Fairy Reading for Today


It is only with the heart that one can see rightly....
--Antoine de Saint Exupery

If we look at the world through suspicious or angry eyes, we'll find a world that mirrors our expectations - a world where tension will mount, arguments will abound, strife will be present where none need be. However, our experiences in some manner bless us, and we'll recognize that if we'll look upon them with gratitude. Everything in our path is meant for our good and we'll see the good when our hearts act as the eyes for our minds.

When we see with our hearts, our responses to the turmoil around us, the fighting children, the traffic snarls, the angry lovers, will be soft acceptance. When our hearts guide the action we can accept those things we cannot change, and change those we can. And the heart, as the seat of all wisdom, will always know the difference.

This is a good one. A Spiritual Elder and good friend of mine that has gone to the other world once told me, "Pray with your heart, not with your head.". For some reason, todays' thought made me think of him and his wise words.

Thanks.
Have a wonderful Peaceful day.

Amen.

"Saint Ex", as we dub him in France was a very wise man.
