Wednesday Wisdom

Seed tomorrow with wise determination today

Off the ship and onto the island, which means we now have internet access. Although this is late, it feels good to connect with you!  This morning, as we worked out in the fitness center, this post stared at us with every step:

Determination is doing what needs to be done, even when you don’t feel like it.

So often, I simply don’t feel like it!  You too? Obviously, to move forward, the discipline of determination is a crucial attribute to be aware of and to master!

 

Life is calling . . .  Today’s the day . . . Make this moment matter!!

Wednesday Wisdom

Seed tomorrow with wise building today

The story of our home renovation continues. Actually, the project will take months. So, I promise not to share every lesson I learn in the process; however, this one gives me energy as I tear down walls, rip up carpet and continuously paint:

Whatever good things we build end up building us.   ~ Jim Rohn

Building occurs every day of our lives.  It makes sense to ask what we’re in the middle of constructing.

PS: Curt and I will be at sea next week, with no internet.  It’ll be a relaxing Wednesday; however, I’ll miss communicating with you!

Seed tomorrow with wise work today

Sunday, in church with our grandsons in NYC, we experienced a magnificent orchestra playing heavenly music, welcoming members who made us feel comfortable, and an eloquently created and delivered sermon. A great way to begin the week!  On the first page of the church paper I read:

 Life goes rotten without work . . . and yet, life stifles and dies when work is soulless.

~ Albert Camus

The pastor spoke of intentional daily activities done with our minds and hands as Divine acts that have the ability to create a better city for all. Spiritually, there is nothing neutral about our work. As I reflect upon his insight, it feels like formless chaos easily dances in our lives when we’re not intentional. Let deliberate, purposeful actions waltz through our days!

Wednesday Wisdom

Seed tomorrow with wise silence today

Easter Sunday, I was reminded of a lesson I acquired decades ago. Overhearing a conversation about the fact that I was studying self-hypnosis because meditation was challenging, an elder in the church didn’t hesitate to offer her opinion.

She asked, So, my dear, how do you pray? My response: Our Father who art in . . . couldn’t you have been there yesterday before I opened my mouth . . . please send me patience! To which she responded, So . . . you do all the talking?  Where’s the space for listening?

I’ve since learned that the Divine is harder to miss in the silence.
