The Fight Inside

http://www.turtle\zen.com/twowolves.html

An elderly Cherokee Native American was teaching his grandchildren about life...

He said to them, "A fight is going on inside me, it is a terrible fight and it is between two wolves.

One wolf is evil -- he is fear, anger, envy, sorrow, regret, greed, arrogance, self-pity, guilt, resentment, inferiority, lies, false pride, competition, superiority, and ego.

The other is good---he is joy, peace, love, hope, sharing, serenity, humility, kindness, benevolence, friendship, empathy, generosity, truth, compassion and faith.

This same fight is going on inside you, and inside every other person, too."

They thought about it for a minute and then one child asked his grandfather, "Which wolf will win?"

The old Cherokee simply replied: "The one you feed".

Lesson:

Change your Thoughts - Change your Outlook;
Change your Outlook - Change your World.

Pilot's Crib Sheet

http://www.tallrite.com/LightRelief/pilotcribs.htm1.


Every takeoff is optional. Every landing is mandatory.

2. If you push the stick forward, the houses get bigger. If you pull the stick back, they get smaller. That is, unless you keep pulling the stick back - then they get bigger again.

3. Flying isn't dangerous. Crashing is what's dangerous.

4. It's always better to be down here wishing you were up there, than up there wishing you were down here.

5. The only time you have too much fuel is when you're on fire.

6. The propeller is just a big fan in front of the plane used to keep the pilot cool. When it stops, you can actually watch the pilot start sweating.

7. When in doubt, hold on to your altitude. No one has ever collided with the sky.

8. A "good" landing is one from which you can walk away. A "great" landing is one after which they can use the plane again.

9. Learn from the mistakes of others. You won't live long enough to make all of them yourself.

10. You know you've landed with the wheels up if it takes full power to taxi to the ramp.

11. The probability of survival is inversely proportional to the angle of arrival. Large angle of arrival, small probability of survival - and vice versa.

12. Never let an airplane take you somewhere your brain didn't get to five minutes earlier.

13. Stay out of clouds. The silver lining everyone keeps talking about might be another airplane going in the opposite direction.

14. Reliable sources also report that mountains have been known to hide out in clouds.

15. Always try to keep the number of landings you make equal to the number of takeoffs you've made.

16. There are three simple rules for making a smooth landing. Unfortunately, no one knows what they are.

17. You start with a bag full of luck and an empty bag of experience. The trick is to fill the bag of experience before you empty the bag of luck.

18. Helicopters can't fly; they're just so ugly the earth repels them.

19. If all you can see out of the windscreen is ground that's going round and round and all you can hear is commotion coming from the passenger compartment, things are not at all as they should be.

20. In the ongoing battle between objects made of aluminum going hundreds of miles per hour and the ground going zero miles per hour, the ground has yet to lose.

21. Good judgment comes from experience. Unfortunately, experience usually come from bad judgment.

22. It's always a good idea to keep the pointy end going forward as much as possible.

23. Keep looking around. There's always something you've missed.

24. Remember, gravity is not just a good idea. It's the law. And it's not subject to repeal.

25. The three most useless things to a pilot are altitude above you, runway behind you, and a tenth of a second ago

26. There are old pilots and there are bold pilots. There are, however, no old, bold pilots.

91. And allow the world as others choose to see it, exist as well

92. People think that if everyone knows the power of the LOA there won't be enough to go around .. This is a lie that's been ingrained in us and makes so many greedy.

93. The truth is there is more than enough love, creative ideas, power, joy, happiness to go around.

95. So let the variety of your reality thrill you as you choose all the things you want.. get behind the good feelings of all your wants.

96. Write your script. When you see things you don't want, don't think about them, write about them, talk about them, push against them, or join groups that focus on the don't wants... remove your attention from don't wants.. and place them on do wants

97. We are mass energy. Everything is energy. EVERYTHING.

98. Don't define yourself by your body .. it's the infinite being that's connected to everything in the universe.

99. One energy field. Our bodies have distracted us from our energy. We are the infinite field of unfolding possibilities. The creative force.

100. Are your thoughts worthy of you? If not - NOW is the time to change them. You can begin right were you are right now. Nothing matters but this moment and what you are focusing your attention on.

Installing LOVE

I came across this on a website

http://www.visionsoflove.com/relationshipsLove/howtoInstallLOVE.htm

it just touched me, see if it touches you

Customer Service (CS) Rep. : Yes, Ma'am, how can I help you today?

Customer: Well, after much consideration, I've decided to install LOVE.
Can you guide me through the process?

CS Rep. : Yes, I can help you. Are you ready to proceed?

Customer: Well, I'm not very technical, but I think I'm ready to install now. What do I do first?

CS Rep. : The first step is to open your HEART. Have you located your HEART ma'am?

Customer: Yes I have, but there are several other programs running right now.
Is it okay to install while they are running?

CS Rep. : What programs are running ma'am?

Customer: Let's see, I have PAST-HURT.EXE, LOW-ESTEEM.EXE, GRUDGE.EXE,
and RESENTMENT.COM running right now.

CS Rep. : No problem. LOVE will gradually erase PAST-HURT.EXE from your current
operating system.
It may remain in your permanent memory, but it will no longer disrupt other
programs. LOVE will eventually overwrite LOW-ESTEEM.EXE with a module of its own called
HIGH-ESTEEM.EXE. However, you have to completely turn off GRUDGE.EXE and
RESENTMENT.COM. Those programs prevent LOVE from being properly installed.
Can you turn those off ma'am?

Customer: I don't know how to turn them off. Can you tell me how?

CS Rep. : My pleasure. Go to your Start menu and invoke FORGIVENESS.EXE.
Do this as many times as necessary until GRUDGE.EXE and RESENTMENT.COM have
been completely erased.

Customer: Okay, done. LOVE has started installing itself automatically. Is that normal?

CS Rep. : Yes. You should receive a message that says it will reinstall for the life of your HEART.
Do you see that message?

Customer: Yes I do. Is it completely installed?

CS Rep. : Yes, but remember that you have only the base program.
You need to begin connecting to other HEART's in order to get the upgrades.

Customer: Oops. I have an error message already. What should I do?

CS Rep. : What does the message say?

Customer: It says "ERROR 412 - PROGRAM NOT RUN ON INTERNAL COMPONENTS."
What does that mean?

CS Rep. : Don't worry ma'am, that's a common problem. It means that the LOVE program is set
up to run on external HEARTS but has not yet been run on your HEART. It is one of those
complicated programming things, but in nontechnical terms it means you have to "LOVE" your
own machine before it can "LOVE" others.

Customer: So what should I do?

CS Rep. : Can you pull down the directory called "SELF-ACCEPTANCE"?

Customer: Yes, I have it.

CS Rep. : Excellent. You're getting good at this.

Customer: Thank you.

CS Rep. : You're welcome. Click on the following files and then copy them to the "MYHEART"
directory: FORGIVE-SELF.DOC, REALIZE-WORTH.TXT, and ACKNOWLEDGE-
LIMITATIONS.DOC. The system will overwrite any conflicting files and begin patching any faulty
programming. Also, you need to delete VERBOSE-SELF-CRITIC.EXE from all directories, and
then empty your recycle bin afterwards to make sure it is completely gone and never comes back.

Customer: Got it. Hey! My HEART is filling up with new files. SMILE.MPG is playing on my
monitor right now and it shows that PEACE.EXE, and CONTENTMENT.COM are copying
themselves all over my HEART. Is this normal?

CS Rep. : Sometimes. For others it takes a while, but eventually everything gets downloaded at
the proper time. So, LOVE is installed and running. You should be able to handle it from here.
One more thing before I go.

Customer: Yes?

CS Rep. : LOVE is freeware. Be sure to give it and its various modules to everybody you meet.
They will in turn share it with other people and they will return some similarly cool modules back to you.

Customer: I will. Thanks for your help. By the way, what's your name?

CS Rep. : You can call me the Divine Cardiologist, also known as The Great Physician, but most
call me God. Most people feel all they need is an annual checkup to stay heart-healthy, but the
manufacturer (Me) suggests a schedule of daily maintenance for maximum efficiency.
Put another way, keep in touch.........

Insight

In one of the random forwarded emails, one sentence catched my eyes

I read that atleast ten times,

it was so simple, yet so powerful

how could i not know it before

we have made our lives so complicated that sometimes simple things are overlooked

at any given point in time there is so much going on in our life and in our minds that we jsut forget to LIVE and ENJOY the NOW and spend greater part of our lives eithe in worries about past or future

ne ways, that one line gave a beautiful metaphor, a wonderful paradigm shift

it said

"When there is more IN SIGHT, you get more INSIGHT"

so simple, yet so powerful

when we start living in the now, observe things closely, sometimes we get amused by the observations we overlooked before, things that we never realised, we never thought of, we only come to know those once we come close in touch with that thing, event or person

i dont wanna ruin the magic of these words by my explanations so just one more time

remember

"When there is more IN SIGHT, you get more INSIGHT"

coffee


a friend share this with me

A group of alumni, highly established in their careers, got together to
visit their old university lecturer. Conversation soon turned into
complaints about stress in work and life. Offering his guests coffee, the
lecturer went to the kitchen and returned with a large pot of coffee and an
assortment of cups: porcelain, plastic, glass, some plain-looking and some
expensive and exquisite, telling them to help themselves to hot coffee.

When all the students had a cup of coffee in hand, the lecturer said: 'If
you noticed, all the nice-looking, expensive cups were taken up, leaving
behind the plain and cheap ones.

'While it is but normal for you to want only the best for yourselves, that
is the source of your problems and stress'.

What all of you really wanted was coffee, not the cup, but you consciously
went for the better cups and are eyeing each other's cups.' 'Now, if Life is
coffee, then the jobs, money and position in society are the cups. They are
just tools to hold and contain Life, but the quality of Life doesn't
change.'

Sometimes, by concentrating only on the cup, we fail to enjoy the coffee in
it.'

So don't let the cups drive you...enjoy the coffee instead."

Life, Cruise (for ma frnd Lail)

I always remember this story I read in a book when I was young

about a couple who saved their entire life for a dream cruise

and then came a time when they saved enough so they can go for that cruise,

they paid for the 15 day long cruise but realized they didn't have any money left for the food,

so they packed themselves with biscuits, they went to the cruise

Breakfast, lunch and dinner they only had biscuits.

They were really happy, it was a great cruise, lot of fun, but just biscuits,

14 days passed by, last day they realized that they had some money for the grand dinner,

they went to the cafeteria and asked for the menu, it was a great menu,

lots of foods varieties but to their surprise there were no prices on the menu,

when asked the waiter told them that all meals were free

and prices were already included in the cruise ticket………..

and they lived 14 days just on biscuits……aaawwwwwwww, that sure was cruel,

they didn't realize that fact

but

Do we?

We have a life time ticket to our life's journey

with all the powers and all the means to enjoy it all included

provided to us right in our own hand

but still we beleive we dont have it

and worry all the time

Isn't it true....

all powers are always yours, so is your lord who creates it....

just Beleive...

when you have a life time ticket to all the laughters and happiness of the world,

why do u choose to live on tears

hey come back to life, laughter and happiness

they are waiting for you

Sea / Spiritual realm

There are two kinds of creations

one that live on earth

and other that live in the sea

very rare are those who can live in both worlds

those, including you, who live on earth

dont know what it is like to live in the sea

you simply can not do it

there is a force that keeps you out of the sea

same force that keeps other creatures within the sea

same is true for spiritual realm

everyone is not allowed to come in

but once you go in

its so beautiful in there;

you will never want to get out

choice is yours. . .
