“Thought is pure energy. Every thought you have, have ever had, and ever will have is creative. The energy of your thought never ever dies. Ever. It leaves your being and heads out into the universe, extending forever. A thought is forever.” ~ Neale Donald Walsch, Conversations with God One single thought doesn’t carry…
“Many of life’s failures are people who did not realize how close they were to success when they gave up.” ~ Thomas Edison You know, my friend, another of his famous quotes is, “I start where the last man left off.” Discouragement hits hard at the 11th hour. It’s almost like its testing your desire, like…
“I am a lover of what is, not because I’m a spiritual person, but because it hurts when I argue with reality. We can know that reality is good just as it is, because when we argue with it, we experience tension and frustration. We don’t feel natural or balanced. When we stop opposing reality,…

“Don’t believe what your eyes are telling you. All they show is limitation. Look with your understanding.
