REACH OUT

Reach out to someone today.
Doesn't matter what it is, what it's for,
just reach out, give someone a hand
listen for awhile
instead of talking
Offer money if you have it
offer your time
a service
or just anything
that may do some good
to someone
who you know
needs it.
I promise you
it will take you
from where you are
to another place
that allows you
to forget
what is happening
in your
tiny
tiny
world
and will
expand
your heart
in ways that
sometimes
are
just
unexplainable.

LIVING FROM MY CORE

My sole purpose
is to take care of
and
protect
the qualities
that I can take
with me
when
death
takes
this
body.
These qualities
are
my
sole
companions!
They are my
core
values
and
if
I can
nurture
them
and
be solid
in
them
I'll
know that
I
have
lived.
Not
pretended
to
live!

FRINGES OF ETERNITY

We all move
on the
fringes
of
eternity
and
are sometimes
granted
vistas
through
the
fabric
of
illusion!

TRAINING GROUND

We're being trained
through our
incarnations
to seek
love
to seek
light
and
trained to see
the
GRACE
in all
of
our
suffering.

EYE TO EYE

I love staring fear in the face!

I always think it's gonna be this big ol' heavy weight match, and then I get in the "ring", and I always wind up kicking it's ass!

I don't need no freakin' gloves!

Pssshhhh. I ain't scared a you!

SOMETIMES LESS IS MORE

To me, there are two types of creative people.

There are those who think that their work is superior to everyone else's.
These people talk about their work and their art all the time.
They look down on people for not appreciating their "masterpieces"
and they are jealous and condescending towards anyone's work that is accepted.
These creative people are usually unsuccessful artists simply because their high opinion
of themselves
and their work
gets in their way.

Then there are those
who think that their work is important
but
mostly in terms of their own self satisfaction.
They talk a lot less
and create a lot more than the other type of person.
They work very hard
and they appreciate other people's feelings
towards them
and
their work.
These creative people are usually
successful artists
because their realistic opinion of themselves
lets them work and grow past obstacles.

CONTRARY TO POPULAR BELIEF

The more
fearless
a
person
is,
the
less
mind
he
uses.
The more
fearful
a
person
the
more
he
uses
the
mind!
