There’s even a religious idea of resting on the seventh day. Sometimes, you have to let things happen and rest a bit.

Trying to do good. Born and raised and living in NYC.
“Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth.”

“We have to move from the illusion of certainty to the certainty of illusion.”
-Sam Keen
“Look at the trees, look at the birds, look at the clouds, look at the stars…and if you have eyes you will be able to see that the whole existence is joyful. Everything is simply happy. Trees are happy for no reason; they aren’t going to become first ministers or presidents and they aren’t going to become rich and they will never have any bank balance. Look at the flowers–for no reason. It’s simply unbelievable how happy flowers are.”
-Osho
“Breath sweeps mind.”
-Jakusho Kwong
Things are meant to change. People are meant to change. Growth is change and so is death. When something outlives its usefulness and purpose, it must go. Empires lasting hundreds of years eventually fallen. Languages and cultures and lifestyles have gone so that new ones may arise. Change is a part of life, and humans are agents of that change. Over millennia we’ve affected and changed the outcomes of countless species of plants and animals, and terrain. Dinosaurs roamed the Earth for millions of years, millions! By comparison it’s estimated homo sapiens have been around for 200,000. Now the dinosaurs are gone.
Things change, people change. You cannot prevent yourself from affecting and changing the world. Just by living, you affect the entire planet
Your power is the power of growth and change. You embody the agent of change, if you were to but direct it on to your ambition, change occurs with every single step. And when your path converges on others with the same ambition with same direction of change, the results are amplified manyfold. Things canot remain the same so long as you are discontent. Change is your right, your nature, your duty.
Any way you cut it, you are on a journey. And you are the only one who can decide what this journey will entail. This is similar to the journey of a role playing game, except the game exists in a world of limitation, and you do not.
Our world is without limitation, without boundary, and is awaiting your commands. You have the choices; the power and the duty to create change. You are living an entire lifetime of experiences exclusive to you. You are the Captain, you are in control. Now you decide…what’s next?
FAITH
“Turbulence is a life force. It is opportunity. Let’s love turbulence and use it for change.”
“The universe is made up of stories, not atoms.”
“No matter what road I travel, I’m going home.”
My beliefs wont allow me to do what I want
Guess what, your beliefs, just like everything else about you, are your own decision. You choose your beliefs, they dont choose you. What will make you happier? It’s up to you.
“We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”
“When you have only two pennies left in the world, buy a loaf of bread with one, and a lily with the other.”
-Chinese Proverb
“In quarreling about the shadow, we often lost the substance.”
-Aesop
“At the moment you are most in awe of all there is about life that you don’t understand, you are closer to understanding it all than at any other time.”
-Jane Wagner
Spark The Flame
Spark The Flame. The Flame is within. An inner fire, that grows everytime you focus on it. This is the fire of your power, your power to affect your life and your world. Just like a physical fire, your flame affects everything it comes across, everything.
Spark The Flame, within yourself, and help to Spark the Flame in others. We are all matchstick figures, flammable to the highest degree.
Spirituality and being open your foundation
Go on the journey, what you require will come.
Shouldve followed thru with the impulse because whatever happens is gonna be good anyway as long as youre feeling good
…this is the opportunity to rise out the ashes and evolve into something newer, stronger, better for the future
When life makes all these sudden changes, it means the river is changing course, based on our thoughts energy actions. This is when we must keep positive w/faith
Keeping faith, being grateful, and righteous, will keep the circumstances resulting well, regardless of how they seem at first. They are turning the right way
You just have to keep the steadfast effort in faith, positivity, and the transformation of the circumstances will complete properly. Like caterpillar
At first things may look dire for caterpillar in that casing, but it is necessary step for evolution. The burning of all this unnecessary gunk in ur life,
…is necessary step for your evolution. Keep the faith and positivity and the transformation will complete properly at the right time for you.
“Dreaming of that place we all look for. We try to achieve. That quiet peaceful place where we feel powerful and aren’t afraid. The place where our brain is used at it’s capacity. So the potential is unlimited.
Where there is no fear.
Just love and fresh air and healthy water.
Lots of tall trees with deep mysterious shadows and beautiful moving bodies of water that teach us that life is always renewing itself.
Reminding us that change is un-avoidable. Part of growing.”
“I want, once and for all, not to know many things. Wisdom sets limits to knowledge, too.”
-Friedrich Nietzsche
“Late and soon, getting and spending, we lay waste our powers.”
-William Wordsworth
When you do not see a viable choice for yourself, ask yourself to help you decide. You are asking your subconscious, the part of the brain that is working “under the radar”, to evaluate your situation and come up with a desirable choice of action.
“When you give yourself to practice through and through, which means through and beyond feelings and thoughts, little by little you begin to allow something great to surface, something without beginning, or end. That’s as it is!”
-Jakusho Kwong
I am not alone
You can never ever, ever be completely alone, because you always have your “self”. Your “self” is your most powerful ally, and your self will never leave you. You can shape and train your self to be whoever you want.
“Life is like a game of cards. The hand that is dealt you represents determinism; the way you play it is free will.”
-Jawaharlal Nehru
“At this very moment reveal the truth!”
-Lin-chi
“From your first day at school you are cut off from life to make theories.”
-Taisen Deshimaru
It doesnt matter if a hundred, a thousand, or a million people have not accomplished what you dream of doing, they are not you. They have completely different lives, experiences, thoughts, and actions. Their shortcomings have no bearing on you, because this is your life, your story, your journey. Their story is done, yours is still being written. And you are the writer. You.
You affect everything around you, your worry increases reality of that worry.
You’re knowledge that everything is turning out great, so it is done
“The difference, is the size of the dream we can believe in, and time”
“Recognition is a 2-way success principle
When you’re rewarded for achievement, not activity, keeps you on the right track for more more achievement, you benefit
Resentment holds you back, resentment keeps you from success”
“Develop friendships + relationships with like-minded people
Without relationships with like-minded people, you will be dragged down.”
“-Dreamstealers, those who destroy
–Those who destroy, always trying to destroy those who want to create”
“Relationships is pivotal”
“Life is in the living”
“Worry: Misuse of imagination”
