What story
are you living? What story is shaping your life, your work, your relationships?
These are times when each of us is called to dream a more
expansive, loving, creative dream. Expand your story; expand your dream;
experience a greater joy, beauty, Love, grace, and potential.
Dare to be amazed. Write a new story.

The enemy is fear.
We think it is hate but it is fear.
Gandhi - from Ken Lizotte |

In the battle of life, it is not
the critic who counts; nor the one who points out how the strong person
stumbled, or where the doer of a deed could have done better.
The credit belongs to the person
who is actually in the arena; whose face is marred by dust and sweat and
blood, who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again,
because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; who does actually
strive to do deeds; who
knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotion, spends oneself in a worthy
cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement;
and who at worst, if he or she fails, at least fails while daring greatly.
Far better it is to dare mighty
things, to win glorious triumphs even though checkered by failure, than
to rank with those timid spirits who neither enjoy nor suffer much because
they live in the gray twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat.
Theodore Roosevelt

should be, stop you. Go on anyway. Everything depends on those
who go on anyway.

Beginning the
day, I see that life is a miracle.
Attentive to each moment, I keep my mind clear like a calm river.
Waking up this morning, I smile.
Twenty-four brand new hours are before me.
I vow to live fully in each moment, and to look at all beings with eyes
of compassion.

I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me.
And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.
