Flash and Dash

One day

your life

will flash

before your eyes,

make sure its worth watching.


"The unlived life is not worth examining."
~ Tom Morris

You may wish to savor and enjoy the nuances of life, to slowly partake of life's best moments,

but beware, in retrospect you will see that they were there and then gone in a flash.

You made a mad dash to grow up, only to find out that childhood is the best time of ones life.

You made a mad dash to find a soul mate to grow old with, only to learn that the joy was in the

exploring. Be fortunate, chose a soul mate that enjoys exploring life with you.

If you have a fear that if you do not do it right now, in a flash, in a dash, there will not be anything

left for you, have faith, in God's time, all good things appear.

"It is the flash which appears, the thunder will follow.” ~ Voltaire

The flash and the dash are all for show, it is the spark and the glow that keep us on the go.

Flashy looks good but can it be kind and loving?

The dash is impressive, but the race goes to the consistent and the persistent.

A spark of kindness starts a fire of love. The glow of friendship keeps the soul happy.

A flash usually ends with a sizzle and a fizzle. The dash ends up with everyone gasping for air.

The spark and the glow patiently wait to highlight the next show.

"Genius unrefined resembles a flash of lightning, but wisdom is like the sun." ~ Franz Grillparzer

Today, be wise, chose your pace wisely.

Today, leave the flash to the pretentious.

Enjoy today, do not dash past a good moment.

The only person you need to impress is yourself.

God loves you.

Seek serenity.

Serenity is learning to change what you can and being willing to accept

that which you cannot change.

Do not waste today trying to catch a flash in the pan.

Do not waste today in a dash from here to there and forget to enjoy what life

has to offer along the way.

Be kind, catch the spark.

Be loving, fan the glowing ember.

Be the person God wants you to be and allow Him to set the pace.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

Emanate

The Spirit of the Universe

is the source of all power

and it emanates through you.

You have the choice to do

with that power what you may.

Each individual’s aura,

their glow, their presence,

is a choice, hide it or show it.

The flower emanating its sweet smell is the essence of the Higher Power whose will created all.

"What's in a name?
That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet."

The red flower attracts the hummingbird, yet most scientist agree

that only humans can see colors.

God has given all living things the color, the smell, the feel (porcupines and cacti) to protect

themselves as well as to provide for their regeneration.

To be above all other living things humans have been given the additional talent of reasoning.

This talent cannot be used when one is under the mood altered influence of drugs or alcohol.

This talent cannot be used when rage and red are the only feelings and perception

that a person knows.

The talent of reasoning becomes clearer and stronger when you chose to do the next right thing,

the will of a loving Higher Power.

"When valor preys on reason,
it eats the sword it fights with."

Be brave, have faith, but above all, make the reason for your thoughts and actions to be of

maximum service to self, others and your Higher Power.

Emanate the glow of the power that is within you, not by words, but by deeds.

To have a Higher Power remove all your defects of character is as simple as doing for others

without concern or thought for yourself.

"Rich gifts wax poor when givers prove unkind."

The most humble person glows the brightest.

Today, may the emanation of the power within you brighten your glow.

"To be or not to be that is the question.
Whether it is nobler in the mind
to suffer the stings and arrows of outrageous fortune,
or take up arms against a sea of troubles,
and by opposing them, end them."

Today, face the music, laugh, dance, sing and oppose your troubles

with the help of the emanation that flows through you.

Today, choose to emanate kindliness.

Today, choose to emanate love.

Today, choose to emanate the glow that your Higher Power has given you.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.
