A Light in the Echos of Darkness

I feel compelled to write something, do something, say something about the world today, and recent events, you all know what I mean.  But, I am at a loss.  Because I feel helpless, even though I know I'm not.  What I do know is I will spend the rest of my life at least trying to bring some peace to unrest and healing to others trauma.  As a Christian, it's all that is in Jesus that I love.  Every day, I aspire to what he taught about non-judgement and love.  Still, I fall short every day; and more often than I like, I miss the mark in struggling with my own Ego.  Yet, I keep on.  I invite everyone to use social media, FB, and other platforms wisely and judiciously, instead of perpetrating ugliness and division.  Civility and respect have been lost (especially in politics), and two wrongs never make a right.  Your neighbor is YOUR neighbor.  The President is OUR President.  WE, yes, we are all in this thing called, Life, together, as people, as human beings.  We only have THIS moment, to share with each other, and no other.

So ... Please practice self-control in your thoughts and actions. My parents and grandparents lived and preached self-control, which seems so lost in society today.   Hiding behind a phone screen makes it too easy to take others to task. It matters what you bring to the world - your energy, your attitude are contagious - please make it kind and considerate, be a light in the echos of the darkness in the sad events of our day.

Inspirational Quotes

This section is devoted to inspirational quotes I've written over the years.

• "The threads of your life will come together to weave the quilt of your business and life. Positive threads will bring you joy, and the seemingly negative threads will bring life lessons necessary for later events, yet unforeseen. Each thread is necessary, as we are to one another, for creating the greater whole, for who you are and who you want to become."  (2005)

•   "When you come from a place of perfect peace, you don't find flaws or faults or negativity, you only see that which needs to be transformed into something greater and the struggle to attain that. In a place of perfect peace, compassion replaces self-righteousness, and forgiveness replaces judgement, thereby planting the seeds for continual transformation from both within and without."  (2019)

•   "The Wise person takes their key weakness and turns it into a strength." (2019)

Note: 
Spirituality is not religious, rather it draws on the many teachings of individuals who sought to improve humanity. It is a, "Take what you like, and leave the rest.", broad brush approach to encompassing a wide range of human experience. My role is neither to foist any one belief system on anyone or create converts. In my writings, I draw on many modalities.
