Win as if you were used to it, lose as if you enjoyed it for a change. - Erick Golnik

Spreading Your Light

How You Affect Others Daily

Everything we do or say has the potential to affect the whole; imagine how powerful that is.

As the pace and fullness of modern life serve to isolate us from one another, the contact we do share becomes vastly more significant. We unconsciously absorb each other’s energy, adopting the temperament of those with whom we share close quarters, and find ourselves changed after the briefest encounters. Everything we do or say has the potential to affect not only the individuals we live, work, and play with but also those we’ve just met. Though we may never know the impact we have had or the scope of our influence, accepting and understanding that our attitudes and choices will affect others can help us remember to conduct ourselves with grace at all times. When we seek always to be friendly, helpful, and responsive, we effortlessly create an atmosphere around ourselves that is both uplifting and inspiring.

Most people rarely give thought to the effect they have had or will have on others. When we take a few moments to contemplate how our individual modes of being affect the people we spend time with each day, we come one step closer to seeing ourselves through the eyes of others. By asking ourselves whether those we encounter walk away feeling appreciated, respected, and liked, we can heighten our awareness of the effect we ultimately have. Something as simple as a smile given freely can temporarily brighten a person’s entire world. Our value-driven conduct may inspire others to consider whether their own lives are reflective of their values. A word of advice can help others see life in an entirely new fashion. And small gestures of kindness can even prove to those embittered by the world that goodness still exists. By simply being ourselves, we influence other’s lives in both subtle and life-altering ways.

To ensure that the effect we have is positive, we must strive to stay true to ourselves while realizing that it is the demeanor we project and not the quality of our wondrous inner landscapes that people see. Thus, as we interact with others, how we behave can be as important as who we are. If we project our passion for life, our warmth, and our tolerance in our facial features, voice, and choice of words, every person who enters our circle of influence will leave our presence feeling at peace with themselves and with us. You never know whose life you are affecting, big or small. Try to remember this as you go out into the world each day.

Another thought from me

Of all the choices and experience, they've brought us to the here and now. So many lives we have in front of us, the choices are ours to make, our lives are ours to follow.

and have begun striving for ourselves.

we borrow it from our Children.

we are the products of our imagination. "

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.
Douglas Adams

You
are not here to fix anything, because nothing is broken, but everything
is continually changing and expanding. Release your struggle, and seek
joy and fun, and in doing so, you will align with the fantastic
expanding rhythm of this Universe.
...
- Abraham-Hicks

There are two primary choices in life: to accept conditions as they exist, or accept the responsibility for changing them.

May today there be peace within

Far be it from me to read chain mail, but this quotation is floating around in cyber space, and I like it enough to capture it. It one of the one's that say to foward to blah blah blah.. that isn't going to happy, but I'd like to give it honor by capturing it.... wonder who wrote it, it really is a great affirmation.

"May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge settle into your bones and allow your soul the freedom to sing, dance, praise and love. It is there for each and every one of us.

SO, YOU WANNA BE A WITCH, EH????

SO, YOU WANNA BE A WITCH, EH????
PAniteowl
Jacci Sutton

------------------

Well, sit right here, by my side,
and I'll tell you the secrets of the tide ...
And just get comfy, honey child,
While I speak of nature, free and wild.
But, you don't have a cloak, or pointed hat??
Bah!! and Piffle!! ..
What's with that?
The Witch is worn within the soul,
not donned for occasions, or kept in a bowl.

When you think of witches, you tremble at magic?
Oh, silly girl, that is indeed tragic!
Well, take a deep breath, and hold tight to my hand,
and together we'll dream to the edge of the land.
Where forest and sky kiss the edge of the waters,
where spirits as we, claim a kinship with daughters
of elements born before words are remembered, and feelings,
and thoughts are no longer hindered.

Tis' the every day things, that witches are 'ware of,
The Sun and the Moon, and the wee tiny cherub,
who tugs at our heart strings and drives us to madness,
yet gives us such joy, and fills us with gladness.
A soft gentle rain, nudging buds to full flower.
Hurricane! Twister! .. Such terrible power!
Candles, and hearth fire, warming and scented.
Forests ablaze! .. Volcanic stacks vented!
A mantle of snow, both preserves and gives pleasure.
Avalanche! Iceberg!! ..
So full of treasure.

The Warmth of the Sun, bringing Life we so cherish.
Bleak desert landscape.
Burnt tundra... we perish.
Now open your eyes, and look closely at me.

You came here so fearful, now what do you see?
A kindly old woman? An evil old hag?
A cloak of maturity? A dirty old rag?
Both sides of the coin.
Light and dark we encompass
Good and evil abide, and still walk among us.

So be very sure, that a Witch you will be ...
for we own it ALL ...
you and me.... you and me.
Blessed Be ...

Living by faith is not a feeling we have; it is a conscious decision we must make. ~Joyce Meyer

I've been quiet and not doing much to balance my day to day "now" life besides bringing a new life into the world, which honestly, means much more balance in the future. In the meantime I'm finding myself napping lots. For the first trimester my energy went into keeping the little bean growing and healthy, giving my all in thought and spirit. I am coming up to the second trimester and feeling my heart again reaching out instead of within.

Art of Conversation

The real art of conversation is not only to say the right thing at the right time, but also to leave unsaid the wrong thing at the tempting moment.
