From Neale, I thought it was something to think about :-)

On this day of your life, I believe God wants you to know that peace is not merely a distant goal that we seek,
but a means by which we arrive at that goal.

Martin Luther King Jr. said that, and he was right. And
his wisdom holds true not only for peace in our world,
but for peace within ourselves.

All of our spiritual traditions teach the same thing. To
achieve peace, be peace. Yet how does one be what
one is wishing to experience? By a sheer act of Will.

And…by causing others to experience what you wish
to experience.

And by this I don´t mean we should have a boring sunday, we can still have adventures, but we should stop killing each other :-)

Reading more Gibran and found another beautiful thing he wrote :-)

——————
And now you ask in your heart, “How shall we distinguish that which is good in pleasure from that which is not good?”

Go to your fields and your gardens, and you shall learn that it is the pleasure of the bee to gather honey of the flower,

But it is also the pleasure of the flower to yield its honey to the bee.
For to the bee a flower is a fountain of life,
And to the flower a bee is a messenger of love,
And to both, bee and flower, the giving and the receiving of pleasure is a need and an ecstasy.
People of Orphalese, be in your pleasures like the flowers and the bees.

have started read about Job .. very interesting :-)
——————————
The Book of Job helps us to understand the following: Satan cannot bring financial and physical destruction upon us unless it is by God’s permission. God has power over what Satan can and cannot do. It is beyond our human ability to understand the “why’s” behind all the suffering in the world. The wicked will receive their just dues. We cannot always blame our suffering and sin on our lifestyles. Suffering may sometimes be allowed in our lives to purify, test, teach or strengthen the soul. God remains enough, deserves and requests our love and praise in all circumstances of life.

Love One Another

Love one another, but make not a bond of love.
Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other's cup, but drink not from one cup.
Give one another of your bread, but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone.
Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping.
For only the hand of life can contain your hearts.
And stand together, yet not too near together.
For the pillars of the temple stand apart.
And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.

Wisdom of Do Nothing / Adyashanti

About being a warrior … we all are in different ways :-)
We have sorrow and pain and happiness in our life.
It makes us become a deeper and more understanding person I think. We can only understand another person when we have walked in their shoes.
All the things we are forced to survive in different ways makes us stronger (if we don´t die from it).
I have had things happen in my life which I couldn´t choose such as sickness and accidents.
I think it has a meaning and I have learned by theese painful experinces.

So I´m thankful for theese expierences, because it has learned me a lot.
