Don’t be good just to others but be good to yourself as well. If the teapot is empty you can not pour tea for yourself or anyone, you must refill it with water before putting back on the fire, if you don’t the pot will crack and never be useful. You too much make sure to refill yourself so that you don’t break and can continue on pouring your love and wisdom for yourself and others.
Seek not in another but seek in yourself.
Looking at the things that hurt you and still haunt you is not easy but it is worth it. Lot’s of people suffer from lack of self-love. The hurt and pain block this self-love but once you look at it and see how little power it can have you can then fall in love with yourself. If you see someone who is hell bent on destroying themselves, family, and family it is most likely to them better than facing that pain they hide away years ago. Understand it’s not about you, it’s about them, have compassion at a distance and just see them as loved whole, and complete. God will do the rest.

If you have not heard the story of Hurley Thompson here it is: 10 years ago this man use to walk past my house as he would pick up my recycling and others in the neighborhood to pay for the space he rented in someones garage to sleep in…just a few miles away. Overtime as we saw him week in and week out and got to know Hurley, I would ask him to lift heavy objects in the yard as I worked with my vermicompost and odd jobs as I was soaking nuts & sprouting for us daily. I would feed him and/or pay him a few dollars for his help. As the years went by the time he helped me extended. I always told him, “Hurley, just let me know how else we can help you, we are here for you”. So, one day he asked for help, he said he needed a program to go through to show the court system that he was getting his act together. I offered to help, I asked him to watch a documentary called ” May I be Frank” http://m.imdb.com/title/tt1474792/ this is a true experience of the son of owners of “Cafe Gratitude” Matthew & Terces Engelhart that helped a man FrankFerrante detox from Cocaine & lost over one hundred pounds and get his health and life back. Hurley watched it and agreed to sign a contract with himself and us to stay in our house for 42 days, after a 10 day juice cleanse and the remainder of his stay learning the Rawfood/Vegan lifestyle and becoming Clean & Sober. Today this man rents a comfortable room inside the same house he use to sleep in the garage, He has purchased a brand new vehicle this year with good credit on his own, he has been the Secretary of his 12 step group he attends to this day regularly since the beginning, he works 3 partime jobs including RawFresno.com as one of them and today he graduated from Fresno City College with a bright future of accounting. It’s been 5 years since February 13, 2012 when his New life began. I am proud to say Hurley is one of my closes best friends I have ever had in my entire life thus far. I love you @hurley thank you for coming into our lives Rawfresno.com would not be what it is today if it wasn’t for you!

Love does not conquer all. Love is not forceful or aggressive. No matter how much you want something to be a certain way, if it is not meant to be love will not come to your defense or bend things to your will. Love is gentle and open awaiting you to step into it. It will not pursue you or make you or anyone submit but only invite you to be.
Arguing with someone to convince them of your viewpoint is like pouring gasoline on a fire to put it out. It is not them you must convince of anything it is you that you must convince your position warrants action. Stop arguing and clear things up calmly and move forward or stop arguing and just move on.
You can’t help but sneeze. Love is like a sneeze, it will sneak up on you, you will have a few seconds notice and try to change its course but like a sneeze, it is going to happen. Give up the fight and let it happen because like a sneeze you never know how good or insignificant it might be and it will end eventually. So enjoy it while it lasts, the anticipation, the feelings while in it and the satisfaction after.

Your beliefs will not make you a better person, your behavior will.
Your words mean nothing if your actions are in complete opposition to them.
True faith in what you believe in must be shown through actions, believing is only half the equation.
Examen yourself and ask if you are living up to your beliefs or just giving lip service to the doctrine. Reach far beyond who you think you are and that is where you will find yourself.
