I OPEN MY MIND TO PEACE

Today I open my mind to the realization that there is always another way to view any experience in life. Whenever an experience does not bring me peace, I look at it from a different perspective. By being aware of the possibility that there I another way of looking at the experience, I create the opportunity for a peaceful resolution. Today I open my mind to peace.


ASSIGNMENT FOR DAY 13
Find a homeless person and give that person some money. When you do,
notice your judgment. That judgment is about you.

Affirmation: I open my life to peace.
Remember to keep your word today

Nothing ever goes away until it has taught us what we need to know.

The past is where you learned the lesson. The future is where you apply the lesson. Don't give up in the middle!

Courage is what it takes to stand up and speak; courage is also what it takes to sit down and listen.

Work on BEing who you want to be first, then you will do what you need to do, and then have what you want to have.

You have been criticizing yourself for years, and it hasn't worked. Try approving of yourself and see what happens.
                        ~ Louise Hay

************************************

Life is so much simpler than we allow it to be. We put all these expectations on ourselves and one another that we just don't allow our lives to BE the reflection of the beauty that it IS. If we all stopped trying to get and obtain and just started BEing the LOVE that we are, there would be a lot less conflict in the world and within ourselves. Just for today, stop pushing, pulling, and grasping and just BE. BE open to the beauty that is your life and BE open to how the simplest thing like a gentle breeze is one of the most serene and beautiful moments. Start sharing instead of taking and start BEing instead of trying to DO. Watch how your life will open up in the most miraculous of ways.

A Note from the Universe

The higher your perspective, the cooler your life. 

Highly, 
    The Universe

************************************

You created yourself from the components of this time/space reality. You did not come from another planet. For most of you it is (slightly) easier to believe that some spaceship came in from another planet and dropped some of you off, and now, you've really got it going good. And the same spaceship also brought…(oh no, that's the Noah's ark story) two of everybody else. And so, now, you've got the same problem with this story that you do with Noah's ark: It must have been a smelly boat…And how did all those species get on it? (and where did they come from?) you see?
                        ~ 'The Teachings of Abraham' by Esther and Jerry Hicks

************************************

Dr. Rob Gilbert asks us to consider if we are going to let your attitude dictate your circumstances, or if your circumstances will dictate your attitude.  Because things are constantly changing, every moment of your life, you are handed new circumstances to deal with.  Depending on your attitude, this can be a new opportunity to move your life ahead, or it can be another example of you just drifting in whatever way the world moves you.  Two things are required of you if you want to move your life ahead.  First you need to know what you want, what your goals are, etc.  Then, you need to take every new circumstance and use it to springboard yourself toward what you want to achieve.  If you sense you are just being pushed through life without goals or if you are not taking action to pursue your goals, stop everything you are doing, and start working on your dreams.
                        ~ Edward W. Smith

Daily Teaching from The Power

Now this is fantastic news, because it means you can stick everything you love and want to you by looking for the things you love in other people, and saying yes to them with all of your heart! The world is your catalogue, and when you understand the power of your love, it is a full-time job noticing everything you love in other people. But it's the easiest and best way to change your whole life. It beats struggle and suffering. All you have to do is notice the things you love in other people, and turn away from the things you don't so you don't give them any feeling. How easy is that?
                        "Taking the first footstep with a good thought, the second with a good word, and the              third with a good deed, I entered paradise.
                                        ~ Book of Arda Viraf (Circa 6th Century)
