Happy Mothers Day
My Mother kept a garden,
a garden of the heart,
She planted all the good things
that gave my life it's start.
She turned me to the sunshine
and encouraged me to dream,
Fostering and nurturing
the seeds of self-esteem. ..
And when the winds and rain came,
she protected me enough--
But not too much because she knew
I'd need to stand up strong and tough.
Her constant good example
always taught me right from wrong--
Markers for my pathway
that will last a lifetime long.
I am my Mother's garden.
I am her legacy-
And I hope today she feels the love
reflected back from me.
Happy Mother's Day...
In Gratitude & Love,

26 Principals Of Life - Part 2
26 Principals Of Life - Part 2
14. Intent is Action: You can intend to do anything,
and your intent is important. However, unless the
intent is followed with action, then the intent is nothing.
As an example. I may intend to get fit, but spend all my
time sat in front of the TV eating pizza and drinking
cola. I have my intention, but my actions do not confirm
or create the intention. Therefore, if you intend something,
do it, don't just talk about it. Action turns knowledge into wisdom.
15. Freedom of Choice: We all have free will, and can choose
to do anything we wish. There is no situation where we do not
have choice. It may appear that we do not, but there are always
options, if we have the courage and strength to take them.
We just have to have the courage of conviction to make the decisions.
16. Change Happens: Change is continuous and is always
happening around us. We can not actually perceive change,
but can see the end result of it. Change is not a bad thing nor
is it to be feared. Through change we can grow and go forwards.
17. Taking Responsibility: Our actions cause a reaction - it
is a law of nature. We have to be aware of our actions and take
responsibility for them and for the consequences of them. It is
no good doing something and then saying you did not mean to
do it. Had you not meant to do it, you would not have done it.
By taking responsibility for our actions, so we can take back our
power and freedom to choose. We have to accept that no one will
live for us, and that sometimes our actions will cause others, or
ourselves, a measure of discomfort. Remember though, that
discomfort is one way of helping us grow and to show us where
changes need to be made.
18. One Step at a Time: To get to any goal, break it down into
a number of small steps. If you have many small successes,
then this will lead to a big success. If you aim for a big success
straight off, you may fail. Remember that a journey towards
any destination starts with a single step, and then a second and
a third, and as many as required until you reach that destination.
Remember to reward and praise yourself for your successes,
however small they are. By acknowledging them, you increase
your power and will to succeed, strengthening your belief in yourself.
19. Judgment: We have no right to judge another for their
words, thoughts or deeds. They have the freedom of choice
to do as they please and act as they wish, just as we do. We
are in no position to judge anyone, as we are imperfect ourselves.
It is easily done, for example, you see a big man with tattoo's,
a skinhead and wearing leather, and the automatic assumption
is that he is trouble. He may be a florist for all we know. This
colors our judgment of people and changes how we act towards
them. By having no preconceptions of other people, we can
interact better with them, and perhaps make a new friend.
20. Integrity: Integrity is all about how we act when no one
is looking. We must live to our own standards and should not
judge others by them. This is about living in line with our highest
vision despite urges to the contrary.
21. Air Your Doubts: By airing your doubts, fears, and worries,
by looking at them and seeing them for what they are, so you
can conquer them and rid yourself of them forever. By refusing
to confront them, so they gain power over you, and become even
more deeply rooted. After you realize what they are - release them.
22. Failure: It is very rare for us to fail. We only ever
choose to stop trying. That is us exercising our free will.
We can stop trying any time we wish, but those that succeed
never stop until they get to their goal. Success often does
not come easy, and does require work and effort from us.
You will find that most overnight successes' have been
working hard for that success for many years. Failure is
not something to be feared or worried about, because we
can never fail! Everything we do, no matter whether we
view it as a success or failure is a valuable lesson for us to
learn. By looking at a perceived failure as a valuable lesson,
it no longer feels as bad. The only true failure is not learning
the lessons our mistakes teach us.
23. The Ongoing Journey: Our journey of exploration through life
never, ever stops. The destination is not the reward or the goal.
The journey to the destination is the goal itself.
24. Don't Mind: If we take an objective view of our mind,
then we can see that lots of thoughts drift through it, many
of which we are unaware of. A sad, angry or fearful thought
may drift up from the sub-conscious and change how we feel
for no apparent reason. We must take control of the mind through
tools such as meditation, and become aware of these
thoughts and realize them for what they are. Then, we can
let them go and stay relaxed and centered. By consciously
focusing on our breathing, and keeping it deep and even, we
can help to release these negative thoughts.
25. Emotions: Emotions come and go. They flow through us
all the time, often without us even realising. Many of us do
not express our emotions because we feel we have to "Be manly"
or "Be responsible" or "Be cool". When we feel the negative
emotions, we can feel our bodies tense. If we do not express
these emotions when we feel them, the tension is stored within
our bodies. Having emotions is not to be feared and should be
celebrated. When you feel an emotion - express it! If you are
happy - smile and laugh, if you are sad cry. Expressing your
emotions releases the tension they give, and helps you live
more fully in the here and now. Once you have expressed an
emotion, it is gone and will not return with the same force for
that situation. If we refuse to express them and store the
emotions up, then, like damming a fast river, eventually the
water level will rise too high if we do not provide it with an outlet.
26. Play: As children, we play exuberantly. We have fun,
enjoy ourselves and have lots of energy. Then something
happens, we grow up, and we no longer play believing that
adults have to be adult and they don't play. Playing is one
of our greatest sources of pleasure. It takes many forms,
from sport to games to laughing and joking with friends.
Playing increases our energy and makes us more positive.
It makes those around us more positive and generally lifts
the spirits of all involved. There are times to be serious, yes,
but there are times to play too, and that is what we must not forget.

26 Principals Of Life - Part I
Today, I am sharing these 26 Principals of Life.
We all have total, complete control of our actions,
re-actions, thoughts and choices. Choose those that
are true to your authentic Self. Choose those thoughts
and actions that are one's that flow from your heart out
of pure Love.
Nothing will inspire your creativity more than acting
on what you feel most passionate about. Passion and
most certainly Love are great motivators. Know that
what you desire most out of your life is certainly
achievable when you just follow your heart. Love
what you do; do what you Love.
In Gratitude & Love,

26 Principals of Life
by Jason Johns
1. All Are Related: There is a Native American saying, which
translates roughly to "All are Related". Everything in the
universe is part of The Great Spirit, from a rock, to a plant,
to a fish, to a human. The spirit flows between and within
us all, and is the building block of everything. Since we are
all part of the same whole, we should treat the rest of the
whole as if it is part of us, i.e. with compassion and love.
We are all part of the Great Spirit, just like all the different
leaves on a tree are still part of the tree.
2. The Energy Flow: The universe is composed of energy.
This energy flows between everything, us and within us
all. When we have internal blocks, the energy fails to flow
correctly, causing illness, lethargy and other symptoms.
This energy can be directed consciously, we can see it,
and feel it. How we feel affects our energy levels;
negativity drains energy, positivity creates energy.
3. We Are Beings of Both Spirit and Flesh: We are spirits,
but at the same time, we are creatures of the flesh.
We inhabit both worlds simultaneously, even though
we are often unaware of it. We should not shun the flesh
for spirit or vice versa. Both are equally important. We
have to walk with one foot in each of these worlds, and
pay them both attention. Neglecting either world
causes distress in the other.
4. No One Entity is Superior to Another: No one being
or creature is any better or greater than another. We
are all the same. We are all on different paths and have
different levels of understanding, but that does not make
any one of us better than another. Humans are not masters
of nature, nor the animals and plants. They are our
companions, and co-inhabitants of this planet. We are
not superior to them, nor do we own them. We should
treat them all with respect.
5. Belief Creates: How we perceive the universe is shaped
by our beliefs. If we believe we are in a hurry, then everyone
else appears to be going slow. Through belief and positive
thought, we can create virtually anything. We should believe
in our abilities and ourselves, and we will succeed. We can
combine the power of belief with that of visualization to bring
anything into reality.
6. Intuition: Inside of us, a voice speaks and guides us. It is
our intuition. We can choose to ignore it or to listen to it.
Once we are in tune with our intuition and start to listen to
it, we will be guided and will find that we can achieve more
than we thought possible. We will begin to realize that the
Great Spirit works through us - often in mysterious ways,
but always to our benefit - in the long term.
7. The Higher Purpose: Everything that happens is for a
reason and for the greater good. We have to learn to look
at events in our lives from more than just the normal human
perspective. We must see them from the perspective of the
Great Spirit and to look at what good will come from these
events. This is the old maxim of "is the glass half full or half
empty". We can look at events badly, half empty, and our
reaction will be worse. However, should we look at events
better, i.e. half full, then we are more positive, which means
our energy is higher, and our reaction will be better.
8. There are No Ordinary Moments: The past only
exists in our memory. The future only exists as our
expectation. The only time that really exists is NOW.
It is a precious moment and we should treat every single
moment as special and live it to the full. By being in the
present, we have presence. To live in the now the conscious
mind should be quiet and you must focus totally on what
you are doing, not what you are going to be doing next week,
or what you are going to have for lunch.
9. There are No Limits: The only limits we have are those
we place upon ourselves, or others place upon us. To this
end, we should avoid being put in a pigeonhole and labeled
by others. If someone views a dog as being vicious, then it is
more likely to be vicious. We should hold no expectations of
others, and let them be themselves, just as we should be
ourselves.
10. Action not Reaction: If we are tickled, our reaction is to
laugh. We should be at a state where we do not react in a
situation, but act. Reaction is unconscious, whereas Action
is conscious. We should not let past influences affect our
actions, e.g. if we were once bitten by a dog, when we next
meet a dog, we should not let the past bite affect how we act
towards it. There are times to act, as well as times to be still.
By living in the present and having control of the conscious
mind, we can better direct our action.
11. Positivity Rules: Negative thoughts attract negative
events and drain our energy. Positive thoughts attract
positive events and increase our energy. To this end, we
should look at our thoughts and the events which happen
to us in a positive light, realizing negative thoughts for what
they are and releasing them.
12. Posture, Pose & Breathing: Energy flows through
the body, as it flows through all things. If the posture
and pose are bad, the energy can not flow cleanly and
causes blockages, which manifest as pain or illness.
We breathe in energy from the world around us. Therefore,
our breaths should be deep and full, coming from the
bottom of the belly, and not the chest. This enables us to
maximize our energy. Deep breathing helps relax us. When
we are stressed, angry or afraid our breathing changes and
becomes shallow and faster. By consciously controlling our
breathing and keeping it deep and even, we can release the
stress, anger or fear, enabling us to act consciously
in the situation.
13. Everything in Balance: The universe exists in a state of
balance, as should we. We can do anything we wish,
but should always do it to moderation, never to excess.
Should we do things to excess, then they can become
addictive, which drains energy and may become negative.
Being balanced allows us to act better in situations. If we
are sat on the fence, so to speak, we can jump off either
way should we desire to.
We all have total, complete control of our actions,
re-actions, thoughts and choices. Choose those that
are true to your authentic Self. Choose those thoughts
and actions that are one's that flow from your heart out
of pure Love.
Nothing will inspire your creativity more than acting
on what you feel most passionate about. Passion and
most certainly Love are great motivators. Know that
what you desire most out of your life is certainly
achievable when you just follow your heart. Love
what you do; do what you Love.
