Category: Thought for Today

Accept your past, it’s part of the journey of who you’ve become……

Embrace, appreciate and live in the present……

Look forward to your future with curious anticipation, faith and courage……

 

Challenges come so we can grow and be prepared for things we are not equipped to handle now.
When we face our challenges with faith, prepared to learn, willing to make changes, and if necessary, to let go, we are demanding our power be turned on.

Iyanla Vanzant

Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma – which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. Steve Jobs

When you open yourself to the continually changing, impermanent, dynamic nature of your own being and of reality, you increase your capacity to love and care about other people and your capacity to not be afraid. You’re able to keep your eyes open, your heart open, and your mind open. And you notice when you get caught up in prejudice, bias, and aggression. You develop an enthusiasm for no longer watering those negative seeds, from now until the day you die. And, you begin to think of your life as offering endless opportunities to start to do things differently. ― Pema Chödrön

 

Make peace with your past. Life is too short and beautiful to hold grudges against people who no longer exist in your present. Forgive and let it go! I did, and a whole new world opened up for me…..

Forgiveness is the choice to see people as they are now. By bringing the past into the present we create a future just like the past. By letting go, we make room for miracles.

Marianne Williamson

Each of us are born with a unique passion and purpose, and that purpose may be as simple as deciding to be happy! When you are fulfilling this purpose, you are contributing to the health of the entire planet.

Christiane Northrup

Listen carefully to your inner thoughts, no matter how small or insignificant you may judge them to be. Those tenacious thoughts that just won’t go away should be viewed by you as intention talking to you saying, “You signed up to express your unique brilliance, so why do you keep ignoring it?”

Dr Wayne W Dyer

Before you speak, ask  yourself if what you are going to say is….

T – True
H – Helpful
I   – Inspiring
N – Necessary
K – Kind

If the answer is “no”, maybe what you are about to say should be left unsaid!

The practice of meditation takes us on a fabulous journey into the gap between our thoughts, where all the advantages of a peaceful, stress-free, healthier, fatigue-free life are available, but are simply side benefits. The paramount reason for doing this soul-nourishing meditation practice is to get in the gap between our thoughts and make conscious contact with the creative energy of life itself. But this is a choice that’s entirely the responsibility of each individual. We have the potential to be instruments of the highest good for all concerned and to be miracle workers in our own lives.
