The Way It Is

It cannot be said that I would be better off concentrating on one thing instead of juggling all of the activities in which I am involved (I refer to them as endeavors).  When I step back and evaluate, I am happy to keep on doing what I have been.  I am at an age when a variety of activities is enjoyable.

And I truly believe that what will be, will be.  So, I've chosen endeavors to keep busy and interested while it all plays out.  I may have said this in previous posts; it is what I believe.  It is what my life experiences have taught me, i.e., have the dream and then let it come true.  In a world of possibilities, we are guided by our dreams to make the choices to realize them, even when we aren't aware of it.

The realization of dreams is not a scientific pursuit, but rather allowing it to happen, recognizing opportunities as they arise, positioning, preparing, asking, negotiating, and making the effort.  It often seems like serendipity, as with acting contacts, but it could be more than that.  

Sometimes it seems like spiritual intervention.

Pithy Comments

 

During the year, from time to time, little sayings popped into my ken.  They may be of some value to others as well.

If it is meant to be, it is.

Thy will be done.

A motto: No more I was, only I am.

Don't let your last shot influence your next.

All of life is trial and error.

Who are you? Who am I? I am he who takes care of you and me.

Confidence is the levee that protects us from the flood of discouragement.

In what I believe is not important to you, but important to me.  So, don't ask.

In what I believe is altered with experience, improving with time.

I truly accept all of myself, right now.

If it can happen, it will.

Core-spirit, third person in this being, make your presence felt. Instill in us joie de vivre for all that we do.

Replace the questions that have a 'W' with a 'T': what-that. When-then. Where-there.

We do what we can to get along in life.

"Don't push me around," she to me.  "I never would," I told her.

"I accept, I trust, I let go, I thank you, good night." Karl Jung

When alone, focus inward (on me); when not, focus outward (on others).
