Aphorisms For a Self Determined, Purposeful and Happy Life

Make a daily habit out of being heroic if even in little ways. You’ll end up being a saint or a Bodhisattva who are the real heroes of the world anyway.

Graciously grant beingness to everyone and everything unless they’re being harmfully stupid or enslaving.

Wake up and stop being a slave, stand up on your own hind legs and be a freedom fighter and an evolutionary soldier/artist for love, beauty, laughs and human betterment.

“Bless the beasts and the children” they love despite being chained to their appetites, and also show us the way toward Grace which is openness to the newness and nowness of the moment combined with an unflagging determination and duty to go, to grow, to flow…..and then to find the soft spot to nap.

Contemplate the revelation before and around you, it’s so much more beautiful and interestingly diverse than some internal or external distraction that only dissipates the greatest gift the cosmos has ever granted us, our own conscious awareness.

Life gets boring…unless you look at what’s in the moment.

Having a purpose makes you happy. Having an ethical purpose makes you really happy….and keeps you out of the slammer.

Banking is too important not to be guided by and integrated with, Grace as in Gifting.

Entrepreneurship and business is already woefully burdened with reversing thermo-dynamics, so give it as many breaks and gifts….as it gives to the consumer.

Monetary Grace as in gifting can literally transform business gravity into escape velocity, turn drudgery into duty and fun, and create a genuine partnership with the consumer instead of simply making him/her a mark.

Corporations are not, and will not be people….until they bow to Grace.

Politics is rank amateur theater. It must be replaced by the drama and comedy of Life and be guided by duty and the resolving power of Grace.

Where would we be without the arts?……in a perpetually rainy day.

Where would we be without Sport?…..at each other’s throats and plagued by obesity by the end of adolescence…..instead of by our twenties with Monsanto etc. making our food.

Everything is a gift. Wake up to it, accept it, and pass some of it around.  Everybody deserves a break, and grace as in gifting is so mentally and virally powerful it could kill off 95% of personal unhappiness and nearly all of our economic problems in about a month.

Faith, Hope and Love are wonderful experiences. Just add action and you’ve got Grace too.

Integration is two apparently opposing ideas, theories or systems combined and that  is Wisdom. Flow and process is that integration plus action which is a third and  unified state known as Grace.
