In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity - Albert Einstein

Last week i was down with the stomach flu, and consequently was too tired and weak to do any work. On that same day, these words from my "Words of Inspiration" mailer which I have auto programmed weeks beforehand appeared in my inbox: "In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity - Albert Einstein" What great timing I thought!

Though I spent a lot of time inspecting the sewage system, I also had lots of opportunities for bed rest. And sleep I did, something I don't do a lot of.

I am now almost at 100% and feel really grateful for the unplanned longer than usual weekend break. Opportunities abound!

The negative ego matrix

My 22 month old daughter has been displaying signs that indeed one does not have to be exposed to negativity through others or the media in order to operate from negativity! She is at the phase where she is very willful and will pinch and hit whenever she doesn't get her way. Where did she get these influences from?

The negative ego matrix is indeed ever present in mass consciousness. And my daughter is a victim of it. For as long as she doesn't know how to own her personal power, and not be victimised by her subconscious mind and her emotional body, she will be pulled and pushed by the negative ego matrix to do its little will. I know this is a challenge for all parents of small children.

Because my daughter does not have a capacity to own her personal power, we as her parents have to do it for her. So, guess what the little one was surprised by when she hit or pinched - She got a minute time out! She got to stand next to our statue of Kuan Yin for one minute. Reasoning with a 1-2 year old obviously does not work, so 'time out' seems like a reasonable cause of action for now. I was quite surprised she understood the concept of time out and that she knew immediately that, that scratch she gave mummy is totally unacceptable and inappropriate. She is slowly beginning to get out of the habit of hitting, pinching, scratching, everytime she raises her little arm to strike, she realises that it is inappropriate behaviour and immediately softens and instead gently touches my arm.

One up for Christ/Buddhic/Spiritual/God consciousness!

Looking at life through the lens of humour

Someone sent this to me today...it's quite funny: "I know God will not give me anything that I can't handle. I just wish He didn't trust me so much." -Mother Teresa of Calcutta

I've heard the first line but not the second.

I think Mother Theresa is one cool Master!
