shared some quotes on her journal - they were all awesome, but  this one positively made me swoon (so - must share)  Funny how a few words can turn a light on inside you - it's really cool!


Your life is something opaque, not transparent, as long as you look at it in an ordinary human way.
But if you hold it up against the light of God's goodness, it shines and turns transparent, radiant and bright.
And then you ask yourself in amazement: Is this really my own life I see before me?
~Albert Schweitzer


This also reminded me that I'm a perfect reflection of the universe ..... sometimes I forget (and I don't know why)

I got this from [profile] dragonflower9 page.  I couldn't figure out  how to get memories on her page, so I just copied it.  
Sometimes I think "The Secret" is too materialistic - always about what you can get from the principles.  I do think this explanation is universal though.  Substitute "world peace" or "community harmony" - and the theory also applies.  
I especially like the whole idea of BEING GRATEFUL FOR WHAT YOU ALREADY HAVE.  I like how dragonflower9 is doing her Attitude of Gratitude posts.  I don't have a problem being grateful, but I think it will be helpful to do this weekly - fun too.

"You have got to feel good about money to attract more to you. 
Understandably, when people don't have enough money they do not feel good about money, because they don't  have enough. 
But those negative feelings about money are stopping more money coming to you! 
You have got to stop the cycle, and you stop it by starting to feel good about money, and being grateful for what you have. 
Start to say and
feel,
"I have more than enough." "There is an abundance of money and it's on its way to me." "I am a money magnet." "I love money and money loves me." "I am receiving money every day." "Thank you. Thank you. Thank you."

Not much of a Mother's day since my kiddo isn't here, but I managed to entertain myself.

Riding mower still on the blink.  Asked a friend if her hubby would help teach me how to clean out the carberetor, but they were MIA.  I dropped by their house to bring them some veggies from the garden.  He said he'd come by Tuesday.

I had mowing on the agenda, so I got out the electric mower to do the job.  It took a long time (the mower cutting width is 18"), but I got everything but the back pasture cut! The 100 foot cord plus about 12 feet thanks to two power strips was enough to just get the job done (by the skin of my teeth).  They say don't go over 100ft extension cord, but I just needed a smidgen more.....  I wouldn't want to mow this way all the time, but It's good to know the electric mower will work in a pinch.

I ate fresh organic cucumbers for lunch.  First ones of the year, and they were good!.  From now until about t July I should have plenty for me and all friends. After that it'll probably be too hot for the blooms to stay on.  I'll plant again middle part of August for fall cukes.

Started watching What the Bleep Down the Rabbit Hole.  So far seems simply a re-hash of the original (the dramatic sections are even copies of original..... guess they were on a budget).  I liked the interviews on the flip of disc 1.  I'm on disc 2 now which seems pretty much the same stuff as disk 1............I'm confused.  
I'm a huge Alan Watts fan, and the ideas in these shows isn't new to me.  I like hearing all sides and all ideas - very exciting stuff to ponder.
Speaking of Watts; I received the CD I ordered from Amazon - will begin listening to it soon.
