Endings and Beginnings!

Quote by Victor Hugo:
“There is nothing like a dream to create the future.”
What a perfect quote for my final essay on this 30th day of this 30 Day Essay writing project I began on July 3rd!  Each essay was inspired by my little Dream Quotes book, as I flipped to a new page every morning during my meditation rituals. I’ve been doing this since January 2014 when I first bought the book for inspiration to begin a new year! Four and a half years later I still love reading the same quotes over and over again, since each day when I randomly flip to a page it seems like it’s the perfect quote for that moment in time.
What I’ve learned from this project is that moments are the most important things to cherish in life, we only have the here and now, and this moment right now is all we know for sure. I’ve been doing a lot of dreaming, writing and creating this past month. I will continue to keep listening loud and clearly to my dreams every night, because I know there’s more to them than meets the physical world. The dream dimensionis a fascinating place to be, and I love going there to see the previews from my dream illustrations that will be in the book my soul is writing about my life! I love this concept and wrote an essay about it this past month, it is from one of my favorite quotes by Marsha Norman: “Dreams are illustrations from the book your soul is writing about you.”! 

I love this quote by Victor Hugo for my final essay, and I know I am creating my future as we speak when I go to sleep tonight. I will be visiting my dream dimension, and will continue to evolve creating new ideas and perspectives for my serendipitous future!
I’m very grateful for my life and for this moment in time, even though as I write this essay, here in Sedona we are experiencing a violent thunderstorm with brilliant bolts of lightning! I am so grateful to be safe and sound in my home. I send loving-kindness and compassion out to the world tonight, there are so many people that are suffering because of horrific fires and other tragedies, it is heart wrenching.  
I like that today is my final day for my essay and it’s also the beginning of a new month; August 2018. I’ve begun to design and create a new way of promoting my upcoming Zen Daily Words Website and Book; I call them: “Mars Mindful Moments”, and will be sharing daily affirmations, encouraging words, and word search puzzles, etc., on social media. We all have a few moments to enjoy some positive words and affirmations. I think it is a good way to breathe and experience serenity as we go forward in our day. I hope everyone enjoys them as much as I do! 

“Sharing is Caring” and “To Give is To Receive”!
BE LOVE, BE KIND, BE COMPASSIONATE

We are Worthy!

Quote by Henry David Thoreau:
“If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams …he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.”
Having the confidence and the courage to follow your dreams is very powerful. Momentum starts developing, and there’s no stopping it once it kicks in! Taking action to make your dreams come true takes passion and knowing that you are worthy for success. When all those characteristics line up there are no more obstacles in your way forward!
It all starts with a dream and that’s how my 30 day Essay Project began; tomorrow will be my 30th day writing and posting an essay to this blog!  I believe as a result of staying focused and disciplined, the momentum kicked in for me these past few weeks, to take action designing and creating my Zen Daily Words Book filled with inspiring affirmations, original art, my essays and word search puzzles. I’m very proud of it and I could not have done it without the courage and passion, and the momentum keeping me focused and happy doing what I loved.
Some of my personal affirmations are: to make a living doing what I love, to be successful because I know I’m talented, and I’m courageous, and I know I’m worthy! We all are worthy, we just have to take it one step at a time and have the confidence, heartfelt-passion and the courage to see our dreams blossom into reality and success!

Hope, Faith & Courage!

“Hope is a waking dream.” ~ Aristotle 

Hoping, dreaming, praying and having faith are all the things that help us get through each day of our lives. This quote has the same powerful message as: “Courage is Fear Walking.” Hope and Courage; we either have to walk through it or dream through it, but either way we live through it all with Faith.

To me the word hope is similar to the word faith which I created an acronym for when I was writing a piano song: “Faith: Fearless Attitude in thy Heart”. Having Hope and Faith gets me through each day along with my daily spiritual meditations and guidance from Quan Yin.

Of all the times I’ve flipped through my little Dream Quotes book I don’t think I’ve ever seen this quote from Aristotle, what a serendipitous event to find it today! I am actually living my dream today by publishing my book Zen Daily Words that I have dreamt about doing for quite a while now.

It’s quite miraculous when we dream something, and then we make it happen, and we take the action to have it become reality. It all starts with a little bit of Hope, Faith & Courage, and a lot of hard work. In the end it’s all worth it, especially if it makes a difference in someone else’s life for the better. My mission in life is to share loving-kindness and compassion with all. Hopefully my new inspiring book will offer many mindful moments and enjoyment for all those who read it!

 

Psychic Dreaming!

Quote by Edgar Cayce:
“Dreams are today’s answers to tomorrow’s questions.”
Sometimes I feel as if I’m a bit psychic or can see beyond the beyond! Probably in our dream dimension that is certainly the case! I know Edgar Cayce is well known for his writings on the afterlife, reincarnation, etc. He must have some insight into are dream dimensions too! He’s probably done plenty of research in that area and maybe even has some kind of indirect proof that we can dream into our future creating our life story.
I’ve been writing about Dream Quotes for almost a month now, and it’s as fascinating as ever to read these quotes and learn about what others think dreams may mean in their lives. 

I love dreaming, in fact I had some great dreams just last night, all different subjects and topics that just sort of ran into one another like a bunch of short stories in a book, it was quite interesting and fascinating! I couldn’t interpret why my mind was writing all those short essays if I tried! I only wish I could remember all of them, that’s what’s so frustrating about dreams! I don’t know why it is but sometimes we remember them so crystal clear and other times we just have a sensation or concept of what we dreamt? 

If only we could be our own DVD recording instrument in our mind, and then get to review what we were dreaming about the next day in living color! Hopefully some technology genius is working on developing a tool for this!


Here and Now!

 

Quote by James Dean:
“Dream as if you’ll live forever. Live as if you’ll die today.”
Living in the moment is really the best way to go about life. It’s all we really have control of, we can’t change the past and we can’t predict the future. Of course we can dream, make plans, have goals, take action and hope for a beautiful life. In the meantime we need to realize that life is impermanent, we don’t know how much time we have left, we need to be grateful right now, in the Here and Now and enjoy life to the fullest.
The Buddhist way of life teaches us to be mindful of each moment in all that we do whether it is eating, walking, talking, thinking, meditating, etc. We need to be in the moment focused on pursuing our dreams wholeheartedly. While we are mindful that life is impermanent, we will live a full life in every moment that we breathe and our heart is beating.
Quiet the mind, breathe in peace, breathe out love, and focus on this one moment in time. Tomorrow will take care of itself; it is completely out of our control. Yesterday is gone, we can’t relive history, now is all that truly matters.
I am reminded of this excerpt from a quote by Kahlil Gibran: “yesterday is but today’s memory and tomorrow is today’s dream” meaning we need to live in the moment, and never stop dreaming since none of us knows when our time will be up.
