Snips


Go on your journey. Don't judge their journey, and don't let them judge yours. All persons are free to have the experiences their souls lead them to.
Many of us started our journey by having the experiences others thought we should. Some of us tried to dictate the lessons and adventures of others, too. This caused pain and confusion for all. Learning those lessons, the lessons of setting each other free, became an important part of our journey. But now we're on to a new part.
Pack your bags. Get out your map. Don't worry about where you'll go and what you'll see. Go where your heart leads. Your soul knows the way. It will speak quietly through the voice of your heart, your wisdom, your intuition. Listen to the voice, the quiet voice within, that assures you you're safe. You will meet and learn from everyone you need to along the way. Don't limit your own experiences. Don't limit the experiences of those you love, or those you meet along the way.
Start today to follow your heart. Map out your own journey. Have the adventure of a lifetime.
Melody Beattie

" We embark upon the creation of a peaceful lifestyle by recognizing the need, daily, to cleanse our minds just as we cleanse our bodies. Through morning prayers and meditation, we embark upon the day spiritually prepared. Without this preparation, we enter the day with yesterday’s anxieties—our own and those of millions of others. Through the grace of God, we can be cleansed each day of yesterday’s sorrow and yesterday’s pain. "
Marianne Williamson

AA Thought of the Day / "When we look back, we realize that the things which came to us when we put ourselves in God's hands were better than anything we could have planned." / AA., pg. 100

If you go and sit in the corner and get comfortable and go inside and go on a spiritual quest, you'll find results depending upon the method by which you choose to travel inwardly. If you sit in fantasy, you will have fantasy results. Do you get it? If you choose to sit there and hash over old things, you get hashed-over results. So take the method and medium of greatest upliftment to you and anchor yourself onto that -- the Name of God, if you will. Call out that name inside of you. And as you call out, you get stronger inside, and you lift up until you grab God's hand. You say, "God." God may say, "Yes, I'm right here, and I've always been here."
John Roger

Deep at the center of my being there is an infinite well of Love. I now allow this Love to flow to the surface. It fills my heart, my body, my mind, my consciousness, my very being and radiates out from me in all directions and returns to be multiplied. The more Love I use and give, the more I have to give: the supply is endless.
Louise Hay

“No matter what you've gone through in the past, no matter how many setbacks you've suffered or who or what has tried to thwart your progress, today is a new day, and God wants to do a new thing in your life.”
Joel Osteen

As human beings, our greatness lies not so much in being able to remake the world - that is the myth of the atomic age - as in being able to remake ourselves. Mahatma Gandhi

Seek goodness in others. Love more persons, more impersonally, more unselfishly, without thought of return. The return, never fear, will take care of itself.
Henry Drummond

Let yourself be silently drawn by the strange pull of what you really love. It will not lead you astray.
Rumi
