Life’s Obstacles

May 15, 2018May 31, 2018Grady7 Comments

Remember, that of all the elements that comprise a human being, the most important, the most essential, the one that will sustain, transcend, overcome and vanquish obstacles is Spirit ~ Buddy Ebsen

Some see life’s obstacles as barriers. Negative energies put there purposely, by the Great Unknown, to stunt our mind, body and spirit’s growth. Perhaps we should rather see them as life’s rest stops. A time and place where we can refuel, build positive energy and think things through rationally. A mindful way of approaching solutions.

Even the Bayou Teche in flood is seemingly gentle, overflowing barriers, as it slowly snakes it’s way towards the Gulf of Mexico.

Live your Best Life

Everyone has a purpose in life and a unique talent to give to others. And when we blend this unique talent with service to others, we experience the ecstasy and exultation of own spirit, which is the ultimate goal of all goals ~ Kallam Anji Reddy

We all wonder about our purpose in life and what it is we could be doing to make a difference. There is something worthy within all of us. Something we can offer to others with very little if any sacrifice. Kindness, compassion, perhaps a shoulder to lean on. A good sense of humor to lighten someone’s day.

And, even Jolie, a scruffy and muddied Guard Mule has purpose. Imaginary Unicorn grazing in a field of dreams keeping a mindful eye on the cattle.

Conscious Spirits

Life goes on within you and without you ~ George Harrison

Spirit is everywhere. Even a ceramic cat and a winged heart of clay can breathe life into the essence of spirit. We need to be aware. We need to be conscious.
We need to be conscious spirits.

Horse Spirit

Only when you see through the eyes of the horse, can you lead the dance of the mind – Pete Spates

Animals have a way of keeping our conscience in check. That almost knowing look can penetrate deep within our human psyche.

Spirit is everywhere. Always watching.
Be mindful and travel your Road with good intention.

Respect • Kindness • Compassion

Internal Music

April 29, 2018May 31, 2018Grady10 Comments

This Internal Music, this unique sound within each of us was playing constantly when we were children. It lifted our spirits and filled us with a ‘joie de vivre’.

Sadly, all but forgotten now that we have grown into adulthood. We need to bring out the child in us. We need to revive the music inside of us.
We need to listen to each other’s songs.

Love • Spirit • Frequency

Lighted Flame

April 19, 2018May 31, 2018Grady9 Comments

At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us ~ Albert Schweitzer

It doesn’t happen very often, if ever, that someone comes along and rekindles that
spark of life energy within us. Especially when we have lived a full life and get to
a point where we feel that perhaps we have experienced all that we deserve in this
illusion called ‘Life’. So, when that someone appears, seemingly out of nowhere,
and shakes things up a bit. Embrace and Engage.

Authentic Truth

April 14, 2018May 31, 2018Grady5 Comments

The authentic true self that we recognize when we look at ourselves in a mirror. Those first moments as a young child when we see our reflection and recognize the person staring out at us. The moment when we look into those eyes, into that conscience, and realize that no matter how many stories become fabricated fragments of ourselves over time.. eventually our authentic truth will balance everything out.
