Let my soul smile through my heart and my heart smile through my eyes, that I may scatter rich smiles in sad hearts.....Paramahansa Yogananda ♥ ♥ ♥

I told my mom one day, years ago….I wanted what she had….

I felt a certain peace that emanated from her, that clung to her words. And so, the journey began……..

…..and now I understand….Only by His Loving Grace

We are all in this together……..

Baby steps back to You, Father

It’s so magical to watch God paint my skies….rather than

Thinking I have to do anything at all

He alone sees truly who sees the Lord the same in every creature...seeing the same Lord everywhere, he does not harm himself or others…Lord Krishna

God speaks to all of us all the time. It’s a matter of learning how to listen. You walk through the woods and you hear the birds singing. If you are naïve you don’t realize it is God singing to you through the bird. Everything is Divinity. Nothing else exists. Therefore, you don’t have to worry about finding God…..Doc Hawkins 

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness, some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of it's furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent as a guide from beyond.
~Rumi

All the Hemispheres

Leave the familiar for a while.

Let your senses and bodies stretch out

Like a welcomed season

Onto the meadow and shores and hills.

Open up to the Roof.

Make a new watermark on your excitement

And love.

Like a blooming night flower,

Bestow your vital fragrance of happiness

And giving

Upon our intimate assembly.

Change rooms in your mind for a day.

All the hemispheres in existence

Lie beside an equator

In your heart.

Greet Yourself

In your thousand other forms

As you mount the hidden tide and travel

Back home.

All the hemispheres in heaven

Are sitting around a fire

Chatting

While stitching themselves together

Into the Great Circle inside of

You.

Me & Angelina were at the pool…and there was this butterfly & she was just hanging out….not flying off when we got too close, like other butterflies, but just moving for a moment and then settling back down on the pavement…I had to get a picture…she was quite lovely….but each time I went for the shot….she moved away….and then settled back down not far from where she was…I thought inside my heart “Lord, I just want one picture please”….then at that moment….she landed on my toe…..

God stopping by to say hello

With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible…..Jesus

“Yes I am with you always, until the very end of time”~Jesus

See! I will not forget you....I have carved you on the palm of my hand~Isaiah 49:15

We must generate courage equal to the size of the difficulties we face~ The Dalai Lama

"(The Self) is central, solid, profound, still, immutable,
nonlocal, diffuse, all encompassing, peaceful, tranquil, comfortable, secure,
emotionless joy, infinite lovingness, protection, closeness, safety, complete
fulfillment, and ultra familiar. It is radically innate. It is the ultimate '
at home', the core of Reality and Awareness. It is the total and complete 'me'
of All That Is or ever was or could be, beyond all time, place and conditions.
It is the comfort, warmth and security of total, unconditional, and ever-lasting
Love. It is unconditional and without pain or vulnerability. It is beyond all
mentalization, question, doubt, word or emotion. It is peace, silence, and
stillness, profound and infinite. It is the quality of Divinity, which is
radiantly self-evident and all encompassing. The Love and Power of God are one
and the same."  ~Dr. David R. Hawkins

The spirit and the heart are one. It is the heart that is at one
with God, not the mind. To discover one's own heart is to discover
God.....

"That we've earned the right to each other's presence... the right to be aligned with each other. And I think that is a great Gift from God.
So, we are God's gifts to ourselves. And we do give ourselves to each other. We do. And I think by doing that we try to fulfill God's purpose for us to be all we can be to each other.
The impact of that on the world I think is salutary. But I don't think we should do it for that reason. We should do it as the fulfillment of our own potential through our own alignment with devotion to God.
And therefore I give thanks to all of you, because you are God's gift to me. Thank you God for everyone here. God spoils me. He really spoils me. Thank you again so much.... I am spoiled rotten...."
