Tuesday Taking Over Our Uncertainty

Uncertainty will cause us to pause, to stop and to even withdraw from an intended mission. We must believe and focus on what we want and follow through.

Feeling your way through life

letting your intuition guide you

not ceasing your progress

but guiding

Keep growing through adversity

never stop

never stop your growth and learning

open your heart and intuition to listening and feeling your way

give up the fear and listen

Truth will be insightful

but never should truth be ignored

The path to happiness is always filled with certainty

The path to happiness is always lined with smiles

As this smile is sent to you : )

Saturday in Your Park of Hope

So what is hope? Have you had hope? Has your hope been dashed? How do you look for hope?

My favorite quote I start with here:

Hope what would a life be with out hope?

This world needs hope

We all need that ocean of possibility

we all have been created for victory

Be strong

laugh out loud

live and play hard

dream big

and be happy

All by having hope

When the world, your world shouts no

listen

be still and listen

be quiet, be still and listen

shhhhhhh

right now, just listen to that still quiet voice that says

MAYBE

Just maybe

This smile and all of them every day are sent your way : )

Monday Motivation and Silence and Wisdom

Have you ever tried to practice silence as part of your motivation? If you have not then maybe today it is time to practice and be still.

I have shared this before but maybe repetition never hurt anyone : )

Use the moment today to be still

to be silent

to think with power but be silent at the same time

Be still

Be quiet

and listen to your still voice

Allow the quiet to feed your spirit

Imagine that

true wisdom

Be still

Be quiet

Choose the words carefully

Before you disrupt your silence

Wise words

Be the living expression

Indeed

I now leave a smile here for you : )

Thursday Tune UP of Trust

Trust a five letter word that means so much in business, in relationships, in our government. When trust exists growth and progress will prosper. When there is no trust nothing but resentment and frustration will come forth.

Love will fail without trust

Family will become bitter without trust

Trust starts with ourselves being honest with our words and actions and with what we put forth. Trust with others is earned but start with self. Many will follow by the example you put forth.

It starts with self and what you put forth

Words and actions

Trust is earned

It starts with self and what you put forth

Words and actions

Trust is earned

It starts with self and it starts with you

Love all

do wrong to none

Words to grow by and teach our children

Give * Love * Trust * Listen

It starts with self

Smiles sent your way today : )

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!

Video of the day

Never Stop Taking Action

Scripture of the day

James 2:18

(ESV)

18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

Quote of the day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ Learning how to listen to our heart : ) 01/16/12

One day some people came to the master

and asked: How can you be happy

in a world of such impermanence,

where you cannot protect your loved ones

from harm, illness or death?

The master held up a glass and said:

Someone gave me this glass;

It holds my water admirably

and it glistens in the sunlight.

I touch it and it rings!

One day the wind

may blow it off the shelf,

or my elbow

may knock it from the table.

I know this glass is already broken,

so I enjoy it -- incredibly.

Achaan Chah Subato

To walk about the earth with happiness, to know that life happens but to enjoy this moment. This moment right now, to worry about the next or to worry about the past. Live and enjoy in this moment, right now.

What a concept huh? It can happen. Don't worry about the future, if you can say you life to help, to make a difference, to share love, to share a kind word or deed. Then how much grief are you in that very moment.

Life happens with out a doubt if your not in some form of failure or set back one is coming. But it is not the set back that matters or hurts us it is always the way we respond to that set back.

How do you listen to the energy that surrounds you?

What time to you give to listen in silence and truly understand your motive and intentions.

When do you start or will you start to listen and care about this moment and listen with focused intent to what values and intentions you truly want to fulfill.

As always smiles sent your way... : )

Letting go and using two hands to keep a grip on the gift and embracing the good

We postpone the finality of heartbreak by clinging to hope.

Though this might be acceptable during early or

transitional stages of grief, ultimately it is no way to live.

We need both hands free to embrace life and accept love, and

that's impossible if one hand has a death grip on the past.

~KRISTIN ARMSTRONG,

O Magazine,

Feb. 2007

It's hard letting go. It could be a death of a loved on, a death of a relationship or just letting go of a job because of the economy. It is painful no doubt about and above all you have to go through the pain, you need to transition to a higher plane to be able to move forward.

Not saying you should not remember the good and the great of the things you passed. You need to remember the good and the great of that person, or job.

But when we grip to tight on the past, ultimately we have less control of our present and the future. We can not get a firm grip of the present with one hand still holding onto the past.

Remember the past, you bet.

Let the past effect your future relationships, your future trust factor's.

No that is not the way we should live.

Today is a gift. The 86,400 seconds we get everyday we can't stop.

They move on. They are not in our control. They are a resource that is a gift and we need to search for the joy and happiness in each moment.

We need to look up and forward and take time to enjoy 'the moment'.

It is hard, to focus on the now when the past is to fresh in our heart. Our spirit aches but after 48 trips around the sun I have learned through those years that we are in control, of our thoughts, our emotions and our reactions.

Live your life with love in it. With laughter and joy. Share your smile first with you in that mirror and use your affirmations that I shared with you yesterday or you created for yourself and march on into your day.

The seconds in your life tick on. Tick, tick, tick ---- three more seconds fall away but as long as you understand the importance of each second and the importance of living your life for the good of the cause.

The cause you ask --- to be happy of course. To serve another. To love and be loved and to make a difference to another.

Smile on my friend let those burdens be carried away by God.

Let those tears wash away the pain and give gratitude not for what you lost, but for what you got to share in.

Those things, those bright colored memories, let them shine over the dark.

Let them help to brighten your day, lighten your load and let your light shine on for another. For one day your light will dim and it will go out but the memories you left behind will keep someone else's day a bit brighter for them.

Shine on!

Smiles for you this day : )

Love and laughter sent your way ............

Affirmations and the Subconscious Mind

You will be a failure, until you impress the

subconscious with the conviction you are a success.

This is done by making an affirmation which "clicks."

~Florence Scovel Shinn

The power of the subconscious mind, it does so much for our actions and beliefs that are 'behind the scenes' of our actual knowledge.

Affirmations can prove to be your best friend for the subconscious mind.

I will share a few at the end, I use them and I feel them play into my life. That is my personal testimony on the power of the affirmations.

Everything happens for a reason. Cause and effect. Actions made and reactions played. There is no pause button in life when we hit play the world records our actions and the energy that we cause to flow both positive and negative will flow back to us.

"The world is a great mirror. It reflects back to you what

you are. If you are loving, if you are friendly, if

you are helpful, the world will prove loving and

friendly and helpful to you.

The world is what you are."

~Thomas Dreier

This year has been very good to me and I will continue to praise God for the good in my life and the world that he surrounds me with. The love, the kindness and the blessings that I have received are many and I thank him daily.

I thank him for the gift of my children who even now sit with laughter and a smile as they watch a movie or play a game. I hear that laughter, I see that smile and I rejoice and give thanks to God.

I give thanks to God above for my dogs, Bear and Bella Mia, pictures of these two awesome pets are on my Make ME Smile Online web site and I have great pleasure from seeing them, hearing them greet me and acknowledge their loyalty to the family everyday not just somedays. They are awesome.

I give thanks to you the reader. The comments you send to me and the encouragement you have give me each and every day.

They warm my soul and the love and kindness I truly feel.

Thank You All.

I write with a passion, a passion and a mission to make a difference. To share the knowledge and power of gratitude, the power of a simple smile, and the knowledge of allowing prayer and meditation to flow in your life every day and how it will make a difference.

The game of life is a game of boomerangs.

Our thoughts, deeds and words return to

us sooner or later with astounding accuracy.

~Florence Scovel Shinn

The game of life is playing everyday in your life and in mine.

Play with power, play with passion, play with laughter, play with that sincere smile that can make such a difference in the life of others.

Make a difference, Today!

Affirmation that I trust, and use:

Opportunities and advantages come

with each door that I open.

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

I AM here for a reason and I live my Life

with deliberate purpose.

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

I rejoice in the Love I encounter everyday

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

The two words of wisdom are --- pay attention.

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

Just four affirmations for you to try. Say them 40x each day. Get these, cut them out and hang them where you get ready for your day, the car, the desk at work. Use them, embed them in your subconscious and try this for lets say 30 days.

See what happens to you attitude and beliefs.

Add prayer and spoken gratitude and watch out you just may have a better you. A kinder you, a more successful you, a more loving you, and maybe just a bit more wisdom.

To the last affirmation I think very highly on this one.

Everything happens for a reason, I truly understand and believe that.

Pay attention - Take time and make time to listen - Fuel your subconscious mind with affirmation that will empower your life.

Empower your life to love, to laugh, to experience joy everyday and to become everything you truly want to be.

Dream Big ~ Love Always and know that I send you smiles : )

Today and Everyday!

I send you Smiles. : o )

Saying Hello to the World

Don’t believe what your eyes are telling you.

All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding,

find out what you already know, and you’ll see the way to fly.

~Richard Bach

What do you let your eyes see everyday? What does your perception add to your experience for the day as it unfolds?

Do you see the traffic and start to grind your teeth?

Do you allow your day to pile up on your nerves before it even starts? Getting your muscles in your neck tight and nerves on edge.

We all have allowed this to happen. Let the morning news or talk on the radio wind us up or bring us down and let that limit us to the kind of day we really want.

A day filled with laughter, love, progress, success, joy.

Listened to a song late last night from Lady Antebellum the title

Hello World......

I enclose the video here...the words speak volumes.

The noise we allow to filter through to our heart and the truth that is pushed away. Amazing the words. In the song the little girl in the red rust van with just a simple wave, a simple smile that brings new meaning. Hello World indeed.

We all let the noise of the world make us cold as steal, we all feel broken at times. The worries, the bills, the relationship struggles.

It all adds up.

But with understanding, with faith, with prayer and when we take the time to listen and look at the most important things we will find more joy.

Its there right now.

We will find more laughter.

Its there already. Ready to be accessed.

We will find more success.

The body will function better with less stress. The mind works clearer when we allow those simple things to become real. To fill our heart, to fill our spirit to bring joy.

Surrender and believe!

Hello World.....and your day begins with a smile : )

As always smiles sent to you this day .... : )

About Getting Well and Moving On

With the past, I have nothing to do;

nor with the future. I live now.

~Ralph Waldo Emerson

I must say I love Emerson, he simplifies so well. On Make ME Smile Online's Mission Statement his view on Success as he defines it fits well with my spirit. It keeps me grounded sort of speak and allows me to focus on what truly matters.

What truly matters to me is feeling the awesome responsibility of being a parent. Of loving your children and no matter the fault that they have or the problem they may have created you still love them as you would water or oxygen. That unconditional love that a parent has for their child is greater even than the love of a brother or sister. They are you and you want nothing than the best.

What truly matters to me is helping another breathe a bit easier because you made a difference, you shared a kind word, some advice, a smile, a gentle touch even if your miles apart.

If fact Facebook has that power, last night a picture came aboard and so it is easy to embed right here in this post. Ok so it didn't embed, tried it wouldn't I forgive Gather and its software. LOL

The picture reads:

FORGIVENESS is not something we do for OTHER PEOPLE

We do it for OURSELVES - to GET WELL and MOVE ON.

How very true..... We do it for ourselves. We all know that hate, bitterness, anger can resonate and bounce off walls stronger and harder than those of love, contentment, happiness.

Hey bad news travels faster and so does hate.

But when those walls are the walls of our spirit, our inner self then what destruction they can do for the inner lining of our true spirit and purpose in life.

Stop, forgive, move on and heal.

There is many of us who have pain in our life.

The pain of loss, a death in our family, or circle of friends it is loss and it hurts.

The pain of a separation, a partner who leave us, who wants to throw in the towel, maybe greener grass so they think, maybe just poor relationship skills, maybe just bad habits that keep derailing them and now it effects not just them but you. And me....lol

The pain of being wronged, losing a job in a tough economy, losing money that we need to pay bills, to help our family.

All pain hurts and the sooner we find ourselves. We find our center and we look slowly at our current footing we will feel that pain.

We all need to forgive.

Forgive not for them those who hurt us, but for us who needs to move on. To stop looking back and look at the present footing we stand upon.

God is good! God wants us to succeed. Pain and hatred and suffering is a part of life for sure. But so is forgiveness, love and implementation of a better plan.

We must forgive in order to start the healing process.

We must stand before we can walk.

We must walk before we can run.

We move on, we get better and we start the healing process as soon as we say so.

Say so today.

Say so now.

Forgive and move on!

We are children of God. We are able to overcome anything.

History shows this time and time again, the strong in faith and love and hope will survive anything.

One prayer at a time. One step at a time. This moment in time is yours. Take control of it. Take hold of it. Love always, live for today and Smile. Laugh a little too. But smile, look in that mirror that hangs on that wall... and smile and let that soul, that spirit that looks back at you know that not only can you move on, be happy, smile in the face of pain but you will and that will starts now.

That 'will' starts now.

May God Grant You the Serenity to Accept the Things You Cannot Change... The Courage to Change the Things You Can and the Wisdom to Know the Difference.

May your day be bless and my you start the process of growth and love and joy.

As always smiles sent to you this day .... : )
