Your reputation is in the hands of others. That's what the reputation is. You can't control that. The only thing you can control is your character.

No storm lasts forever no matter what it is. Nature builds calmness within its storms. That's true in our own lives as well. When you reach the zenith of where you are going in your life, or in a relationship; the only place you can go is down or up. That's the nature of this universe; a cyclical thing. The seasons, the moon; everything has a cycle to it.

It's all perfect, this Universe we are in. Slow down and enjoy it all.

When you arrive where you thought you wanted to be, you'll just begin a new journey so enjoy each step along the way

I think anything that you can use to connect is fine. For some people it's meditation. For some people it's yoga. For some people, it's running. For some people, it's affirmations. For me, it's photographs and drawings, and affirmations, and statues, and crystals. I fill my writing space and I fill my home with symbols of what I think of as higher energy.

All the great teachers have left a similar message: Go within, discover your invisible higher self and know God as the love that is within you.

Every moment is an eternity in itself. Bliss is the present moment and each and everyone of us needs to understand this.
