Striving to see tranquillity and peace expressed, also simplicity, and great strength and nobility of spirit. Seeking calm confidence to share with those that are confused or unhappy. Inner life of prayer and striving affects the thoughts and souls of many others … no longer living for self. I will accept and be thankful for my life, and know that at the right time the way will be shown to me.
Today I offer my thoughts, and those I read and observe.
When we judge others according to our beliefs of how good and honorable people should act, we condemn ourselves and prove to be that which we speak against. So painfully obvious and yet when we are so close to it, living this behavior personally (and we all do at times) it seems to escape our perception. So, that being said, I ask Spirit/God/Universal Wisdom, to make me aware of the times I slip into this attitude and bring me back to love. Amen.
Remaining open-hearted is the most courageous thing you can do. So many people will do their best to tear it out of your chest, to crush it, to convince you it isn’t worthy of their best intentions … stay open to love anyway, stay soft … but you will grow in a special kind of fierceness, a gift. For keeping love alive.

Doing the inner work and healing isn’t a fleeting thing, it’s a habitual pattern, a practice, a characteristic of the Self. It’s not flashy or loud. Invisible even, it can seem. Some like to show off their “skills” but have no healing journey “history” to back it up.
Alchemy. How do we change the world? It begins with inner alchemy. Alter your language, alter your thoughts. Mixing this delicious future takes care, and a meticulous action.
The question we should be asking ourselves is: Do we stand for continued life on this planet? Or do we stand for the destruction of it? It really is a very simple and straight forward question.
“Because they are seeing, they see not; and hearing, they hear not; neither do they understand the voice of heaven.” – Matthew 13.13
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful,
committed citizens can change the world;
indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.
~ Margaret Mead
