Thought for the Day
When viewing or thinking a thought, always clarify it for the value of its logic and reason; divest it of imagination, mystery, and all falseness; see the clear intent, whether constructive or otherwise, and never compromise with illogicality; a statement is, or is not. See it for what it really is, and do not attempt to clothe it with personality; this is what so often leads to jumping to conclusions and self-pity.

What a Wonderful World (excerpt)
Life's purpose is in recognizing the very simple everyday laws that determine whether we fall or we rise, whether we energize or we deplete, whether we grow or whether we degenerate, because there is no standing still in nature. We may appear to pause momentarily as we rest, but if we rest too long then we find that the resting turns into deterioration. We cannot just sit around and wait for some wonderful thing in nature to do it all for us. We may be any age, from young to old. We may be at any level of mental understanding but as long as there is breath there is potential; as long as there is happiness there is growth.
Our purpose is understood through knowledge and application of the Mathematical Principle. Our purpose becomes clearer as we understand the relationship of the individual to the bigger picture. Our lives become more enjoyable as we find the joy of living to the Principle. The release of happiness comes from just doing what comes naturally according to the Principle.
Within the realization of Principle, the recognition of truth is the energy to grow and change. By studying, applying, by thinking, we find the very source that is necessary to bring that potential into the complete unfoldment of our spiritual purpose.
