Quotes
 

1) I am proud to be Native. 2) Respect all things that were placed upon this earth- whether it be people or a plant. 3) Honor other peoples thoughts, wishes and words. 4) Search for yourself, by yourself. Do not allow others to make your path for you. It is your road, and yours alone. Others may walk it with you, but no one can walk it for you.

ABUNDANCE IS MY INHERITANCE

Abundance is mine. I cannot be deprived of my supply. The trees do not lack for leaves, nor do the flowers fail to bloom. Am I not as important as they? “Consider the lilies of the field, they toil not neither do they spin, yet . . . Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed as one of these.”

I look at the lavish wastefulness of Nature and know that god intended me to be as abundantly supplied, with everything that makes for beauty, well-being, progressive living and happiness. I, myself, am to blame when these "fruits of the Spirit" fail to appear.

Since I know the Truth of my being, I will no longer hinder or retard my good from coming to me. I will expect and accept all that I need to make life happy and worth while; for I am a child of the Spirit, and every attribute of It--every attribute of Good--is my inheritance.

Nothing but lack of faith can keep my good from me, for I am one with the Universal Essence of Life, or Spirit, and Its Substance will manifest in my experience as I believe. No longer will I go for my good, carrying only a dipper to be filled. This day, as I turn to the Mother/Father within, I bring "all the empty vessels" knowing they will be filled, and my abundance will become manifest.

Abundance is My Inheritance.

“What is morally wrong can never be advantageous, even when it enables you to make some gain that you believe to be to your advantage. The mere act of believing that some wrongful course of action constitutes an advantage is pernicious.” ― Marcus Tullius Cicero

Funny Quotes 1) You grow up the day you have your first real laugh-at yourself. 2) I am ready to meet the Creator. Whether the Creator is prepared for the ordeal of meeting me is another matter. 3) By persistantly remaining single a woman converts herself into a permanate public temptation. (lol)

Haunted by what remains...this city, these places the walls scream her name
6.5 years of a life built for two disappears in a breathe of love forgotten through distance between us.
Intimacy gone - I guess that happens when you're thousands of miles away from each other
You had to work I get it, but what was left behind was the story of US
knowing it is for the best and meant to be - avails me nothing when my heart cries out for you-is it you? Or the idea of you?
Picking up the pieces, moving on, stumbling...
Days go by silent with progress, then in the quiet the memory sneaks in and rips out my breath. The tears then flow with a deep ache from my gut, I CRY OUT "MAKE IT GO AWAY, someone, please..."
I crawl up onto the floor with my dog-I long the warmth of contact I long to be held to be heard, comforted.
50 days gone by 50 days with ME.

"I would rather have an inferiority complex and be pleasantly surprised, than have a superiority complex and be rudely awakened."

"You have to leave the city of your comfort and go into the wilderness of your intuition. What you'll discover will be wonderful. What you'll discover is yourself."
Alan Alda~

Hang in there! It's a rough road sometimes but remember to let the little whispers fill your heart up when things get dark. You choose the path and I know you will find that comfort and intimacy again. We all stumble but we will heal as we replace the pieces that have fallen with something deeper of ourselves.

It's kind of funny...the moments on which life hinges. I think growing up you always imagine your life--your success--depends on your family and how much money they have, where you go to college, what sort of job you can pin down, starting salary...But it doesn't, you know. You wouldn't believe this, but life hinges on a couple of seconds you never see coming. And what you decide in those few seconds determines everything from then on...

Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. --Martin Luther King, Jr.

"If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward." Martin Luther King Jr.
