You will benefit enormously if you simply strive to be a good person. Strive to live rightly. This will not always be easy. It will require real work, real dedication, real commitment to the Journey of Your Soul. Yet in the end, I trust in God that it will be so very worth it, for…
SHORT POEMS: “The Wish” by Ella Wheeler Wilcox
“The Wish” Should some great angel say to me to-morrow, “Thou must re-tread thy pathway from the start, But God will grant, in pity, for thy sorrow, Some one dear wish, the nearest to thy heart.’ This were my wish! from my life’s dim beginning Let be what has been! wisdom planned the whole; My…

“An Awakening” I am part of that flower growing there, I am part of the birds flying high on the air, Everything flows from just one Source, A giant river of Life – a Force. As all the rivers connect to the sea, there is a connection ‘tween God and me, Creator of this Universe…
A quote (within quotes) by Neale Donald Walsch on “fear”
“Fear is one of the main sources of cruelty. To conquer fear is the beginning of wisdom.” Bertrand Russell said that, and he was right.
