Romance to Oneself

Saturday, August 11th, 2007

Romance is a heart-worthy word. So rarely used for ourselves. Yet if we can’t fall in love with ourselves, whom can we expect to wholeheartedly love us?

How long has it been since you danced, cut out paper hearts, wrote a love note or a poem, bought a long-stem rose, sang a song, perhaps? Who says you have to save those experiences for other loved ones? Just pick one and Do it!

Create a good life heartbeat rhythms for ourSelf. It will give us so much more good to share with others. Refuel ourSelf!

aWaken to Purpose

Friday, August 3rd, 2007

There is a part of us that seeks to awaken. Each of us has a purpose within and beyond the moment. We bring into our lives what we desire at some level to work on, to build, to improve, to let go of. Sometimes it seems trivial or scary to open our eyes to inner mysteries. Why are we drawn to a beautiful person, object, handcraft, bird, or flower? There is always a bud that wishes to burst into blossom in our life.

What do we value? What and who do we count on to nourish and sustain us? If our roots need better ground for more nourishment, think of what we can do to feed Ourself. Remember that we are rooted to our Maker through this creative process of Life. Act in faith that we have purpose, and send out our own new shoots for good.

Trust is a very crucial factor for all relationships. When trust is broken, it is the end of the relationship. Lack of trust leads to suspicion, suspicion generates anger, anger causes enmity and enmity may result in separation.

" A speech will either prosper or ruin a nation "

Many relationships break off because of wrong speech. Many relationships fail because one party tries to overpower another, or demand too much. People in love tend to think that love will conquer all and their partners will change the bad habits after marriage.

It is never easy to change. Thus, having high expectation will cause disappointment and unpleasantness. It would be less painful to change ourselves and lower our expectations.

Too often we fail to recognize the difference between the person and the performance. We forget that forgiveness is greater than revenge.

People make mistakes. We are allowed to make mistakes. But the actions we take while in a rage will haunt us forever.

" Good life starts only when you stop wanting a better One "
