"THE INVARIABLE MARK OF WISDOM
IS TO SEE THE MIRACULOUS IN THE COMMON."

RALPH WALDO EMERSON

 

Have you ever heard, “There is nothing new under the sun?” If that were true how boring and mundane life would be. Look at the sunset tonight or the sunrise tomorrow and see its uniqueness. Has there ever been one exactly like this one? I doubt it. Closely observe the sky; clouds, trees, flowers, plants and view the horizon as well as your city skyline. They never appear the same and everything around you is in the process of growing or dying. So start each day not as another boring drudgery, but rather as an opportunity to observe, learn, grow and be happy. Embrace life’s simple pleasures with all of its mystery and majesty. Teach yourself to be exuberant, joy-filled, grateful and to appreciate all the abundance of blessings you have given. Gratitude is the key to gaining insight and wisdom. What a beautiful day it is!

 

RANDOM REFLECTIONS

•   Practice emptying your mind of all unhealthy attitudes.
•    Think health, practice health, pray health.
•    When your door of happiness closes, another opens.
              However, often times you look too long at the closed door.
•    For whatever you face each day, the Lord promises to supply
  the needed strength. You only need to ask.
