Java Glory Vines

One of the meanings of "glory" is take great pride and pleasure in... so this entry I like to remind everyone to stop for a moment and recognize your accomplishments in life.

Sometimes the most fulfilling things we do  bring little recognition, yield no monetary profits, and come without fanfare... yet they can still mean a lot and be completely rewarding.

The things which I have seen I now can see no more - William Wordsworth -

What do you have to say for yourself?

Next to temperance, a quiet conscience, a cheerful mind, and active habits, I place early rising as a means of health and happiness -Flint-

What are some moments that defined your life?

Realize deeply that the present moment is all you ever have - Eckhart Tolle -

How did you make yourself happy?

Life is a journey, and if you fall in love with the journey, you will be in love forever - Peter Hagerty -

Have you spent time listening to yourself?

Use your heart. Understand. Learn to see things in the now, not as they were or will be, or as they might or should be, but as they are, right now, in this moment. The hearts sees the now; the mind only sees the next. If you can't learn to see the now, you'll never see what's truly there, and then where will you be? - E. J. Patten -

Get to know yourself again, if you have unconsciously ignored you! Explore. Feel. Love.
