Quote of the Day ~ Video of the Day ~ Scripture of the Day ~ Take time to think before you speak : ) 02/02/2012

“He gossips habitually; he lacks the common wisdom to

keep still that deadly enemy of man, his own tongue”

: o ) Mark Twain

Think before you speak; how often have you heard this gem growing up? Plenty of times I am sure.

Yet time and time again we insert a word or conversation that we regret or at the very least causes more harm than good.

Everything we do and say should have powers to help or heal or at the very least do no harm.

When we reach out with our words we don't know how much hurt they can cause, until its to late.

Words of course can also heal, help and uplift.  The power of the spoken word has positive and not so positive aspects.

So the next time you want to speak and perhaps blurt something out ask your self these questions:

What harm could these words cause another?

Does this statement share gossip or does it share good news?

Will I in any way regret the words I am about to say?

If you can take the time to practice these 3 questions then maybe you can make the time to not cause harm or discomfort.

Just saying and as always sharing and caring and sending you a smile for today : )

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 : )
