(Companionship or close association."the experience has brought us together")

We are living through challenging times, and we will get through this TOGETHER.  Love unites us while hate divides us.  We don't have to agree on everything in order to stand shoulder to shoulder with each other.  In fact when we hear a different perception, we might learn something new!

None of us came out of the womb knowing everything.  We learned step by step through our experiences.  In fact, I ALWAYS learned more from my mistakes than I did from my successes.

Let's not allow others to divide us.  In truth, there is one race...the Human Race.

Let's Grow Stronger, Together!

Have you ever had an experience of playing a game you've played for years, but this time with a new person.  All of a sudden there's a difference of opinion on how the game works.  So you pulled out the rules. To your surprise, all these years, you've been playing the game wrong.

Maybe it's time we pull out the "RULES".

Let's all respect each other and play by the correct rules.

The only power we really have is right here in this very moment.

We can't change the past, and the future isn't here yet.  All we have is right here and right now.

That is why meditation is sometimes referred to as a Powerful Pause.

For when we sit quietly, disconnect from the thoughts in our head; and connect to the feelings in our heart, we are connected to ALL THINGS and INFINITE POSSIBILITIES.

That's the Powerful part!

ARE PEOPLE TRYING TO GET YOU TO BELIEVE THEIR STORY?

There are people in the world who have a vested interest in manipulate the mass population in believing the world events a certain way.

There also might be well meaning people in our life that are trying to get us to believe their perspectives or beliefs.  These beliefs could have even been handed down to them by family, religious organizations, social media, or even the news.

Whatever we believe will affect how we make our decisions.  Therefore, isn't it worth investigating the situation for our self?

Objectively look around the situation, is there a broader perspective that isn't being shared, or presented?  Are we receiving all the information for us to decide, or are we being told the outcome for us to believe without question?

These are important questions, because if we are free people, then we have the freedom to think for ourselves.

If we are going to make decisions based on information, then we hold the responsibilit...

"Now is the time for all good men and women to come to the aid of their country"

Great people throughout history have all been faced with the mental process of standing up for what's right.  Justice for all people and administered equally .

Martin Luther King Jr. stood up for justice in a respectful and non-violent way.  Such peaceful actions took clear-minded principles conveyed in a strong, yet calm manner.

We all are equipped with these abilities, and we have been shown how to display them.  Now we just need to bring our actions to this process.

This takes an element of courage.  The easiest way to bring in the courage, is to participate in local community meetings, arm and arm with your friends who also believe the community should be governed will liberty and justice for all.

Courage Is Contagious!

The state of being free or at liberty rather than in confinement or under physical restraints

Exemption from external control, interference or regulation

The power to determine action without restraints

In a world that focuses on sport athletes and celebrities, maybe we need to take a more realistic look at the true heroes in life.

Our military men and women who defend our freedom, for sure.  Medical personnel, police men and women, EMT and first responders, absolutely. 

What about the everyday person who teaches their children right from wrong?  Or the people who attend the local School Board meetings or City and County meetings?  Do you know if your local community is being ran honestly and with integrity?  These are also "Super Hero" positions!

If our world has gone astray, then it's up to all of us to step up and fill in the gaps.

Notice what talents you have.  Where can you assist?  If everyone contributes something, it won't be long before we are living in a world of "OUR" choosing.

Thank You For All You Do!

What Do You Want To Be When You Grow Up?

2023 might be over, but your life is still relevant into 2024 and beyond!  So what do you want to do, or become in 2024?

We are all creative.  Many times in our lives, there have been people (knowingly or unknowingly) who squashed or diminished our creativity.  Yes, that happens to all of us.  Let's not count how many times we get knocked down....Let's count how many times we get back up!!

That's were our power is, get up, make a change and get back into the game of life!

I don't know about you, but I've learned much more from things not going right, than when they went right the first time.

Life's a journey.  Let's learn and grow from it!

We Are Creators!

Wherever we put our attention, that is what we are calling forth into our lives.

So, in these days we're currently going through, are we worried about going to war?  Or are we loving the fact that people are standing up for peace?

Are you worried you don't have enough money?  Or are you so happy to have a roof over your head?

It's worth taking a look at the quality of thoughts running through your mind.  Once you fully realize that whatever you're thinking about IS creating your tomorrow, then, chances are you would "re-phase" your words and your emotions.

First we have a thought, then we have "feelings" about that thought.  The stronger our emotions are, the faster we are pulling the "good", or the "bad" into our lives.

Take a Leap Of Faith into this new year.  Think good, happy and loving thoughts.  Then feel strong emotions about those thoughts.

YOU'RE GOING TO LOVE THE RESULTS!
