Namasté!
Good afternoon,
Here it is another day. I am pleased to have awaken to this day, another week and another part of all life. Although I am a little sad or maybe more than sad because, can you believe this, a Betta fish which I have had for over a year made its transition today. I had it in a little 2 1/2 gallon tank and it got very cold last night for the first time this year. I think he was in shock and the water was cold. I tried to right away change the water and put in some warmer, but I think it was just too much of a stress issue for the little guy. Funny how we get so attached to things in our lives. And when they go away, it makes us feel very uneasy. I guess it is truly appropriate to say it is really a great blessing to know that all of everything is created by the same infinite Spirit that is in you, me and every single being living on this great Mother Earth. I was truly blessed as well to have this little creature of beauty grant me and those who gazed at him with absolute wonder. I know I gave him the best that life could have offered as well, seeing him every morning looking at me to feed him and it was almost as if he was waving his little fins to get my attention. Those memories are precious and I was truly blessed. Today, never ever doubt within yourself that you are not good enough, you don't deserve the things you want or need, you are not loved, you are unworthy of complete health, so on and so on. Even a little fish can show love in his own little fish way. And remind us that we are truly all connected in this vast universe. So I tell you now, STOP! Put good thoughts into the Universe. It has to respond only to your true thoughts. Today know that you are deserving and give gratitude for every single thing in your life. Even little fishies! Continue always to look for the good in everything that comes into your life. Really, there is only good. Of course, at certain moments we may think differently. But this is our human emotions and experiences that clouds our true spiritual make-up. Practice gratitude and Love in all things. You will I guarantee, be full of energy and brilliance and understanding of life itself. Now my friend, breathe, smile and say thank you to your special Angels, Guides, God, Guru, Master, Mother/Father and any entity you desire. I know I have, and continue to. Even for the nurturing of my little friend and him nurturing me too. So the circle of life continues. For it is indeed good, it is indeed life! Have a great day and a great week.
In loving white light, my faith, love and magik...
Blessed be always,
~dyved...

TREATMENT / PRAYER
"Today I move into active choice in my thinking. I joyfully exchange old beliefs of lack and limitation for an expanded belief of my oneness with God, the source and substance of all my good. I bask in the bounty of love that this awareness reveals within and around me."

Whether or not you care, lilacs will continue to bloom, and so will violets and orchids. Your apathy will not prevent the plum, pomegranate, or grape from ripening. Beauty will come, despite your indifference.
Life has many and mysterious ways of reminding us of itself and its beauty. Sometimes it does it with a slap, and sometimes with a kiss. And even a little wave of a fishy fin!
Nevertheless, it does appear that to those of us who are lethargic and unresponsive, who refuse to appreciate natural splendor wherever it may appear, life can be merciless.

The cultivation of virtue through lovingkindness is both a selfless act and one that the Dalai Lama calls "Wise Selfish." The reason for that is simple. Every action calls forth a reaction, so that we must respect the potential effects of all our deeds. In Eastern thought this is called karma. In Hebrew it is called sekhar veonesh. The immediate reaction to a kind act is that we feel happy doing it. The long-term benefits of kindness are as far-reaching as the ripples of time, since they are handed down from generation to generation.
Contemplate the effects that your parents' lovingkindness or lack of the same had on your life. Think of one person who has shown lovingkindness to you and contemplate the effects of this on your life. Practice lovingkindness today.

Yes, the journey continues. A quite path right now but never the less, it is my path and a path I know will lead to what I set out to accomplish. What is it that I want to accomplish? First and foremost it is to be independent of bills and worries, living from pay check to pay check. Next to help others achieve what I have done. That in itself will be such a great reward to see others have the same freedom that I will have and others like me. To help my friends and family the way I want to. And just not stress or be too concerned with financial situations in life. So, like I wrote in my last posting. There are always setbacks, obstacles and emotions that can set one on another direction other than the path they are on. I won't lie or tell you that never happens with me. Yes, it does. I contemplate if I got into this opportunity during the right time. Especially the economy the way it is now. My current financial obligations and job in which is part-time. But then I go within and find Spirit conveying to me that whatever the time is that things happen is the RIGHT time. So, then I feel better and know I have not wavered from my convictions of this journey. One of the key fundamentals I think is to be connected to Spirit, have faith and know that all is divinely guided. So, the journey does continue. Until next post.__________________________________________________________

aaaw man, was that one of the fish from our wedding? did you get one that night? sorry to hear about that.
Duke our big old black lab passed that same week... I cried harder for him than i did when most people i know and love have passed.
funny how those silly creatures have such love to give, and receive from us and what a hole they can create in our day to day lives when they're gone.
peace
Sean
