I AM GOING TO MAKE HEAVEN OF THESE HELLS
My goal is simple--
Make something useful
From everything painful.
Nothing that has hammered me
Will go to waste.
I’ll water every broken,
Scarred piece of me until the
Lesson necessary grows.
I’ll hang grateful wreaths
Upon every closed door.
When lonely, I’ll find the
Peace hidden in silence.
When sad, I’ll mourn
With my full heart.
I'll feed grief all the Love
Leftover until I’m full again.
Not even my heartache
Will go to waste.
My bad habits will
Become foot holds;
The back of demons,
Spineless stepping stones.
I won’t be anywhere
Dark for long.
There isn’t much time left
For us and these dreams--
I've got to spend it carefully...
With those who appreciate
And accept me equally.
The Love I squeeze out of
Each day will be proportionate
To the amount I pour into it.
I’m going to make a
Heaven of these hells--
You'll see!
--by J. Raymond
ONLY IN THE PRESENT MOMENT
Every thing worth having,
Everything our hearts really want,
Everything that is inspiring,
Everything that is loving,
Everything that brings us joy…
Is always happening only
In this very present moment.

THE MOST IMPORTANT QUESTION
The most important question
You can ever ask yourself is—
Is the universe a friendly place?
The answer to this question determines
The quality of your life.
—Einstein
THE POWER OF TELLING YOURSELF THE TRUTH ABOUT YOURSELF
The degree to which a person can grow is directly proportional to the amount of truth he can accept about himself without running away.
—Leland Val Van De Wall
