Quote of the Day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ Try again, why would you stop? : ) 01/31/2012

How long should you try? Until.

: o )  Jim Rohn

Until, love that quote.  Why would you stop though, you moved forward, you planned to win, you push on until.

I know you have it in you.  Keep working towards your dream, your goal and keep working your plan.

Don't quit, don't ever give up. Why would you stop when your so close.

A quote:

Success seems to be largely a matter of hanging on after others have let go.

: o )  William Feather

Don't let go to your dreams.  Hang on to them, color them with vivid colors in your mind, have the sound of victory crisp and clear in your head.  Don't let go, don't ever let go of your dreams.

Difficult things take a long time, impossible things a little longer.

: o )  Author Unknown

Either way success and anything worthwhile takes time.  Don't give up or give in just keep your eyes fixed on your plan, your values and your goals.  Don't give up or ever, ever, give in.

Smiles to you this day and everyday.

Quote of the Day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ Being competitive with the only one that matters : ) 01/31/2012

Our business in life is not to get ahead of others, but

to get ahead of ourselves -- to break our own records, to

outstrip our yesterday by our today.

: o ) Stewart B. Johnson

They have been called many things energy vampires, chiggers, (those little bugs that dig under your skin), and other things that are not G or PG rated.  So lets move on from them, shall we? LOL : )

But in the end they are really nothing, we give them power to enter our perception field.  Don't we though?  We give them power to disrupt our wave lengths of happiness and joy.

  We give them power to disrupt our imagination and wonder and awe.

Yes we do.....so why do we do it?

It is easier to blame them for our misfortune.  Maybe.

It is human nature to complain instead of ignore. Maybe again.

It is more human to tear down another instead of build them up.

Lets hope not for our own sake.

No I think its pure ignorance on our part to pay attention to ourselves and understand that they are truly nothing unless we give them that attention and power to disrupt us.

It happens to the best of us.  But we can change that can't we?

YES WE CAN and YES WE MUST : )

If we are to proceed down our pathway of love, joy, laughter and happiness we can't let another downer or demon get in our way.

Some food for thought and as always smiles to all of you : )

Quotes of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ Acknowledgement of .... : ) 01/29/12

There are no limitations to the mind except

those we acknowledge.

: O ) Napoleon Hill

Not one limitation except those that we believe to be true.  Believe in yourself, even when others don't. Trust in your gut even when you want to doubt it.  Have faith in what got you here to this point.

Trust in your creator, in your values, in your beliefs.

Live your life with love for self first, if you love yourself less than you love others then your missing out on so much and in reality so are those that you love.

Dream with the possibility that these dreams are already coming true.

For in reality with action and belief and faith they already are becoming part of your reality.

Trust in that and acknowledge that : )

Quotes of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ Next Day Delivery : ) 01/27/12

“Someone was hurt before you, wronged before you,

hungry before you, frightened before you, beaten before you,

humiliated before you, raped before you… yet, someone survived…

You can do anything you choose to do.”

: o ) Maya Angelou

Somehow we have learned falsely that change takes time.  We have been trained that life is a cycle that repeats and it is what it is.

I think it is what it is until isn't anymore.  That isn't anymore can change in a second, quicker than you can read this post you can change your mind, change your plans, change how you react to life and all its many challenges.

We get mail from across the world by next day air.  A simple act of change can happen just as quick and in fact quicker.

You just need to decide. Decide and choose to change your attitude, your mood, your acceptance and your tolerance. It can change now, right now if you choose it to be so.

So my questions for you to ponder on this weekend and only you can answer this for you?

What are you waiting for?  What do you want to change?

May you give these two questions serious thought and may the wind of inspiration blow you into the right direction of action.

Smiles to you this day and everyday : )

Quotes of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ The Purpose of Us All : ) 01/26/12

I think the purpose of life is to be useful, to be

responsible, to be honorable, to be compassionate.

It is, after all, to matter: to count, to stand for something, to have

made some difference that you lived at all.

:  o ) Leo C. Rosten

*******************************

The purpose of life is not to fight against evil and misfortune;

it is to unveil magnificence.

: o ) Alan Cohen

Today two quotes, how lucky can you get : ) Smiles sent.

What is our purpose in life.  Not yours and mine in particular I mean all of us in particular, the man and woman purpose in life.

I love the idea of unveiling magnificence.

What a concept.  Love it.

So it got me to ponder about all that I share with you the reader, the purpose that I share words to inspire, to enlighten to entertain and educate.

I like not love this interaction and sharing that takes place.  I hope you enjoy it just as much as I do.

Starting 2/01/12 I will be posting during the day the Smiles and Inspiration 2012.  I have prayed about this and listened to my inner spirit and it says to give it and share it with all.  So that is what I choose to do come 2/01/12.

To those who got it via email I will continue to do that until you say thats ok.

But I thank you 33 who wanted it and received it freely and I hope you respect and like my decision to share it with all.  Who am I to keep it for only 33 and so it will be shared 2/01.

So my smiles to you all and love shared as well : )

Quote of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ The Power of Laughter : ) 01/25/12

“The human race has one really effective weapon,

and that is laughter.”

: o ) Mark Twain

Do you really understand the power of laughter?  Mr. Twain was right we all have this weapon in our heart, ready to pounce and strike away pain, anger, and even sadness.

The power of laughter.  Have you laughed today?  Will you laugh for me tomorrow.  Promise me here and now, that tomorrow you will share some laughter with you and another.  You can do it.

Learn to harness this awesome power!

Laughter can turn apathy into concern.

Laughter can turn a room that is gloomy into a bright and cheerful place.

Laughter a weapon and a cure for the common blues.

Share in some laughter today, you know the kind that makes you cry.

Smiles to you this day and may your day, week  and month come to an understanding that laughter can make your life brighter and easier.

Quote of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ State of your Union : ) 01/24/12

“The state of your life is nothing more than a

reflection of your state of mind.”

: o ) Wayne Dyer

The state of your union.  The union between your desire and your action that you take to make things the way you want.

The union between what your values are and how you live them yourself.

The union between what you say each morning to yourself and the results that you get by the end of the day.

Oh the things we do and expect different results to materialize.

It is to laugh that what we want and get is often not what effort we put out to get there.

Why is that?

Many people think that we do things out of pleasure and the desire to have more or pain and the desire to avoid it.

I buy that for some part.  But often people can look at their life and understand that we can decide to make our union more perfect in a second, a minute, a day or a week but we have to understand that we choose.  Period.

So the question of the moment. What is the state of your union?

Smiles and prayers and positive thoughts sent your way.

Quote of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ What eats you? : ) 01/23/12

Holding anger is a poison. It eats you from the inside. We think that hating is a weapon that attacks the person who harmed us. But hatred is a curved blade. And the harm we do, we do to ourselves.

Forgive, Edward. Forgive...no one is born with anger. And when we die, the soul is freed of it. But now, here, in order to move on, you must understand why you felt what you did, and why you no longer need to feel it.'

She touched his hand.

'You need to forgive your father.'

: o ) Mitch Albom,

The Five People You Meet in Heaven

pages 141-142



Great book and movie of the same title. How true this dialogue. Hate has more of a curved blade than we think. Often when we do hate another person they don't know it, and if they do know it they don't even care.

What a waste of emotion. What a serious misfortune that so many make. To allow hatred to eat away at your spirit. To let hate waste so much love, so much creative energy. For what and for who? So sad.

My friends think about yourself before you hate another person.

Take time to really think about your wasted seconds, minutes and hours that you waste when you throw out hate into the world. Your world is indeed wasted.

Stop and let go and move on ..... Move forward and let the hate slip away like the wind blows away the leaves, or the clouds go drifting by the wind from above.

Some smiles for you and may your week be special : )

Quote of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ Time to Move On : ) 01/22/12

Move on. It is just a chapter in the past,

but don't close the book

- just turn the page.



: o ) Author Unknown



Is there something in your life that still grips you. Tightens the muscles in your heart or in your jaw? Maybe it is just time to move on and let it go.

Oh you can hold on to it, sure you can, but let me ask you a question. Just one simple question....

Why do you want to hold on to it

What good does it bring your way. It makes you feel good or does it make you feel bad holding on to it.

Seriously if any of it makes you feel bad what worth is the good that you feel from it.

Life happens and we are in control of our actions our thoughts and truly if we hold onto something to long that hurts us, angers us or just makes us feel bad, LET IT GO, MOVE ON.

Just think of the burden you carry to make you feel the stress over that past history that you internalize.

Sure some of us drink the pain away, eat the pain away, do that harmless drug that makes us feel like it is gone but guess what and you already know this. Those things that we do to our bodies to make the stuff seem hidden have some major consequences.

Stop, think, meditate and pray and move on from that which needs not stay with you.

Let it go, move on and stretch into a better moment and better memories. Move on and smile as you go : )

Quote of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ On Acceptance : ) 01/21/12

 

One has to accept pain as a condition of existence.

One has to court doubt and darkness as the cost of knowing.

One needs a will stubborn in conflict, but apt always to the

total acceptance of every consequence of living and dying.

 

: o ) Morris West

Life is simple, it really is once you understand the dynamics of the choices we make.  The truth is we have trouble making choices that fit into that simplicity.

We think that there is a better way, we alter the path of success that others have gone before because we want to do it 'Our Way'.  Not the way of ancient tales, or even of our parents who are not so ancient.  We want to blaze our own trail but yet complain about the results that we produce and have trouble accepting the consequences of doing it 'Our Way'.

It is too laugh sometimes. LOL.

But in fact we learn to readjust and ponder over the decisions made, reflect, adjust, pray and meditate and correct our misfortunes.  We also need to take the time to speak the gratitude that we still have that opportunity to adjust and that the pain of misfortune is not permanent.

So yes the choice is always ours.

We can make the difference even in our own lives with a smile, some laughter even if the laughter is at ourselves.

That truly may be the best laughter.

Smiles to you this day : )

Quote of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ Shaking it off : ) 01/19/12

“Awake, my soul, and with the sun / Thy daily stage of duty run;

/ Shake off dull sloth, and joyful rise, /

To pay thy morning sacrifice.”

: o ) Thomas Ken

Yes indeed, I could not post yesterday here, had a family matter to take care of and it happens right.

Trips to the hospital ER with my daughter, turns out everything is ok but you have to be careful, just leave it at that.  But if you can keep us in your prayers.  Life is never easy but there are many times when you just have to shake it off.

Oh wow, the theme of this post.

Shake it off!  Three words to practice today and everyday. You will have a wave or a wind come up on you and it just may slow you down. However if you truly can shake it off and move forward with care and patience.  Things will work out for the best.

What is the alternative to Shaking it off?

Dwelling in it?  Paying more attention to the pain instead of the promise.  Shake it off!

Time continues on, you can't replay the old moment, shake it off and move on to the next.

Smiles and prayers sent to you this day. : )

Quote of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ On Taking Action : ) 01/17/12

“It is not the critic who counts;

not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles,

or where the doer of deeds could have done them better.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,

whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who

strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again;

because there is not effort without error and shortcomings;

but who does actually strive to do the deed; who knows the

great enthusiasm, the great devotion, who spends himself in a

worthy cause, who at the best knows in the end the triumph

of high achievement and who at the worst, if he fails, at least

he fails while daring greatly. So that his place shall never be

with those cold and timid souls who

know neither victory nor defeat.”

: o ) Theodore Roosevelt

That is a long quote huh?   But how true.  We will stumble and come up short at times.  Not all the time mind you but life is a series of waves.  Sometimes your riding the wave other times the wave is crashing on in.  Why is that?

Well for one thing the world is full of cause and effect.  What we put out will always have an effect.  Just like what we don't put out will have an effect or counter effect if we should have done something.  Did you catch that?

Listen to your spirit, if you feel like your supposed to do something and you ignore it well you will have an effect.  The cause was the lack of taking action.

Take time to listen to your energy.  Take time to respond to your calls to action. If it does not work, it does not mean just give up it means rework the plan and find another way.

Smiles to you this day!
