Words for the Day: Sunday, August 17, 2014
The Words for Today (Sunday) are Patience and Tolerance, both of which are helpful in life, in general, but especially when taking on either meaning of Husbandry (our Theme).
Weekly Theme: Week of August 17-23, 2014
The Theme for this Week is Husbandry. I found something interesting, when I asked Google for the definition: Meaning number one, "the care, cultivation, and breeding of crops and animals", included last week's Theme, "Cultivation". But there's more, including what appears to be a requirement for physical strength, yes, but even more than that. Let's see what happens, when this is related to the Words, for the days of this week.
Saturday, August 16, 2014
Word for the Day: Saturday, August 16, 2014
The
Word for Today (Saturday) is Acknowledgement. I like to acknowledge
those, who help cultivate many of the prior Words for this Week.
Especially ones like Thoughtfulness and Kindness. Thanks to all of you.
Friday, August 15, 2014
Word for the Day: Friday, August 15, 2014
The
Word for Today (Friday) is Kindness. So how DO you cultivate kindness?
A great start would be to perform a random, senseless act of kindness,
at least once, daily.
Thursday, August 14, 2014
Word for the Day: Thursday, August 14, 2014
The
Word for Today (Thursday) is Encouragement. Cultivating encouragement?
Encouraging cultivation? This can definitely work in both directions.
Just be careful not to encourage bad behavior.
Wednesday, August 13, 2014
Word for the Day: Wednesday, August 13, 2014
The
Word for Today (Wednesday) is Thoughtfulness. Here's one, where I
firmly believe that, for me to cultivate it in others, I must develop,
and maintain it in myself. For example, think before you speak and/or
act. Simple as that.
Word for the Day: Tuesday, August 12, 2014
The
Word for Yesterday (Tuesday) was Support. How do you cultivate support?
How about beginning by supporting others? In some cases, the Support
ends up going both directions. In other cases, just the fact that you
support others, brings you support, straight from the Universe.
Monday, August 11, 2014
Word for the Day: Monday, August 11, 2014
The
Word for Today (Monday) is Comfort. So, how DO you cultivate comfort?
Proper furniture might be a good start. Then, a combination heater /
air conditioner, to keep temperatures in a comfort range. Proper
friendships are also helpful.
Sunday, August 10, 2014
Word for the Day: Sunday, August 10, 2014
The Word for Today (Sunday) is Nourishment. What does it mean to Cultivate Nourishment? First, see the entry for our Theme. So I would say that, to "cultivate nourishment", I go to a grocery store, and purchase some nourishing food to cook at home. So I should say that I am "cultivating delicious nourishment". :-)
Weekly Theme: Week of August 10-16, 2014
The Theme for this Week is Cultivation. What does it mean to cultivate? Depends. According to "define cultivate" on Google, it could mean to "prepare and use (land) for crops or gardening", or it could mean to "try to acquire or develop (a quality, sentiment, or skill)", with usage (in a sentence) of "he cultivated an air of indifference".
Saturday, August 9, 2014
Word for the Day: Saturday, August 9, 2014
The
Word for Today (Saturday) is Prosperity. Making a choice to be
prosperous? Please don't laugh at this, or say it's "not possible",
because it's EASY to make choices to NOT be prosperous, such as
beginning a life of crime, or turning off all of your friends. Think
about it!
Friday, August 8, 2014
Word for the Day: Friday, August 8, 2014
The
Word for Today (Friday) is Liberation. A choice to live a liberated
(meaning free) life? Google also suggests Liberation to mean "freedom
from limits on thought and behavior". That sounds good to me also.
Thursday, August 7, 2014
Word for the Day: Thursday, August 7, 2014
The
Word for Today (Thursday) is Wisdom. A "choice" to get wise?
Developing the wisdom to make better choices? Once again, I believe it
works in both directions.
Wednesday, August 6, 2014
Word for the Day: Wednesday, August 6, 2014
The
Word for Today (Wednesday) is Impartiality. Impartial choice? When we
take the meaning of Impartial: "Fair and just", yes.
Tuesday, August 5, 2014
Word for the Day: Tuesday, August 5, 2014
The
Word for Today (Tuesday) is Consequence. Every choice has a
consequence. And this includes the one you THOUGHT wasn't a choice:
Staying in bed, and refusing to choose. Sometimes, that "choice" has
the most dramatic consequence of all.
Monday, August 4, 2014
Word for the Day: Monday, August 4, 2014
The
Word for Today (Monday) is Elimination. Eliminate Choice? NEVER!
However, I can easily see eliminating behavior patterns that might make
choice harder. (One example would be to eliminate tendencies towards
criminal behavior, since being someplace, such as a prison or a jail,
makes personal choice problematical).
Sunday, August 3, 2014
Word for the Day: Sunday, August 3, 2014
The
Word for Today (Sunday) is Self-Reliance. And yes, since only you can
live your life, it makes sense to be self-reliant about the choices you
make.
Weekly Theme: Week of August 3-9, 2014
The Theme for this Week is Choice. Google (through "define choice") gives three meanings for this word, two adjectives and one noun. I'll first eliminate the adjectives, one of which might be said if, say, a driver cuts you off on the freeway: ("He had some choice words, for that driver"). The other adjective means, "of good quality": ("He purchased some choice grapes, at the grocery").
However, the noun fits the intent of these Themes (or Global Jobs, the other use, in the Michael Teachings): "A potential promotion at work provided a difficult choice, between career and family".

Saturday, August 2, 2014
Word for the Day: Saturday, August 2, 2014
The
Word for Today (Saturday) is Expansion. And this Word shows the
differences between the two words that make up this week's Theme: For I
would look forward to a Transformation to spiritual expansion, but
consider it a "transition to be careful of", to simply "expand around
the middle of my body".
Friday, August 1, 2014
Words for the Day: Friday, August 1, 2014
The
Words for Today (Friday) are Trust and Faith. Do you trust your
transformations? Do you have faith in your transitions? It should
depend on who's behind them. For example, I DO trust, and have faith,
in the Universe. Other people, not always (except for limited versions
of, "Trust, but Verify" that I hear in the news).
