Introverts Unite

Perfect Faith Fit

A  L  O  H  A !
Angels on Patrol


“You know you're in 
a good place when 
you no longer are 
interested in looking back. 
You prefer to 
enjoy the journey.” 
                          Karen Salmansohn

















"Opportunity often 
comes disguised in the 
form of misfortune, 
or temporary defeat."
                                 Napoleon Hill




















“And once the storm is over, 
you won’t remember how 
you made it through, 
how you managed 
to survive. But 
one thing is certain. 
When you come out 
of the storm, you 
won’t be the same 
person who walked in. 
That’s what this 
storm’s all about.” 
                      Haruki Murakami

So I was thinking. . . 


Spiritual life is like 
a marriage with 
the unknown. 

Each side gives 100%. 
Only you can act 
- or wisely NOT act - 
in any situation; 
Only you create 
your life. 

But the Higher Aspect 
flawlessly brings 
JUST the situations 
and choices that are 
perfectly suited to the 
choices and actions 
you need to make. 

It's all offered to you. 
Many opportunities 
to learn show up. But 
it's  up to you to 
see it and live it. 

While truly independent, 
we are nevertheless cared 
over protectively, and 
offered many, many chances 
to hit the mark. 

We have 100% freedom
of choosing. We are
100% cared for.
Mine is not a reformed,
or an orthodox faith;
I am paradox
ALL the way!

Have a great day;
and Thank YOU
for Your Visit!

Watching the Parade

A  L  O  H  A !
My Flower - My Feet

" Every flower is a
soul blossoming 
in nature."
                    Gerard de Nerval







My Matching Vehicles.
Which should I take today?
[Just Kidding!)

"You should never 
attribute to malice that 
which is adequately 
explained by stupidity."   
                               Hanlon's razor

If you are fortunate 
to live long enough, a
lot of what you know 
will become obsolete.

 That's why it's important 
to keep a 'beginners mind' 
in many ways. 

But you will also 
come to realize 
that being in the know
 about EVERYTHING in
our rapidly changing world
is a fruitless Sisyphean task. 

In time, we 
become wise enough 
to let some things go, 
to let some things 
pass unremarked. 

The important thing is 
to retain the wisdom 
to know when and how 
to speak, strive, or act 
at the right time. 

Thank YOU
