The Clarity Mind State is a state where one resides completely and unequivocally in the present moment.
Life flows from moment to moment effortlessly and easily.
It’s a brand new day, a new start – where do you begin? The place to start is where you are right now.
It’s easy to feel lost and confused when you expect a clear master plan to unfold. In actuality, the master plan does exist, with every small step you take. The actions you take right now are your new beginnings.
As a coach, I’m in the business of helping people find solutions to their lives. I’ve found that it’s not uncommon for clients to know what they don’t want but few know what they do want.
They tell me how unhappy they are in their current jobs or lives but they are unwilling to invest the necessary time to write about their passions, meditate or reflect on exactly what will bring them the fulfilling life they desire.
When you hold resentment toward another, you are bound to that person or condition by an emotional link that is stronger than steel. Forgiveness is the only way to dissolve that link and get free.” ~Catherine Ponder
Forgiveness is your response to an injustice either toward yourself or others. It is your conscious turning toward the “good” in the face of a wrongdoing.
It is the generosity of a compassionate spirit, where you make a choice to give the gifts of non-judgment, mercy and love.
Every time you smile at someone, it is an action of love, a gift to that person, a beautiful thing. -Mother Teresa
God doesn’t require us to succeed; he only requires that you try. -Mother Teresa
I was amazed in reading a review of Mother Teresa: Come Be My Light that the saint from India had such difficulty in sustaining an on-going presence of God in her life. I share a similar problem. What follows are three spiritual journeys I take to combat the problem. (more…)
I love to think of nature as an unlimited broadcasting station, through which God speaks to us every hour, if we will only tune in. ~George Washington Carver
Being French Canadian and part Cree Indian my love of the land burns strong inside me. Last night while camping in the Nantahala Forest I decided to go for a moonlit paddle. I slipped my 17 foot Kevlar canoe into the cold gray water and suddenly my world was transformed.
The full moon revealed a silent panorama of shadow, light and sparkle. Silence prevailed except for the pulsating lullaby of tree frogs and the lapping waves against my boat. With eager strokes I moved closer to the center of the lake. In awe, I peered behind me to gaze on the glistening triangular reflection of moonlight left in the wake of fresh rippling water. There was a hint of pine in the autumn air and a gentle breeze brushed my face. I looked up in amazement at the diamond-studded sky. Reflections of cottage lights glistening on the water only added more stars to the spectacle.
There is nothing in the world so much like prayer as music is. ~William P. Merrill
Music was my full time career 6 nights a week for 14 years. I’ve also played over 1000 events, weddings and affairs, but last night was my first time playing a kirtan.
