What you need is to recognize the possibilities and challenges offered by the present moment, and to embrace them with courage, faith, and hope.”

October 25, 2014 inner beauty 38 mile meditative run,”Consider a tree for a moment. As beautiful as trees are to look at, we do not see what goes on underground - as they grow roots. Trees must develop deep roots in order to grow strong and produce their beauty. However, we do not see the roots. We just see and enjoy the beauty. In much the same way, what goes on inside of us is like the roots of a tree.

October 17, 2014 Ecclesiastes 9:11 18 mile meditative run,”I have observed something else under the sun. The fastest runner does not always win the race, and the strongest warrior does not always win the battle. The wise sometimes go hungry, and the skillful are not necessarily wealthy. In addition, those who are educated do not always lead successful lives. It is all decided by chance, by being in the right place at the right time.”

October 15, 2014 gratitude 17 mile meditative run,”Gratitude based on a faith that everything that happens or does not happen in your life is for your own best interests, that we live in a purposeful universe. Life is always for you; it is never against you. It is a fact that blessings sometimes come wrapped in fear, pain, and tears. In choosing to practice unconditional gratitude you are choosing to trust the process, to honor your feelings and to place your faith in an outcome of inevitable grace.”

October 14, 2014 beautiful rainy Atlanta day 17 mile meditative run”One of the best guides to how to be self-loving is to give ourselves the love we are often dreaming about receiving from others. There was a time when I felt lousy about my over-forty financial situation, saw myself as being poor, too this, or too that. Yet I fantasized about finding a lover who would give me the gift of loved as I am. It is silly, that I would dream of someone else to offer me affirmation and the acceptance I was withholding from myself. This was a moment when the maxim "You can never love anybody if you are unable to love yourself" made clear sense. In addition, I add, "Do not expect to receive the love from someone else you do not give yourself.”

October 11, 2014 high self-versus lower self-energy 36 mile meditative run“love in the Essen in primary and morality is within us all. However, for one to understand the energy of love and higher self-one must view others neither with lower energy nor of an egoistic endeavor. In practicing lower energy within self, with others we feel superior and hatred. In our higher self in others, we see a reflection of self, which is love in the making, talent, miracle abundance of life at its best, which in self-awareness is attainable. In all higher energy forgives the past, understands others regardless of their race, country of birth, religion and believe system no matter how sinful or not so make sense to our thought process. Above all like the cells in our body we are all one and inter connected, practice high energy with love inspire self and others”

October 9, 2014 understanding life 17-mile meditative run,“God is life. God is life in action. The best way to say, "I love you, God," is to live your life doing your best. The best way to say, "Thank you, God," is by letting go of the past and living in the present moment, right here and now. Whatever life takes away from you let it go. When you surrender and let go of the past, you allow yourself to be fully alive in the moment. Letting go of the past means you can enjoy the dream that is happening right now.”

October 8, 2014 attitude 17 mile meditative run,“Attitude is little thing that makes a big difference” said Winston Churchill. When we have a difference of opinion with others and get into a conflict, it either leads to having a positive or negative effect on the relationship. Your positive attitude gives a positive result whereas the negative, gives a negative result. A positive attitude gives the confidence of achieving anything and removes the doubt and lethargy. When you ask how rather than whether this is possible, it is positive attitude. Evidently, a positive attitude towards life determines the life’s attitude towards us. This small attitude makes all the difference in life. A positive attitude has the capacity to create miracles and can cure diseases even the wonder drugs cannot. Enhance your self-confidence and self-determination, while at it spread them to others too.”

October 7, 2014 inner self 17 mile meditative run,”Every day we slaughter our finest impulses. That is why we get heartache when we read those lines written by the hand of a master and recognize them as our own, as the tender shoots, which we stifled because we lacked the faith to believe in our own powers, our own criterion of truth and beauty. When we get quiet, when we become desperately honest with ourselves, we are capable of uttering profound truths. We all derive from the same source. There is no mystery about the origin of things. We are all part of creation, all kings and queens, all poets, all musicians; we have only to open up, to discover what is already there.”

October 3, 2014 controlled emotion 18-mile meditative run,“Laugh, even when you feel too sick or too worn out or tired. Smile, even when you are trying not to cry and the tears are blurring your vision.Sing, even when people stare at you and tell you your voice is crappy. Trust, even when your heart begs you not to. Twirl, even when your mind makes no sense of what you see. Frolicked, even when made fun of. Kiss, even when others are watching. Sleep, even when you are afraid of what the dreams might bring. Run, even when it feels like you cannot run any more. In addition, always, remember, even when the memories pinch your heart. Because the pain of all your experience is what makes you the person you are now. In addition, without your experience---you are an empty page, a blank notebook, a missing lyric. What makes you brave is your willingness to live through your terrible life and hold your head up high the next day. So do not live life in fear. Because you are stronger now, after all the crap has happened, than you ever were back before it started.”
