Finding Real Peace

I love the peace that I have found.

Everyone I know loves the peace they have found.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, loves the peace they have found.

——————

Peace is a normal state of mind.

When we don’t have it, we naturally gravitate toward it.

We can tell the difference between a distraction and real peace.

We can tell the different between an intentional disruption and a deeply peaceful solution.

Many of us find ourselves in a place of constant media harassment.

The solution to find peace is to take the time we need to reestablish our normal sense of life.

Normally, we are not confused or in a hurry.

When we plan our day and collect the things we need, we have a more peaceful day.

When we find ourselves getting caught up in an emotional issue, no matter how valid, we need to reestablish our peace of mind in order to take meaningful and effective action.

I love finding my peace.

I feel like myself.

I have time to express my inspiration and art.

Everything is where it needs to be in order for me to work.

I am able to think clearly and calmly.

I am able to maintain my high ideals and integrity.

I know to turn away from anything which causes self-doubt or confusion in any other way.

I know what my peace feels like and I am fully committed to it.

Service First

Service is the way to reach your goal.

When you are looking to increase, choose service as your first step.

That opens the flow of ideas and will attract what you need.

Service is the first step towards prosperity.

By it, you demonstrate your abundance and more flows to you.

If your goal is merely self-interested increase, I cannot help you.

The way that abundance is manifesting itself for me is through service.

Connections are forming, interest is being demonstrated, support is during in.

I am getting a good response to my offerings by starting with service first.

Increase and abundance are tied to unselfishness and generosity, despite the egregious practices we sometimes see in politics and the marketplace.

Serving the humblest needs sets everyone free.

Witness the effects of microcredit, through Grameen Bank, which loans $2.5 billion yearly to millions of customers in loans of less and $1,000.00.

Millions of women entrepreneurs have found their way out of poverty through the insight and compassion of the banks found, Muhammed Yunus, a Pulitzer Prize winner in economics.

The repayment rate is 99%, for a very strong financial return.

When we, too, find a need and address it, we get a boost from doing good, and then we, too, will do well.

Service is the first goal to reap prosperity.

Commitment to Integrity

I breathe in to my commitment to integrity.

Everyone I know breathes in to their commitment to integrity.

Everyone I don’t even know, all over the planet, breathes in to their commitment to integrity.

—————-

The commitment to integrity uplifts everyone who practices it.

It breathes a new life of purity into the community.

It cleanses the atmosphere of fear and doubt.

It values everyone in their desire to live honestly.

It sets up relationships which are trustworthy.

It follows through on commitments.

It values all parties in business.

It does not seek to undermine.

It does not seek a selfish advantage.

It ensures that all parties benefit well.

It creates a sense peace and security in all transactions through mutual trust.

It assures success.

It brings out the best in each member.

Integrity creates a distinctive uplifting atmosphere.

When you feel it, you experience peace and happiness.

Underlying Peace

Feel the deep underlying peace of the day.

The rhythm of the universe unfolds as the light distributes itself around the planet.

The oceans carry the immense power of their currents.

Windstreams above the earth create gigantic energies.

We, too, infuse the earth with our presence.

What energies are we stewarding?

Can we direct them toward good for everyone?

The solutions are here, in the rhythm of the Universe as it passes around and through us.

Only our attitudes direct it.

Shall we see beyond the old patterns and embrace infinity for all?

Then mental energies will turn in that direction and seek and find solutions.

Shall we treat everyone as deserving and valued?

Then resources will appear in ways to serve universally.

Shall we let go of our own individual viewpoints and experiences in order to accommodate an unlimited way?

Then, we shall be a part of the underlying and peace and provision for all.

A Good Cause

While it is vital to stay your own course, it is important to support a good cause.

You are helping create and sustain the atmosphere around you by what you support.

Societal practices of inclusion enrich the community.

Creating safe places for all parts of society is important.

Nurturing all elements of society will enable everyone to prosper.

As we help to uplift others, they are empowered to give back.

The community gains strength from everyone’s contribution.

We gain insight into the weak practices of society and can redesign them so that we do not lose or marginalize people.

There are many ways that everyone can contribute to the community.

It is up to us to redesign our education and social services so that we strengthen the areas in which our society is weak.

We can consciously cultivate the idea that everyone is precious.

We can begin by realizing that everyone has a vital and important place in our society.

We can design our culture and our communities to incorporate ways for everyone to contribute.

We can utilize the most valuable resources we have, the creative mind of each person, in a way which allows them to support the community.

Our public policy can reflect our attitude and we can employ the valued abilities of each person.

Purpose From Within

We are given our identity by the power of our Creator.

Our purpose is part of that gift.

When we discover our individuality, we unite with our purpose.

All the guidance we need to carry out our purpose comes from within.

The more we practice it, the more readily we experience the connection within.

We are led to resources and how to use them most effectively.

We feel the next step to take.

We sense where to go to present our art.

People feel the power of our message.

The are moved by it on a deep level.

Everything, all the passion, all the purpose, all the understanding we have put into our art reaches the viewer.

There is a connection which uplifts as it communicates.

Communicating our message is our purpose.

Creating the connection is how we do it.

To Promote the General Welfare

I offer a proposition:  

That businesses which operate in the US are required to support the principles of The Constitution.

The principle which I am considering is the requirement that a business “promote the general welfare”.

This means that businesses would not have tax advantages, but rather that they were structured to carry tax obligations in order “to promote the general welfare”.

Businesses would not be allowed to pollute the air, water or land because it would not “promote the general welfare”.

Businesses would be structured in ways which would benefit, and not hurt, their employees in order “to promote the general welfare”.

Businesses would practice good stewardship and get their raw materials from local sources in order “to promote the general welfare”.

Insurance practices would “promote the general welfare”.

Education would “promote the general welfare” and provide up to date practices which are known to be good for children.

There would not be a competition for the lowest bidder and lowest grade materials and meaningless jobs.

The whole national attitude would be one of compassion and respect for citizens, not consumers.

Laws would protect against greed and, therefore, its consequences.

There are lots of solutions when the goal is “to promote the general welfare.”
