If, in moving through your life, you find yourself lost, go back to the last place where you knew who you were, and what you were doing, and start from there. ~Bernice Johnson Reagon |
What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us. ~Ralph Waldo Emerson |
thoughts to ponder from What the *BLEEP* Do We Know?!?
:glasses: There are hundreds of hidden assumptions, things we take for granted that may or may not be true. In the vast majority of these cases, historically, these things aren’t true. If history is any guide, much about what we take for granted about the world simply isn’t true. But we’re locked into these precepts without even knowing it oftentimes, that’s a paradigm.
:sunglass: Have you ever thought about what thoughts are made of? :readfineprint: Modern materialism strips people of the need to be responsible and often enough so does religion. :sunglass: Why do we keep creating the same reality? Is it possible that we’re so conditioned to our daily lives, so conditioned to the way we create our lives, that we buy the idea that we have no control at all We’ve been conditioned to believe that the external world is more real than the internal world. Quantum physics says the opposite. It says what happens within us will create what is happening outside of us. :glasses: All of us have a habit of thinking that everything around us is already a thing, existing without my input, without my choice. You have to banish that kind of thinking. Instead, recognise that the material world around us (chairs, tables, rooms, carpet – are nothing but possible movements of consciousness. I'm choosing moment to moment out of those movements to bring my actual experience into manifestation. Our tendency is to believe that the world is already out there, independent of our experience. :sunglass: The deepest level of truth uncovered by science and by philosophy is the fundamental truth of unity. At that deepest sub-nuclear level of our reality, you and I are literally one. |
There is something in every one of you that waits and listens for the sound of the genuine in yourself. It is the only true guide you will ever have. And if you cannot hear it, you will all of your life spend your days on the ends of strings that somebody else pulls.

The circle of the return to birth can only remain open, but this is a chance, a sign of life, and a wound.

"Deep into the darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before,"
- E.A. Poe |
If we discovered that we had only five minutes left to say all that we wanted to say, every phone would be used by people calling other people to stammer that they loved them.

“We do not believe in ourselves until someone reveals that deep inside us something is valuable, worth listening to, worthy of our trust, sacred to our touch. Once we believe in ourselves we can risk curiosity, wonder, spontaneous delight or any experience that reveals the human spirit.” - e.e. cummings. |
"Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can't practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage." - Maya Angelou |
“Love is anterior to life, posterior to death, initial of creation, and the exponent of breath.” - Emily Dickinson |
"Growing up is never easy. You hold on to things that were. You wonder what's to come, but that night, I think Ii knew it was time to let go of what had been, and look ahead to what would be. Other days. new days. days to come. The thing is, I didn't have to hate myself for getting older. I just had to forgive myself... for growing up." ~ Kevin Arnold, "The Wonder Years"

"Show me a man or a woman alone and I'll show you a saint. Give me two and they'll fall in love. Give me three and they'll invent that charming thing we call 'society.' Give me four and they'll build a pyramid. Give me five and they'll make one an outcast. Give me six and they'll reinvent prejudice. Give me seven and in seven years they'll reinvent warfare." - Stephen King, The Stand

"Generally, by the time you are Real, most of your hair has been loved off, and your eyes drop out and you get loose in the joints and very shabby. But these things don't matter at all, because once you are Real you can't be ugly, except to people who don't understand." - Margery Williams, The Velveteen Rabbit

With The Reunion in mind.....
In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit.
~Albert Schweitzer |
Housework is like bad sex. Every time I do it I swear I will never do it again. Until the next time company comes.
