Give IT full Freedom Stand with IT and let It act. Stand in IT and by It. There is no other power to act. This makes steady progress, like a glacier coming down the mountain. You are steadily moving forward and gaining a momentum, against which nothing else can stand. It is an Infallible momentum, Power, and Means of achievement of all good things. There is only One Power that acts. Give It full Freedom

----

Thanx, Trish, for cleaning up the garbage someone threw on the site.

----

Thanx Christine for Chez. The seeds planted are beginning to sprout.

----

When I first embarked on a way to understand life (especially MY precious life) I was told: "you are wearing foggy lenses; this information will give you an opportunity to get rid of them." I am SOOOOO grateful that I can see what I couldn't see before. I humbly (and greedily) pray to expand this vision.

----

Thanx for clarity.

Thanx for the "unusual behavior"

Seeing so much misery fills my heart with deepest appreciation and gratitude for the Teaching....ThanX a Million Times....ht

I received a gift which I had requested (prayed for?) from Life; this gift was accompanied by many "components" which I did not anticipate and which have been quite challenging in figuring how to use (manipulate?!). Now that I've had this gift awhile, I am truly grateful - for the gift itself, and the unforeseen knowing I've gained. Thank you Life, and thank you jt, for all of it.

Thank you Life, for the beauty you give. Thank you for the challenges. Thank you for giving me the ability to love. S.R.

Thanks for 6 out of 6 children sleeping right now and for the privilege of spending my days with young ones. That goes for all the resistences that go along with it that turn me into a patient person :) Paulette and for good moods, good food and good jokes

----

Not a day goes by that I'm not thankful for the teaching.

----

Grateful that we were able to close and sell our family house and that the buyers don't want to tear it down but refurbish and refresh it! That's one in a thousand buyers. Also, that the house has survived the hurricanes in Florida of the last few years! It's a great old house. And grateful to be in the new cottage in old town West Palm Beach, with beautiful coconut trees and green and gekos and contributing from right here in the "Bahama Room". And that the family is getting along fine with all the legal work. whohoo!

----

I am THANKFUL that X does not let us cheat. Whatever our inner state is gets expressed in our moods, bodies, relationships, income, etc. These don't change or transform until we do. Whether I like it or not I stay where I am until I truly re-evaluate what is happening within. At times, this is not easy to be with, but it is of great value.

----

To all the spammers out there that have found their way here: as a regular visitor to this site, I would be very grateful if you would stop posting here; this site is pretty basic - as it says on the home page, it's not about selling. Thanks

----

Trish tells me that the spammers are not even reading the site, it is all automatic, they have robots or spiders or something that search for pages that allow one to post, and then zap! I'm thankful for Trish who cleans up their mess, and does it for nothing but a sincere thank you.

----

I apologize for inadvertently deleting the post about a great dinner in LA; the writer expressed gratitude for the meal, the chef, the value. As I was deleting the many spam posts, I also deleted that post. Please post again! Sincerely, the webmistress.

----

Everyone thinks they know one's purpose in doing something. Very few actually do. I am so grateful for those few who do, it eases the burden of tough going. Thank you, with sincere humility.

A running canyon stream, a brief shower and California bay laurel is heaven scent.

Joy, Happiness, Harmony and Love to each and all Workers in these interesting times and throughout the upcoming season.

A brand new Harley Davidson landed in James's lap without effort at an auction and as a gift from LIFE.

Thank you to LIFE for being able to have so much fun each and every morning, noon, night! And with wisdom informing all! If I'd done all the things as a kid I'm doing now, scuba, painting, motorcycle, balancing board, and sooooo much more, I wouldn't be enjoying all the fun in discovering these fantastic adventures now! Read on a coffee cup: "It's never too late to have a Happy Childhood!" Yo!

----

----

I'm so thankful for my beautiful new office and all that G. did to make it happen.

----

Just to express that so grateful for the Work we can do and enjoy each day and Rumi's, Be always bewildered in God...for as we know...Life is not a problem to be solved but a mystery to be lived. Grateful also for the inherent spaces built into the Maps we can all enjoy, the mysteries to be lived.

A woman received a phone call from her sitter that her daughter was sick with a high fever. She left work and stopped by the pharmacy for medication. Returning to her car, she found she had locked her keys inside. She didn't know what to do. She called her home to talk to the sitter, and was told her daughter was getting worse. The sitter said, "Find a coat hanger and use that to open the door." The woman found an old rusty coat hanger on the ground, then looked at the hanger and said, "I don't know how to use this." She bowed her head and asked God for help. An old rusty car pulled up, driven by a dirty, greasy, bearded man with a biker skull rag on his head. The woman thought, "Great God. This is what you sent to help me?" But she was desperate, and thankful. The man got out of his car and asked if he could help She said, "Yes, my daughter is very sick. I must get home to her. Please, can you use this hanger to unlock my car? " He said, "SURE." He walked over to the car and in seconds the car door was opened. She hugged the man and through her tears she said, "THANK YOU SO MUCH.... You are a very nice man." He replied, "Lady, I ain't a nice man. I just got out of prison for car theft." The woman hugged him again and cried out loud, "THANK YOU, GOD, FOR SENDING ME A PROFESSIONAL."

ThanX to Trish who already has two real jobs and spent her entire weekend (and several previous evenings) getting the site to work, and truly as a labor of love. What a gal!!

----

Cool, it works!

----

A woman with whom I worked recently retired. She taught me about people and naturally had so many qualities seen in a true leader. She never actively "led" anyone. She always did what she said she was going to do. I am grateful to have known her.

----

I have some really cool people in my life.

Yesterday I was taking a rare break and thumbing through a fancy catalog and indulging in a little self-pity because I couldn't afford the pretty things that appealed to me. My ten month old baby was propped up at the end of the couch and as I glanced at her she broke out in the biggest sunshine smile, almost like she was laughing at me. You know what I'm thankful for, and thankfulness sure feels better than self-pity! And thanks to whoever put up this site.

----

My friend sent me a birthday card with your unusual stamp. So I checked it out--way cool. I hadn't given it much thought what I'm thankful for. I realize that I'm thankful for a whole bunch of stuff. Thanks, Steve, and yeah Thanks life. Barry

The beautiful blue and silver Harley Davidson bought and paid for! Now it has a name too, "LUCKY". Took it out of the playground (that is, the are around the neighborhood) and way across the main boulevard and then down the Flagler Avenue by the lake.

I got my new bunny slippers for my birthday. I am so happy. My mom helped me type this. Thank you for my pretty new slippers. From Kyla, age SIX!!
