— Oprah Winfrey

Start Living Now

“Start living now.
Stop saving the good china
for that special occasion.
Stop withholding your love
until that special person materializes.
Every day you are alive is a special occasion.
Every minute, every breath, is a gift from God.”
– Mary Manin Morrissey

Taking the Risk to be Alive

“The only way to store information is by agreement. The belief system is like a Book of Law that rules our mind. Our biggest fear is taking the risk to be alive. Humans punish themselves endlessly for not being what they believe they should be. We have the need to be accepted and to be loved by others, but we cannot accept and love ourselves.”
– don Miguel Ruiz

A Reverence for Life

“By having a reverence for life,
we enter into a spiritual relation with the world.
By practicing reverence for life we become good, deep, and alive.”
– Albert Schweitzer

The Rapture Associated with Being Alive

“We’re so engaged in doing things
to achieve purposes of outer value
that we forget the inner value,
the rapture that is associated
with being alive, is what it is all about.”
– Joseph Campbell

Truly Alive

“We can only be said to be truly alive in those moments
when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.”

Celebrate!

“If you’re reading this…
Congratulations, you’re alive.
If that’s not something to smile about,
then I don’t know what is.”
― Chad Sugg, Monsters Under Your Head

This month we are going to celebrate! What are we celebrating? Everything. Life, joy, happiness, family, friendship, nature, our oneness.

As we go through this life we lose our sense of the miracle of life and how precious every minute is. Instead of being something to celebrate, life becomes a burden. But there is absolutely nothing “normal” or “inevitable” about that. There is always something to celebrate, even if we have to look for it.

So hang on, smile just because you are alive and let’s Celebrate!

Living on Holy Ground

So, when we begin to realize that God lives in through and as us and that everywhere we stand is holy ground, what happens next? To put it simply things begin to change.

We begin to see all goodness, all Godness that surrounds us. We see the divine in the places, situations and people we encounter in our lives. Life and definitely relationships become easier. We seek to heal the divisions in our world rather than creating new ones.

We were created as part of one great whole. The separation we experience is simply an illusion. Once we realize this we can begin to heal ourselves and our world. We can begin to love those we now fear.

Does this all seem impossible? It isn’t, but it doesn’t magically all happen at once. It begins one person, one action and one decision at a time. Will you make love your decision?

The Unlearning of Fear and Acceptance of Love

“Love is what we were born with. Fear is what we learned here. The spiritual journey is the relinquishment, or unlearning, of fear and the acceptance of love back into our hearts.”

—Marianne Williamson
