Your thoughts become your life. Whatever you think about over and over is likely to come to pass.

So, think about good things.

Abraham Hicks said, “Whatever you’re thinking about is literally like planning a future event. When you’re worrying, you are planning. When you are feeling guilty, regretful, hurt, you are planning.  Always for more of what you are pondering.  When you’re appreciating you are planning…What are you planning?” 

“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things." - Philippians 4:8 (KJV)

"Picture yourself in your minds eye as having already achieved this goal. See yourself doing the things you'll be doing when you've reached your goal.” - Earl Nightingale
​

Today, think on good things.  Run the little video of good things through your mind.
Have a wonderful good day!
Love,

I Am Willing to Change​
Our son Trey offers the inspirational thought for the week:
“I realize that the power to change my world is always within me and within reach.
At all times, I have a choice. I can choose to be trapped in the past, or I can choose to create a future that is instead, like the present.
In all situations, there is an opportunity. I am willing to see past pain to light.  I am willing to seek the hidden gift.
I am willing to release all negative beliefs. They are only thoughts that stand in my way.  My new thoughts are positive and fulfilling.”
- Louise Hay

It’s been said that God only gives you what you can handle.
It’s also been said that this life is a school.
You may be in kindergarten, 
Or, more likely as you read this,
      You are likely in “Master’s or PhD classes” (Hard classes!)
Tony Robbins says it this way, “I've come to believe that all my past failure and frustration were actually laying the foundation for the understandings that have created the new level of living I now enjoy. ”

For most of us, as we live day to day, 
we have so very many dreams for our future.

And then, if serious illness comes to us,
we have only one dream - to get well.

Let’s put everything we can into getting and staying well...
and dream for the future we have with our loved ones.

Love,

No matter what you do, you cannot be who you were a year ago.
And that reminds us to keep moving in the direction of constant and never-ending improvement.
Because we want to be the best different self than we are now.

In the end, not that there really is an end, it's all going to be about how much you loved.  And remember - your love comes back to you many -fold.
Today counts.  Love unceasingly.

​In this time of chaos and unknown, 
This reminds us of
The immense power of our minds
Connecting to our hearts,
Especially in the face of desperation..

"You can’t be angry and grateful at the same time. You can’t be fearful and grateful at the same time. You certainly can’t be jealous and grateful at the same time. The real gift of gratitude is that it eliminates these negative feelings and replaces them with peace and joy."   
- Tony Robbins

One of the J6’s used this for 366 days:
“Every single night while I was in prison, at 9pm, for 366 days I joined these men in singing our great national anthem with pride, gratitude, and determination.” 
⁃    John Strand

Emoto exposed water to words like “'love' or 'gratitude' and the water when frozen formed intricate, stunningly beautiful crystals.  But water exposed to negativity - words like 'hate' or 'desperate' produced chaotic, fractured, ugly formations."  
- Masaru Emoto (see image above)

Peace, love, gratitude for and to you,
