Asking for advice

April 8th, 2011 by meremystic

When we ask advice we are usually looking for an accomplice. 

Charles Varlet de La Grange, Pensées, 1872

What a profound thought! It applies to advice, to getting readings, even at times to therapy.

When we are looking for advice and for answers, we need to really understand why we are asking the question. Are we looking for permission or approval? Are we looking for comfort? Or do we really want to know what best or what is really going to happen in any given situation?

What we think, we become.  All that we are arises with our thoughts.  With our thoughts, we make the world.

Everyone’s a genius, but…

Everyone is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it ends up thinking it’s stupid. ~Albert Einstein

This comment is amazing.  Since all of our gifts are singular and unique, the “system” we live in only recognizes certain types of gifts and rejects those who don’t have those gifts.  However, we all do have great gifts!  Jim1537

What we are or what we can be?

September 11th, 2009 by jim1537

“The important thing is this: To be able at any moment to sacrifice what we are for what we could become.”

Charles Dubois

What I like about this comment is that it lets us know that we have to let go of our preconceived reality, get out of our own way and be open to endless possibilities! Wonderful!
