Today's thought: Peace
From the writings of Paramahansa Yogananda:
"Peace is found through surrender to good, through devotion. People who are loving, who practice stillness, and delight in meditation and good actions, are really peaceful. Peace is the altar of God, the condition in which happiness exists."
Wishing you the blessing of peace in thought, word, and action.....and joy and love, always.

Teachers
Saturday, January 17, 2015
Today's thought: Teachers
"A teacher affects eternity; he can never tell where his influence stops." Henry Brooks Adams
We are all teachers. We teach in a classroom or by example, and we can never tell when a smile, a kind word, a helping hand will change someone's path in life for the better, possibly even save a life.
And we are all students, either in classrooms or in the school of life. As students, it is in our own best interests to learn as much as we can as we go through this life's experiences. Whatever we learn benefits us and all those whose lives we touch, and the lives they touch, making this planet a better place for all of us.
Wishing you the blessing of learning life's lessons the first time you hear them.....and peace, joy, and love, always.

Friends
Friday, January 16, 2015
Today's thought: Friends
From the writings of Kahlil Gibran:
"In the sweetness of friendship let there be laughter, and sharing of pleasures. For in the dew of little things the heart finds its morning and is refreshed."
"Friendship is always a sweet responsibility, not an opportunity."
Today I celebrate the birthday of the dearest friend in all the world to me, one who changed my life, enriching it beyond measure, by being my friend. Treasure your friends as precious gifts, angels in disguise.
Wishing you the blessing of friends you can treasure.....and peace, joy, and love, always.

Enjoy your day!
Thursday, January 15, 2015
Today's thought: Enjoy your day!
In going through some old folders of notes and inspirational materials, I came across the following which was printed in a Unity Church bulletin some years ago. It made me smile, and it brought to mind once again that God is in charge of the Universe and has solved problems larger than mine.
"Good Morning,
This is God:
I will be handling all your problems today,
and I will not need your help.
So enjoy your day!"
Wishing you the blessing of enjoying every day.....and peace, joy, and love, always.

Today, look for good.
Wednesday, January 14, 2015
Today's thought: Look for good.
In any situation, in every person, there is something good. Today, let us resolve to look and find the good in wherever we are and in whomever we meet. Sometimes it's easier than other times but if we continue to do this, we find more and more good that makes our lives better and better. Many things are just a matter of habit. Looking for the good wherever we are can become habitual and healing to the mind and heart.
Today, look for good.
Wishing you the blessing of looking for the good, and finding it everywhere,.....and peace, joy, and love, always.

Finding God.
Tuesday, January 13, 2015
Today's thought: Finding God.
From the writings of Mother Teresa:
"We need to find God, and He cannot be found in noise and restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature - trees, flowers, grass - grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence...We need silence to be able to touch souls."
We need silence to touch our own soul.
Peace, joy, and love, always.

Why not now?
Monday, January 12, 2015
Today's thought: Why not now?
If you have been thinking of following a dream, why not start now? Perhaps you want to learn a new skill, enlarge your circle of friends, volunteer at a shelter, begin to meditate, or write a book. In the beginning, surround your dream with love and silence. Don't talk about it until it is so firmly established in your mind and heart that possible negative comments from others will not affect its growth, or your positive feelings.
Now is always the perfect time to begin. It doesn't matter that you didn't do it last week, last month, last year....or ten years ago. What matters is now; and now is always and the only time to begin.
Wishing you the courage to follow your dreams and time enough to see them all come true.
Peace. Joy. Love, always
