from the mcbride song, for some reason it just spoke to me:

Roll the stone away
Let the guilty pay
It's independence day

It is better to make use of a chance to change than to try and change your chances.

Take care. The subconscious is just as likely to form a bad habit as a good one. If you tend to dwell on the frustrations, worries and negativity in life - then these are the thought habits you will create. But, if you choose to focus on the good and on the positive side of things then that will become your natural nature.

p.s in case you were wondering no thought for the day yesterday, it was a holiday here in the UK.

[color:"teal"]Wisdom[/color]
The essence of wisdom is using what we know and confessing to what we do not know.

[color:"purple"]Great Influence[/color]
Anything you keep within yourself will automatically reveal itself. Therefore, make sure your character is always full of attainments. These will be revealed through your eyes, your words and your behaviour and you will be capable of having great influence on others.

“What I experience now is a result of the past; what I experience in the future depends on what I do now.”

Respect is never making anyone's shortcomings a target for laughter.

Sorry for not posting the last 3 days, been out sick but all better now.

[color:"Teal"]Pure Peace[/color]
Why do we find it hard to be at peace with ourselves, each other and the world? Imagine a lake that is flat and calm and pure - it is so clear you can see the bottom. Even when the wind blows it only ruffles the surface. All is still and peaceful in its depth. Then the first polluting chemicals of the new factory and farm come rolling down the hill and into the water. Immediately it starts to cloud over and bubble a little. Chemical reactions are taking place and the purity is lost. When purity is lost peace is lost. It is the same with human consciousness. We are innately peaceful beings. Peace is our deepest inner state of being, our true nature. To be at peace is to be in our natural state, but only when our consciousness is pure and clean and true. As soon as the pollutants of any negative images are allowed in, or we allow old memories and experiences to disturb us into negative thinking, our purity and therefore our inner peace are gone. It's not the external event or person that takes our peace away - it's because we give them permission to enter and give them life in our minds. Keep your mind and heart free of all pollution, and peace will always be with you.

Inner Peace
Often, from a grain of sand a mountain emerges. If you want to protect your inner peace transform the mountain into a grain of sand.
************************************************************

************************************************************
Your world is a garden from which you remove weeds of doubt and replace them with seeds of hope.
************************************************************

************************************************************
[color:"pink"]Faith[/color]
The faith that can move mountains needs three ingredients to work: belief in yourself, belief in others, and the ability to draw on your inner strength.

Adjusting
The one who can adjust to any situation with humility possesses true greatness.

Peace
Let peace become your personality.

************************************************************
Watch every game as a detached observer and you will remain safe and also enjoy yourself.

Role Play
Shakespeare was absolutely right - all the world's a stage and you are on it! It means we all have many roles to play. That means never identify with your role, or you will get very stuck and very stressed. You are not what you do. Your job, position, vocation are just roles. Play the role, never think you are the role - this is the art of making life creative and fun. All great actors dislike being typecast and seen to be good for one particular type of character or role. There is no role you cannot play, if you really want to play it. Which is the same as saying there is nothing you cannot do, if you really want to do it, nothing you cannot be, if you really want to be it. You can even be a Queen or King. You may not have a throne or a court of advisors, but you can create and express all the qualities and behaviours of a 'royal' character - dignity, respect, humility, caring...and many more. Be a 'royal', sit on your inner throne with dignity and self respect, and you will see many other royal qualities emerge through your character. And then...you will feel royal.

[color:"Red"]Unconditionally Accept[/color]
We all find occasion to reject and resist another person. We all like to put up a fight against anything we dislike on the evening news as we spectate the world. But we forget that when we decide we will resist something or somebody, either mentally or physically, we only empower the object of our resistance, either in reality or in our own minds. If you want to enjoy the ability to influence, always start with acceptance. If you want to disarm another begin with acceptance. If you want to encourage and empower another to change, start with acceptance. Don't make it conditional. Otherwise it's just resistance disguised as acceptance, and you are still trying to control them. And we can all smell a controller...can't you?

[color:"green"]Plant seeds[/color]
Ignorance makes you believe that life functions haphazardly. Wisdom teaches you that everything that happens in this theatre of life has profound significance. What you see today is not the fruit of chance but a fruit from seeds planted in the past. Plant seeds of peace now and you will create a life of peace in the future.

Simplicity
There is great beauty in simplicity. That which is simple is close to Truth.
