance that erupts through the skin and joins the energy that created the world.
Sheila Graham


The Soul

It's a state of beingness that the soul is after and not a state of doingness.

Doing is a function of the body . . . 
. . . Being is a function of the soul

Feelings are the language of the soul and your soul is your truth.

If a dozen artists paint the same scene, there will be a dozen different images.
When we appreciate that we all see things from a certain angle, with a particular focus, we're able to honour others' perceptions as much as as our own.


" I expect to pass through  life but once.  If therefore,  there be any kindness I can show,  or any good thingI can do to any fellow being,  let me do it now,  and not defer or neglect it,  as I shall not pass this way again."

William Penn (1644 - 1718)


Sometimes getting better is not the outcome. Healing is not synonymous with cure but can also be seen as the process of letting go. Death is not necessarily a failure.

Healers should be careful not to impose their need to see results or ever try to cultivate dependence. We are just a support system, a set of jump leads. The only person who can heal a patient is, ultimately, himself.
