I intend to make these Collected Wisdom posts a “thing” here. It remains to be seen whether they’ll be “regularly scheduled” or simply “as the Spirit moves me” but they will be frequent. (Hold me to that, please, dear Regular Readers!)

Ash Ambirge waxed eloquent (as usual) about “How to be a Human” this week. http://www.themiddlefingerproject.org/how-to-be-a-human-being/
… and incredibly apropos of That^^^ is this one from Jeff Hayden, a business blogger(!) at Inc.com: http://www.inc.com/jeff-haden/the-power-of-small-moments.html

DonnaOnTheBeach has been keeping track of her adventures in “Riding Wild Donkeys” … a metaphor for carving out a large-ish chunk of time and attention (like hours, or even days Oh My!) to work exclusively on Your Big Project. Start here: http://www.donnaonthebeach.com/blog/2012/10/whos-going-to-ride-the-wild-donkeys/ #2 is at http://www.donnaonthebeach.com/blog/2012/10/tips-from-a-wild-donkey-rider/ And here’s #3: http://www.donnaonthebeach.com/blog/2012/10/onthebeach-when-the-critical-voice-goes-bananas/

Into the stream of “mindful language” comes this from “the goddess known as Jacqueline Gates” : http://www.jacqueline-gates.com/how-to-get-money-to-pour-in ~ Pay more attention to where your money *comes from* and stress less about where it’s going! (I followed her home from a comment she left, but I have no idea where… This happens often in my world
)

And a closing thought, provided by my friend Merril:
“I know not all that may be coming, but be it what it will, I’ll go to it laughing.”
― Herman Melville, Moby Dick(Thursday was Moby Dick‘s 161st anniversary)

I read Ash’s post. Amazing guy!
I also read Jacqui’s post. Gratitude for what we receive is key!
Thanks for the links.

Yep!
And being creative when we look for our gratitude – lots of experiences don’t feel worthy of our gratitude -at first- until we can step back a bit from the hurt, and look at it from a different direction.

The scriptures state that we shall not teach unless we have the spirit of revelation with us, so post as the Spirit directs
