Fame or integrity: which is more important? Money or happiness: which is more valuable? Success of failure: which is more destructive? If you look to others for fulfillment, you will never truly be fulfilled. If your happiness depends on money, you will never be happy with yourself. Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you. ~Lao Tzu |

Thank you I am humbled by the love and light we share on Spirituality Namasté. Henry David Thoreau: We must learn to reawaken and keep ourselves awake, not by mechanical aid, but by an infinite expectation of the dawn.

Kalidasa: Listen to the Exhortation of the Dawn! Look to this Day! For it is Life, the very Life of Life. In its brief course lie all the Verities and Realities of your Existence. The Bliss of Growth, The Glory of Action, The Splendor of Beauty; For Yesterday is but a Dream, And To-morrow is only a Vision; But To-day well lived makes Every Yesterday a Dream of Happiness, And every Tomorrow a Vision of Hope. Look well therefore to this Day! Such is the Salutation of the Dawn!

And thank you all for reading my posts each day. Get moving Get up and get going. If you feel lousy, it will make you feel much better, and if you already feel good, it will make you feel great. You know all those things you've been meaning to get done for the past six months? Pick one right now and make it happen today. Life is much more rewarding when you actively participate in it. This very moment there are good times in your life just waiting to be created. Do you feel the need to be more positive about life and about the world in which you live? Then get moving and get yourself positively engaged in it all. The moment you take positive action, your outlook begins to change. When you're making a difference, the world is suddenly a much better place. Get hot, get cold, get tired, get informed, get out of your comfort zone and get involved in this magnificent life. Drink in the delightful richness of a life fully lived. -- Ralph Marston

You know all those things you've been meaning to get done for the past six months? Pick one right now and make it happen today. I have found that, just as my "one day at a time" has added up to months, and now to two years of recovery..so also has doing things one day at a time within this last year has added up to achievements that I could not have believed reached if attempted "all at once". Thanks Indie! accomplished

I am gonna git out there and do something today.. Procrastination can get me into a world of hurt and frustration.. and I must emember.today is a gift..It ishere and now..I have no clue what will happen tomarr.. So today I will suit up, show up, and do what I am guided to do today and be grateful I have the precious present moment in the NOW.. I will also remember I get to do these things today..I do not HAVE to do them.. I can do them because I have been given the gift of accountability and responsibility..and because I want to. Thank You Dear Indie...Hugs

This has always been one of my favourtites: If ... --Rudyard Kipling IF ... If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you; If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too: If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or being hated don't give way to hating, And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise; If you can dream -- and not make dreams your master; If you can think -- and not make thoughts your aim, If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster And treat those two impostors just the same: If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools, Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken, And stoop and build 'em up with worn-out tools; If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss, And lose, and start again at your beginnings, And never breathe a word about your loss: If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on!" If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with Kings -- nor lose the common touch, If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you, If all men count with you, but none too much: If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run, Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And -- which is more -- you'll be a Man, my son! -- Rudyard Kipling

Oh, mine too Annie. I love that poem and hadn't thought of it for a long time. Thanks for sharing it again.

Blaise Pascal: Our achievements of today are but the sum total of our thoughts of yesterday. You are today where the thoughts of yesterday have brought you and you will be tomorrow where the thoughts of today take you.
