Mind Your Own Business!


Isn’t it fun to allow ourselves to wander uninvited, into the myriad of issues and problems that are created in the lives of those around us?
In fact if we don’t have enough friends and family available to intercede with, we can turn to any number of electronic means to push our nose into other peoples stuff.
And if that doesn’t work we can actually make up thoughts within our mind that would create situations where we could jump in and offer our opinion.
We can even go back in our memories and recall times when we were able to step into a situation and offer our “valued” opinion!
Usually during these events we think we have saved the day and offered up solutions, recommendations, remedies or just stirred the pot in some way.
What we are actually doing is an act of avoidance!
Our unwillingness to turn the spotlight on ourselves is often the reason why we are compelled to interfere in the lives of others.
The fact that we recognize things in other people’s lives should act as a reflection of the problems in our own.
What you seek to “fix” in someone else’s situation is a direct reflection of an outstanding issue in your own life!
The words “Mind Your Own Business” might better read, observe the “Business of Your Own Mind”

Sparkle!


Shift your attention from the ordinary toward the difference!
See what is missing in the picture!
Look for the sparkle!
In the blandness of daily life we often see all the burden we are carrying,
And pass by the beauty.
In every moment there is a sparkle, a shiny object or a brightness.
Seek that point, find the sparkle.
Allow yourself to be drawn toward the source.
Feel gratitude and you will begin to see the sparkle intensify.
Allow the sparkle to grow and it will become YOU!
In all darkness there is a bright spot.
Focus your attention upon it and see the sparkle return to your whole life!
YOU are the sparkle in the world today.
Shine brightly!
Love Papa.

Laughter


Laugh often, Laugh hard & Laugh loud!
Wiggle your toes in the sand!
Blow bubbles in the water!
Play hide and seek with your friends!
Scratch when you have an itch!
Listen to Nature!
Play Peek a Boo with babies!
Fart when you need to!
Read a good book!
Seek quiet!
Take deep breaths!
Touch someone you love!
Listen to music that you can Feel!
Stare at the stars at night and imagine??
Enjoy the changing seasons!
Ponder, just ponder................ What Is!
And most of all don’t take yourself too seriously; after all.........You’re only human!
And Amazing!
Love Papa.

Add Love!


If you are not sure if you are asking for what you do want or for what you do not want, just add Love to your asking.
A simple test is to add Love to either statement and it becomes very clear.
“ I Love not to catch that cold!” sounds very different than “I Love to have a healthy body”
“ I Love not to be broke!” vs “I Love to have plenty of money!”
“ I Love to have no more War!” vs “ I Love Peace!”
“ I Love not to be lonely!” vs “I Love having wonderful relationships in my life!”
Adding Love to your Asking directs your focus on what you really want and draws it toward you instantly.
“I Love having you in my life!”
Love Papa

Blossom!


You can’t see exactly where it comes from.
You can’t really hear it.
It just seems to show up one day.
Suddenly as if from nowhere,
A burst of colour.
A scent upon the air.
And a freshness of new beginnings.
To experience all the majesty of the Universe.
You need only to observe the blossom of a flower!
For within that amazing explosion of new birth is contained the miracle of who you are and why you are here.
Seek comfort knowing that you are connected to the same source that brings such beauty to our world.
Love Papa.

Set It Down!


STOP!
Set it down.
Take a deep breath.
Straighten your back.
Rub your sore shoulders.
Do a couple of stretches.
Shake it off.
Relax for a minute.
Carrying the weight of the world around can be a tedious job.
It’s good to set it down and take a break once in a while!
Of course, you could always choose not to pick it up again!
But I’ll leave that up to you!
Love Papa.
