<< OHANA means family. Family means nobody gets left behind or forgotten. - Lilo & Stitch >>
' Rumi’s answer to questions asked by a disciple.
He replied with a beautiful answer:
What is Poison?
Anything which is more than our necessity is Poison. It may be Power, Wealth, Hunger, Ego, Greed, Laziness, Love, Ambition, Hate or anything.
What is fear?
Non-acceptance of uncertainty.
If we accept that uncertainty, it becomes adventure.
What is envy?
Non-acceptance of good in others. If we accept that good, it becomes inspiration.
What is Anger?
Non-acceptance of things which are beyond our control. If we accept, it becomes tolerance.
What is hatred?
Non-acceptance of a person as he is. If we accept person unconditionally, it becomes love. '
' There are times and seasons when we feel stuck. We experience no forward motion and wonder if we should abort our dreams. Life is at a standstill, and our spiritual barrenness seems overwhelming. The more we focus on what isn’t happening, the greater the sense of heaviness we feel. Before we know it, we’ve lost our song.
Worship isn’t contingent upon circumstances, but it does greatly affect them and gives proper perspective. It seems almost cruel to tell someone to rejoice when they are feeling the pain of barrenness. But faith knows how to find its song. Faith sees ahead and believes the seeds of his Word, implanted in the heart, will take root and produce fruit. So we sing. We rejoice in our glorious future and water the dry ground of past disappointments with tears of worship. Our time will come.
Father, when things don’t happen the way I expect, I will worship. When doors of opportunity slam in my face, I will trust you to open a better door, and I will worship. When I feel like I’m being pulled back, I’ll remember it’s only because you’re stretching the slingshot closer to your heart before launching it. And I will worship. '
From "The Vision" by Dr Brian Simmons and Gretchen Murerodriguez
' People from a planet without flowers would think we must be mad with joy the whole time to have such things about us. - by Iris Murdoch '
Acceptance is simply love in practice. When you love, you accept, when you lack love, you judge.
Never force anything,
The worst distance between two people is misunderstanding.
"Only love gives us a taste of eternity."
