Genuine Tea/Coffee Drinking

"When you sit in a café, with a lot of music in the background and a lot of projects in your head, you're not really drinking your coffee or your tea. You're drinking your projects, you're drinking your worries. You are not real, and the coffee is not real either. Your coffee can only reveal itself to you as a reality when you go back to your self and produce your true presence, freeing yourself from the past, the future, and from your worries. When you are real, the tea also becomes real and the encounter between you and the tea is real. This is genuine tea drinking."

We all need a few of these a day.........Good laughs!

Wal-Mart vs. the Morons...........


 
 
 


Wal-Mart vs. the Morons

1..
Americans spend $36,000,000 at Wal-Mart every hour 
of every day. 

2.. 
This works out to 
$20,928 every minute! 

3. 
Wal-Mart will sell more from January 1 to 
St... 
Patrick's Day (March 17th) than Target sells all year. 

4. 
Wal-Mart is bigger than 
Home Depot + Kroger + 
Target + Sears + Costco + K-Mart combined... 

5.
Wal-Mart employs 1.6 million people, is the world's
 
largest private employer, and most speak English. 

6. 
Wal-Mart is the largest company in the history of the world. 

7. 
Wal-Mart now sells more food than 
Kroger and 
Safeway combined, and keep in mind they did this in only fifteen years.. 

8. 
During this same period, 31 big supermarket chains
 
sought bankruptcy. 

9. 
Wal-Mart now sells more food than any other store
 in the world. 

10. 
Wal-Mart has approx. 3,900 stores in the USA of 
which 2,906 are Super Centers; this is 1,000 more than it had five years ago... 

11. 
This year 7.2 billion different purchasing 
experiences will occur at Wal-Mart stores. 
(Earth's population is 
approximately 6.5 Billion.) 

12. 
90% of all Americans live within fifteen miles of
 a Wal-Mart. 

13. 
Wal-Mart has gross sales that total more than the total revenue of all the countries in the world,
 except 6. 


You may think that I am complaining, but I am really laying the ground work for suggesting that 
MAYBE we should hire the 
guys who run Wal-Mart to fix the economy. 

This should be read and understood by all Americans 
Democrats, Republicans, EVERYONE!! 

To the President and all 535 voting members 
of the Legislature, both parties. 

It is now official - 
you are ALL corrupt morons: 

a. 
The U.S. Postal Service was established in 1775. 
You have had 234 years to get it right 
and it is broke.
 

b. 
Social Security was established in 1935. 
You have had 74 years to get it right 
and it is broke.
 

c.. 
Fannie Mae was established in 1938.
You have had 71 years to get it right 
and it is broke.
 

d. 
War on Poverty started in 1964. 
You have had 45 years to get it right;
$1 trillion 
of our money is confiscated each year 
and transferred to "the poor" 
and they only want more.
 

e. 
Medicare and Medicaid were established in 1965. 
You have had 44 years to get it right
and they are broke.
 

f. 
Freddie Mac was established in 1970. 
You have had 39 years to get it right 
and it is broke.
 

g. 
The Department of Energy was created in 1977 to 
lessen our dependence on foreign oil. 
It has ballooned to 16,000 employees with a 
budget of $24 billion a year 
and we import more oil than ever before. 
You had 32 years to get it right 
and it is an abysmal failure.
 


!!!You have FAILED !!! 
In every "government service" you have shoved down our throats while overspending our tax dollars. 

AND YOU WANT AMERICANS 
TO BELIEVE YOU CAN BE TRUSTED 
WITH A GOVERNMENT-RUN HEALTH CARE SYSTEM ?? 

YOU THINK YOU CAN RUN THE 
AUTO INDUSTRY.... THE BANKING SYSTEM????? 


MAYBE WE OUGHT TO KICK YOUR EGG-HEAD BUDDY BUMS OUT OF OFFICE AND 
HIRE WAL-MART TO RUN THE GOVERNMENT ???
 


WAL-MART
 SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO RUN A BUSINESS.... 
WHY DON'T YOU GUYS JUST ADMIT 
IT'S WAY BEYOND YOUR PAY GRADE, AND QUIT? 



Folks, keep this circulating. 
It is very well stated. 
Maybe it will end up in the e-mails of some of our "duly elected' 
and their staff will clue them in on how Americans feel. 


"You can't fix stupid, but you can vote it out."

Anger makes you ugly

 "Whenever anger comes up, take out a mirror and look at yourself. When you are angry, you are not very beautiful."

"What we think, we become."

"What we think, we become."

 

  ~The B


We have great difficulty being aware that we are alive only in the Present Moment

"We can smile, breathe, walk, and eat our meals in a way that allows us to be in touch with the abundance of happiness that is available. We are very good at preparing to live, but not very good at living. We know how to sacrifice ten years for a diploma and we are willing to work very hard to get a job, a car, a house, and so on. But we have difficulty remembering that we are alive in the present moment, the only moment there is for us to be alive."

Nothing out own in midst of Abundance

Walk in wisdom...virtue...pure mind

  "Just as treasures are uncovered from the earth, so virtue appears from good deeds, and wisdom appears from a pure and peaceful mind. To walk safely through the maze of human life, one needs the light of wisdom and the guidance of virtue."

Holding anger burns the holder

It’s Only Temporary

It's Only Temporary
TODAY'S SCRIPTURE
"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all"
(2 Corinthians 4:17, NIV)
TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria
Aren't you glad that your troubles and trials are only temporary? In fact, today's verse tells us they are momentary. Compared with eternity, our troubles don't last long at all! As you stand strong in faith during times of adversity, scripture says that you are achieving eternal glory. When you confess your trust and reliance on God, you are passing the test.
If you are in the middle of tough times today, look to Jesus! The Bible says that He is the Author and Finisher of your faith. He is the one who writes faith on your heart and then develops it to completion on the inside of you. Your part is to open your heart and choose words of faith and victory.
Remember, your words set the course for your life. As you remind yourself that your troubles are only momentary and confess your trust and hope in Him, you will see His hand moving in your life. Focus on that eternal glory every day. As you do, you'll move forward in victory and experience all He has for you!
A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Heavenly Father, thank You for working Your eternal glory in me. I cast my cares on You, knowing that my trials and troubles are only temporary. Thank You for Your eternal blessing on my life today and always in Jesus' name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen

It's all in your mind


It's All in Your Mind

"Do not be conformed to this world (this age), [fashioned after and adapted to its external, superficial customs], but be transformed (changed) by the [entire] renewal of your mind..."
(Romans 12:2, AMP)
TODAY'S WORD from Joel and Victoria

Many people today don't realize that the reason they're not happy, the reason they're not enjoying life is simply because they've trained their minds in the wrong direction. They've trained their minds to worry. They've trained their minds to complain. They've trained their minds to see the negative. But just as you can form these negative mindsets, you can retrain your mind according to the Word of God and form godly mindsets.

I believe one of the main keys to retraining your mind and developing a positive attitude is by learning to stay grateful. When you stay grateful, you are focusing on what's right rather than what's wrong. The seed of the Word takes root in the good ground of your heart. This doesn't happen automatically, you have to discipline yourself. You have to make a conscious effort every single day until a good habit is formed.

Remember, when you live with an attitude of praise and thanksgiving, you are shielding yourself from the attacks of the enemy. The seeds of discouragement cannot take root in a grateful heart. Neither can bitterness, envy or strife. So today, retrain your mind and be empowered with His strength to overcome in every area of your life!

A PRAYER FOR TODAY
Father in heaven, today I surrender my thoughts and mind to You. Help me retrain my thoughts so that they are in line with Your Word. I choose to have an attitude of faith and expectancy and thank You for empowering me to live the life You have for me in Jesus' name. Amen.
— Joel & Victoria Osteen
