Why are we here? To love one another!
Welcome to Page 15 of Peace Manor
One of my favorite poems:
Each lifetime is the pieces of a jigsaw
puzzle.
For some there are more pieces.
For others the puzzle is more difficult
to assemble.
Some seem to be born with a nearly
completed puzzle.
And so it goes
Souls going this way and that
Trying to assemble the myriad parts.
But know this - no one has within
themselves
All the pieces to their puzzle
Like before the days when they used to
seal
Jigsaw puzzles in cellophane. Insuring
that
All the pieces were there.
Everyone carries with them at least one
and probably
Many pieces to someone else's
puzzle.
Sometimes they know it
Sometimes they don't.
And when you present your piece
Which is worthless to you,
To another, whether you know it or
not,
Whether they know it or not,
You are a messenger of the Most
High.
E-mail me, so we can exchanges pieces of
our puzzles!
JUST FOR TODAY
(I Have a Choice)
JUST FOR TODAY I will try to live
through this day only, not tackling my
whole life problem at once. I can do
something at this moment that would
appall me if I felt that I had to keep
it up for a lifetime.
JUST FOR TODAY I will try to be happy,
realizing that my happiness does not
depend on what others do or say, or what
happens around me. Happiness is a result
of being at PEACE with myself.
JUST FOR TODAY I will try to adjust
myself to what is - and not force
everything to adjust to my own desires.
I will accept my family, my friends, my
business, my circumstances as they
come.
JUST FOR TODAY I will take care of my
physical health; I will exercise my
mind; I will read something
spiritual.
JUST FOR TODAY I will do somebody a good
turn and not get found out - if anyone
knows of it, it will not count. I shall
do at least one thing I don't want to
do, and I will perform some small act of
love for my neighbor.
JUST FOR TODAY I will try to go out of
my way to be kind to someone I meet; I
will be agreeable; I will look as well
as I can, dress becomingly, talk low,
act courteously, criticize not one bit,
not find fault with anything, and not
try to improve or regulate anybody
except myself.
JUST FOR TODAY I will have a program. I
may not follow it exactly, but I will
have it. I will save myself from two
pests - hurry and indecision.
JUST FOR TODAY I will stop saying, "If I
had time." I never will "find time" for
anything. If I want time, I must take
it.
JUST FOR TODAY I will have a quiet time
of meditation wherein I shall think of
God as I understand Him, of myself, and
of my neighbor. I shall relax and seek
truth.
Just FOR TODAY I shall be unafraid.
Particularly, I shall be unafraid to be
happy, to enjoy what is good, what is
beautiful, and what is lovely in
life.
JUST FOR TODAY I will accept myself and
live to the best of my ability.
JUST FOR TODAY I choose to believe that
I can live this one day.
THE CHOICE IS MINE!*
Don't let anyone live in your head rent free!
