  • I am open to the possibility that the Universe has a larger plan for me.

    Life-Path Story Mazes – #50 I am open to the possibility that the Universe has a larger plan for me.

    My tiny steps of order and harmony open me to the idea that the Universe has a larger plan for me.

    I see the consistent results as they build a marvelous life for me.

    I am not alone in my ability to listen within and to take tiny steps.

    I am manifesting the ideas which come to me, and I am experiencing the upliftment and peace and tranquility of ife.

    This is a possibility for anyone who learns about this.

    I have been inspired by so many writers and workshop leaders.

    It is my hope to inspire others.

    The larger plan the Universe has for me is manifested in the same way as the tiny steps have led me into a larger and more harmonious life.

    I keep taking the tiny steps with the confidence that they are leading me where I can do the most good.

    We are all so very precious.

    We feel this way towards the young and we help them grow up in ways that allow them to continue to feel precious and worthy.

    Even though life is full of challenges and obstacles, we are able to overcome them through our consistent tiny steps.

    We feel directed through the impulses of our inner listening.

    There is only one direction to move, outward and upward.

    It is wonderful to inspire others.

    It is wonderful to discover the power of inspiration within each one of us.

    It is exciting to see ideas connect which create more harmony and abundance.

    We are naturally led to take the individual and collective action which brings harmony and abundance to all of us.

    The unlimited Universe makes this possible.

    Our life-path expands as we experience our own abundance and  are impelled to share the simple steps which have created it.

    This is the Universe’s larger plan.

  • Praise

    Meditation Drawing 4.13 Praise

    Praise what is good in your life.

    Praise yourself for taking your next tiny step, each time.

    Praise the beauty around you.

    Live in a state of praise and appreciation.

    You are worthy.

    You attract good to your life.

    Your life is an uplifting experience to those who are watching your progress.

    You are developing an inward ability to love yourself.

    Praise that new approach for what it is doing for you.

    Live in constant recognition for the good you are doing.

    It is helping to uplift a very confused world.

    Your ability to see good and to feel good is a direct contradiction to the confusion.

    Keep it up!

    Your consistency, and you live it daily, is one of the ways that good is breaking through for everyone.

    We all have the ability to live well by sharing our gifts, energies and talents and skills.

    Share yours often and generously and praise yourself for doing so.

    Trust your intuition and praise yourself for doing so.

    It is the intangible resource which connects you to your divine Source.

    Your ability to tune in through intuition places you in a different world.

    You are able to send waves of energy out from this world.

    They inspire and uplift those who catch a thread.

    Your ability to recognize and praise your efforts honors the Universe who gave you your gifts and talents.

    You are the messenger of good tidings and peace and wholeness which are available to everyone who listens within and takes tiny steps of action.

  • Comfort of being steady

    Comfort #51 Comfort of being  steady

    When I began searching for a way to fix my life, what I was looking for was stability.

    My very first Meditation Drawing is called “Stable”.

    The meditation I wrote to go along with it expresses my idea of being  stable.

    All I need, I receive by my consistent, steady practice of listening within.

    This is  how I began.

    Since my first experience of listening within and receiving the idea for my first Meditation Drawing, I have made more than one thousand drawings.

    This helped me focus on a small space and began to relieve my debilitating panic attacks.

    I have also written the uplfiting meditations to go with them.

    This practice allowed me to calm down and reestablish my health.

    It took all my energy to learn to wait patiently.

    I got tired of all the solutions available through my own opinions and those of others.

    No other experience gave me what I needed.

    From this initial steadying experience and Meditation Drawing, I have been guided to learn many more art and writing skills.

    I have been led to hire an instructor to teach me technology so I could create an on-line Inner Peace Living Retreat.

    I have gained confidence in learning more ways to share my inspiration and peace.

    I recieve a steady flow of ideas for topics to explore in an inspirational way.

    I take my tiny steps as directed by the Universe and my inspiration becomes available to all those who will most benefit.

    There is an attraction to steadiness and peace.

    I am glad it has become a part of my new life.

    I am confident in what I express and how I express it.

    I invite everyone to increase their inner peace by the steady practice of listening within.

  • Many Routes to Happiness

    Pebbles of Peace Pathway 4.10 –
    Many Routes to Happiness

    There are many routes to happiness besides the Western one.

    I taught music lessons in the homes of some of the wealthiest people in the Dallas area for four years.

    I used to say that I taught in millions of dollars worth of office space.

    But I did not always teach happy children.

    And though I often saw very happy families, there were also tense, unhappy, pressured families as well.

    Happiness consists of being the person who does what she loves to do.

    With what one young friend calls, “passion and purpose”, we can live happily with fulfillment.

    That answer looks different to different people.

    We complement one another with our differences and preferences.

    That is why there really is a route to world happiness.

    We all have to embrace it in our own different ways.

    It is not a case of competing for limited world resources.

    It is the will to allow everyone to live well.

    The more individuals who find this way help lay the groundwork for the next individuals.

    The more businesses which look to the well-being of all employees and their surroundings help lay the groundwork for the next businesses.

    The triple bottom line works for everyone – people, place, profit.

    We all participate as we take, and encourage others to take, steps to happiness.

    Life-Path Story Mazes – #49 I am releasing confusion and discovering order along my life-path.

    Looking at  the possibilities of the Infinite releases confusion and establishes order in my life.

    The variety of possibilities is immense.

    I am drawn to what corresponds most accurately to my individuality.

    That is how order is established in my life.

    My life proceeds in a way which allows me to express ideas which are beneficial to me and to others.

    I am able to live the most uplifting life when it releases me from limitations.

    This is a catalyst to others to discover their individuality and direction.

    It all works together to create order and satisfaction and fulfillment.

    There is no confusion when we direct our efforts to well-being for all.

    This comes as we realize that we live in an Infinite Universe which is manifesting Itself through us, and as all of us.

    We lose our confusion when we move into cooperation.

    We are no longer competing for limited resources.

    We are utilizing our resources in ways which are unlimiting and beneficial for everyone.

    This is possible when we realize we are living in an Infinite Universe Who Loves Us.

    We experience the connection to resources as we need them.

    Our projects flow in an orderly and harmonious way.

    We meet our deadlines.

    We see the successful release of our products.

    This is how we release confusion and discover unlimited order in a harmonious Universe.

  • Prove

    Meditation Drawing 4.12 Prove

    We are here to prove the presence of uplifting ideas.

    It is our purpose and our privilege.

    As we each discover our gifts and learn how to share them, we give evidence of this process.

    As we move from isolation into manifestation, it is our generosity which brings us into contact with others.

    Our manifestation proves the process of moving from inner listening to tiny steps to fufillment.

    We gain proof of our divine relationship as we seek to contribute to well-being for all.

    The Universe we live in loves all of us.

    We prove this every time we discover a new teaching tool which applies to every student.

    We receive evidence every time a new invention utilizes resources sustainably.

    Each step towards personal peace sets in motion a wave which resolves conflict.

    We are restored and uplifted as our efforts inspire action which surpasses previous steps.

    Our proof of happiness comes one tiny step at a time as we build a new foundation of trust and intuition.

    We naturally desire to share it and welcome opportunities to do so.

    Happiness and well-being are contagious once we set those steps into action.

    Providing recognition, respect and dignity leads to solutions through skills training.

    Each one is able to prove and demonstrate their ability to contribute.

    New innovative and imaginative ideas appear where there is this kind of opening.

    New contributors are able to prove how they work.

    We reach more people and let them know they are seen and valued.

    We invite them to contribute to the innovation.

    This uplifting attitude proves itself over and over again, as more new people are attracted.

    This new model gains momentum, proving its’ worth.

    We are all involved in living the results of creating a new model.

    We all prove the value of realizing and manifesting well-being for all.
