Perfection

"God

who is

eternally

complete,

who directs

the stars,

who is the

master of fates,

who elevates man

from his lowliness

to Himself,

who speaks from the cosmos

to every single human soul,

is the most brilliant manifestation of the goal of perfection."

~ Alfred Adler


Overwhelming, too big, too large, too grand or whatever too

that you can ascribe to God, He will always be just a little

more than what we could ever comprehend.

If you can think it, God put that thought into you head.

If you can believe it, God will give you the courage to know.

If you have faith, God will give you the strength to hold it.

Today, God will give you the chance, the choice is yours to

do the will of your Higher Power with the goal of being a

bright image of God's best creation.

Today, seek a healthy balance; body, mind and soul,

in your life and leave perfection up to God.

Happiness is being elevated to God's perfection.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

Think, Imagine, BIG

"Little men

with little

minds

and little

imaginations

go through life

in little ruts,

smugly resisting

all changes

which would jar

their little worlds." ~ Zig Ziglar


You are never to old to change.

Smug is a discomfort zone in disguise.

Complacency is another way to discribe a little world.

Today, go for the gusto, expand your thinking, allow

your imagination to run wild and try to make every

chance that your Higher Power gives you into a work of

lasting kindness, love, faith, hope and grace.

Today, do not be a slacker, use your God given talents

to make this world a better place for the glory of God.

God wants you to be.

Happiness is thinking and imagining BIG.

beneath

the

stars

build

too low." ~ Edward Young

but also for the life hereafter.

Oneness

"When

I think

of someone

as somehow

different

from me,

a wall

comes up

between

their heart and mine.

When I remember our oneness,

the wall disappears." ~Betsy Otter Thompson


A soul is a soul is a soul, young, old, boy, girl,

black, white, yellow, red, aboriginal, immigrant,

legal or illegal, a heart beats in every one.

Body, mind and spirit, we are on this earth

for a very short time with the obligation to do

the will of a loving Creator.

Truth

"The

greatest

friend of

truth

is Time,

her greatest

enemy

is Prejudice,

and her

constant companion

is Humility." ~ Charles Caleb Colton


Truth and honesty are inseperable, but we must

remember that what one honestly believes to be true

could be wrong if seen from another side, another angle

or another perspective.

Time will change the side you are on, the angle from

which you see things and how you may perceive things.

Child like, the teenager who wants to be, the young adult,

the almost mature adult, the old timer who will never

grow up or the truly humble, honest and wise saint

will all have different truths.

Today, be prepared to be wrong, no matter how honestly

and truly you believe what you have seen or heard is real.

Today, be a friend of the truth, be patient, time will tell,

do not be prejudiced, be tolerant of those who cannot change,

and most importantly, be humble, no matter whether you are

right or wrong.

Happiness is accepting todays truth.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

Going Down

"Facilis

descensus

Averni"


"Easy

is the

descent

to Hell" ~ Virgil


Gravity and time are the weapons of the Devil.

Self will is the road that spirals down hill and keeps

going faster and faster as the Devil pulls you down.

One little lie becomes many, one little cheat becomes

a tangled affair, one little theft becomes and avalance

of selfish, self-centered, more, more, more,

and a thousand is never enough.

The will of your loving Higher Power is to be kind,

loving, patient and tolerant and to aim high.

Today, know that Heaven defies gravity and once there,

time becomes eternal.

Today, beware of gravity, do not waste God's time,

and choose only the battles that you know you can win.

Happiness is winning the uphill battles.

Quiet Lives

"The

good

and the

wise

lead

quiet

lives."

~ Euripides


The quiet is giving God the opportunity to speak.

The mind finds it difficult to listen for the quiet,

to sense the intuitive feelings that allow us to choose

to do the next right thing.

Listen with your heart and soul to seek the will of a

loving Great Creator, the Spirit of the Universe,

the Light of All Being.

Today, know that it is wise to be kind, it is wise to

be loving, it is wise to be patient and tolerant, it is wise

Be Good For Something

"Aim

above

morality.

Be not

simply good,

be good

for something."

Henry David Thoreau



It is good to be good by trying to do your best,

but it is better to be really good at making

this world a better place by using the talents

and skills given to you by your loving Higher Power.

Today, choose to be really good at doing something.

Opposite

"Almost

every

wise

saying

has an

opposite

one,

no less

wise,

to balance it." ~ George Santayana


It is not doing the opposite that gets us in trouble,

it is doing the extreme that puts us over the edge.

Smart is learning from your own mistakes,

wise is learning from the efforts of others.

Today, do not just seek out the mistakes to learn from,

look at all the wonderful successes that God creates

every day and be wise enough to also learn from them.

Be wise to keep balance in your life.

Today, be just kind enough, share the love,

do not be patient and tolerant to a fault, and when

all else fails, be wise enough to ask God for help

to keep you in balance; body, mind and soul.

Happiness is being wise enough to know the opposite.

Valuable and Powerful

"The most

valuable

possession

you can

own

is an

open heart.

The most

powerful

weapon

you can be

is an instrument of peace." ~ Carlos Santana

weapon that God has is you.

Schizoid

"Why

is it

when we

talk to God,

we're praying,

but

when God

talks to us,

we're schizophrenic?"

~ Lily Tomlin


If you are lucky enough to hear the voices,

it is wise that you listen to them and follow the

directions that are kind, loving, patient and

tolerant,and learn to obey the voices that suggest

you do the will of God.

Beware, if you haven't prayed to your Higher Power

and you hear the voices it may be the Devil in disguise,

trying to win you over to his selfish and self-centered ways.

Today, listen closely, and when the spirit moves you

learn to do the next right thing.

Happiness is hearing the voice of God.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

Sacrifice

"Love

is not

a feeling

of happiness.

Love

is a

willingness

to sacrifice." ~ Michael Novak


Happiness is two souls sharing the same path.

Give me all of your love

and I will give you all of mine, unconditionally.

Those who have expectations, reservations and

resentments, those who are selfish and self-centered,

have no clue that to sacrifice means to share.

Today, share your path, you dream, your desire

to do the next right thing with someone

who is willing to give it their all.

Isn't love wonderful?

God is the supreme example of love and sacrifice.

Today, be God like and seek to do the will of your loving

Higher Power, no matter what the sacrifice.

Welfare

"The

welfare

there are so many was to get out of your selfish,

self-centered self and do the next right thing,

Beautiful

"All

God's

children

are not

beautiful.

Most of God's

children are,

in fact,

barely presentable." ~ Fran Lebowitz


It is God's job to make things beautiful,

your job is to be presentable.

Present a kind smile, a glowing countenance,

a posture of confidence, and a humble obediance

to a Higher Power who created all beautiful things.

do not meet the standards of beauty that others

have manufactured for our society.

Golden Moments

"What seems

nasty, painful, evil

can become

a source of beauty,

joy and strength,

if faced with

an open mind.

Every moment

is a golden one,

for him who has

the vision to see it as such." ~ Henry Miller


God's spirit, God's will, God's universe,

God is good all the time,

it is our distorted vision that clouds the mind.

Clean the evil and nasty from your eyes and

see the golden opportunity that God has placed

before those who have kindness in their heart

and love in their souls.

Today, do not be one of the selfish and self-centered

who can see no further than their own nose.

Today, ask your Higher Power to help you

clear and improve your vision.

Happiness is not missing the golden moments.

Be Kind

"Three things

in human

life

are

important.

The first

is to be kind.

The second

is to be kind.

And the third

is to be kind." ~ Henry James


Kindness is love.

Kindness knows patience.

Kindness is being tolerant of self, others and God.

Kindness is being the person God wants you to be.

How simple can it be, just be nice.

Pray for the sick and suffering, the selfish and

self-centered and know that anger, jealousy, envy

and resentments can only hurt you, not them.

Kindness is the sign on your door that tells the Devil

to just pass on by, "I kill people with my kindness."

Happiness is a whole day filled with nothing but kindness.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

The Common Pulse

"The sky

was clear

- remarkably clear -

and the

twinkling

of all the stars

seemed to be

but throbs of one body,

timed by a common pulse." ~ Thomas Hardy

The Spirit of the Universe flows around

and through us all.

We are one with the stars, one with the universe,

one with God.

The pulse of a Higher Power is the heart and soul

that carries kindness and love through the veins

of our very being.

Today, be tolerant of the noise that the Devil

makes to disrupt the pulse of God's world, and

seek out the people, places and things that are

remarkably clear.

Today, be patient, seek the quiet and learn to listen

to the pulse of the Universe, the Great Creator,

the Light of the World, the Higher Power of

your understanding.

Happiness is being one with the Common Pulse.

Honest To God

"An

honest

God

is the

noblest

work

of man."

~ Robert Green Ingersoll

If you do not believe that God exist, then you do not exist.

If you think that maybe God exists, then maybe you do too.

If you know that there is a God, and it is not you,

your existence is the noblest work of God and you.

Together, you and God know kindness.

Together, you and God know love.

Together, you and God can be patient with

and have tolerance for those lost souls

who have yet to find their God.

Together, you and God can strive to make this world

a noble and beautiful world.

Happiness is being honest to God.

Eternally Real

"Spirit

is the

real

and

eternal;

matter

is the

unreal

and

temporal."

~ Mary Baker Eddy

Today is the day to be real.

People, places and things are yesterday's history,

tomorrow is a mystery, but the spirit is, was and

always will be present.

Today, be kind and loving to the people you meet,

enjoy the places you go and and know that things

do not really matter because your spirit can't take

them with you when God says that your time

on this Earth is over.

As many good spiritual people have said;

it is better to die having lived a good life only to find

that there is no Heaven, than to have lived a bad life

and then find out there is one.

The good life is to make as many people as happy

as you can, to make all the places you go better

because you were there and to leave a legacy

of things that will make the next generation or two

have a good life and maybe they will remember

your spirit as being eternal.

Happiness is knowing what is eternally real.

The Lesser

"Constantly

choosing

the lesser

of two

evils

is still

choosing

evil."

~ Jerry Garcia

God gives you the chance and the chance always

has in it's history, at it's root, the first opportunity

to do good.

Your body, mind and soul each have their chance

to do good.

It is just unfortunate that the Body, the flesh,

has a history of being prone to know evil,

the mind is easily confused by the Devil,

therefore it is the Soul that we must learn to rely

upon to show us the pathway to happy, joyous and free.

Those whose souls are lost are always faced with choosing

the lesser of two evils, the cravings of the body

or the obsessions of the mind.

Today, go to the root, go back in history and learn to ask

your loving Higher Power for the courage and strength

to let your soul choose to do the next right thing.

Happiness is is never having to choose a lesser path.

Travel On

"The woods

are lovely,

dark

and

deep.

But I have

promises

to keep,

and miles

to go

before I sleep." ~ Robert Frost

Quitting is the easy way out.

Quitting is not giving your soul the chance to do the

will on the Spirit of the Universe, the Great Creator,

a loving Higher Power of your understanding.

Today, keep the promise to be kind to all, even the

mean and ugly people who have no idea where their

soul resides.

Today, keep your promise to love unconditionally,

even the selfish and self-centered who have no idea

what a true heart is.

Today, keep your promise to God to be patient and

tolerant of yourself, God and the stupid people

who really deserve a good slap upside the head.

Tired of traveling, let God carry you until you can

regain your own strength and courage to venture on.

Happiness is keeping promises and traveling on.

Can You See

"It is

can see

rightly,

what is

Can you see kindness? Can you see love?

Can you see the end of the universe?

Can you see God?

Yes you can see all if you let your heart do the looking.

Enhance your vision by allowing your soul to add

the brilliant color of God's world to your view.

Today, feel with your soul the love that the

Great Creator has put into this world.

Today, look with your heart to see the chance

God will give you to do the next right thing.

Strive For Truth

"In a

controversy

the instant

we feel

anger

we have

already

ceased

striving for the truth,

and have begun

striving for ourselves." Thomas Carlyle

What is true to me may not be true to you,

and who but God is to argue who is right.

To keep balance in God's world there is always

a right and a wrong, a dark and a light, a yin and a yang,

a past and a future, a knowledge and a belief and if we are

doing the will of a loving Higher Power we will never argue,

we will have faith that the truth is always somewhere

near the middle.

God's middle, not yours and not mine.

Today, be kind, be loving, be patient and tolerant

and avoid controversy.

Happiness is striving to discover God's truth.
