There’s always a better way

I saw this sign hanging in a store in Hanksville, Utah while on my way to Lake Powell last year. Creativity and Innovation inspires me 🙂

Have I got a long way to run?

The Undivided No Comments »

I woke up in the middle of the night last night and started pondering and musing about “the virus” (as I’m sure many of us have been doing). Suddenly the vague recollection of a song popped in my mind and I decided there was a message in that song I needed to hear. I couldn’t remember the lyrics very well but remembered the words, “I’ve got a long way to run”. I decided I would google that line in the morning and find the song and play it. At about 5:30 AM this morning my wife leaned over to me and said, “I was thinking about “the virus” last night and I suddenly had this song pop into my mind and it drove me nuts”. She went on to say how she had got up and had started searching the web to find the song that had popped into her mind. She finally found that it was the song titled “Run” by Collective Soul. Well that got my attention and as she recited the lyrics of the song to me I realized that it was the same song that had popped into my mind and at approximately the same time.

The time that is given to us

One of my sons sent me the quote below the other day and I thought I’d pass it on because its so applicable to our time now:

“I wish it need not have happened in my time,” said Frodo.
“So do I,” said Gandalf, “and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.”

― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

…and on a related note, it has become quite apparent to me that “the aperture” has widened substantially in recent weeks. The universe wants to talk.

Here’s a great book to read which is very applicable to the process of learning to do remote viewing or any other endeavor where the boundaries of human potential are being pushed forward. The author, Richard Bach, was also an early supporter of remote viewing and even gave it a successful try himself.

I have a great memory of reading this book out loud to my mother while riding in the car as we drove back home from the city where we had just purchased the book. It’s a short read and I had finished reading the book to her before we arrived home. 🙂

The notion of mind and matter

“Without mind there is no objects of mind. Without objects of mind there is no mind. The notion of mind and matter should be removed.”

“Mind is like the left and body is the right. You cannot have the left without the right.”

“Mind is a kind of body and body is a kind of mind.”

~Thich Nhat Hanh

There is so much that we don’t know

We look in the mirror, but we really have not begun to comprehend who and what is staring back

I wish I could show you

I wish I could show you all how beautiful you are as viewed thru the eyes of my soul.

It’s about Time

Light and Darkness

Featured, The Undivided No Comments »

I’ve named this blog “The Undivided”…but in truth there IS a great division in the Universe. The division is between light and darkness.
Written below are some thoughts on light and darkness that one of my daughters wrote and sent to me.

You are full of happiness…even euphoria.
Wisdom and understanding
Clear judgments fast, “the speed of light!”, fast as lighting
You feel energetic
You judge no one and no one can make you feel less than you are.
You know your worth.
It’s a warm feeling

Beautiful, graceful feeling
Smooth and soft
Life feels like a gift

A soul within a body

You have a desire to create, a desire to grow, a desire to nurture.
You know you are in control of your own life and your own happiness.

You appreciate others.
When you look at someone, you look deep into their eyes. You see them for who they are.
You know who you are.
You do not fear.
You are sincerely happy for others
The happiness of others makes you happy


Darkness

You think your worth can be determined by your appearance.

Jealous, comparing
The feeling or belief that you are nothing more than a shell…
You make superficial judgements..you only observe the shell. (Appearance).
The happiness of others makes you unhappy

We battle demons every day. Know your enemy. Your enemy seeks to destroy your very soul.
Stay in the light. Never let go of your light.
