Thought Of The Day

We  can not change  anything or anyone in our life  our parents, our boss or  the people  we share our house We can only change ourselves to fit in We are  responsible to  bring all the joy and happiness in our life They  don't care .They wont take responsibility for that and if  we wont we will be hurting ourselves and ruin our life When we  cry we end up crying alone  when we  choose to laugh  the whole world will share Laughter is  the greatest gift  to us from  God No other  living creature  is given that gift except we  Human.  Laughter bring miracle to our lives Smile and Laughter are  contagious Choose to smile a lot and Laugh  whenever you can You will start feeling good

It was September 1993 I was taking refuge from the Chilly winter of Ottawa Coming back from Oxfam where I was volunteering at that time It was windy and temperature 40 below zero In the downtown Ottawa  I was waiting for bus # 95 in the bus shelter I met Sultan, he was from Africa and of the age of my son For some reason I always try to get in touch with immigrants of any age from any country In the heart of heart I feel we all are in need of some sort of dialogue any dialogue looking and waiting to communicate In my opinion every human is a  seeking soul  wandering for love and affection sometimes we don't know the language still feel connected Smile the universal language always comes to our rescue It is always there To help everyone and To console 

In Canada summer means a lot really a lot We wait and dream so long for that and now cant wait to get out and roll We had a small backyard years back now we have a big backyard but no one has time to use it Everyone is out of the house Kids playing Basketball thanks to  Toronto Raptors Everyone can afford this game you just need a ball Parents relaxed they don't have to worry about the expensive Kits like in other sports G et one Pole outside and that's it It is only one time expenditure About my big Backyard I overhear all the times I did water yesterday I am not going to cut the grass the weeds, the Hedges and so on Nobody happy to do that so my son volunteers Not looking happy at all then I start thinking, was the Big Backyard a good idea, not any more But I am out of it, it is none of  my business I enjoy my walk,  the Nature, breathing the air  scented with flowers and freshly cut grass Birds busy making Nests chirp

It was an amazing long  weekend  in Toronto with 22 C My son was planning to go to Niagara Falls But when kids get older interests not the same All of his three sons were not interested so he had no choice and went for Bike Ride He is an outdoor guy I always get fascinated by Falls view The crystal clear water looking milky and blue, changing colors Sun rays make it golden  the rhythm of water All the water gushing down to fill the Bowl  still not enough I was looking forward for all this now on my computer trying to keep myself feel happy and  counting Hits on my Daily Blogs After a while I had shower and all dressed up to get out of my four walls To roll on streets lining with trees all green with beautiful white ,   pink  and  purple flowers even weeds were looking  scenic  all yellow on the green grass by the stony concrete  walkways It was 1.30 pm  I was feeling good in the breeze with perfect warmth of sun  not too hot walked from my pla

Being human is a  guest house every morning  a new arrival A joy, a depression a meanness some momentary awareness knocks our door, they have to come in we can not stop any of these arrivals Some of them are wanted but most of them unwanted we have no choice so welcome and entertain them all treat each like a guest Meet them at the door  laughing and invite them in with Grace  be grateful for whoever comes because each one has been sent from Beyond Try to recognize the power of emotions don't be afraid struggle is where our courage is tested courage is contagious be brave and try to rise after a fall If you want to be brave you have to choose courage  ignore the signal " What people think " Stop caring about that Creativity is when we are learning from our heads to our hearts through our hands

Universe is our tutor our life is our class everything that happens is part of our custom crafted curriculum  we can ignore our assignments and take  the s ame class as many times as we choose We have been a student in the Earth school since we were born we can not change  anything in this school like our parents, boss employees, or classmates we have to change ourselves that is our task as a student our most painful emotions show you what you are most resistant to changing They are the ones that occur most often as you have failed to do your homework and we refuse to take it  seriously It is our fault that if we ignore , it will go away It will not it will ruin our life look inside yourself and tackle the very painful emotion giving you all the trouble like depression, jealousy, rage etc Begin the experiment  with the idea that you not the other people are the cause of your emotions the pain is not a problem it is ca

Love your  Human family With Joy and appreciation The  longest journey  that you will make in your life is from your head to your heart The journey into the heart is our future and only way of Creating future It is movement toward Wholeness, integrity and Compassion Learning  to experience emotions is one of the most difficult task When there are  stomach problems it usually means we don't know how to assimilate the new experience we are afraid Stomach  digest all the new ideas and experiences we have Our  body is a river constantly changing flowing patterns  of intelligence " You can not step the same river twice for fresh waters are ever flowing in. " The  same  is true of the  body We appear to be the same outwardly , yet we are like a building  whose bricks  are constantly being replaced by new ones Our  body knows  what is good and bad for it We have to  obey our body an extremely small imbalance  in our

As we get older, we need  to realize that We have a choice about how we're going to respond to the messages from other people Remember that " no one can make you feel inferior without your consent." It would follow, then, that no one can make you feel   " anything "  without your consent It is what we believe About ourselves that counts Whether we were treated Rightly or wrongly as children Our self esteem is now   our responsibility We can't feel good if our heads are full of negative thoughts If we 're treating others with respect Being honest and achieving something With our lives then we need to give ourselves credit It's healthy to develop  a good attitude about ourselves we have to remember   attitude is a choice ---- the most important one  you'll ever make Self esteem is the reputation You have with yourself The body needs nutrition and exercise  ----  so do , the mind

Throat is energy center It is the place where change takes place when we cough we are reacting to the change cough is showing our resistance and stubbornness or is it the process of change taking place in the workshop Most of the time we fear not being good enough for our parents not being good enough for a boss We rip our guts apart trying to please others No matter how important  our job is our self esteem is very low we are afraid they will find  about us fear and anger are two great  factors which contribute to dis -- ease Anger can show up as impatience, irritation frustration, jealousy, bitterness  and so on these thoughts poison our body when we release this burden all the organs in our body begin to function properly Fear could be tension, anxiety nervousness, worry insecurity etc we must learn to substitute  faith for fear if we are to heal Faith in life  believe to live in a " Yes " universe, no mat

We all have ideas about ourselves That we use as limitations or Resistance to changing Like : We are too old or too young Too fat, too thin Too short, too tall Too lazy, too weak Too poor, too dumb May be it's all too much We also try to use delaying tactics Such as, I 'll do it later I can't think right now I don't have time right now Yes that's a good idea I will do it some other time We know our ways to Not to do things and running away From the situation Just do it Plan your Day Every successful person does it in some form This is the most positive way to invest your time Plan your day a night before or The first thing in the morning Prioritize your things in the list to do You will be amazed how effective and productive it will be Check off each daily goal in the list as you complete it You will get a great sense of Accomplishment It will show your progress record Daily accomplishments are The bui

We have so  much Love In  our heart  enough To shower the whole  Planet But sometimes We need this love just To  heal  ourselves Feel a warmth beginning To  glow  in your heart center A softness, a gentleness Let this feeling begin to  change The way you think And  talk about yourself The more resentment I Release,  the more Love I have to express Changing my thoughts makes Me feel good I am  learning to choose To make today A  pleasure  to experience Try to read everything to Expand  your knowledge Awareness and understanding There is so much knowledge Out there for us Books are only One step on our  pathway Get  other viewpoints Hear other people say it in A  different  way This is a  life work The more we learn The more we know The more we  practice  and apply The better we feel And the more  wonderful Our life will be Doing this work makes You feel good We often  assume things  about Others  to  justify ourselves Like :

Life is really  very simple What we give out we get back What we think about ourselves Becomes the truth  for us We are  responsible  for Everything in our lives The best and the worst Every thought we think is Creating our future Remember A moment of  patience  in a  moment  of anger  prevents A thousand moments of regrets Always put your  brain in gear before you open your  mouth Always try to lead a gentle life Who sows courtesy reaps friendship He, who plants kindness gathers love In the  evening just think about What have I given today In what way I have been a giver Did I make some promises And  commitments To  myself  and will keep it What did I learn today How has today added to the Quality of my life How can I make use of My today Is today was an Investment to my future forgiveness of ourselves and Of others, releases us from The Past When we are stuck It usually means there is some More forgiving to be done Wh

Plant the seed of new Affirmation The whole new experience is in this tiny seed Your mind will   act like soil We have to water it with affirmations And let the sunshine of Positive thoughts Beam on it You also have to weed the garden by Pulling out the Negative thoughts That come up And when you first see The tiniest little evidence  You don't stomp on it And say, " That's not enough " Instead, you look at this First breakthrough and Exclaim with glee " Oh boy ! Here it comes !         It's working ! " Then you watch it grow And become your Desire in manifestation Love  who and what  You are And what you do You will be surprised and delighted When after a  few months of doing Mental work You will begin to  look younger To begin with it sounds Overwhelming but after a  short period  of time Your new way of thinking Will become as a Part of your life You will do it automatically Like taking sh

In this century due to all it's technological Wonders The three dimensions of Life somehow become a blur It's exciting to get all the information Acquire things due to the high - tech world We now live in While, that 's fantastic There is a downside The more we get caught up in the Incredibly fast pace and Conveniences of modern life The less we take time to think It's easier to let our electronic Devices do it for us and Eventually, we end up wondering how to Make sense out of life It is our Motivation which we always need to move on Real motivation comes within no matter who you are or What your age may be In case you have enough desire to attain it you have a   real belief to accomplish it you have a clear mental picture Of yourself achieving it you will achieve a permanent sustaining success Motivation starts with a sense of desire When you want something You become motivated to get it Desire is the

Try to manage your time It is easy to say but difficult to apply as it involves changing habits Plan your Day A successful life is nothing more than A string of successful days There use to be other plans like Business plan, game plan,  building plan, lesson plan  --- and so on So why not a day plan It doesn't take much time but it works Some call it " things to do " list It is like daily goal setting Problems call for our courage And our wisdom The process of confronting  and solving problems is a Painful one It makes life difficult but We have to keep in mind that It is only because of problems We grow mentally and spiritually Problems are cutting edge that distinguishes between success and failure When we desire to encourage the growth of our spirit We challenge and encourage our capacity to solve problems Just like in our school days It is through the pain of  confronting and Resolving problems that we learn "

When you get a Headache Stop and ask yourself where and how you have just made yourself wrong Forgive yourself let it go and the Headache will dissolve Migraine headaches are created by by people who want to be perfect and who create a lot of pressure on themselves Sinus problems felt right in the face and close to the nose represent being irritated by someone in Your life, someone who is close to you We forget that we create the situations, then we give our power away by blaming the other person for our frustration No person, no place and no thing has any power over us for " We " are the only thinkers in our mind We create our experiences our reality and every -- one in it When we create peace  harmony and balance in our mind, we will find the same in our life The Neck represents the ability to be flexible  in our thinking, to see the other side of a question and to see another person's point of view When the

Your mind is not running The show It is just a tool You can use it in any way you wish We have the power to quiet The chatter of our mind Any moment The thoughts we " choose " to think Create the experiences we have Whatever our thoughts are Our mind will make that true for us There is an incredible Power and intelligence Within you that is Constantly responding To your thoughts and words As we learn to  control our mind by The conscious choice of Thoughts We align ourselves with This power Do not think that your mind is in control We are in control Of our mind We use our mind As a tool Take mental control The only thing you ever  have any control of Is your current thought Avoid such tactics as There is nothing wrong  with me If I ignore The problem will go away I can't do any thing About this problem The biggest category of Resistance is fear --- ----   Fear of the unknown I'm not ready yet, I might

Don't let the past hold you back Don't spoil your Today Because of something That happened in your Past Like, because I am no longer married I can not live a full life Today Because I was hurt by a remark once I will never trust anyone again Because of some of our very Old experience Where we were treated badly We never forgive and forget What we often refuse to Realize is that holding on To the Past  ---   no matter What it was or how awful It was  ---  is only hurting us We can not turn the page Done is done so Move on Ring out the Old and Ring in the New  When we start  our day With a Groan " Oh God, another day " And that is exactly The sort of the day We would have One thing  after another will go wrong It is important How do you begin your day Start your day with Positive affirmations and With  gratitude  for the Things in your life Make a list  for that And be thankful Our  first thoughts On

I believe we create Every so -- called illness  In your body Our body like everything Else in our life is a mirror Of our inner thoughts and beliefs Our body is always talking t o us We have to take time to listen Every cell within our body Responds to every single thought  We think and every Word we speak Continuous Modes of thinking And speaking Produce our body behavior And postures and Eases or Dis -- eases Older people's faces and Bodies show so clearly A lifetime of Thinking Patterns The Head represents us It is what we show the world It is how we are usually recognized When something is wrong In the Head area It usually means that we feel Something is very wrong With " Us " The Hair represents  The strength When we are tense and Afraid we often create Those Bands of steel that Originate in the shoulder Muscles And come up over The Top of our Head and Sometimes even down Around the Eyes Please
