Refuse to walk...

...blindly through life.

View your personal reality

as an artist

with an eye for beauty and balance.

notes...

I provided a camera for Price

we had fun

I could feel my face hurt from laughing 

movie Hoppers reminds me of me

there were moments that Price would say

 "Robin"

it was sweet

💗

Relax- body, mind, and soul

trusting and thanking God

let  your gentleness be evident to all

if you want to soar

take your eyes off of what 

everyone else is doing

rid your heart of entanglements

throw off encumbrances

enjoy your journey

test your priorities

what is important to you

don't get caught 

in your own trap

you'll be known for your opinions

you'll be remembered for your love

be determined to fulfill

the role of your best self

understand why you're doing 

what you're doing

find delight in it

gratitude is a state of being

it's about having awareness of

and a deep appreciation for

the many miracles in your life

gratitude strengthens your faith

having a strong faith is the key

to transforming your life

stop and notice all the things you

are grateful for

make it part of your routine

handle life well today

and trust you can do the same tomorrow

be well...

"So often people who have the same definition of fun

have the same definition of love."

"Faith is your best buddy

when your scared shitless."

"I have found that winning isn't everything,

and, in fact,

in the relationships I most care about,

it isn't anything."

 "It is one of the beautiful compensations

in this life that no one can

sincerely try to help another

without helping himself."

~Ralph Waldo Emerson~

Get good....

 

....at what you do.

Do the best you can.

Don't loose the fun in the process.

notes...

do good

share with others

you have everything you need

to be bold

you have the power to change  your mind-

and that is an amazing thing

choose joy

choose happiness

choose peace

commit  yourself

on a deep level

trust yourself

ask God for guidance

listen quietly

let His light strengthen you

choose to live courageously

develop an attitude of

appreciation

see the good in a situation

choose to be thankful regardless

of what goes wrong

faith is what you do with your 

accumulated beliefs...

living out what you believe

hide scripture in your heart

He gives you what you need

to know

when you need it

pause and be quiet

wait

timing is everything

love and care for the people in 

front of you

sometimes the best advice you can give

is a hug

you already have a part

play it with assurance

you can contribute to the flow

you don't have to figure it all out

sow seeds of life

water them daily

"Blessed are the peacemakers"

Matthew 5:9

just go love everybody today

be well...

"The great thing about a positive attitude

is that it creates it's own ambience.

It is it's own scenic overlook,

it's own flowering meadow,

it's own walk on the beach."

"It's not about finding fun things to do.

It's about finding someone in whose 

company it's all fun."

Continuously live...

...your dream

no matter what stage of life your in.

You're still allowed to dream.

notes...

faith, hope and love all

work together to shield you 

as you journey through this world

you're not waiting on God

He's waiting on you

self-control is a necessary 

discipline in meditation

control your mind

when you are shown the truth

write it down

don't give your past

too much power

you don't need to let who you used to be

decide who you're going to be

overcome your judgments 

move forward in grace

the fight with yesterday is over

even if you don't realize it yet

it isn't that yesterday didn't happen

it just doesn't matter anymore

'focus on the positives

instead of the list of negatives

you've collected'

take a new approach 

to what you're doing

stop wasting time & energy trying to 

change and control that

which you cannot change and control

focus on what's possible

do stuff 

just because it's fun

go do your thing

when you're so lost in what your doing

that you lose all sense of time

you have entered your flow

get in there as much as possible

make doing the things you love

a priority

there are endless ways of doing things

and seeing things

inspiration doesn't always have to 

come to you

you can create it

nature is the ultimate source 

of inspiration

'love yourself

unless you have a better idea'

be well...

"Your not too old,

and it's not too late."

"Where shall I find my happiness today--

in my memories, in my dreams,

in my appreciation of the moment?

The last one would be a novel idea."

"Believe in yourself

and you'll be unstoppable."

 

Cultivating a sense...

...of wonder can bring you back to your joy

& cut through distractions.

notes..

Poppy popping, Brandon here for work,

Gary pausing to swing,

rain on and off, 

and capturing moments in between.

look & listen mode

there is power in showing up

solitude is being alone with God

silence is listening to Him

believe from moment to moment

80% of your thoughts are devoid of any power

to help you

 but actively work against you

think more cheerful thoughts

the voice you believe will determine

the future you experience

find your happy place

to improve your life

a simple picture, song, text, or 

conversation can lift your 

perspective and keep 

you moving forward in faith

you don't have to reinvent your life overnight-

just make some steps toward your destination

passion is the muse of

authenticity

passion is a part of 

real life's package

may you be present and aware

throughout the day

this is where you learn to grow

to love

to trust

this is life

let life in

nothing is ordinary

be well...

"If you're going to overcome the thoughts

that hold you back,

first you have to give up the hope that

they'll ever go away."

"What makes accepting reality so hard

is that our perception of reality keeps changing,

while our delusions stick to their story."

"We find our imagination the means to overcome

most obstacles,

a good thing because that's where

we find most obstacles."

"Since we cannot change reality,

let us change the eyes

which see reality."
