Take a Step
I can mold my future. Each day, each experience draws me to the next important step.
Some days it is harder than others to get going. So much to do, so many ”to do” lists. Then I remember, that I live here, today. I cannot change yesterday. tomorrow is but a dream. What I do and what I am TODAY is all that counts.
So the “to do” list can wait, a freind is on the phone and needs someone to hear her. A dog is lost and needs to find its home. My mom has a headache and needs me to massage her shoulders. The books, the dishes, they will wait. The living may not wait. The living may not be here tomorrow. Today is the day and the time that I have with them.
Time seems like the only gift that once given can not be taken back. Yet time can be regifted to another. So on this Misty day, the drizzle come down, the birds sang and called to be fed. This is a good day to live.
Peace and Blessings
Grace

Even more Fortune Cookies
I love Chinese Fortune cookies.

Please send me your favorite fortune that you have gotten or wish you had.
It doesn’t matter. Who is without a flaw?
Your dreams are messages.

And let the peace of God rule in your hearts. Colossian 3:15
The skills you have gathered will one day come in handy.
Your happiness is intertwined with your outlook on life.
Your flair for the creative takes an important place in your life.
The secret of getting ahead is getting started.
Kind words can be short and easy to speak, but their echoes are truly endless. – Mother Teresa.
Do not mistake temptation for opportunity.
Make two grins grow where there was only a grouch before.
Pray for what you want, but work for the things you need.
If not now, when? – The Talmud
Decide what you want and go for it.
Don’t forget to do good deeds as you accumulate wealth.
Your past success will be overshadowed by your future success.
The Lord gives us our faces, but we must provide the expression
Your many hidden talents will become obvious to those around you.
You are talented in many ways.
There is no better exercise for strengthening the heart than reaching down and lifting up another.
In the end there are three things that last: faith, hope and love; and the greatest of these is love.
Any rough times are behind you.
Be prepared to accept a wondrous opportunity in the days ahead!
With God all things are possible. – Matthew 19:26
Grand adventures await those who are willing to turn the corner.
If you would be loved, love and be lovable.
None of the secrets of success will work unless you do.
Miracles are natural; when they do not occur, something is amiss
Smiling often can make you look and feel younger.
The smart thing is to prepare for the unexpected.
Your heart will always make itself known through your words.
You are a true friend when you regard the trouble of your friend as your own.
Follow your instincts. That’s where true wisdom manifests itself.
There is yet time enough for you to take a different path.
A friend is a present you give yourself.
You are very expressive and positive in words, act and feeling.

Love is like wildflowers…it is often found in the most unlikely places.
A scholars ink lasts longer than a martyrs blood.
The Critic
That voice inside which says you cannot do something…You must do something…You are unable to do something.
A barrage of negative concepts.
The Critic may speak in your mother’s voice, your father’s voice…even in your own voice.
The Critic leaves you angry and frustrated and unable to go forward.
The critic is a stumbling block.
The Critic works on fear, anger and worry.
The Critic with its loud brash, demanding voice that out shouts your calm inner voice.
An antidote for the Critic is prayer.
Prayer—the quiet time for God. The Quiet Whisper can save you from the critic.
Can help you to move forward.
Try to practice the feeling and presence of God today
The Web
“We cannot live only for ourselves. A thousand fibers
connect us with our fellow men; and along these fibers
as sympathetic threads, our actions run as causes, and
they come back as effects.”
Herman Melville
Download life
“If you have a computer, hooked up to the Internet,
you have access to the biggest library in the world.
There’s not a question you can’t answer provided
you are willing to look for it carefully and patiently.
You think that’s neat? Try this.
Within every human heart is a permanent,
broadband link to the universe.
Look within, openly and sincerely, and you’ll always
find the solution to any problem… or, at least, an
idea that will lead you to such a solution.
Technology is smart but nature is smarter.
Today, just download a little wisdom
from the wonderful well within.”
-Jonathan Cainer
