February 28: Live Like Sumer Thoughts for the Day
If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams,
And endeavors to live the life which he imagined,
He will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.

Whatever you do or dream you can, begin it;
Boldness has genius, power and magic in it.
Begin it now.

You see things; and you say, "Why?"
But I dream things that never were; and I say, "Why not?'

February 21: Live Like Sumer Thoughts for the Day
I have learnt through bitter experience the one supreme lesson to conserve my anger, and as heat conserved is transmuted into energy, even so our anger controlled can be transmuted into a power which can move the world.

No sensation or mental torture can affect you if the mind is dissociated from it and anchored in the peace and joy of God.

"Peace is not an absence of war." Spinoza said it, but it is mindlessly quoted out of context, for he added, "it is a virtue, a state of mind, a disposition for benevolence, confidence, justice."

Peace. It does not mean to be in a place where there is no noise, trouble or hard work. It means to be in the midst of those things and still be calm in your heart. ~ Author unknown

February 17: Live Like Sumer Thoughts for the Day
When tigers of worries, sickness, and death are chasing you, your only sanctuary is the inner temple of silence. The spiritually deep man lives day and night in a calm interior silence into which neither menacing worries nor even the crash of colliding worlds can intrude.
~ Paramahansa Yogananda

The Peace Prayer of Saint Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.
O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.
Amen. Labels: february, Saint Francis

The Light Blue of the Earth
Periwinkle are the oceans of the earth from an Up-top view or close to the shore on a crystal morning. Periwinkle makes me feel like I’m sailing over clouds on eagle’s wings on a brisk afternoon. Periwinkle is the taste of clean water or fresh air from a forest. Periwinkle is the smell of dew on a freshly mowed grass or flowers on a clear spring day. Periwinkle makes me feel calm and with peace with myself. Periwinkle sounds like the desolate silence of winter. Periwinkle is the softness of the Earth.
~ Sumer Alvarez, Age 10
