Golden_Angel_K's Blog – August 2010 Archive (30)

When we fall in love with someone or make a new friend, we sometimes see that person in a glowing light. Their good qualities dominate the foreground of our perception and their negative qualities. They just don’t seem to have any. This temporary state of grace is commonly known as putting someone on a pedestal. Often times we put spiritual leaders and our gurus on pedestals. We have all done this to someone at one time or another, and as long… Continue

Keeping Our Minds Supple



A lot of people feel threatened if they feel they are being asked to question their cherished beliefs or their perception of reality. Yet questioning is what keeps our minds supple and strong. Simply settling on one way of seeing things and refusing to be open to other possibilities makes the mind rigid and generally creates a restrictive and uncomfortable atmosphere. We all know someone who refuses to budge on one or more issues, and we may have our own… Continue

Common Courtesy



We often feel that we don’t have the time or energy to extend ourselves to others with the small gestures that compose what we call common courtesy. It sometimes seems that this kind of social awareness belongs to the past, to smaller towns and slower times. Yet, when someone extends this kind of courtesy to us, we always feel touched. Someone who lends a helping hand when we are struggling with our groceries makes an impression because many people just walk right by.… Continue

Being Happy for Others



We all want to be the kind of people who are happy for others when they

experience success or a cause for celebration in their lives, but it

isn’t always easy. Sometimes powerful, dark feelings come up at times

when decorum dictates that we should be feeling the opposite. Instead of

reaching out and celebrating for our loved one, we may feel the rising

up of our own pain. This pain may… Continue

"Knowing others is Wisdom; Knowing the Self is Enlightenment"

I see a rainbow up high in the sky

I make a wish and release it to fly

To wing its way to the colours above

To rise high like on the wings of a dove

♥♥-♥♥-

I see rain drops falling softly down

Falling from an Angel’s crown

I feel refreshed as the rain soaks through

A feeling of a sudden awakening don’t you

♥♥-♥♥-

I watch the sun rise into the sky

Warming the earth as it rise’s so high

Then slowly it sinks back to the… Continue

Today I can complain because the weather is rainy or I can be thankful that the grass is getting watered for free.



Today I can waste time fretting and worrying about what everyone else is doing, and have no power over or I can focus my energies on making my world a better place, which I have supreme power over.



Today I can feel sad that I don't have more money or I can be glad that my finances encourage me to attract even… Continue

Still yourself in a silent place

And listen for the footsteps of your inner voice

It is shouting in vain and crying alone

Unheard through this world full of noise



There’ve been so many voices that have called

And you’ve followed through their doors

But they only led to hurt and empty rooms

And you were not sure which voice was yours



So they tugged on your sleeves, said you only live… Continue

The way to heal the world is with the power of love. When we love our inner self we love the world.
