MONDAY...THE START OF A NEW WEEK...
TODAY'S THOUGHTS FROM "FIREFLY" ARE ABOUT
"TIME"
AND AN ASTRONOMER SAID, MASTER, WHAT OF TIME?
AND HE ANSWERED:
YOU WOULD MEASURE TIME THE MEASURELESS AND THE IMMEASURABLE.
YOU WOULD ADJUST YOUR CONDUCT AND EVEN DIRECT THE COURSE OF YOUR SPIRIT ACCORDING TO HOURS AND SEASONS.
OF TIME YOU WOULD MAKE A STREAM UPON WHOSE BANK YOU WOULD SIT AND WATCH IT'S FLOWING.
YET THE TIMELESS IN YOU IS AWARE OF LIFE'S TIMELESSNESS,
AND KNOWS THAT YESTERDAY IS BUT TODAY'S MEMORY AND TOMORROW IS TODAY'S DREAM.
AND THAT WHICH SINGS AND CONTEMPLATES IN YOU IS STILL DWELLING WITHIN THE BOUNDS OF THAT FIRST MOMENT WHICH SCATTERED THE STARS INTO SPACE.
WHO AMONG YOU DOES NOT FEEL THAT HIS POWER TO LOVE IS BOUNDLESS?
AND YET WHO DOES NOT FEEL THAT VERY LOVE, THOUGH BOUNDLESS, EMCOMPASSED WITHIN THE CENTRE OF HIS BEING, AND MOVING NOT FROM LOVE THOUGHT TO LOVE THOUGHT, NOR FROM LOVE DEEDS TO OTHER LOVE DEEDS?
AND IS NOT TIME EVEN AS LOVE IS, UNDIVIDED AND PACELESS?
BUT IF IN YOUR THOUGHT YOU MUST MEASURE TIME INTO SEASONS, LET EACH SEASON ENCIRCLE ALL THE OTHER SEASONS,
AND LET TODAY EMBRACE THE PAST WITH REMEMBRANCE AND THE FUTURE WITH LONGINGS.
WORDS FROM THE BOOK THE PROPHET BY:
KAHLIL GIBRAN
I JUST LOVE GREAT POETRY AND SPIRITUAL WRITINGS LIKE THE DEEPER STILL WORDS FOUND IN THIS LITTLE BOOK WRITTEN SO MANY YEARS OLD.
MAY YOUR BE FILLED WITH
TIME TO REFLECT ON LOVE
TIME TO APPRECIATE LOVE
TIME TO RECEIVE LOVE
TIME TO GIVE LOVE
TIME TO HAVE TIME!
TIME TO HEAR THE PURE VOICES OF YOUR SOUL
TIME TO SPEAK WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT AND LOVE TO OTHERS WHO NEED IT
TIME TO WATCH THE SUN RISE AND SET
TIME TO LISTEN TO THE WINTER WINDS COMING IN ON THE COAT TAIL OF AUTUMN AS THE LEAVES FALL FROM THE TREES DOING THEIR FALL DANCE
TIME TO GAZE AT THE NIGHT SKY AND LISTEN TO THE SILENCE OF THE TWINKLING STARS AND EVEN POINT AT A FEW OF THEM AND PERSONALLY NAME THEM
TIME TO THINK OF INFINITY AND WHAT LIES BEYOND THE
DARK NIGHT AND IT'S STARRY EYES
TIME TO OBSERVE THE BIRDS MIGRATING SOUTHWARD
TIME TO FEED SQUIRRELS IN A PRETTY PARK
TIME TO FIND A WATERFALL AT A REMOTE REST AREA IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE WHERE YOU CAN FEEL YOUR HEART BEAT AND HEAR EACH INHALE AND EXHALE OF AIR
TIME TO MEDIATE AND BE ONE WITH LOVE AND PURPOSE
TIME TO PRAY AND REMEMBER ALL THE BLESSINGS SO EASILY FORGOTTEN AND SWEEP AWAY FROM OUR MEMORIES LIKE DUST UNDER A RUG
TIME TO CRY AND LAUGH
TIME TO BE ME, GOD'S CREATION
TIME TO NOT LOOK AT YOUR WATCH, BECAUSE IT WILL ONLY PULL YOU BACK TO WHERE YOU DON'T REALLY WANT TO GO....
TIME TO BE FREE
TIME TO WATCH THE WAVES ROLL IN AND OUT AT THE MOUTH OF THE OCEAN
TIME TO WALK THE BEACH ON A LONELY WINTERY DAY
AND FIND TREASURES WASHED UP FOR YOUR EYES AND HANDS ONLY
TIME TO BE THANKFUL FOR EACH BREATH
EACH DAY
EACH NIGHT
TIME TO FEEL YOUR HEART AND SOUL SMILE DEEP INSIDE EACH CHANCE YOU HAVE TO GIVE AND RECEIVE LOVE
TIME IS LOVE, YOU KNOW....
I WISH YOU TIME TO LOVE AND BE LOVED!
RICH BLESSINGS YOUR WAY TODAY AS YOU STEER THROUGH YOUR LIFE AND TIME HERE ON EARTH, BUT REMEMBER TIME IS TIMELESS TO GOD...WHERE HE DWELLS THERE IS NO TIME...ONLY LOVE..DEEPER STILL LOVE...ETERNAL LOVE...IT'S A PLACE OF PEACE AND COMFORT...FOREVER IS A VERY LONG TIME!!!
