Being alone
"I wish Pooh were here. It’s so much more friendly with two."
-- Piglet (A.A. Milne)
Are you willing to be alone?
Ingrid Bacci says, "If you are afraid of being alone, you are dependent on others for your sense of self, and if you are dependent on others, you block your receptivity to inner guidance. Being willing to be alone involves being willing to be different, to have commitments and values that don’t blend with any crowd."
"Man’s loneliness is but his fear of life."
-- Eugene O'Neill
"I celebrate myself, and sing myself."
-- Walt Whitman

How do you define success?
"He who has achieved success has worked well, laughed often and loved much."
-- Elbert Hubbard
"Too often, people focus only on results. But getting results without learning something or without having fun are incomplete. So is having fun without getting the results, or having fun without learning something new to help and empower you in the future. Accomplishment is all three: the result, personal growth and having fun."
-- Peter L. Hirsch
"There are many aspects to success; material wealth is only one component. ...But success also includes good health, energy and enthusiasm for life, fulfilling relationships, creative freedom, emotional and psychological stability, a sense of well-being, and peace of mind."
-- Deepak Chopra
"You don’t have to stay up nights to succeed; you have to stay awake days."
-- Source Unknown

At other times, just enjoy the company of angels. And ask God to let you know more about these wonderful beings.
- Joan Wester Anderson
Respond to your angel’s wish to connect with you. Get into the habit of starting the day by saying “hi” to your angelic friend.

"Life is a succession of lessons, which must be lived to be understood."
~ Ralph Waldo Emerson
In my house I have put together a collection of small and large toys I can’t live without. The child who doesn’t play is not a child, but the man who doesn’t play has lost forever the child who lived in him and he will certainly miss him. I have also built my house like a toyhouse and I play in it from morning till night.
-Pablo Neruda

Open your hands
"More than any other part of the body, our hands reveal our inner state."
-- Omraam Mikhaël Aïvanhov
Today, be aware of how you hold your hands when you’re not actively doing something with them.
With the stress of our daily lives, many of us find our hands typically clenched in fists. This is proof of the tension we hold in our bodies. And ponder this: how can we receive the abundance of life if our hands are not open to receive it?
When you become aware that your hands are closed tight, stretch your fingers and spread them wide in the shape of a starfish. Deep breathing will also help you relax into the moment.
"What is always speaking silently is the body."
-- Norman Brown

We all need a little more courage now and then. That’s what I need. If you have some to share, I want to know you. Your criticisms you can keep to yourselves.

Health and help
"More tears are shed over answered prayers than unanswered ones."
-- Mother Teresa
If we are prompted to ask for spiritual blessings for ourselves or others, how do we best do this?
Speaker Kimberly Herkert offers that it is best to simply ask the divine for health and help. As human beings, we are not capable of seeing the big picture for anyone’s situation. As a result, we are not able to judge what is best for anyone, including ourselves.
The Higher Power always knows best, and the general prayer for ‘health and help’ acknowledges the wisdom that exists there and our faith in divine will.
"God answers prayer in His own way, not ours."
-- Mohandas Gandhi
