My Baby's Report Card :-)

I am sending a cake with him to school on Monday so he can celebrate and be encouraged :-)

All That Is Now

I am in the perfect place at the perfect time.


Meditation

Holy One, I choose to focus on this moment and forget the past. I know that now is the time for me. I cannot change what has gone before, but I can and do open myself to all that is now. My ego would have me beat myself eternally for what I did or didn't do, keeping me stuck in the "what might have been" places. No more! Right now, in this very moment, I am awake and ready. I forgive myself for all errors of the past, and I know that the best is yet to be.Y our presence within me is like a mighty river, carrying me forward in a continuous flow of good. Divine order is established in all my affairs. I have everything I need to be happy, now.
Thank You. Amen

Buddhist Wisdom

Whatever an enemy might do to an enemy, or a foe to a foe,

the ill-directed mind can do to you even worse.

Whatever a mother, father or other kinsman might do for you,

the well-directed mind can do for you even better


Dhammapada, 3, translated by Thanissaro Bhikkhu

To Anonymous #2 - Haliegh

I strongly feel that little Haleigh in Florida is no longer alive. I sense her presence within 10-25 miles of her home.
She was abducted by a white male in his 40's, heavy set and unknown to the child. He drives a van, light color, with dents or rust patches. Florida or Georgia license plates.


I extend my deepest condolences to Haliegh's family.

Peace,
Rose

Storms of Emotion

"When a storm comes, it stays for some time, and then it goes. An emotion is like that too-it comes and stays for a while, and then it goes. An emotion is only an emotion. We are much, much more than an emotion." ~Thich Nhat Hanh quote from : Be Free Where You Are
Affirmation
I am more than I thought I was.
Meditation
Dear God, I know that storms are temporary conditions and will pass away. Even when a storm is fierce, my anchor in You keeps me steadfast. Many things have changed and more changes come, still I stand in the truth of love and know that I shall not be moved. Because You are always with me; I am stronger than any storm. I can withstand any condition or situation, I am filled with Your perfect peace, I am a dynamic and evolving expression of that which You are, I am happy, joyful, calm, peaceful and serene. So it is!

Dalai Lama on Cooperation and Harmony

I come from the East, most of you [here] are Westerners. If I look at you superficially, we are different, and if I put my emphasis on that level, we grow more distant. If I look on you as my own kind, as human beings like myself, with one nose, two eyes, and so forth, then automatically that distance is gone. We are the same human flesh. I want happiness; you also want happiness. From that mutual recognition, we can build respect and real trust of each other. From that can come cooperation and harmony.

-His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Humility

"Humility brings peace for it does not claim that you must rule the universe, nor judge all things as you would have them be." ~The Song of Prayer
Affirmation
I accept the will of God as my own.
Meditation
Dear God, I am not sure what to pray for today. Sometimes, I have thought that I knew what was best in a given situation; only to have what I prayed for turn out to be only a further complication. So in this moment, I pray for Your will for me and for our world. I do not know what the solutions are to my own challenges or the bigger issues we face as a nation and as a species on this planet. I seek an understanding of Your will and the faith to live it out. I pray for wisdom to notice where You are leading me. I ask for the courage to let go and immerse myself in You. As I release this prayer to the workings of Spirit, I am content to let it be. Amen

Moving Within

“Journeys bring power and love back into you. If you can’t go somewhere, move in the passageways of the self. They are like shafts of light, always changing, and you change when you explore them.” ~Rumi

Affirmation
I am a pilgrim on a journey of expanding consciousness.

Meditation
Dear God, In quiet reflection, I turn within toward the Light that is my life.I am no longer afraid of the transformation that is taking place in me. Beyond thoughts and feelings is a truth more glorious than I had imagined. I surrender my self to this incredible journey. All is well with my soul. Amen

River of Life

"God in the midst of us is a great steady stream of renewing and cleansing and vitalizing life, and we can have the use of this life if we will open up the channels of its flowing and ourselves draw from this source." ~Myrtle Fillmore

Affirmation
God is the source of my life.

Meditation
Dear God, I open my heart and mind to Your infinite presence. You are the author and source of all life. In You, I live and move. I feel the flow of this life-river in me now filling me with strength and love. From this place of awareness, I bless the world and all her people. I am a willing channel for You to use. May it be for me according to Your will. Thank You, God! Amen

Open Heart

Dalai Lama on Anger

Even in the case of individuals, there is no possibility to feel happiness through anger. If in a

difficult situation one becomes disturbed internally, overwhelmed by mental discomfort, then

external things will not help at all. However, if despite external difficulties or problems,

internally one's attitude is of love, warmth, and kindheartedness, then problems can be faced

and accepted.

-His Holiness the Dalai Lama

Am I right?

Hi Rose,

I have a date set for court asking for discovery. This was all started by my son's father. Ever since I got the transfer of venue form his county to mine, now he wants to drop the case he started. I am agreeable as long as we make things fair this time. even amount of vacation and I asked to keep healthcare coverage for our son because I am more stable. I told him I am more than willing work things out however, I wanted child support recalculated if I am to carry Brandon on my policy. And for other reasons....lavish Caribbean vacations, expensive presents, purchasing a franchise, new cars and so on. He is convinced he will have support lowered and claim full custody. Do you think I am right pursing child support recalculations? 5-3-59 SYZ

Thanks! Jennifer

Celebration of Love

Celebration of Love

"Love is always bestowed as a gift - freely, willingly and without expectation. We don't love to be loved; we love to love." ~Leo Buscaglia

Affirmation
I invite Love to transform me today.

Meditation
Dear God, How wonderful it is to focus on the Love that fills our hearts. Beyond the greeting cards, candy and romantic dinners, Love flows as a mighty wave of energy; changing everything it touches. We open ourselves to this river of Love and invite it to have its way with us. May love be evident in all we do or say this day. So it is! Amen
