Looking back to move forward

As I look back on the last 6 months and the paths I have taken I have few regrets. Of course I wish I could have spent more time on what I consider fun things like, working on this blog, Spending more time with my love ones, Praying and meditating more. Now here comes the however, I believed I had to do’s like working to maintain shelter and transportation, as well as eating healthy and resting to maintain my health.

I based this blog on discerning life and purpose by journaling and now set my intention to proceed on a regular basis with journaling tips, motivational and inspiring quotes. As well as some reflective questions, also known as writing prompts, springboards, or smart questions.
Thank you for joining me on this path.

“All of life is a journey which paths we take, what we look back on, and what we look forward to is up to us. We determine our destination, what kind of road we will take to get there, and how happy we are when we get there.”

Don't work so hard!

“The effortless life is the life that brings light into our eyes, an expanding warmth into our hearts, a sense of pride into our bellies, and an assurance that we can manifest something truly meaningful through what we do. It’s the life we are meant to live.”-- Ingrid Bacci

Review & Recommit

Take time to review our quality of life gives us a chance to re-evaluate what we are doing and where we want to go. It lets us fine-tune our direction, to ensure we are on track for what we most want.

• Stop and think about your last 6 months.
• What did you learn?
• What would you like to do differently?
• Where do you want to recommit?
• How much attention do we give to planning the direction of our lives?

THE PLEA

Linda K Mottet

THE PLEA
Moment to moment, the soldiers march the linear thread, before dawn
and beyond, into the midnight.
Their eyes cannot see in the thick darkness; but their lips struggle
to form thoughtful word.
They desire to claim a definition right; the perfect label, correct
concept of self, in order to justify their endless marching in the night.
But no one can agree on anything, except their mutual separation.
There is not one who can be believed, because all believe they are
deceived.
Together they weave their filament threads, until they are trapped in
endless renumeration.
Together they wrap their web around the newborn of every generation.
Together they demand the sucklings cleave, in order to continue to
believe, they are the saviors that feed.

Their threads weave the quilted patterns tight, so every newborn
soldier will continue the march in the night.
Together they place their words and all the information on blank
journal pages, to be preserved and guide all the future congregations
in worship of their chosen rage.
Together they paint the illustrations that prove nothing, but their
own belief in the illusion of decay.
Now, they all recite with perfect memorization, and vanish every trace
of the song of Grace.

Still, Harmonic Tones sound and blend and giant trees in gratitude bend.
Into the monotone situation, Invisible Wings unfold; and beckon the
tired soldiers to march into the moonlight and glimpse the Illumination.
Each one is extended the invitation to join in the joyful celebration,
and find rest basking in the Golden Rays of the Great Central Sun:
Where all moments and all linear threads merge into One Holy Instant;
where all marching soldiers, who have ever come, converge in the Eternal.
Invisible Wings Unfold to lift each One and carry them beyond their
mimic expression.
Not one will fail, because they are all destined to succeed.
But, for now, they have forgotten to Whom they direct their plea.
