Be Mindful Of Others and your Surroundings~ RESPECT
Everyday people are walking around so distracted, not really being mindful of others around them.....People on phones, talking loud, texting, bumping Into people, causing noise, worse yet driving while doing this........
I can't wrap my mind around compromising your safety, and the safety of others for a call or text... Many times over, people wish they would have focused on the more important task at hand, rather than a call or argument.....They regretted the decision In that split second, through tragedy.....Don't let this be you.....Have a peaceful distracted drive.......I can't think of anything better than good music on a drive (pre- put on before driving, not playing with It while driving) :) The call or text can wait, guard your safety, the safety of others, and enjoy your drive~ Keep alert~ others are doing this on the road. Beware.
Sometimes people are In public places not considering others don't want to hear your noise your personal business or argument...We really need to have more consideration for people around us, we need to be more mindful, and humble our self-centered behaviors a bit.....Can you Imagine working at a store counter, or a doctors office and people are talking on the phone, and do not even greet or acknowledge you or the people around??? Sometimes people are cursing and displaying angry behavior In front of others, or worse yet little ones, with no regard that people are witnessing this....Some are always quick to complain, or show hatred to others, rather than being understanding, and being kind In certain circumstances..... Oh my, we are getting RUDE and SELF CENTERED.......Some VALUE and RESPECT needs shown these days! Some need to get out of their own bubble and have consideration for others......Diane

We are all connected to each other.......Diane Masi
We must learn that everything on the planet Is connected, and the energy we put out, we receive back....People think, love, hurt, and feel the same on every part of this great Earth! Even animals have proven great love In their interactions, to those connected to them.....Diane Masi
We control our thoughts and choices, but I believe God ultimately holds the big picture....and Only God predicts the future...Diane Masi

Get interested in something! Absolutely enthralled in something! The more you lose yourself in something bigger than yourself, the more energy you will have.
~ Norman Vincent Peale
Sometimes we need to just breathe, let go......I have found the key to the best things happening Is to Dream your dreams, Release worry, Trust wholeheartedly In God........this Is the time you really will have "It done to you" and good things and needs are just placed right In front of you....Just happens when you need It.......Free yourself..Life Is So Very Good! ~ Diane Masi

All we are saying is give peace a chance. John Lennon
We only have this life, this chance to make our world count~ I don't understand why we all do not live and strive for more peace In this beautiful world~ It Is made up of so much diversity and love.........People are people, all over the world and all hold a human heart and soul.....Strive for peace~ I hope It starts In your home, or In training of your young ones....There have been so any great advocates for peace, that were ahead of their time, and really foresaw the need for It ......What can we do to make this world more peaceful, and a better place? For one thing I can say Is we need to remove hatred, racism and oppression of others as a start......... Diane
Voices & Choices
There are so many voices and choices In this world. It Is up to us to be very discerning of where these voices and influences are coming from....Are they God like? Are they good voices? We all have so much to choice from, but we must be fully aware of what these voices are speaking. We must know If they are God based Influences.
It Is amazing on how some shudder at hearing a quote from a bible or the good word, and won't listen, but will listen to a super star or a professor (not saying all are negative.)There are many positive people and forces In this world, however we must be sure of the root of the voice and be very careful In choosing what we follow........In every culture new age religions and voices are popping up and are taking the word of God twisting It out of context to conform minds, and sending out mind altering messages, some that bring destruction to the body, heart, soul, family life, compromising values, respect and contradictory messages (hidden) not Truth and infusing man made laws (dangerous turf)......... Be careful, Gods law Is simplistic, peaceful, brings Joy and Love and does not harm you, your mind, or others.....Careful In what you hear. Mind your ears....
We like to be Independent In our decisions, but be careful of negative forces In Mass Media, Music, Television, Internet, Technology, and Culture.
The good Shepperd teaches us calls his sheep by name, and leads them out. We must remember someone beloved Is calling your name in tones warm with affirmation. Now magnify that sound, so it drowns out all destructive influences and negative voices. In Jesus teachings he is pleased with you, as most solid ancient religious teaching, they delight in you, protect you. Celebrate Peaceful, Loving, Godlike Influences today! Diane
I love these verses In the bible........John 10:4 When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice.
(Recognize the good voice)
John 10:1-10
The Good Shepherd and His Sheep
“Very truly I tell you Pharisees, anyone who does not enter the sheep pen by the gate, but climbs in by some other way, is a thief and a robber. The one who enters by the gate is the shepherd of the sheep. The gatekeeper opens the gate for him, and the sheep listen to his voice. He calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. When he has brought out all his own, he goes on ahead of them, and his sheep follow him because they know his voice. But they will never follow a stranger; in fact, they will run away from him because they do not recognize a stranger’s voice.” Jesus used this figure of speech, but the Pharisees did not understand what he was telling them.
Therefore Jesus said again, “Very truly I tell you, I am the gate for the sheep. All who have come before me are thieves and robbers, but the sheep have not listened to them. I am the gate; whoever enters through me will be saved. They will come in and go out, and find pasture. The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.
Peter 2:20 His divine power has granted to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of him who called us to his own glory and excellence.
Really carefully pay attention and know what you hear..soooo much out there!
