If you come across this post for the next day, week, or month I have friend who needs some affirmative prayers.  She had a heart attack recently and we have been doing prayers for her.  She is in my practitioner class and has been a great class mate and volunteers as the book store manager in my church.  I know she is perfection and there is no her, me or you.  There is only us.

Peace and Health.

My elderly neighbor passed away the last Friday.  I never really knew him but I thought I should at least post this as a memory that I should look upon in the future and reflect.  His passing taught me that I need to pay attention to my elderly neighbors. 

Best wishes to the family.

Peace and Love

Man does not exist for the purpose of making an impression upon his environment.  He does exist to express himself in and through his environment.  There is a a great difference.  Man does not exist to leave a lasting impression upon his environment.  Not at all.  It is not necessary that we leave any impression.  It is not necessary, if w should pass on tonight, that anyone should remember that we have ever lived.  All that means anything is that while we live, WE LIVE, and whereever we go from here we shall keep on living.

This has to be the best conversation I have heard in all of my listening to KWMU.  This may even include most of what I hear on NPR. 

If you have ever given a thought to what we unknowingly participate in every day you may feel new thoughts arise of hope.  There are people out there who are shifting the conscience of people.  The show culmunates all of my research and education about the subject.  You do not have to be affiliated with any party or anything organization to appreciate it.

Hope you find something useful in the conversation.

There is something that I have been wanting to share with the world for awhile now.  That something is gratitude.  I have been practicing Science Of Mind for three years now and the most powerful experience this far is surrounded by gratitude.  It's pretty hard to share some of the details with you so I will not do so in this forum.  However, there is a small story I would like to share. 

While staying in a state of gratitude and listening to my intution I was compelled to give a gift to another person.  That person was a friend whom I have known for a little over a year, our boys go to Boy Scouts, I got him hooked on fly fishing, and we talk on occasions when we pick the kids up from school.  How it started was us talking about tying flies for fly fishing.  He did not have the equipment nor the money at the time to buy what he needed to start tying his own flies.  Also, he is in the Armed Forces and does not make a lot of money.  Anyway, I felt compelled to buy him what he needed to get started.  It wasn't that much to me but it would me more to him.  So, I got the equipment and a gift card.  Now the gift card was a surprise to me as well but I did it any way.  Of course he was happy to get it, he came over with his brother and some other friends of mine and we tied flies and drank some beer.  It was a good time.  The interesting reciprocity of universe occured a week later.  While getting ready for a fishing trip my buddy gave me some waders, boots and wet socks that no longer fit him.  The equipment he gave me out of the blue was easily worth what I gave my other friend.  If that isn't enough, every other time I go into Walgreens I buy one of those $1 shoe the shoeless donation cards.  Simple enough right?  Another friend of mine was in a store and saw a shirt that remined them of me so they bought it for me.  They never bought anything for me before.  Over the weeks I have been telling this story to a group of people in my class.  One lady was so inspired that she gave me a book, worth well over $100, just to jump on board with what I call "Giving is Gratitude" wave.  I haven't heard her success story but it will be soon enough and it may be bigger than she imagined. 

So, if you ever think you cannot give, go to Walgreens.
