Ponderings #42


Dear fellow travelers,
I thank you again for your comments, responses, and concerns. 
I received one that said to "pass it on" and it is  so good, I decided to do just that.
I usually write the Ponderings but this is written by someone else and I don't have the writers name. 
The Layman's Ten Commandments

1.  Prayer is not a spare tire that you pull out when in trouble, but it is a  "steering wheel" that directs you on your right path throughout your journey

2.  So why is a car's Windshield so large and the Rear View Mirror smaller?
Because our past is not as important as our Now and our future. Keep looking and moving ahead.

3. Friendship is like a book.    It may only take a minute or so to destroy, but takes much longer to create.  Treat it with care

4.  All things in life are temporary,  If going well, enjoy it,  and if going in a different direction, you may have the choice and can decide to change the direction,  but all things and situations don't last.  Everything at some time changes.

5.  Long term  friends are  Gold!  New friends are Diamonds, but never forget the Gold,  Because to hold a Diamond you may need the Gold support.

6.  Often when we lose hope and think this is the end.  You can relax, because it may be just a valley,  never give up.

7.  When you think that the creator has solved your problem,  you have faith in its ability, when you think you have solved your problem,  you have faith in yourself.
Both are important. 

8.  A blind person asked St Anthony.  "Can there be anything worst than losing your eye sight?"   He relied "Yes, losing your vision".

9,  When you pray for others, you bless and honor them. and when you are in need or support and then feel good,  someone has prayed for you.  Its a reciprocal universe.

10. Worrying does not take away tomorrows challenges, it take away today's peace. 

Just Pondering on concepts
