PONDER THESE THINGS
..
A New Relationship with Time
(An excerpt from Dreams Are Whispers from the Soul)
..
Probably no other complaint is voiced more often than not having enough time.
“I don’t have time to pursue my dreams or to even know what my dreams are. I don’t have time for me, for my family and friends. Basically, I don’t have time to live my life.”
..
Passion is the ultimate time management tool for two reasons. First, when you are doing what you love, who cares about time? When you are with someone special, or listening to a great piece of music, or painting or volunteering, doesn’t time just fly by? Second, when you are doing what you love it often gets done faster.
..
The way we spend our time is the way we spend our lives. Can you slow down enough to get “in synch” with life, nature, and most importantly, yourself? Tune in to your rhythm and natural pulse. Take off your watch and give yourself a day off. Eat when you’re hungry and sleep when you’re tired so you can discover who you are, what you need and what works best for you.
..
Make a date with yourself, every day if possible. Even if for only a half hour, carving out time for you is a great act of generosity. Your work can usually wait a half hour, but your soul can’t.
..
Whether we like it or not, the clock keeps ticking so live fully, every single second of every single day.
..
Learn the true joy of doing less and having more as you experience each day as priceless. Fill your life

From: The Heart of a Teacher
“A Parent’s Note to a Teacher”
by Anonymous..I’m the voice of a grateful parent
whose child was in your class…
the one who needed help to find his way
You’ve been a special blessing
as you helped my child succeed
and I’m thankful for the part you had to play
You gave him so much more
than just the lessons in the books
you gave him wings…so he could learn to fly
You ignited a flame within his soul
a passion to learn and grow…
to never give up and always be willing to try
Your encouragement inspired him
and your kindness was so real
but the thing that thrills my heart the most is this…

I’m not sure I can always tell love from passion. One father said of
his teenaged son, “I don’t know if he’s in love or in heat!” What
teenager would know? Besides, feelings of attraction can change more
quickly than a pouty expression.But love, in its truest form, is greater than feelings. It is as much
a decision as it is a feeling.Love is what Mr. and Mrs. Strauss shared. Mrs. Isadore Strauss was one
of the few first class women passengers to go down with the Titanic in

If you’ve ever struggled making the right decision, you may appreciate
this story:
A young man seemed to take an unusually long time to place his order
at the flower shop. When the clerk asked how she could help, he
explained that his girlfriend was turning 19 and he couldn’t decide
whether to give her a dozen roses or 19 roses — one for each year of
her life.
The woman put aside her business judgment and advised, “She may be
your 19-year-old girlfriend now, but someday she could be your
50-year-old wife.”
The young man bought a dozen roses. He made his decision from both his
head and his heart.

The Consequences You Sow
Action And Effect
..
All motive and action affects the cosmos in some way. The principle of cause and effect is the truth that allows us to change ourselves and the world around us for the better. However, this same universal law is also at work when change is not at the forefront of our minds. Our intentions flow forever outward in the form of energy, affecting both the people closest to us and billions of individuals we will likely never meet. For this reason, we should strive always to speak, think, and behave with great thoughtfulness and compassion. The virtues we choose to embody can inspire joy and integrity in the lives of countless people, whether we touch their existence directly or not.
