  • However, independence, positivity and the urge for action and progress are such strong forces in your nature that you find it difficult to control them.
  • At the best of times, you are not naturally disposed to be companionable and sociable, as diplomacy and finding the right words for the situation do not come easily to you.

  • Ailments could also centre in the head causing headaches, sinus problems, or defective eyesight, hearing, or teeth.

Thought for the Day
  • Another destructive channel to well being is comfort: it destroys self-confidence and robs one of a sense of responsibility. There is no greater gift we can bestow upon others than a happy smile and a constructive thought of well being. To be happy means that one must first have happiness within, and this comes only through a balanced mind and wisdom. –Alfred J. Parker

  • There is more to giving than just doing. It is being: being happy, being principled, being considerate and understanding, being a friend in all ways. And that kind of giving comes from within, because it is the outer expression of Universal Love. –Kabalarian Teachings

  • From the time of Kepler to that of Newton, and from Newton to Hartley, not only all things in external nature, but the subtlest mysteries of life and organization, and even of the intellect and moral being, were conjured within the magic circle of mathematical formulae. –Samuel Taylor Coleridge

  • Know that a wise man changes his mind; but a fool never. Be humble, and thus keep the door to wisdom always open. Ego is the greatest destroyer of potential thinkers. Be principled, just, and honest at all times; and peace, health, and success will follow you all the days of your life. –Alfred J. Parker
