SO YOU GOT A PROBLEM, NOW WHAT

What a beautiful world we have for us to live in and enjoy. No man, woman, or child will ever live long enough to see and experience all the wonders that lie before us. It would benefit all of us to not waste much time worrying about our "problems" since that would take away precious time we have to experience the "good" things. But it seems that too many times we had rather focus on the problems thereby wasting valuable moments. I would like to share with you a quote from Richard Bach"s book title "ILLUSIONS".


"There is no such thing as a problem without a gift for you in its hands. You seek problems because you need their gifts."


 I full heartedly agree with that! It has been my personal experience to see that each problem I have had an encounter with has only served to make me take an honest look within. And by doing that it has helped me to grow in Spirit and hopefully to become a better person. I realize all of us have many difficult times in our lives. There is just no way to prevent those problems that life gives us. But if we honestly try to take each event and use it to look at ourselves, I feel that will eventually make us see the truth that a problem is indeed our friend. With that being said, I do hope all the problems you have to face will be few. And when faced with one, may you take a moment or two and look deeply within  and find the "gift" that life has given you. May your love light shine brightly and gently touch everyone that you meet along the way!

Dear brother; a good reminder for us, especially when the poo furiously arrives from the fan blades. All too often, we have a difficult time stepping far enough back from chaos to enable our vision to focus on the lesson being offered.

Even if we find ourselves unable to bring peace to the moments of tragedy, perhaps when waters calm we might later seek to discover the fruit bourne from the tree of despair.

Always a pleasure to enjoy your messages Ron, enjoy the weekend.

In Lak' ech, prosper with peace... seek knowledge from chaos...
