What you leave
behind is not what is engraved in stone monuments,
but what is woven into the lives of others.

something to hide, being transparent is feeling exposed;
When you have nothing to hide, being transparent is being open.

I AM in nature.
I AM in all things. Be satisfied and content to wait and watch and pray.
This is not the time to hold up My plan by your impatience and self-will,
so wait upon Me in absolute faith and confidence. Hold the vision of perfection
ever before you and know that it will manifest in form. Simply know that
My will is being done and that the more you are in tune and rhythm with
Me, the more quickly will it manifest in form. Let it unfold step by step.
Watch all opposition and negativity being swept away and behold My hand
in everything. Know without a shadow of doubt that with Me all things are
possible. My ways are truly wondrous and nothing and no one can withstand
them.

The reasonable
man adapts himself to the conditions that surround him. The unreasonable
man adapts surrounding conditions to himself. All progress depends on the

Our character
... is an omen of our destiny, and the more integrity we have and keep,
the simpler and nobler that destiny is likely to be.

Don't aim at success
- the more you aim at it and make it a target, the more you are going to
miss it. For success, like happiness, cannot be pursued; it must ensue
... as the unintended side-effect of one's personal dedication to a course
greater than oneself.
Viktor Frankl

No matter how

When we learn
to love the truth, we can fearlessly face anything that troubles us, and
let it become the gateway to new awareness, peace and wisdom. We discover
for ourselves that what frightened us is actually without substance, and
deep peace takes its place.
To be free, there is no need to kill off the ego. No internal battle is
required, just a deep commitment to self-honesty, a willingness to soften
your resistance, and a love of the Real. Then we can see the boundless
love that is always underneath everything.
Miranda - @ Findhorn.org
