Very Grateful for~

*A friendly God

*Insightful words, said by others:
*God is the friend of silence. See how nature—trees, flowers, grass—grows in silence; see the stars, the moon and the sun, how they move in silence. We need silence to be able to touch souls. Mother Teresa
*He rises by lifting others. ~Robert Ingersoll

*Whatever the present moment contains, accept it as if you had chosen it. Always work with it, not against it. Make it your friend and ally, not your enemy. This will miraculously transform your whole life. ~Eckhart Tolle
*You were born knowing how to love. At birth you instinctively reached out to be held. And you held others too, embracing their fingers. Don’t let learned fears stop you from doing what you were born to do. Love and be loved. ~Karen Salmansohn

*The trick is in what one emphasizes. We either make ourselves miserable, or we make ourselves strong. The amount of work is the same. ~Carlos Castaneda

*There is not a person alive that hasn’t had something happen that is extremely hard to get over. There is not a person alive that hasn’t gone through something hard to understand. It is OK not to understand. http://www.incourage.me/2012/08/they-will-be-comforted.html

* If anything matters then everything matters, Because you are important, everything you do is important. Every time you forgive, the universe changes, every time you reach out and touch a heart or a life, the world changes; with every act of kindness and service, seen or unseen, my purposes are accomplished and nothing will ever be the same again. ~W. Paul Young

For everything created by God is good, and nothing is to be rejected if it is received with gratitude; ~1 Timothy 4:3-5
