Word for the Day: Wednesday, November 30, 2016

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Adaptability. A synonym of this is Flexibility, and I consider a Flexible Prophecy to be the best kind. (I've said this before, but consider it worth repeating: "A Flexible person adapts to his/her surroundings. An Inflexible person 'requests' that his/her surroundings adapt to him/her"!)

Words for the Day: Tuesday, November 29, 2016

The Words for Today (Tuesday) are Agility and Grace. An Agile Prophecy about Grace? Why not? And if you are looking for tools, for developing agility and grace, I recommend Yoga.

Word for the Day: Monday, November 28, 2016

The Word for Today (Monday) is Acceleration. Prophecies about Acceleration? Accelerated Prophecy? Both? Well, I can make a "prophecy": If you accelerate in an excessive manner, say in a motor vehicle, you may not like the results!

Words for the Day: Sunday, November 27, 2016

The Words for Today (Sunday) are Patience and Tolerance. And, especially with philosophies, dealing with multiple "versions" of events, you need patience, to cut through all of this, to find what is "most likely" to occur, and to describe it to others. In addition, you need to tolerate the "versions" of events, which *do* show up in your life.

Weekly Theme: Week of 11/27 - 12/03/2016

The Theme for this Week is Prophecy.  So what is a Prophecy?  Google simply calls it, "a Prediction".  But note that I, when I began this post, misspelled it to "Prophesy", a verb, which means to "say that (a specified thing) will happen in the future".  Now, in the Michael Teachings, as well as the Seth Material and versions of Quantum Physics, what is the Prophecy?  Just one version of the intending "future event".  For how can you prophesy "the" future event, if there are multiple versions of it?  (And how does it look, to those who do not "believe" any of these "multiple world" models?  Simply, that the prophecy was wrong!)

Word for the Day: Saturday, November 26, 2016

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Acknowledgement. To conclude this week's Theme, Acknowledge those, who help you to compensate for any disabilities, whether small or large, that you may contend with. (No disabilities? Then your "disability" is being too "ordinary". LOL!) One final comment: It takes knowledge to acknowledge.

Word for the Day: Friday, November 25, 2016

The Word for Today (Friday) is Kindness. And of course, we need to be Kind to people, who are challenged with disabilities. But don't stop there: Be kind to all of those around you, in whatever way is appropriate (even to "small things" like, for example, making it easier for somebody to walk past you, on the sidewalk).

Word for the Day: Thursday, November 24, 2016

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Encouragement. Encouraging Disabilities? No! (People have enough problems with the different kinds of disabilities *without* encouragement!) However, we *can* encourage people, with disabilities to create the best lives they can for themselves (whether it's by "overcoming" the disability, which certainly is possible in many cases, or simply compensating, by concentrating on what *does* work, in his/her life).

Word for the Day: Wednesday, November 23, 2016

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Thoughtfulness. And yes, it's always good to be thoughtful to those, who are challenged by disabilities. So what does that mean? In some cases, it simply means treating him/her as a normal human being, instead of concentrating on, what makes him/her different! That said, thoughtfulness in general (which simply means thinking, before speaking and/or acting) is a good trait to show in the world.

Word for the Day: Tuesday, November 22, 2016

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Support. Disabled Support? (Hope not). Supporting Disability? (Also no). Supporting people, as well as organizations, regarding Disabilities? Yes. Depending on the disability, some people literally cannot get around, without a Support Network. And, if you join the network for other people, you may be surprised, to find your own Support Networks. (Funny how that works!)

Word for the Day: Monday, November 21, 2016

The Word for Today (Monday) is Comfort. A Comfortable Disability? Be careful, because those two words don't usually mix well. Providing Comfort for those, with Disabilities? Certainly! It should be the foundation of care givers, to provide comfort to people under their care.

Word for the Day: Sunday, November 20, 2016

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Nourishment. Disabled Nourishment? (Well, I guess some might consider the inability to cook food, a disability). But what I believe is better, is GOOD Nourishment, for people, with disabilities. (And in some cases, a poor diet might have even BEEN the cause of the disability, and getting "proper Nourishment" might counter it!)

Weekly Theme: Week of November 20-26, 2016

The Theme for this Week is Disability.  So what's a disability?  According to Google, it's "a physical or mental condition that limits a person's movements, senses, or activities".  One thing to note, is how many ways, people report being disabled.  Usually, people think of it, from the point of view of what prevents a person from being gainfully employed.  So, does that mean that "laziness" is a disability?  :-)

Life on Earth, includes a concept that people "usually" agree on, at least in some form or another, known as Time.  But there are enough issues with Time, that there is a surprisingly involved Wikipedia Article on it!  But my point, before I spent "time" reading Wikipedia, was that Life on Earth includes "looking and feeling" different, depending on how many years have passed, since your birth.  Until we learn to competently time travel, there are two things people on Earth typically "look forward to":  "Getting old", and, eventually "Dying".  Getting back to our topic, dying is a special type of Disability.  Like for example, how gainfully employed would a dead person expect to be? But "getting old" is a different story, because different people age in different ways.  One example, of people not considering themselves disabled, just because they are old, comes from an article, about Elderly People, running in the Boston Marathon.

So I leave it here.  Comments are welcome.

Word for the Day: Saturday, November 19, 2016

The Word for Today (Saturday) is Prosperity. And, in my opinion, Diplomacy can, if approached correctly, be quite a Prosperous Career: Not only can the job itself be interesting, but the function is quite important, as I've been sharing, through this week.

Word for the Day: Friday, November 18, 2016

The Word for Today (Friday) is Liberation. Diplomacy, to Liberate oneself (say, from war)? Or Liberation FROM Diplomacy? (I hope not!) I like the first one, because Diplomacy *can* be a tool, to "liberate" yourself from some kinds of issues. (It's often called, "talking yourself out of trouble").

Word for the Day: Thursday, November 17, 2016

The Word for Today (Thursday) is Wisdom. And yes, a Wise Diplomat is the best kind!

So how does one develop Wisdom? Good study, including reading of "good books", as well as the attendance of great "Weekend Workshops" make a significant difference, but don't forget that much of the Wisdom, anybody develops, comes from Cold, Hard Life Experience. There are no shortcuts, my friends!

Word for the Day: Wednesday, November 16, 2016

The Word for Today (Wednesday) is Impartiality. An Impartial Diplomat? That would, of course, be the best kind, in the long run. However, we are human, with our own opinions, so "pure impartiality" is out of the question. So what *can* one do, who is preparing for a career, in the Diplomatic Corps? Go as far as is practical, of course, while being pragmatic (especially when determining which countries you might be interested in, to become a diplomat. For example, if you plan to mediate a civil war, make sure you come from a background, that is respected by both sides).

Word for the Day: Tuesday, November 15, 2016

The Word for Today (Tuesday) is Consequence. Are there consequences to Diplomacy? Certainly, but there also are consequences, to the *Absence* of Diplomacy! And I'll leave it to you, to figure out which consequences are more severe.

Word for the Day: Monday, November 14, 2016

The Word for Today (Monday) is Elimination. Eliminate Diplomacy? Please no! But you can certainly eliminate things, which stand in the way of Diplomacy, such as war.

Word for the Day: Sunday, November 13, 2016

The Word for Today (Sunday) is Self-Reliance. Since a Diplomat often acts, by him/herself, self-reliance is a wonderful trait to have. Not the only one, of course; I consider the ability to listen important, as well. But don't always expect help from outside, when busy on an assignment.
