  • Comfort of being where you belong

    Comfort #14 – Comfort of being where you belong.

    We each have a place where we belong.

    It is a feeling deep within which resonates with what feels best to us.

    We are drawn to that place from resources beyond ourselves.

    We know when we feel the call.

    We are energized to move in a particular direction.

    It may be a career direction.

    It may be a relationship direction.

    It may be a geographical call.

    It is always a feeling.

    We may be called by a book we have read or a program we have seen.

    We may be called by an activity we participated in.

    Whatever it is, there is a distinctive feeling of belonging.

    We find ourselves in action to move closer to maintain the feeling.

    It goes beyond reason.

    it is not visible to anyone else.

    It is a powerful, consistent, persistent feeling of well-being.

    We may feel agitated until we act on the feeling.

    We can take our steps with confidence even if we do not know why.

    We may find our place of belonging through contrast.

    When it becomes very clear where we do not belong, being in motion allows us to receive direction and guidance.

    Because of our connection to the Divine, we can take our steps in faith and confidence.

    We are always being guided to our highest expression.

    We belong in happiness, beauty, safety, security and appreciation.

    We belong in recognition and reward.

    We have so much to give and we are being guided where to give it.

    That is where we belong.

  • The Highest Motives (2/17)

    Pebbles of Peace Pathways 3.26 – The Highest Motives (2/17) –

    The Highest Motives

    The highest and best power in the world is the  power we have to hold one another in high esteem.

    This causes us to act in the ways that most uplift ourselves and those around us.

    This feeling moves outward and embraces everyone one we know and every one we don’t even know all over the planet.

    It is time to begin to consider the great gift of compassion we all have to share.

    Despite the narrow view we are presented through our leadership, we can maintain the best view, that of valuing and caring for one another.

    It is powerful to consider our deep convictions.

    When someone or some organization doesn’t live up to what we can conceive as a higher and better way to live, we can remind ourselves of the value of our viewpoint.

    Put all your thought-weight into the right side of the equation.

    Acknowledge its’ goodness, its’ perfection.

    Acknowledge your ability to see how good and how uplifting your viewpoint is in this matter.

    Don’t even argue with the present realities or how they came to be.

    Feel the presence of solutions that are wonderful for everyone who lives on the planet.

    These are our neighbors.

    What business do any of us have to be fighting over the old resources when we have so many more to offer through our uplifted cooperation?

    We are not separate.  We are all One.  And our welfare is in our own hands.

  • I keep searching until I find what I love along my life-path.

    Life-Path Story Mazes – #14 I keep searching until I find what I love along my life-path.

    My life-path does not feel complete until I find what I love to do.

    Then, I can devote myself to doing it.

    I am honest about looking for the possibilities.

    Does this actually feel good to me?

    If not, I do not have to do it.

    I no longer have to take on any roles which are not my choice.

    I can honestly assess what I am feeling.

    Gradually, I build up a vocabulary of honest feelings.

    I do not exist in terms of someone else.

    I have my own existence.

    My own feelings are valid for me.

    I can trust my feelings.

    I love listening to my intuition.

    I can try something new, many new things.

    I know that I am attracted to what is best in my character.

    If I am out of alignment, I know it.

    What I love to do feels energizing.

    I can develop the resources to do what I love.

    In fact, I attract the resources when I align with my passion.

    I have a place in the world, and it is one that makes me happy.

    It makes me so happy doing what I love that it overflows into the lives of others and makes them happy, too.

    My first steps give me a new view.

    As I continue in my new rhythm, I am sure to discover what I love.

    I have a right to find and to enjoy doing work I love.
