Not Minding What Happens

December 8th, 2011

J. Krishnamurti, the great Indian spiritual guru… the “secret” of his teaching is:

“I don’t mind what happens”

If you are living in the Now, in this moment, then you accept whatever is happening right now and you flow with it. Surrender and acceptance of the NOW.

Today I am practicing “not minding what happens.”

As always, finding a truth is easier than actually putting it into use in your life.

I want to use what I learn to make my life more meaningful.

Change your Mantra

December 7th, 2011

Your Mantra is that phrase about yourself that you hear over and over in your head and only really stop to recognize when someone like me says….

“What is your Mantra?”

Mine has always been

“There will never be enough Money. You will always be Poor.”

So, no matter how much money I made in my life, no matter what I was doing, how hard I was working, how much I tried to manage my finances. The MANTRA kept playing and of course the money was never enough.

First ask yourself

“What is your Mantra?”

Then ask yourself

“Is it working for me?”

If the answer is no then you have to go about the business of changing it to something that will serve you better.

That is what I plan to do.

I am going to try real hard this next couple of weeks to add some physical activity.. this one is hard for me.

Oprah’s Super Soul Sunday

Super Soul Sunday

This is truly a wonderful way to spend your Sundays.

If you are at church, DVR it!!

This is the most positive TV out there.

She has different spiritual and motivational guests every week. With in depth interviews and practical advice about the journey towards self discovery and growth.

There are also little snippets called “Soul Pancake” that are really fun and positive.

I hate when I miss it.

Go Oprah.

The Negativity Train

December 7th, 2011

I refuse to get on board.

I have torn up my ticket.

I pray for empty cars.

I hope it goes off the end of a broken track, into a deep black abyss, never to be seen again.

Could I make myself more clear?

The Rising Tide

December 5th, 2011

Rising Tide

 

Ever feel the rising tide.

You know its coming.

You hold on tight.

You take a deep breath.

You pray for a boat.

 

Then it does come and nothing can prepare you for the inevitability of the flood of whatever except the fact that you know that the same wave that drowns you now will lift you up on the next cycle.
