Word for the Day: Monday, November 30, 2009

The Word for Today is Comfort.

(Note that it's funny that I woke up with a short burst of lower abdominal pain! LOL!)

All I can say about the word itself is that the trick is to look for Inner Comfort (or make it yourself), rather than hoping that the people outside of yourself "make you comfortable".

Word for the Day, Sunday, November 29, 2009

The Word for Today is Nourishment.

This is a natural, as it goes so well with Cultivation, our theme for the week. In other words, cultivate nourishment. Among other things, this is a good time to improve your diet. (And I've noticed that these words continue to affect me for days after the day "owned" by the word. The same thing occurs regularly with Astrological Transits).

For the Michael students among you, today corresponds with Warrior/Server/Server, address 99 on the Truth side of a Michael DNA Entity chart. The "Theme" is also called "Global Job" and the "Word" is also called "Community Responsibility".

Happy holidays, folks!

Weekly Theme, Week of 11/29 to 12/05/2009

The Theme for this Week is Cultivation.

Usually, this word brings up visions of farms and ranches. However, you can also cultivate spirituality in your life, for example, with a competent meditation or yoga practice.

Please note that this marks the beginning of the third [49 day] Month of the [343 day] Truth year. The month has a Warrior flavor, so heads up that it's unlikely to be restful.

Word for the Day: Saturday, November 28, 2009

The Word for Today is Prosperity.

Hey! I could use some of that, since I had, in effect, $2.12 in my Checking Account for a week. But that's me. Let me talk about you.

Prosperity doesn't only mean money. You can also have a prosperous mind, meaning that you think in a wide, open manner and others wish they knew what you know. (That can help with money too, indirectly).

Live Long and Prosper.

Friday, November 27, 2009

Word for the Day: Friday, November 27, 2009

The Word for Today is Liberation.

There can be lots of things to be liberated from, including Republicans. (Especially when they are against real health care).

Thursday, November 26, 2009

Word for the Day: Thursday, November 26, 2009

The Word for Today is Wisdom.

Today is Thanksgiving. The best Word might have been Gratitude, but it was the word for last Thursday. But guess what? You are perfectly free to give thanks today, even if it's not the word for the day. ;-)

Have a Wise Thanksgiving!

Wednesday, November 25, 2009

Word for the Day: Wednesday, November 25, 2009

The Word for Today is Impartiality.

Do we have any news companies in the United States that truly qualify?

I will state that this is a Scholar quality. (But even they have trouble with it. Trust me on that!)

Tuesday, November 24, 2009

Word for the Day: Tuesday, November 24, 2009

The Word for Today is Consequence.

Equal and opposite action. What you sow, you reap. I can go on, but the Law of Karma comes through here.

For example, the Health Care debate. Don't these Republicans have constituencies? Aren't some of them without health care? What are we going to have in 2010? 80+ percent democrats in the House? A plurality of Democrats in the Senate?

I'm fed up with this. I'm planning to come to the news networks to debate some of these Republicans. Consequence? You betcha!

Monday, November 23, 2009

Word for the Day: Monday, November 23, 2009

The Word for Today is Elimination.

So what have you been doing that has not worked well? Can any of that be eliminated?

Have a great week.

Sunday, November 22, 2009

Word for the Day: Sunday, November 22, 2009

The Word for Today is Self-Reliance.

This word goes well with this week's theme. In other words, "I choose to be self-reliant".

Weekly Theme: Week of November 22-28, 2009

The Theme for this Week is Choice.

Everyone must choose to live. Simple as that! Choose a good quality of life, also.

Saturday, November 21, 2009

Word for the Day: Saturday, November 21, 2009

The Word for Today is Expansion.

Once again, good Expansion is Spiritual expansion. Bad expansion is expansion around the middle. :-)

Friday, November 20, 2009

Words for the Day: Friday, November 20, 2009

The Words for Today are Trust and Faith.

First, FAITH came to me in a class as "Father And I Together Here", Father meaning the one in the Holy Trinity.

However, Trust is something that has to be earned, not demanded, like governments and religions try.

These two words must go together somehow, or the Michael Teachings wouldn't have put them like that today. But I still have trouble figuring that out. Comments are welcome.

Thursday, November 19, 2009

Word for the Day: Thursday, November 19, 2009

The Word for Today is Gratitude.

Goodness, but we are a week off. Wouldn't it have been great if this were the word for the day for Thursday, November 26, 2009?

But it doesn't have to be Thanksgiving Day to be grateful for something. Make everyday Thanksgiving!

Wednesday, November 18, 2009

Word for the Day: Wednesday, November 18, 2009

The Word for Today is Equality.

Who wants equal? People usually want more than that. (But "equal" could be seen as a stepping stone to "better than").

Equal opportunity for all!

Tuesday, November 17, 2009

Word for the Day: Tuesday, November 17, 2009

The Word for Today is Prudence.

When I think of this word, I think of prunes. I do not know why.

The best approach to life is to think before speaking or acting.

Monday, November 16, 2009

Word for the Day: Monday, November 16, 2009

The Word for Today is Innocence.

This is a word I have trouble taking seriously, because, for example, "the majority of people in prison claim they are innocent".

I believe that the Michael meaning of this word goes more with, "the Innocence of children", than court cases.

Sunday, November 15, 2009

Word for the Day: Sunday, November 15, 2009

The Word for Today is Forgiveness.

Some people equate forgiveness with amnesia. I don't, as traumatic experiences rarely are forgotten, unless they are so traumatic as to be ingrained in only the Subconscious memories.

So what constitutes real forgiveness? My feeling is giving forth, as in to give forth love.

Weekly Themes: Week of November 15-21, 2009

The Themes for this Week are Transition and Transformation.

The difference between these words appear to me to be scale: Transition includes the small changes we go through every day/week/month. Transformation is more personal and includes the major life-changing events.

So have fun transforming your transitions.

Saturday, November 14, 2009

Word for the Day: Saturday, November 14, 2009

The Word for Today is Authenticity.

Authentic, verses counterfeit? How would a "counterfeit person" look and feel like?

This may start getting a bit old, but, like other traits, the most important person to feel Authentic to is yourself.

Friday, November 13, 2009

Word for the Day: Friday, November 13, 2009

The Word for Today is Interpretation.

How would one interpret the word, Interpretation? Linguistic tool? Tool for Spirituality? Both?

Come to think of it, how would a person interpret Friday, the 13th?

Thursday, November 12, 2009

Word for the Day: Thursday, November 12, 2009

The Word for Today is Socialization.

To be social means to relate to other people, a task that I'm learning to do.

Who was it who said, "No person is an island unto him/herself"?

Wednesday, November 11, 2009

Word for the Day: Wednesday, November 11, 2009

The Word for Today is Concentration.

This is a trait that I use when I need to deal with details. It can help me to focus.

Where I need it the most (but often forget) is when people are introducing themselves to me. (Names? Who needs them! LOL!)

Tuesday, November 10, 2009

Word for the Day: Tuesday, November 10, 2009

The Word for Today is Acceptability.

Like I've said before, the person most important to be acceptable to is yourself. I can't stress this enough.

To be acceptable to others, think before you speak or act.

Monday, November 9, 2009

Word for the Day: Monday, November 9, 2009

The Word for Today is Generosity.

It feels good to me to be generous. Since I don't have much money, I'm generous with honest praise, as well as generous with my smiles.

Be generous today!

Sunday, November 8, 2009

Word for the Day: Sunday, November 8, 2009

The Word for Today is Sharing.

This can be small (sharing a smile with another human) or big (sharing something very expensive with your "significant other").

Do you notice how much better you can feel when you share yourself with others?

Weekly Themes: Week of November 8-14, 2009

The Themes for this Week are Precipitation and Initiation.

The first of these reminds me of weather reports. (And boy, oh BOY is Seattle "precipating"!)

Both of these have to do with doing new things, but Initiation is more self directed, whereas Precipation has things sort of "dropping in" to you.

Whatever you do, please have fun doing it!

Saturday, November 7, 2009

Words for the Day: Saturday, November 7, 2009

The Words for Today are Overview and Perspective.

These are big concepts for me, as well as my "home Community Responsibility". Both of these words suggest "looking at the Big Picture", without getting lost in too many details.

In other words, I look at the forest, often missing the trees.

Friday, November 6, 2009

Word for the Day: Friday, November 6, 2009

The Word for Today is Reflection.

What sort of Reflection do you see when you look in a mirror? Are you comfortable with what you see? Can you say, "BFF -- Best Friend Forever"? I sure couldn't say that for much of my life!

Another sort of Reflection is what is in the Bible: As above, so below. That "perspective leap" is what I am learning right now.

Thursday, November 5, 2009

Word for the Day: Thursday, November 5, 2009

The Word for Today is Study.

The funny thing: I remember a lot of studying when in school. However, when functioning as an adult human being, study seems to only occur sparingly. (For example, if I were to move to a new state, studying the traffic laws before taking the written test at the Department of Motor Vehicles).

Now, that said, I find studying life and consciousness fascinating!

Wednesday, November 4, 2009

Word for the Day: Wednesday, November 4, 2009

The Word for Today is Absorption.

Goodness gracious, but that sponge again! Do you know that the original Sponge is actually a living creature from the ocean? (I wonder if the Deva for the Sponge is of the Scholar role).

Tuesday, November 3, 2009

Word for the Day: Tuesday, November 3, 2009

The Word for Today is Review.

Boy, oh BOY am I in a major Life Review episode right now.

Hopefully, none of you will need the intensity. But a little review goes a long way. (Especially if you are in School and getting ready for an exam).

Monday, November 2, 2009

Word for the Day: Monday, November 2, 2009

The Word for Today is Experimentation.

Perhaps I've done more of this than I should have in this lifetime.

But boy, oh BOY is it fun! Experiment on!

Sunday, November 1, 2009

Word for the Day: Sunday, November 1, 2009

The Word for Today is Recognition.

A special form of Recognition is called Deja Vu. That is where reality itself might be caught in the act of creating itself.

Of course, it's always a good idea to recognize people around you who have, either directly or indirectly, helped make your life _____________. (Replace the underlines with the details of how your life went better/more interesting/more comfortable/etc).

Weekly Theme: Week of November 1-7, 2009

The Theme for this Week is Discovery.

This is a Scholar trait, which led, in the 1400's on to explore "strange new lands", such as North America. Of course, some of them went a bit far (hello Columbus!)

What can you discover this week?
