Blessings

Dallas Arboretum


Ten Spiritual Tonics
Stop worrying.
Worry kills life.

Begin each day with a prayer.
It will arm your soul.

Control appetite.
Over-indulgence blogs body and mind.

Accept your limitations.
All of us can't be great.

Don't envy.
It wastes time and energy.

Have faith in people.
Cynicism sours the disposition.

Find a hobby.
It will relax your nerves.

Read a book a week
to stimulate imagination and broaden your view.

Spend some time alone,
for the peace of solitude and silence.

Try to want what you have,
instead of spending your strength trying to get what you want.

  1. Thank you for these very wise and meaningful thoughts. My favorite one is "Begin each day with a prayer", because I have learned that it definitely does "arm my soul".

    Blessings to you too!
