journey: WHY SHOULD WE ASK QUESTIONS
- 10/12/14 09:41 AM
Because there are quite a few answers just wanting to join you but they are awaiting a personal invitation. The question is just that. An invitation for "more" to come your way and enhance, clarify, support, nurture and help the inquirer as they see fit to trigger it all. The system of asking and yearning works so well and we already come pre-programmed with it in us
HOW WE GOT STARTED
All that is needed is a good slap on the back when we first come into the world and from there, we make noise to let it be known that we are … (8 comments)

journey: MASTERY OF LIFE
- 08/20/14 07:49 AM
When you understand how something works, you now own that understanding. When you can explain that understanding to someone else and they get it, you have mastered that understanding. When you were a child, you thought and acted as a child could, would and should. Now, as an adult more is required and rightfully so. There is much to be done and experienced
KIDS RULE NOW AND FOREVER
Only now, the little child in you can travel safer and have more fun because they now have not only an adult protector, but a built-in grown friend, an older brother or sister if you … (0 comments)

journey: IF NOT CAREFUL THIS WILL PASS YOU BY
- 06/29/14 06:40 AM
LIFE...it is not to be wasted or taken for granted. It remains a host and we are its guests for such a short time too. The brevity of life doesn't make itself known until it does and then one wonders so many things. If we are in our flow, making use of our talents, skills, abilities and gifts, life then has special meaning
EARTH BOASTS OF IT
LIFE...It gives unconditionally non-stop, randomly and generously all over the planet earth. From images that are made in God (us) to things so small they testify to wonder and mystery by reason of us knowing they are there … (5 comments)

journey: THIS SUBJECT NEVER GOES AWAY part 2
- 06/16/14 04:53 AM
In part one, we explore the questions of identity and purpose as well as personal portions and their foundations which are to be given to us all during our brief stay here and beyond too. Part one explains: Each one of us is unique and most welcomed and wanted as evidenced by the fact that you wouldn't be here if it was not so
IF YOU WANT THIS
Below are some useful aids and guides for.... if and when you may decide to visit with this most prominent, personal and pleasant although mysterious subject matter. By the way, it is presented as a mystery to … (0 comments)

journey: THIS SUBJECT NEVER GOES AWAY part 1
- 06/16/14 04:43 AM
What is our purpose? Why are we here? Not as a collective group but as individuals. No two of us are alike and this can and has been been going on for centuries. Add to that that no two journeys, episodes, stories or adventures are alike or the same but similar and you have a genuine mystery
R.S.V.P. ?
What then is our specific individual purpose? Why me here?.. is what you will and should ask. Do you make a difference by being here? If gone, will your absence be felt? While here, are you contributing to a personal cause and affect that benefits you and all … (2 comments)

journey: BANKRUPTCY WORKS FOR STARTING OVER
- 06/12/14 11:52 PM
There is a stigma associated with this when I was was growing up and throughout most of my life. It means you failed, and others used to treat failure like a disease and not want to go near anyone who went bankrupt. People thought the worst of you and even thought it appropriate to gossip about it too
THE WAY OUT...LITERALLY
Over the last several years, that has been watered down quite a bit and the stigma is gone. WHY? HOW? Because so many were forced into it during this last vicious Real Estate cycle and economic downturn that the only way out … (9 comments)

journey: BY NOW I KNOW
- 04/19/14 04:06 AM
If you live long enough, you know things. If you do something over and over again, you end up knowing something about it. Experience is good and lots of experience makes you better and rounds off the edges...Doesn't matter what the subject is either
FIRST OF ALL...
I was discussing generational dynamics the other day and the third generation is missing in lots of circumstances. Let me be clear. The first generation became the second and then the third. You see they went first just like everyone before them and learned and experimented with life every which way. They got on first...if you will
THE FIRST BECOMES SECOND...
Then, … (20 comments)

journey: WE ALL GOT A LIFE SENTENCE NOW TO LIVE IT
- 11/24/13 07:23 AM
All though-out our history, mankind has come against some formidable circumstances that if handled correctly end in a lesson of perseverance and reward. We know that you you cannot make a gain unless you take a risk, but some people have had circumstances thrust on them and there is growth but not for asking....What happens is different for all of us too
CHALLENGES ARE GROWTH FOOD
People are not born great... they live great. Lincoln was deeply concerned about winning his election and becoming President. WHY? He had some very difficult decisions ahead of him and he was a realist. His … (4 comments)

journey: LIFE IS FREE BUT WITH A CATCH TO IT
- 09/14/13 12:55 AM
You must live your life. Not just exist but live it fully as a form of saying thank you to the one who set it all up. Then, another requirement comes along. You must live it a certain way. No lying, cheating, stealing, hurting others or forgetting how you got here which remains the most important bit of information to have
MIND YOUR BUSINESS
Everyone who has ever lived or lives now will ponder about those that lived and went and perhaps those to come at some point in their journey. However, you always come back to your own life. That … (9 comments)

journey: THE UNIVERSE KEEPS SCORE
- 09/05/13 06:23 AM
That frees us up to play the life game and to play it better and to create other opportunities all the while we are here. We don't have to remember or think things through excessively, that is all taken care of on a level unknown to us but ever present. Intention plays a big part in this score keeping as well as motives do..Whatever is done and why is faithfully recorded
THAT'S WHAT HAPPENED
How? You lived it and that is what happened. No need to document it or modify it. It is called reality and it was going on here long before … (9 comments)

journey: JUST ASK THE LONELY ASK ME I AM THE LONELIEST ONE YOU'LL EVER SEE
- 06/08/13 04:34 AM
Many years ago when songs really meant something people would play them to enjoy getting in touch with their own feelings whether they were happy, sad or even unsure. Whatever those reasons were, the songs of your choice delivered and as a result many played the songs over and over again as part of their reward or hope depending on their need
MOTOWN ALWAYS DELIVERED
One very potent song that applies to everyone everywhere at some point in their lives and for others it applies for them quite a few times in their life is JUST ASK THE LONELY by the … (8 comments)

journey: DONT PLAY HIDE AND SEEK WITH LIFE BE FOUND
- 05/04/13 11:40 PM
Remember the game...? Sure you do. A most excellent adventure and it costs nothing. The thrill of trying to hide while someone is counting down. The additional thrill of staying still and not attracting any attention. Finally, the seeker gives up and you have won the game only you don't know it. You hid so well, no one can find you
WHERE WERE YOU....? WE LEFT WITHOUT YOU
So it is with life. To hold things in, to go into yourself and...... not come back is..... not a good journey.
You don't get to get out there and experience life to … (14 comments)

journey: HERE IS A DAY SPEND IT WISELY
- 04/25/13 11:51 PM
Everyday is a good day. Who is telling you otherwise..? What makes you think that there is more to the day that the day itself..? Look how it starts for most of us. You wake up in the morning and THE DAY is already waiting you. What a fantastic premise or gift to give someone. A DAY! Here's a day for you to spend any way you want. A whole day...
WHAT IT REALLY MEANS TO WAKE UP IN THE MORNING.....
I suspect that the meaning of receiving the day has been lost. Perhaps we skip the appreciation part. The part … (8 comments)

journey: BELIEVING WITHOUT SEEING IS CALLED
- 04/24/13 07:21 AM
It is called faith which simply put is to believe without seeing. Believe what you may ask? Life is a mystery and we keep trying to make it as predictable as possible. Why not just live it? Those that succeed in making life into a formula are not happy with the results. I know of people who have made a good living through traditional means but remain unhappy and not fulfilled.
LIFE IS MORE THAN SURVIVAL
They may have succeeded in maintaining a safe and reliable life with the traditional food, shelter and clothing in place, but remain poor in other … (3 comments)

journey: PEARLS SERIES BOOKS ON LIFE AND LOVE
- 03/12/13 12:42 AM
When a baby goat is born, it really does not need to know very much more than it already knows. Its life will be a simple one of eating, sleeping, mating, and repeating. But mankind has a different destiny. We are commanded to seek, investigate, explore, ask, knock, want, find and pursue all things until we arrive to our answers. Those answers are different for each one of us...
FLUSH OUT THE OLD..MAKE ROOM FOR THE NEW
Meanwhile, another dynamic is at work too. We have picked up some things along the way that we don't need, that don't benefit us, … (7 comments)

journey: PASS THE BATON OF LIFE TO THE NEXT PERSON
- 04/05/12 12:12 AM
Thanks to two lovely fine ActiveRain ladies Lottie Kendall and Mary Stewart for emphasizing something in one of my posts.The passing of the baton. PAUSE here. Let this sink in. Every one of us has been invited here to participate anyway we see fit with only 2 simple rules. Mind the one who sent you here and honor those all around you
YOUR BATON
While you are doing that correctly, your life baton is in your hands. It is carried with you wherever you go. It is who you really are, what you believe in and how you go about practicing and sharing your … (11 comments)

journey: EMULATING SUCCESSFUL PEOPLE IS A START TO FINDING "YOU"
- 03/02/12 12:27 AM
It will get you started and may even prime the SUCCESS pump. But for the long haul, one must discover their own treasure chest within themselves. That is your guaranteed ticket to everything you do. After that, learning how to use and spend those inner gifts leads to describing and defining your life journey. YOU then discover YOU.
MANY PARTS IN YOURSELF TO CULTIVATE AND DEVELOP
Plant and work many different fields. Human beings are complex machines consisting of many parts that all work together so well. Many of what makes us tick is invisible like our thoughts, emotions, soul, heart and mind. … (0 comments)

journey: ALL OF US ARE AUTHORS EVEN BEST SELLERS BUT YOU GOT TO PARTICIPATE
- 03/01/12 08:43 AM
Did you know that all of us are AUTHORS? Make no mistake, your life story is being written every day by YOU and YOU have the starring role in it. Will it be a page turner? Will it have chapters like, love, service, adventure, mystery, humility, mercy, charity, and sacrifice? Make it a book that someone can't put down
RESEARCH AND MATERIALS
Write it one moment at a time. Relish the content and be generous with the contributions. Honesty, sincerity and humility will all help make it a best seller. Gather your research going from one situation to another, one person … (5 comments)

journey: LIFE INVITES US TO ADVENTURE EXPLORE & PARTICIPATE I ACCEPT
- 02/26/12 02:16 AM
In the world of yes or no, where simplicity and honesty reside, if you ask the question; Is life good?....the answer can only be yes. Our circumstances that change from day to day, week to week or even yearly should not change this answer in any way.
CHALLENGES COME AND GO
Many of us face challenging obstacles and new growth that we didn't see coming or that appear to be overwhelming. Some of us worry and think way too much into the future. While it is wise to be aware of what is coming up and its consequences, let us not … (8 comments)

journey: FRIDAY OR EYE DAY OBSERVING AND RECEIVING
- 01/06/12 05:13 AM
Take a moment right now for instance to just come out of your thoughts and observe what is going on around you. Just become aware of all of it as well as your presence in it. What you are seeing and hearing is always there, it is us that comes and goes catching the mind and emotions express. There is more to life than going from thought to thought
JUST LOOK AROUND FOR A MOMENT
In fact, I am going to make this post short, sweet and to the point so that you can get back to your observation post. Just … (2 comments)
