Unbelievable, yet this is what we see

Think you are big? Are you taller or larger than anyone? Do you feel like this planet is big? Bigger than what?

I find it easy to get lost in the images presented on the below link. I try to remember what I'm looking at and how there are potential systems that potentially could hold life around every star. Boggle's the mind, don't it?

Images from the Hubble Telescope


Enjoy!

Being yet unformed, you saw what you wanted to be, and here you are.

"God's eyes saw your substance before you were formed; He arranged your days before you were born. There is a divine plan for your life on earth." Dr. Robert Schuller

I think you and me, if we are conscious enough of our own personal existence....can remember that we had a part in all that planning too! Just a sensable conclusion if you ask me. As for the divine plan. Everyone has a plan. No exceptions. We will keep re-doing into infinity until we get it right, if that is what it takes. Its ok, its only a matter of time before we all get it right.

Together.

When you get to a level where everything is beautiful, the bible becomes poetry of love. From within the emotions can be set free. As is the Tibetan Book of the Dead, the Torah, the Koran and every other holy book based upon inner peace and further expansion of that kingdom from within. When the real message of 'non-judgement' and 'pre-forgiveness' sets in it takes the edge off the religious texts that our current society has caused an imbalance with. They are praise upon the beauty that of which each and every human is playing an integral part. The balance is never really far off. It is a complex yet manageable organization of cells that make up a body, on every level. However one level is not superior to any other level, it is all managed by the same codes and restrictions; ie. Disease is equal to War within the body. A mismanagement of cells within the community of your system of which you are the observer of what is happening. You are the one who issues the commands to the cells with whatever communication you come up with through eating, meditation, exercise or even direct communication via verbal affirmations placed consistently and habitually. This is why the Sheperd is so prominent a role model; we must not be rough and yell at the sheep. Kindness and gentleness, even playfulness will usher the cells into balance. The Cells know what to do, they were born to do it, like you can be a born healer, teacher, worker etc. Have them work peacefully. You do this by being conscious of them…being conscious of themselves. Remember what exists! ‘I am made of this’. ‘This works peacefully and receives help from me whenever it needs it’. Simply making a decision will change what happens.

"Your eyes saw my substance, being yet unformed. And in Your book they all were written, the days fashioned for me, when as yet there were none of them." - Psalm 139:16

Tigerberry


This is a short Poem I found that really makes one ponder the Power of the NOW...among other revelations. Enjoy!

A man traveling across a field encountered a tiger. He fled, the tiger after him. Coming to a precipice, he caught hold of the root of a wild vine and swung himself over the edge. The tiger sniffed at him from above. Trembling, the man looked down to where, far below, another tiger was waiting to eat him. Only the vine sustained him. Two mice, one white and one black, little by little started to gnaw away the vine. The man then saw a luscious strawberry near him. Grasping the vine with one hand, he plucked the strawberry with the other. How sweet it tasted. Zen Poem

Cherish the enjoyment of being you, in every given moment.

Life Changing Quotes

So many quotes and messages I encounter, I mostly desire to carry them with me so that I live according to the feelings and dreams they envoke. Some I will carry, only my future self knows which ones. Take what you will, dreams are free.

"I was born to catch dragons in their dens And pick flowers To tell tales and laugh away the morning To drift and dream like a lazy stream And walk barefoot across sunshine days." James Kavanaugh

"If a man is called to be a street sweeper, he should sweep streets even as Michelangelo painted, or Beethoven played music, or Shakespeare wrote poetry. He should sweep streets so well that all the hosts of heaven and earth will pause to say, here lived a great street sweeper who did his job well." Martin Luther King Jr.

"The bond that links your true family is not one of blood, but of respect and joy in each other's life. Rarely do members of one family grow up under the same roof." Richard Bach

"I will permit no man to narrow and degrade my soul by making me hate him." Booker T. Washington

"There are only two ways of spreading light - to be the candle or the mirror that reflects it." Edith Wharton

"You cannot do a kindness too soon because you never know how soon it will be too late." Ralph Waldo Emerson

"Even if I knew that tomorrow the world would go to pieces, I would still plant my apple tree." Martin Luther

"If you hear a voice within you say 'you cannot paint,' then by all means paint, and that voice will be silenced." Vincent Van Gogh

"One hundred percent of the shots you don't take don't go in." Wayne Gretzky

"When you plant lettuce, if it does not grow well, you don't blame the lettuce. You look for reasons it is not doing well. It may need fertilizer, or more water, or less sun. You never blame the lettuce. Yet if we have problems with our friends or family, we blame the other person. But if we know how to take care of them, they will grow well, like the lettuce. Blaming has no positive effect at all, nor does trying to persuade using reason and argument. That is my experience. No blame, no reasoning, no argument, just understanding. If you understand, and you show that you understand, you can love, and the situation will change." Thich Nhat Hanh

"The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams." Eleanor Roosevelt

"Some men see things as they are and ask why. Others dream things that never were and ask why not." George Bernard Shaw

"Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great." Mark Twain

"Love the earth and sun and animals, Despise riches, give alms to everyone that asks, Stand up for the stupid and crazy, Devote your income and labor to others... And your very flesh shall be a great poem." Walt Whitman

"Evil (ignorance) is like a shadow--it has no real substance of its own, it is simply a lack of light. You cannot cause a shadow to disappear by trying to fight it, stamp on it, by railing against it, or any other form of emotional or physical resistance. In order to cause a shadow to disappear, you must shine light on it." Shakti Gawain

"Dreams are renewable. No matter what our age or condition, there are still untapped possibilities within us and new beauty waiting to be born." Dale E. Turner

"Dream as if you'll live forever... live as if you'll die today." James Dean

Kevin Trudeau, thanks for the laugh and the scare

There is this guy named Kevin Trudeau...I have not seen the infomercials. He has a book titled Natural Cures "They" Don't Want You To Know About that I happened to find on the couch of my brother. Cover looks like an infomercial, half smiling success guy to the rescue. First impression upon reading is 'This stuff is just common sense'. It then veers to accusations and further insights that really change nothing. However if we were living the life of an average American from say, uhh...Texas for example...it just might not be common sense. So below are three links to government lawsuits and complaints about Mr. Trudeau. I can save you the time and tell you that it basically sums up the facts that he also owns most of the companies that produce the natural products you will eventually be led to after forking over your entire savings account....or just finding someone who already has ;).

Government vs. Trudeau #1
Government vs. Trudeau #2
Complaints vs. Trudeau

Interview with K.T. long but worthwhile because it is all based upon truth. Just know that this guy is aware of something to profit from and that is his desire. Thereby it is a rabbit hole looking for all answers to his leads. Finacially he will take what he can to make sure that you are serious about wanting to cure yourself. My suggestion is to just be conscious of what the book or other things may suggest. Kevin Trudeau's 'way' is not the only way and by far not the least lethal to your wallet. Please read further if so inclined and I hope you find whatever you may be seeking either here or anywhere else.

My personal hope is that you find it within yourself. With help from a book, a drug, a government or a motivator of any kind. From WITHIN.

Linked: The New Science of Networks

"Everything touches everything" Jorge Luis Borges

A quote from a book I am very interested in reading. I would appreciate any posted comments as reviews or discussion pertaining to;

Linked: The New Science of Networks by Alberto-Laszlo Barabasi

"Have you ever seen a child take apart a favorite toy? Did you then see the little one cry after realizing he could not put all the piedes back together again? Well, here is a secret that never makes the headlines: We have taken apart the universe and have no idea how to put it back together." excerpt from Linked.

I think on the soul level we are about to discover how to put things back together, things will balance out. Perhaps this book lends to how and when. I intend to read it. I hope others do to. If you have please share.

Beautiful Days

Have you ever had the feeling, through and through, that everything will just simply be all right? I mean absolutely perfect even, better than was imagined in the past. Have you ever had that feeling? When something planned turns out 5 or even 10 times better? One of those days when everything is going right, smooth, seemingly guided by nothing more than your subconscious. All the things you planned to happen are happening faster than you anticipated, people are even showing up to help you without being asked. The puzzle pieces are sliding into place with ease. An end is in sight and then is met with that smile of satisfaction at having labeled oneself efficient and chimerical. A truly miraculous morning, leaving you with an afternoon to fill with unanticipated….What?

How does this make you feel? Can you feel the memory of a day like this? Would you like a day like this soon amidst your current lifestyle? Is every day you live like this and you want to share it with others? What would, could or should you do with days like this?

Still go forward.

You will have a day like this soon. We all will at some point. Go with it, but judge it not like we judge a bad day. Usually remembering the details of how yesterday was bad leads to repeat patterns of negativity. If you can visualize a day such as that described above, simply feel the feeling you recall, then you will surely cultivate a life full of days like this. Every day go forward. Always better, but not a compare game. Be Happy.

However redundant this quote should be ingrained in every human at time of waking each day:

“There is no way to Happiness, Happiness is the way!” Buddy W

I know the world is changing and we have now for the first time in history a perfect opportunity to take a step forward. The enemy is simply upon us now here, but it is something we have built and it is a part of us. Therefore there is simply no way to remove it by fighting it, we must love it back to balance. That simple. Could be fun, if we all simply decide to unite - for peace - to save ourselves…mentally, physically and spiritually.

Media and the way it asks us to fix yesterday

Just walk away. No anger, no guilt, no resentment projected outward or in.

Everyone is creating, conscious or not. Fearful thoughts create reality just as fast or faster than thoughts of abundance, love, acceptance, success and achievement.

Is our mission to fight Child Poverty, Animal Cruelty, Racism, Cancer and Aids? Are all these things actual things? They do exist, yes. Can we really win a war when we cannot see our enemy and cannot predict their location or time of appearance? How are we best suited to ‘win’ a war on anything when the subject of our attention must ‘loose’ for us to be successful? The moment we ‘win’ the battle is the moment we have brought whatever enemy we are seeking seemingly into the consciousness of ‘the people’. I do agree that consciousness is our best ‘tool’ to eliminate what we put our attention on, however we must remember a tool is only as effective as the hand that wields it. Not to blame the media, but our propaganda that so many tune into at 6:00pm daily is very simply spreading the word to take up arms against the injustices we see. There is a fundamental mistake in this, what you see on TV or even through the opinions of anyone outside your direct field of experience is seemingly pointing out the enemy…in the past. Sadly, all the fighting that is being waged in this world at this time is just a war on what we perceived yesterday. We seek to change what is already real, instead of fixing what we currently have the power to change so that, with time, we can be free of the ‘things’ that we perceive as tragedies and disasters. Realize that.

If I wanted to make the common cold go extinct, how would I best be prepared to succeed? Provide a cure? Treat all the infected people before they spread it? Even encourage everyone to live healthier so his or her immune systems are prepared to instantly fight off any ‘bug’? Consciousness is the key. From a point in time, if human thought consistency was dependable, all individuals simply stopped thinking ‘sick’ thoughts. The truth is we are all perfect, only sometimes we perceive ourselves as separate from that source of perfection.

Simply put, if we stopped giving power to the common cold by being conscious of our susceptibility to it, we would no longer be susceptible. The cold does not exist, only the symptoms that we later label as the cold or the bug that attacked us, although the seeming retaliation of our bodies was just perfect in order to separate the weakening virus. Remove the reason and the problem disappears.

Act now for the future or act now for the past. Now is where you stand. Perhaps that is all there is…really.
