Healing Spirit

Food for Thought from Collin McCarty:
 
                                Begin Again
 
One of the best things we can do in our lives is this:
                        Begin again.
 
Begin to see yourself as you were when you were the
        happiest and strongest you’ve ever been.
 
      Begin to remember what worked for you (and what worked
        against you), and try to capture the magic again.
 
        Begin to remember how natural it was when you were 
                     a child – to live a lifetime each day.
 
        Begin to forget the baggage you have carried with you for
         years: the problems that don’t matter anymore, the tears that
         cried themselves away, and the worries that are going to wash
                  away on the shore of tomorrow’s new beginning.
 
        Tomorrow tells us it will be here every new day of our lives;
          and if we will be wise, we will turn away from the problems of
            the past and give the future – and ourselves – a chance
                        to become the best of friends.
 
        Sometimes all it takes is a wish in the heart to let yourself…
                                  Begin Again.

Little Solutions

A beautiful anonymous poem I read........ Focus on what is there and not what "should" be (Hmmmmmm). We all want to be valued and regarded.  
Little Resolutions
"A little less impatient with those we deem too slow;
A little less arrogant because of all we know;
A little less conceited since our worth is slight;
A little less intolerant even when we are right;

A little more forgiving and swifter to be kind;
A little more desirous of the word praise to find;
A little more eager to help others to rejoice;
A little more careful to speak with gentle voice;

A little more effort to see another's view;
A little more willingness to extend to helping hand;
A little more committment to our people and our land;

A little more eagerness to listen and understand;
A little more resole to do what must be done;
And a greater understanding that truly we are one."

Intuition

Guidance through our intuition. Everyone has intuition.  It is intuition that allows you to know that somehow you have a power source within. At times in our lives, we've all been aware of a "gut feeling" guiding our decisions. It is intuition that brings it. I am grateful when I pay attention.
