I am all knowing, yet humble; not boisterous or loud
I am secure in my stead; not untrusting or jealous
I keep no scores of bad deeds; I’m forgiving….unrebellious
I am thankful for mine; of your’s I’m not envious
I don’t hold resentment to ferment my soul…
In-line with my spirit, it is compassion I hold!
I’m not judgmental; I allow others to be…
That which they are; so their souls might be free
Knowing we all are created from the same mighty force
Good, bad or indifferent; of the same Holy source!
I rejoice in the truth; refrain from deception…
Persevere with great hope, amid pain or rejection.
Not easily angered, remaining kind and protective…
Willing to look closely at life from another’s perspective.
I am the foundation of all Creation thereof…
I’m the most powerful, unfailing, Spirit of all
…I Am the Spirit of Love…
~Written by CordieB, Inspired by 1st Corinthian’s 13 and of course….. Love.
Quote for the Day: When I was a child, I talked like a child; I thought like a child; I reasoned like a child. As I grew, I put childish ways behind me. Then I saw but a poor reflection, as in a mirror. Now I see face to face. Then, I knew only in part. Now I know fully and I am fully known.
And now these three remain…
Faith
Hope
Love
But the greatest of these is…
LOVE
~1 Corinthians 13, The Bible
Another Quote: Knowing is realizing we don’t know it all ~CordieB.

Good by my love, my seasoned friend

always returning with outward arms

for you entice my skin to glow
through fiery storms we have discovered
we persevere; we’re endless lovers
Forget me not, even in my slumber

Love lifts the spirits, and with the lifting of the spirit comes an increase in life force energy within our entire being. These are not simply flowery woo woo proclamations.
Placing ourselves in a loving attitude has a calming, harmonizing effect on our cell physiology. It also increases circulation and has a structuring effect on the water that flows within the body, and the organizing effect on the energy field that flows around, and extends beyond it. This produces and enhances a field around us that ultimately influences what happens to us — what we actually experience — from one moment to the next. More…
Warning! I’m a little off balanced today. But don’t worry, that might just be a good thing! I used to think that being well balanced was a good thing until watching the Today Show this morning. Now, I realize that even if I am out of balance, it really isn’t that awful-because balance is not good, AT ALL. According to James Arthur Ray, “balance is bogus. . . .True happiness: it’s not about balance; it’s about harmony.”
Well thanks a lot Mr. Ray for tipping my scales this morning and throwing me WAY off balance. Just when I thought I was doing great–I was feeling well balanced, I was feeling quite happy about most of my life; along comes this expert telling me that “balance is bogus.” In fact, Ray authoritively tells us, “where there is balance , there is no energy ; nothing is happening .”
According to Ray, “In contrast, when all pieces move together in complete harmony, like the instruments in an orchestra, levels of happiness, wealth, and success soar.”
I was simply devastated! I had a hard enough time trying to get somewhat balanced; now I’ve got to strive to have everything working together like instuments in an orchestra! And guess what, Mr. Ray can show me how to obtain this harmony for only $16.47 – Imagine that! Sixteen forty seven will not even throw my checkbook out of balance! I’m only sixteen dollars and forty seven cents away from harmony, and thus ultimate happiness! I can’t wait to purchase this book. I wonder if I will be coached to sing a song in the shower and hum a melody while cooking dinner for my family. I’ll be whistling to work and keeping a harmonic rythym on my keyboard while I’m balancing harmonizing the corporate budget. Ooops, did I use the word balance again; THAT’S NOT GOOD.
When I was a girl, my parents thought it was a virtue to simply be well rounded . Now that I’m older, roundness doesn’t seem to attract anything– especially happiness from outside sources. As time went on, being grounded became the key to happiness. . . . imagine that? Going from roundedness to well grounded. Every time I tried to stay stuck to the ground, something or someone would simply push me and make me roll, because I had spent so much time practicing on being well rounded, I could easily have been mistaken for a ball.
Soon, I realized the key was not in what I did, but in what I thought. If I thought happy thoughts all the time, one could roll over me with a freight truck, and I’d still be laughing. It never happened, so I can’t really prove that theory.
After thinking all positives . . . I moved on to dressing the part. We are what we wear was the evolutionary discovery. So, I’d break my budget ensuring that I had the latest and greatest business suites to match the role of my ultimate goddest. Mind you, I was only making minimum wage. But hey, I was aiming to be the executive, so I dressed like she did! I ended up with with FAR too many credit card bills and not enough money – but I dressed fabulously! No one told me that I needed a good credit score to get into management. Silly me!
I was feeling really down and out about this, then I was monumentally informed that happiness has absolutely nothing to do with money or having a good credit score. It’s all about love and nothing else matters. I could live in a homeless shelter due to lack of money and still be really happy. This theory did help me raise my credit debt ratio though. I didn’t buy anything extravagant, because I didn’t have the credit or that kind of cash. I loved everything , even hard times. But the dissolution came when I realized that my kids were being teased in school for wearing bee bops (dollar store brand) when everyone else were wearing Nike or Reebocs. Oh my . . . I thought, If I don’t care about making a materialistic life for myself, I must at least attempt to make a balanced life for them. Bing! I had another monumental revolution! Even though money (alone) didn’t buy happiness, a little of it certainly helped. Besides, I could not bear to see those kids cry another day. It gave me headaches. Who can be happy with a headache. And plus, I kind of missed buying a nice new black pump, every so often, anyway.
After further reflection–especially since my balance method is now passé, I’m now wishing I would have stuck with the mostevolutionary discovery ever to hit the Earth. It is truly the key to HARMONY, thus HAPPINESS. If I had stuck with the concept I’m about to enlighten you about, I would not be in the disharmonized (is that a real word? It is now.) mood I’m now in. But I thought I’d come a long way, baby . . .so I gave up on this momentous, sweeping discovery. However, It is not hard to do. In fact it’s really quite easy! You don’t have to purchase a book, you don’t even have to change your thought patterns. I’m going to let you on to this long forgotten SECRET today – right here on this posting! FREE OF CHARGE!!!
Perhaps some of you can remember it . . .
I’m going back to being practicing ENGOLI ! I can bring home the bacon, fry it up in a pan, and never let him forget he’s a man. . . Cause I’m a woman! Enjoli!
Talk about HARMONY! And to think it comes in a bottle and smells joyously too! Just spray your way to happiness! Now, that’s bliss, paradise, nervana, untimate consciousness . . . oh my what’s the correct term for heaven now. I think I may be confused. Anywho . . .
Perhaps I’ll go home, have a nice meal with my family, chill with them for a bit, then get me a glass of wine and blog for a while-that’s my method for happiness and bliss, at least for today.
Happy & 
Playful
