Spreading light

At times our own light goes out & is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us. -A. Schweitzer

Peace is a by product of #faith #strength #energy #will #sympathy #justice #imagination & #triumph.

Peace has to be created, in order to be maintained. It is the product of Faith, Strength, Energy, Will, Sympathy, Justice, Imagination, and the triumph of principle. It will never be achieved by passivity and quietism. ― Dorothy Thompson

Practice gratitude in everything.

Gratitude, like faith, is a muscle. The more you use it, the stronger it grows, and the more power you have to use it on your behalf. If you do not practice gratefulness, its benefaction will go unnoticed, and your capacity to draw on its gifts will be diminished. To be grateful is to find blessings in everything. This is the most powerful attitude to adopt, for there are blessings in everything. - Alan Cohen

Stories are more than like a food.

If stories come to you, care for them and learn to give them away where they are needed. Sometimes a person needs a Story more than food to stay alive. - Barry Lopez

Technology is a Gift from God.

"Technology is a gift of God. After the gift of life it is perhaps the greatest of God's gifts. It is the mother of civilizations, of arts and of sciences." - Freeman Dyson

Reverence is a sacred territory and is deeply enriching.

"One of the most satisfying feelingsI know… comes from my appreciating an individual in the same way that I appreciate a sunset. People are just as wonderful as sunsets if I can let them be. In fact, perhaps the reason we can truly appreciate a sunset is that we cannot control it. When I look at a sunset as I did the other evening, I don’t find myself saying, ” Soften the orange a little on the right hand corner, and put a bit more purple along the base, and use a little more pink in the cloud color. ” I don’t do that. I don’t try to control a sunset. I watch it with awe as it unfolds. - Carl Rogers”

The Deepening Journey

What amazes me is that before we can count we are taught to be grateful for what others do. As we are broken open by our experience, we begin to be grateful for what is, and if we live long enough and deep enough and authentically enough, gratitude becomes a way of life.

The Practices of Gratitude

Beginning to tune in to even the minutest feelings of... gratitude softens us... If we begin to acknowledge these moments and cherish them... then no matter how fleeting and tiny this good heart may seem, it will gradually, at its own speed, expand.

Life Is a Miracle

The Zen master Ling Chi said that the miracle is not to walk on burning charcoal or in the thin air or on the water; the miracle is just to walk on earth. You breath in. You become aware of the fact that you are alive. You are still alive and you are walking on this beautiful planet... The greatest of all miracles is to be alive. - Thich Nhat Hanh

Not to be forgotten

Sometimes our thoughts turn back toward a corner in a forest, or the end of a bank, or an orchard powdered with flowers, seen but single time yet remaining in our hearts and leaving in soul and body an unappeased desire which is not to be forgotten, a feeling we have just rubbed elbows with happiness. - Guy De Maupassant

Gratitude

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow. - Melody Beattie

Thoughts on the Gifts of a Lifetime - William Gates SR.

Life is the ulitmate teacher, but it is usually through experience and not scientific research that we discover its deeper lessons. We are all here for a single purpose: to grow in wisdom and learn to love. We can do this through losing as well as through winning, by having and by not having, by succeeding or by failing. All we need to do is to show up openhearted for class... So fulfilling life's purpose may depend more on how we play than what we are dealt. You have to be present to win.

The message, perhaps?

It all begins with showing up.

from; Showing Up  for Life - Bill Gates SR.
