Destroyed

012

“These things

will destroy the human race:

politics without principle,

progress without compassion,

wealth without work,

learning without silence,

religion without fearlessness

and worship without awareness.”

.

Anthony de Mello, SJ

.

I do not know if it is the cynic in me

or just old age realism, but,

having been raised in the middle of the last century,

I perceive that the world has begun

the downward slippery slide towards destruction.

Everyone worships some things,

hopefully those things are peace of mind,

love of life and God.

Today, let us all pray and do our best to

reverse the downward trend.

Life is not to be taken for granted.

Life is living and loving in the here and now.

Commune Daily

007

.

“To commune daily

with God

in deep meditation,

and to carry His love

and guidance with you

into all your daily activities,

is the way that leads to

permanent peace and happiness.”

.

~ Paramahansa Yogananda

.

Religions are good if they teach respect.

Honor thy father and thy mother should be a

daily ‘thank you’ for their having brought you

into this world.

Thou shalt not kill; all lives matter.

Thou shalt not steal; be the love, be the peace,

be the happiness and share all that you can.

Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbor,

regardless of race, religion, creed, color or sex,

and lets us include education or political orientation.

Today, if your religion is telling you to be disrespectful,

find another God to commune with.

Happiness is communing with a respectful God.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.
