♫ Sending out some good spirit to all of my friends.. Ps. have a wonderful day all!
"Life and God are one and the same. You are God's child. God would never close all the doors around you. His unlimited love and compassion wouldn't allow Him to be that cruel. God always keeps more than one door open, They may look as if they are closed, but they have, in fact, been left slightly ajar. Just a mild knock is enough and they'll give way. But our eyes are blinded by our ignorance. We fail to see the open doors through which the light of God's grace is pouring in."
--Amma, "Awaken Children! Vol IX ", pg. 162, copyright MA Center
"No matter what difficulties we have to face, we should always have the awareness that we are resting in God's lap, and that we are safe in His hands. This attitude will help us to overcome any adverse situation."
--Amma, "Matruvani", April 2000
"You don't belong to the dark. The darkness is a prison created by your own mind and ego; it is self-imposed and self created. it is not your real abode, for you belong to the light. You are the light of God."
--Amma, "Awaken Children! Vol VIII", pg. 83
“God, come to my help. Lord quickly give me assistance. You are the one who helps me and sets me free. Lord, do not be long in coming.”—Psalm 69:2,6
This is a group collaboration collage some friends and I made for the purpose of making cards for Amma's Circle of Love letters.
I ran 18 miles today. These runs are getting more and more difficult. I have reached a point where putting one foot in front of the other takes as much mental and emotional strength as it takes physical strength. I have never been in this place before. Training for the 1/2 marathon that I did in November was so much easier. It didn't tax my emotional energy. It didn't require me to dig as deep or push as hard. It was a challenge, but it was nothing like this. In fact, I've never done anything like this.
It scares me. I find myself looking for excuses to quit; reasons to stop; ways to get out of it. But, I just keep reminding myself that challenge is good. This experience is worth it. And, I am not a quitter.
PS. I stole this from Jacqueline. Thanks!!
Our last must be to free ourselves, by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures, and the whole of nature... and its beauty.

After battling for 2 years from being under the knife several times, being treated with a rare liver disease for months and months, my left arm demolished by a bike crash, depression and insomnia. I tried to stay on top of it all, and stay partially in shape. So for the first time ever, I have decided to take a self portrait and go in-front of the lens, as a progress report to returning back to where I used to be, as well as get my Photography Mojo Back!. So here goes, this me now, as my starting point......taken 09/01/2016 © SRadwan Photography
