....To Look at the Sunny Side of Everything and Make Your Optimism Come True.

Today as I took a run on the beach and enjoyed the salty air I watched the surfers and photographers on the sand living one with nature. If you have ever spoke with a surfer after they have just caught a wave their eyes are crystal clear like they were in alignment with source. That's because they are, they feel so good out there in the water going with the flow of the current, moving down stream instead of upstream. I remember when I was in Costa Rica and a gnarly rip took me out to see and a huge set came in. My head space was thrown out of wack and I went into panic. I was unable to align myself with good thoughts and instead of surrendering I was worrying. As I finally went with the ocean instead of against the ocean I got out of the rip without ANY effort at all. I got to the beach and collapsed. To just follow this simple concept in all that we do life will bring us all that we ask for. Today when I came home from the beach I opened the wooden, gated door to see that the tree out front had sprouted its beautiful, pink flowers. Oh my gosh, how gorgeous, spring is on its way dear friends. So let us forget about the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. Let us give so much that we have no time to criticize others. Let us be too large for worry, to noble for anger, to strong for fear (FALSE EVIDENCE APPEARING REAL) and to happy to permit the presence of trouble. Let faith override courage. Faith is downstream, courage is upstream. Too Solid to be Solid.
