Meditation

Hello Everyone,

I have this one particular person in my life that just simply amazes me with her positive outlook on everything in life, no matter what challenges she may be faced with and she has had some really tough times, including becoming a widow at the age of 35 with four children, much tougher than anything I have ever experienced.  I always look to her for guidance and support and she always seems to have the answers although most of the time she says to me after I poured my heart out about my worries, "It's okay".  Seems silly but most of the time, it is okay.  She is someone that I certainly look at as a "Wise Person" and I do desire to be able to achieve the level of health that she has with her mind and spirit.  She was my focus for this meditation exercise and I enjoyed reflecting on her and trying to absorb some of her light.  I plan to continue to meditate by using multiple options because they all seem to focus on a certain areas of life so that one area is as strong as the next in order to achieve overall health and wholeness. 

The phrase "one cannot lead another where one has not gone himself" makes sense and is very much true no matter what the subject is.  If one is going to lead a team, they must be a good example of whatever the subjective and objective is in order to achieve optimal results.

  1. Jacqui,
    Looks like your Aesclepius has really had a big influence in your life. With such positive influences in our lives, we can become better and thus transform the world. I also believe that they are able to influence us because of what they have been through and thus they are a perfect example of what it means using the phrase "one cannot lead another where one has not gone himself". We too should be able to get to that level that we want to lead others to.

  2. Hi Jacqui,
    What a treasure to have someone like that in your life! I agree with you that using the different meditation techniques is key to covering all that we need to deal with.
    Take care,

  3. Hi Jacqui! I think that it is great to have a person in your life like that, it is always healthy to stay positive. I, for the most part, am a positive person, being around negative people drags me down and tires me spiritually, it is just a waste of energy. You have a good friend!
