And so, I Blog!!

Soooo, everybody is blogging except for Moi? Is this the newest form of writing? Are we headed towards the reality of the movie "Fahrenheit 451 "? What a tragedy that would be!! I have tried Twitter~for about 48 hours ,not for me at all! I do Facebook, but also find it to be truly surfacy and a bit of a waste of my time. I like to write, not twit or mindlessly comment. So, I guess I will. :) Here I will share on the most precious thing in my life, my recovery and my spiritual journey. If my only audience is that of the ether, that will be good enough ... for I write not to be read, but because I am called to write!!! And so, I blog!!
I will begin with the daily readings from the book:

A Grateful Heart ~ 365 ways to give thanks at mealtime edited by MJ Ryan
The Winter Prayers began on the first day of winter ~ so I am begining there. The winter prayers begin with this thought:
A thankful soul is thankful under all circumstances, a complaining soul complains even if he lives in paradise. -BAHA'U'LLAH
Please join me in thought-provoking conversaton! Namaste' Cate

Peace to all you encounter


Everyone has a spirit that can be refined, a body that
can be trained in some manner, a suitable path to
follow.  You are here for no other purpose than to realize
your inner divinity and manifest your innate enlightenment.
Foster peace in your own life and apply the Art
of peace to all you encounter.
                                           - Morihei  Ueshiba

Hmmmm...apply the art of peace to all you encounter ... pretty easy for those who are easy to deal with and fun to encounter.  It is a much bigger challenge within those encounters where my buttons keep getting pushed or someone repeatedly throws me under the bus!  What a great practice this is to utilize during these days of lent!!  Imagine how this world could be if we ALL adopted this practice during these weeks of lent .... I think we would discover world peace.
Let there be peace on earth ...... cate
