Why

Why is a word we do not use often enough, ask ourselves why? as we demand more, as wars continue. Why?do some suffer and others not. Why? is an important word.

Blowing in the Wind

At times, life is like a call on the wind,
We never know where it may blow us

Suffering

Suffering is part of life, all of us will suffer at some stage in life....when a loved one dies, or there is a tradegy close to us. We have to accept that at times we may suffer, but it is part of lifes great map. If we recognise this then with acceptance it will pass. However we must be careful not to suffer unduly, or feel that we are a victim.

Apologies for the break but was completing and preparing illustrations for my book

Seeds of Love

You will discover in life that the love you recieve

stems from the sowing of those very seeds of love so long ago.

Words

We should take care with our words and the tone in which they are uttered.

We must remember words can either heal or harm....and the choice is ours to make.

Give Peace a Chance

The quieter you become,

The more you can hear

Baba Ram Dass


And if you think about it, the louder you are, the less you hear.

Quietness evokes a peace and serenity around us, it creates inspiration and time for thought.

We hear more of the world around us, words touch us deeper and we observe and see better.

Loudness breaks our thoughts, ruins our peace,
and blinds us to many of the beautiful things in the world.
I know which I prefer.

Hope

Everyone of us that walks the pathway of life needs hope, to carry them through the difficult times, to help us continue our journey. Hopes gives us the strength and desire within that allows us to continue to travel and battle through life.Without hope, we give up, become negative in thought and action. Hope and "Will" go hand in hand, in turn leading each other.

The unseen

Is it easier to believe in only what we see?and make judgement from that in front of us?
But doesn´t all that we see have an unseen side, a more valuable often unacknowledged other side? For example, a mother smiles at her child, we often miss the love behind the action, or what if someone consoles us when we are sad, the action of comfort we see but what we do not always see is that person absorbing and feeling our sadness.
Behind every thing we see lies a part unseen.

Silence is golden.

At times it is necessary to seek time alone. time for us only to bond with our thoughts and cleanse our souls. A spiritual cleaning that will then invite inspiration, inner peace and help to regain our energies. I identify only too well when I need to take some solitary time, I become anxious, irritable and blocked creatively.I have to take my self away and be alone, when my partner has to go away so I use this time for being solitary and to allow my chi to breath afresh, with meditation and relaxation. If we allow our chi to become tired and contaminated so will it affect our spirit. Breath anew and regenerate, and don´t be afraid of the silence and lonliness.

Silence is golden.

It´s ok to say No

It has been a while since I last posted but my life has been cluttered, things you promise to do for people, answers you want to find, visitors that un invited move in on your private space, and do not consider that all though you may be at home all day, that you actually are working. I am totally amazed that the last two visitors decided that his was the best internet cafe out, and prevented me from catching up with my work. We are not talking about an hour here but almost 24/7 chatting or playing poker. Excuse my lack of spiritual writing here but the main point I am trying to make is....that it is ok to say no! and I did, and I felt bad but I also suffered from the break in my creativity and the work routine i had adapted. So sometimes it is necessary to say No or not now, or I need to work, we may feel guilty, but in reality we know that maybe it has to be said, whatever the price.

Mental Sunshine

Let us begin every waking day

after dawn has broken and lit our way.

To give thanks and allow us to radiate joy, happiness and mental subshine,

to everyone who crosses our path today.

Look before we leap

At times maybe we are too critical of others without really stopping to think why. What is it about that person, or the action that person has done to warrant criticism? Is it envy that causes us to speak with a bad tongue? or is it because we do not like them, or they us.

There are many reasons why, that we within ourselves spit out criticism of another, it may be an inferiority of own hidden deep within us. Think before you speak, ask yourself why? before you speak.

Remember, Criticism can be constructive, but said wrongly or for the wrong reason can be extremely destructive.

Take my Hand

At times we wander through life aimlessly, we reach out in hope that all will be ok.

At times someone takes our hand, whilst at other times we feel lost and alone,

but truly........

we are never alone

Curiosities

Curiosities, we all have them in our personality. It´s what makes us uniqu Mae, some will refer to these curiosities as personality traits that are best hidden, whilst other will refer to the person as an excentric or weird, but our curiosities are ours, that make us who we are so we should not try to hide them from anyone, or change them because people wish you to. We must always remain faithful to who and what we are, and we should always accept others for who and what they are. A little more acceptance may bring about more peace in this world.

Sorry no picture is posted but I have a problem with uploading photos at the moment

important things in Life

All of us are on this earth for a limited amount of time, some less than others. Therefore it is better that we use ourtime here wisely and respectfully. Love each other as if it is your last days on this earth. You will not have time for bad thoughts

Changes

Don´t wait to see if what needs changing changes, Instead offer an example to others and change it, and they will change what needs to be changed instead of waiting for it to happen.

Growth

Life is nothing but a constant process of growth through living ,loving and learning.Each day we live better, lover stronger the people we care for and learn from each event and each passing minute. Growth is opening our hearts and our minds.

Women against violence

This is my thought for the end of the year.

Once again, this year I have heard so much of violence against women. Hear we hear of the deaths of many women assassinated by their partners, who still wish to control them. We do not hear of those that live in fear, hidden away behind locked doors.

In many respects women have moved forward in the world, but in other respects we still have a long way to go.

If we make the decision to leave an abusive partner, be it mental or physical, then so be it. It is our right to take decisions and act apon them. It is our right to be free and not live eternally in fear.

Another year is ending, and I would say to those living in a fearful situation, be strong and seek help. The pathway may not be easy but with courage you can build a new future. It is your right to be free and live in peace.

"It is not a garment I cast off today, but a skin that I rip with my bare hands" Khalil Gibran
