A good video

From the infamous Dr. Seuss:

Be who you are and say what you feel, because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

I believe that this world is our playground; so I try not to take it too seriously. I remind myself that I am in this world, but my spirit is not of this world. Let's Play!

My philosophy is to accept people as they are - they have their reasons for being who they are.

Love Thy Neighbor As Thyself - the ancients taught that this was the most important law in all of the Hebrew Bible. If you obey this commandment, you have obeyed them all.

I live by these words.

I begin each day with an intention of adhering to a Pythagorical philosophy based upon Truth, Beauty and Good. Pythagorus believed that we are made up of many parts and the parts we feed become dominant within us. The more "good" I purvey the closer I will be to "the truth" and the greater degree of "
"beauty" I will be able to witness. I often fail in this endeavor, however it is progress not perfection. Ciao!

Love that!

Making sure that I am alway IN Truth and Integrity. If I walk off the path of truth and integrity then I start feeling uncomfortable in my mind and my body. I'll ruminate about what I said, did, didn't do, could have done, and my body will feel start feeling tense or stressed out in some way. That's why I ensure that I do all I possibly can to BE in Truth and Integrity.

If I make a mistake and walk off the path even in a minor way, I have to correct it. My incentive is to feel better myself, and to also make the world a better place. However, the latter goal is sometimes harder to attain, because people have their own fears, rules, history, etc. Then I just do my best to communicate my views and ideas for solutions, and then let it go to the Universe to correct in it's own way and time.

Unconditional love is the highest goal and noblest achievement possible.

Just be yourself and be honest with yourself - it has to start with you, if you wish to hand it to others.

Ever notice how standing in rushing waters takes a lot of effort? It may feel safer than letting the river of life take us where it will, but if we are too stiff and set in our ways then we run the risk of missing out on happiness. Who knows it may be waiting for us downstream in a calm stretch. We're not being pasive if we go with the flow---we're being willing, accepting everything that life presents us with. We'll probably encounter obstacles, but if we stay flexible we will pass around the rocks by way of least resistance. I'm not saying you won't at times have to stand up and fight your way through the rapids--you will, but it's nice to know that you don't always have to. Sometimes "Gentleness prevails over hardness" which is a mantra for happiness in the Taoist philosophy.

My philosophy is:
Live from the very center of the heart of your being. Never surrender your ability to trust.
Creating your life is a dance; take a step forward, surrender, take a step forward, surrender and allow for the possibilty that te dreams you are persuing could exceed your expectations (short version: always leave room for more.) And finally: Even with all of it's warts, life on Earth is worth more than the price of admission.

My philosophy could depend on the moment you ask me the question, but for now, it's all about going with the flow...living life on life's terms. I find that when I am struggling or "holding on", it's me trying to control a situation or circumstance that I have no control over to begin with. When I let go, surrender, the pressure is off and I can simply be of service to myself, others and my world. There is no greater purpose than that!
