As moms, we often have times where we struggle and are frustrated with our reality. But, when we focus on our dreams and remember why we want them, we are surely to achieve those dreams.

Enjoy!

The story is told that a young man asked Socrates how he could wisdom.

“Come with me,” Socrates replied. He took the young man to a river and shoved his head underwater. He held it there until the boy struggled for air. The he let him go.

Once the boy regained himself, Socrates asked him, “What did you desire most when your head was under water?”

“I wanted air”, the boy told him.

Socrates nodded slowly. “When you want wisdom as much as you wanted air when you were immersed in the water, he said, “you will receive it.”

In the same way, when

• you have an intense, sincere desire to overcome a certain block in your life;
• you come to a clear-cut decision that there is a way out;
• you confidently decide that that is the course you wish to follow,

then the victory and triumph are assured.

If you really want peace of mind and inner calm, you will get it. It doesn’t matter how unjustly you have been treated, or how unfair the boss has been, or what a mean jerk someone has proved to be. All this makes no difference to you when you awaken to your mental and spiritual powers. You know what you want, and you will definitely refuse to let the thieves (thoughts) of hatred, anger, hostility and ill will rob you of peace, harmony, health and happiness.

Once you learn the habit of identifying your thoughts immediately with your aim in life, you cease to become upset by people, conditions, news and events. Your aim is peace, health, inspiration, harmony and abundance. Feel a river of peace flowing through you now. Your thought is the immaterial and invisible power, and you choose to let it bless, inspire and give you peace.

To Your Well-Being,
