Attention

When you truly pay attention and are fully aware, you are never bored and life is never tedious. You are continually immersed in a wondrous universe of limitless proportions, and it is always good to be mindful of that.

Be mindful, and see the possibilities in every moment and in every situation. Be mindful, and take positive, meaningful and beneficial control of every aspect of your life.
...
Instead of living on autopilot, instead of living from your assumptions, live from your best intentions. Instead of letting the illusions get you down, grab the immense positive reality of life and lift yourself higher and higher with it.

Give your complete and loving attention to whatever you’re doing, without judgments or preconceptions. Connect with the astounding beauty and possibility of what is, and discover new joy in every situation.

Don’t waste the power of your magnificent mind by filling it with worry, anger or resentment. Use that awesome power to appreciate life’s special goodness and to make much more of it for yourself and others.

When you think, when you see, when you speak, when you listen, when you act, pay attention. Be fully mindful, and be fully alive.

Happy Canada Day


I prayed for Change, so I changed my mind.
I prayed for Guidance and learned to trust myself.
I prayed for Happiness and realized I am not my ego.
I prayed for Peace and learned to accept others unconditionally.
I prayed for Abundance and realized my doubt kept it out.
... I prayed for Wealth and realized it is my health.
I prayed for a Miracle and realized I AM the Miracle.
I prayed for a Soul mate and realized I am the One.
I prayed for LOVE and realized it’s always knocking, but I have to allow it in...
