walk in silence your journey ( music : Deuter temple of silence )

Sharing My Favorite advice since 16 years old!

Desiderata~~~
Go placidly amid the noise and the haste, and remember what peace there may be in silence.

As far as possible without surrender be on good terms with all persons.

...Speak your truth quietly and clearly; and listen to others, even to the dull and the ignorant, they too have their story.

Avoid loud and aggressive persons, they are vexations to the spirit.

If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain or bitter; for always there will be greater and lesser persons than yourself.

Enjoy your achievements as well as your plans. Keep interested in your own career, however humble; it is a real possession in the changing fortunes of time.

Exercise caution in your business affairs, for the world is full of trickery. But let not this blind you to what virtue there is; many persons strive for high ideals, and everywhere life is full of heroism.

Be yourself. Especially do not feign affection. Neither be cynical about love; for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is as perennial as the grass.

Take kindly the counsel of the years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth.

Nurture strength of spirit to shield you in sudden misfortune. But do not distress yourself with dark imaginings. Many fears are born of fatigue and loneliness.

Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself. You are a child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars; you have a right to be here. And whether or not it is clear to you, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Therefore, be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be. And whatever your labors and aspirations in the noisy confusion of life, keep peace in your soul. With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams; it is still a beautiful world. Be cheerful.

Strive to be happy.


--- Max Ehrmann, 1927

Day 27...... Don't Compare Yourself To Others!

It's a common practice in our society to measure our worth by comparing our accomplishments with the achievements of others. It Is really amazing, in giving up on being perfect, and beginning the work of becoming yourself, and not comparing yourself to anyone else......We are all different ages and everyone Is on their own unique path, course of learning, and development....we must respect ourselves, and others, In our growing process and Journey's.

True happiness is found within our own unique talents and acceptance of others.......Just be yourself, Just be more confident of your dreams. One destructive habit is to constantly compare your life and yourself to other people and their lives. You compare cars, houses, jobs, shoes, money, relationships, social popularity and so on. And at the end of the day you create a lot of negative feelings within. Stay within yourself.....you will bring pure Joy into your heart and soul, and wish well for others.....


We are constantly evolving, growing, and looking for new ways to expand our impact on the world. New ways to reach and stretch our potential. Find yours, and stick with It! Have a beautiful day In your Journey. Diane

“When you are content to be simply yourself and don’t compare or compete, everybody will respect you.”
Lao Tzu

There is no need to compare my life to others. Each person’s journey is unique~

Parents can only give good advice or put them on the right paths, but the final forming of a person's character lies in their own hands.

“As you think so shall you be"........Proverbs

I will waste not even a precious second today in anger or hate or jealousy or selfishness. I know that the seeds I sow I will harvest, because every action, good or bad, is always followed by an equal reaction. I will plant only good seeds this day." Og Mandino


"The greatest discovery of my generation is that a human being can alter his life by altering his attitudes of mind."

-- William James (1842 - 1910)

Day 26 Plant only good seeds.........

The words "What you do comes back to you" are an excellent paraphrase of the Biblical truth, "You reap what you sow." You plant the seeds (sow), and then later you gather the resulting harvest (reap). The harvest that you reap depends on the kind of seeds you sow. If you sow corn, you will not reap olives.

Whatever you give out to others, God will eventually give back to you. This is the basic nature of God "YOU REAP WHAT YOU SOW." Much Truth Wisdom In these Old Biblical verses........

"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap." Galatians 6:7

The best rule......The Golden Rule "TREAT OTHERS AS YOU WOULD LIKE TO BE TREATED"

Pretty easy basic laws of life.....not much more can be said here.....Hoping you are planting only good seeds, and treating others as you would like to be treated....Much Love, Diane

Day 24....... Dare to Dream

Open your mind to dream well....when you end the night, try to end on positives, so dreams are sweeter...........When unwinding for the evening, let the last visions in your head be pleasant, not allowing negatives or bad thoughts or anxiety. In doing this, you will find you are more open to pleasant dreams......Try ending the night on pleasant thoughts, music, radio, quiet, or visuals.

Many people complain they do not dream or sleep well. Open up In a positive way to get It, rather than the last thing In your head negatives....end sweet, and you may have more pleasant, relaxing sleep and dreams~ Try It......SWEET DREAMS :) Diane

Me being silly on Vacation!

Live life fully while you're here. Experience everything. Take care of yourself and your friends. Have fun, be crazy, be weird. Go out and screw up! You're going to anyway, so you might as well enjoy the process. Take the opportunity to learn from your mistakes: find the cause of your problem and eliminate it. Don't try to be perfect; just be an excellent example of being human.

Day 22 Decisions

"Two roads diverged in a wood, and I,
I took the one less traveled by,
And that has made all the difference." ~Robert Frost


The Human heart can be a frail thing, and face It sometimes things or situations hurt, but only for a period of time.....When you are making positive choices for yourself, you must let go of the outcome on the other side....The what If's, what will happen etc. You must follow your Internal gut, and have much faith for positive change.

We all have a strong internal gut telling ourselves whether something Is right, or just not right for us. When you weigh the situation In your mind (or on paper) of positive, or negatives, and go with your internal gut, with much openness to faith.......you are on your way to good decisions, eliminating something you feel Is wrong for you. It may not always easy for you to decide. In deciding If something is right or wrong for you, you must be open to positive change, trust God & your own judgment. If you are following your best decisions, you will find your road, passion, direction to what is the greatest life for you :)

Some things In life are already In place by God we have no choice. Some are lessons and roads to lead us to our ultimate purpose and wishes fulfilled. Some roads we need to choose within what Is placed before us.......If we are going against our better judgment and choosing to stay with something that you feel will hurt you, you are on the wrong road. God does not want you on the wrong road~ Delaying or choosing to Ignore signs, or worrying what the outcome will be, or not wanting to hurt......Will only really In the long term, prolong the hurting of yourself, If It Is not good, wise, or healthy decision for you.

It Is hard to make decisions at times, let your faith, trust and inner guidance of what you truly want In your life, be your decision maker. Let go of the outcome, of what will happen, TRUST..... Sometimes deciding wisely, will lead you to a better road of health and happiness.

Choose what Is best for you. To obtain the life you want, you must align with the truths of what you seek In your heart and soul. Then all will fall into place for you. In time, If you place yourself to be open to possibilities of what you want, God will help you get what you need. You must put yourself there first and be open to It! You must decide, the life you want to live. Hard as It may be.........decide. For me, My Faith In God has sustained me, and helped me with hard decisions, I hope for this day, healthy decisions for you~ You must be able to decide, live with It, and certainly not look back, whatever the outcome~ Diane

Anything that bothers you is only a problem within. Only you can experience it and only you can correct it ~Wayne Dyer

Pain is what I walk through; misery is what I choose to sit in...........




Creative minds have always been known to survive any kind of bad training.
