Good morning everyone
Trying (again!) To cultivate a daily meditation practice… From this morning:
As always, exactly what I needed to hear!
I just listened to a WONDERFUL Ted Talk about Mindfulness. I believe that this is a aspect in our Journey in this wonderful community. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I have and I will listen to this from time to time to keep reminding myself.
Thank you for sharing. I will surely check this out!
Bye for now…

Thought it would be fun to start a thread where u can post sayings or maxims that u would like to share. I like this one -
Know yourself
Know your talents and capacity, in judgement and inclination. You cannot master yourself unless you know yourself. There are mirrors for the face but none for the mind. Let careful thought about yourself serve as a substitute. When the outer image is forgotten, keep the inner one to improve and perfect. Learn the force of your intellect and capacity for affairs, test the force of your courage in order to apply it, and keep your foundations and your head clear for everything.
Balthazar Gracian , The Art of Worldly Wisdom, 1637
What do you think? Share if you will.
Bye for now…
@CNevarezN @JB.5280 moved your posts here to help keep them with other similar posts and so they are less likely to get lost in the general forum feed
Something I’m really becoming aware of again is my tendency to question my choices, predict the future, run through all the scenarios that might happen and get lost in those thoughts. Of course that takes me away from all the stuff that is actually happening.
Next time I notice myself getting caught up in the things I can’t control, I will remind myself that I made a decision based on the information that was available to me at the time and I will be capable of fixing problems if and when they arise.
Just got done watching and I liked it! Thanks for posting that.

Good morning everyone. Great reads and adds. I am so happy to see so much activity and helping thoughts. Have a great sober day.
