THE DAILY SPARK

A CHOICE

Peace is a choice

Choosing peace takes practice.

FROM:  ABOUT PEACE by Scott Shaw

REFLECTION:

  • The Holidays can be so stressful.  You do have another choice.
  • Choose peace.. practice peace.
  • Practice makes perfect!

ONLY IN PEACE…

Only in peace do we have joy. Not by acquiring things. Not by doing things. Not by earning or learning. Not by reaching a position. But by dedication. Without peace there is no joy and without dedication there is no peace.

Quote by Swami Satchidananda

REFLECTION:

  • Have you ever wanted something… thinking that would be “the answer” only to have that replaced by another desire?
  • Have you been reaching for another rung on the ladder of success?
  • Do you want to: have more… do more – yet still not finding peace.
  • How can you embrace more peace and get more joy in your life?

SHELTER TO LIVE

It is in the shelter of each other that the people live.

An Irish Proverb

REFLECTION:

  • How do you choose to be with others?
  • What is the quality of respect and care you show for another?
  • We are all interconnected.  What kind of shelter do you offer for yourself? For others?
  • What conditions are required for that shelter?  Can you offer it to another?
