February 28, 2015 self-honesty 20-mile meditative run,“The Light is more than some abstract, unknowable energy force. Light is Truth. If Light is truth, then darkness must be lies. Each lie we tell to others and ourselves casts the shadow of separation upon us. Every time even the minor deception and the truth are made known, we are re-united with the Light. Therefore, Let there be Light. Those are the words by which you can create your own magnificent world.”

February 27, 2015 determination 13 mile meditative run”People who lack the clarity, courage, or determination to follow their own dreams will often find ways to discourage yours. When you change for the better, the people around you will be inspired to change also….but only after doing their best to make you stop. Live your truth and don’t EVER stop.”

February 26, 2015 self-love 13 mile meditative run,”When you love yourself more then things simply become lighter and easier. You will not make as many mountains out of molehills (or out of plain air) as you used to. Alternatively, beat yourself up or drag yourself down over mistakes or temporary setbacks.When your opinion of yourself goes up then you will stop trying to get so much validation and attention from other people.You become less needy and find an inner stability even when your world might be negative or uncertain at times.The increasing self-esteem and self-love also makes you feel more deserving of good things in life and so you’ll self-sabotage less and go after what you deep down want with more motivation and focus than ever before.”

February 24, 2015 gratitude 14 mile meditative run,”Gratitude is the state of mind of thankfulness. As it is cultivated, we experience an increase in our "sympathetic joy," our happiness at another's happiness. Just as in the cultivation of compassion, we may feel the pain of others, so we may begin to feel their joy as well. And it doesn't stop there.”

February 21, 2015 emotional, control 16-mile meditative run,“Every day we have plenty of opportunities to get angry, stressed or offended.

February 16, 2015 self-understanding 5-mile meditative runs,“Greater in battle than the man who would conquer a thousand-thousand men, is he who would conquer just one — himself. Better to conquer yourself than others. When you've trained yourself, living in constant self-control, neither a deva nor gandhabba, nor a Mara banded with Brahmas, could turn that triumph back into defeat.”

February 14, 2015 patient 18 mile meditative run“Water does not resist. Water flows. When you plunge your hand into it, all you feel is a caress. Water is not a solid wall it will not stop you. However, water always goes where it wants to go, and nothing in the end can stand against it. Water is patient. Dripping water wears away a stone. Remember that, my child. Remember you are half water. If you cannot go through an obstacle, go around it. Water does.”

February 4, 2015 self-motivation 14 mile meditative,“Never surrender your hopes and dreams to the fateful limitations others have placed on their own lives. The vision of your true destiny does not reside within the blinkered outlook of the naysayers and the doom prophets. Judge not by their words, but accept advice based on the evidence of actual results. Do not be surprised should you find a complete absence of anything mystical or miraculous in the manifested reality of those who are so eager to advise you. Friends and family who suffer the lack of abundance, joy, love, fulfillment, and prosperity in their own lives really have no business imposing their self-limiting beliefs on your reality experience.”
