    Now is the time for good world relations

    When we hear a news story, we have a choice in how we respond.

    We can react and take sides or we can ask for a higher view.

    The best approach is through inner listening.

    The same way we are guided in our personal lives, we can be guided in our attitude about world events even though we are not in charge.

    We can send the energy of the harmony we have felt in our own lives.

    We can send the energy of peace and thoughtful action.

    We can send the energy of compassion for those affected in the immediate vicinity.

    We can send the energy of completeness and satisfaction and enough.

    This counters the validation of violence.

    This clears space for an intelligent solution which benefits all parties.

    No one is served by destruction.

    There is adequate protection and resources for everyone when thoughtful distribution of resources is applied.

    We no longer need to act on personal opinion when well-being for all is the goal.

    We can share our resources and look forward to seeing a better sense of life for everyone.

    We can value the contribution of communities which are living in peace.

    We can appreciate the gifts of their own development of resources and skills.

    The masterful strokes of compassion will leave communities and countries in peace.

    Families will be able to be nurtured through normal living.

    Emergencies and refugees will become a thing of the past.

    Effective solutions will have room to appear through unthreatened clarity of thought.

    Everyone will breathe more freely.

    Children will grow up in safety.

    A good quality of life is possible now as we embrace the true Source of it.

    All are valued and protected through action which takes place from this basis.

  • Now is the time for family harmony

    Young Persons Mentor/Uplifting Parenting –

    Now is the time for family harmony

    Even with the best of routines to maintain harmonious space, there are sometimes conflicts.

    Now is the best time to reestablish family harmony.

    Hug each participant and sit them down and listen to them.

    Acknowledge their discomfort and grievance.

    Listen within for what to say.

    Demonstrate your willingness to find a solution that is above and beyond your experience.

    Invite each party to take a deep breath to move themselves into a peaceful state.

    Sit quietly as you do this together.

    Continue to listen.

    Ask each person what they “heard” through their listening.

    Listen some more.

    Let the new discussion take place about what to do or how to act.

    There is always a solution and it comes to each of us.

    When we are willing to hear the higher view, it lifts us into it.

    Differences create opportunities to move into harmony.

    Teaching a listening stance is an important resource for everyone to practice.

    It is different from imposing a decision based on the parent’s view.

    The parent is aware of how inner listening solves challenges through their practice.

    Other family members can be brought into this practical way of solving differences.

    There is always time for a hug and for listening to the story, and then for listening within.

    Calming down to create clarity of thought is a valuable step.

    Because the solution is always available from a higher view, harmony is accessible right now.

    Give yourself and your family members the gift of this practice.

    Watch how a calming attitude leads toward resolution.

    It is the quickest way to family harmony.

  • Now is the time for good ideas

    Your Diamond Mind –

    Now is the time for good ideas

    I listen within and I receive new, fresh ideas every day.

    It is a new habit and a good one.

    The ability to receive ideas is powerful because it always moves you forward.

    You are able to see new ways of doing things that create effective results.

    You can create a new product idea.

    You can create a new service idea.

    You can create an idea which is uplifting and harmonious and efficient and effective.

    All the tiny steps which go into bringing the idea into manifestation are part of the idea’s package.

    You learn about each step as you listen within and take action on the previous step.

    Your commitment to the idea strengthens it.

    It makes it more and more visible to you.

    As it matures in your thought, you are guided to when to make it visible to others.

    Each idea has its own attracting force.

    You are the first one which it attracted.

    You are its messenger, its care-giver.

    You nurture it, you protect it, you love it, you devote yourself to its manifestation.

    You see it through each tiny step and detail of its expression and manifestation.

    You are identified as the innovator, the designer, the facilitator.

    You take on the roles which are necessary to bring it forth.

    You do this by continuing to listen within.

    You devotion lets your Source know you are sincere, and It keeps feeding you the next steps.

    You exult as you see each new step manifested.

    You discover new ways of executing the product idea, new materials, new characteristics.

    Your energy attracts whatever is necessary to make your creation a success.

  • Now is Peace

    Pebbles of Peace –

    Now is Peace

    I take my deep breath and I breathe in the peace.

    I feel it permeate throughout my whole body, soul and mind.

    Now is peace.

    In this moment, I have moved myself into peace.

    I can do this wherever I am, at any time.

    I can move myself into a feeling of peace and clarity.

    I do not have to rush to make a decision.

    I can make a decision in peace.

    I am not hurried, but I am always where I need to be.

    Such is the power of peace.

    I choose to leave the disturbing cycle of news and to live in a peaceful place of Guidance.

    I am always certain to be in my right place, doing what is mine to do.

    I am here to uplift and to live in peace.

    My contribution is discerned through inner listening at every possible moment.

    Even though I may think I know what to do, I can always listen and take higher action.

    My moment is always in the Now.

    The past no longer enslaves me to its view.

    The new possibilities are for peace, within me and all around me.

    This is true for each person.

    As we create our peace, it permeates into the atmosphere.

    We are redirecting the course of the world.

    We are choosing peace.

    We are choosing universal well-being and comfort for all through inner listening.

    We each have this power.

    Let’s see what happens when we do it collectively.

  • Where I stand now

    Loved Cherished Adored –

    Where I stand now

    In this moment, I stand on who I am.

    Who I have demonstrated myself to be.

    What my goals are, what my accomplishments are, my inner thoughts, my outer actions.

    I stand on my new perception of myself as loved, cherished and adored.

    I stand on my present happiness and the happiness I can expect.

    I stand on my identity the way the Universe sees me.

    I am so grateful to be in this present moment where I can vector myself anywhere.

    I am not a person living in the past.

    I began telling myself that I live in beautiful surroundings long before it happened.

    I began telling myself, “I  love me”, the most powerful thing I have ever learned.

    I am standing on the ground created by those actions.

    My inner listening has teamed me up with my Source.

    I get my information and identity from inner Guidance.

    I  take my tiny steps of action over and over again.

    My new life is the result.

    I can acknowledge many stepping stones on my way out of negativity and fear.

    That is the only significance of the past to me.

    Opportunities were created for me to move myself into a new view, and I have done it.

    I embrace myself where I stand now.

    I am grateful for the peace and the inspiration.

    I am grateful for those who have done the work and pointed the way.

    I am grateful to do the work and to add my voice of encouragement.

    We can create a new life for ourselves.

    We can love ourselves enough to take the tiny steps over and over again to form new habits.

    This connects us with the Power to change our lives.

  • The effect of passion

    Shared Global Vision –

    The Effect of Passion

    When were are devoted to a cause, and give it our rigorous attention, we see a shift in the world.

    At first, we notice the shift in ourselves.

    Through our passion, we do whatever is necessary to find resources.

    We engage other people when we can.

    We develop a skill set of excellence to practice our passion.

    We study, we talk, we take our tiny steps of action.

    Through all of this, we are altering the fabric of the world.

    We are creating a slightly different wave of direction.

    We are giving thoughtful attention to an issue.

    This draws more resources to us.

    We are able to utilize them to create the effect or change we desire.

    This alters our environment.

    It gives meaning to us.

    it identifies us with the issue and its solution.

    We find more ways to share our message.

  • Passionate devotion to ideas

    Your Diamond Mind –

    Passionate Devotion to Ideas

    It is so much fun to come up with a new, effective idea.

    This happened to me over and over again as a music teacher.

    During my morning spiritual study, I would listen for what I needed for the day.

    I had three notebooks, one for spiritual ideas, one for errands, and one for music teaching ideas.

    During my study, I wrote down the ideas that came to me.

    It was so much fun to implement them.

    I still retain my devotion, even though I am no longer in the classroom.

    There are new ways to express the ideas which come to me.

    My goal is to share inspiration and peace.

    This is possible in many different ways.

    Uplifting conversation is one of the ways which is available.

    We do not have to be stuck in the distressing news cycles.

    We can take a deep breath and listen within for a different view.

    We can be led to take tiny steps in an uplifting direction.

    We can build a completely new life through our tiny steps.

    I have.

    I love to be engaged in uplifting expression.

    In addition to writing, I have learned how to draw.

    My main drawing experience is what I  call “Meditation Drawings”.

    It is a calming expression for me, and came to me when I was experiencing debilitating panic attacks.

    Other things I enjoy with passionate devotion are weaving, sewing, and making textile art.

    When we pay attention to our intuition, it guides us to fulfilling expression.

    It is our communion with our Higher  Power, the Universe  Who Loves Us.

    It is our way to express our purpose in the world.
