It appalls me to realize how long it’s been since I wrote a blog. How could I be so irresolute? How could I possibly be so irresponsible? How could I be so – lazy? I am ashamed.
How many times today (and it’s only 8 am on the Eastern US coast,) have you heard your head telling you something like this?
I am telling you now, and this is ME speaking, Stop Listening to that voice right now!
Do you think Gandhi was always “Holier than thou” in his thoughts? Do you think he never castigated himself in his head for his list of failures, losses, mistakes? Do you think he was never ashamed of something he did?
Of course he was! He could never have connected with his followers, made so much sense, unless he understood what they were all – we were all feeling, at one time or another!
So, let’s take some advice from a very wise woman today. The advice has been given us from many, many sources over the centuries, but today, let’s take it from Beca Lewis in her blog What Is Your Life’s Impetus?
My way of saying it is “Living My Gift.” Gandhi says, “My Life Is My Message.” Beca says, “What are you an ambassador for?”
This is a simple, short message. I kind of specialize in simple, short messages. I find quotes from famous, wise people, and express wisdom by letting them say what I mean. They say it more clearly in a lot of instances. I give credit where credit is due – at least, my Intent is to do so!
And yes, I have my moments, too.
My Life Is My Message. Thank you, Mister Gandhi. Very deep words for such a simple phrase. I think I will focus on that!
