Why Abundance and Money are just not the same thing.

When I first encountered the word "Abundance" along my path, I just find it special and divine. Yet, there's still a flash in mind, "Would it be purely for the sake of being different, or kind of phrasing tricks to make it more professional perception-wise?"

No. Definitely not.

Simply put, Abundance includes Money; but never the other way round, intrinsically.

Abundance of Financial gain, abundance of Health, abundance of Joy, abundance of Success, abundance of Peace of mind, abundance of Love...What every being keeps asking for more.

Now we change them to: Money of Financial gain, Money of Health, Money of Joy, Money of Success, Money of Peace of mind, Money of Love...

At first it seems to feel right, yet the rest of his life is just a mess that makes no sense at all. Does anyone want to lead a life like this?

See? If one keeps asking for more financial gain single-mindedly (even if it manifests), all he gets is an imbalanced and incomplete life. The more money he gets, only the more imbalanced and incomplete his life will be.

Now read this poem:


Money will buy,

A Bed but not Sleep,
Books but not Brains,
Food but not Health,
Amusement but not Happiness,
Entertainment but not Peace,
Religion but not Salvation,
A passport to Everywhere but Heaven.

Now, you've just raised your Abundance of knowledge, for a truly Abundant life.

Why most viewers get disappointed with [RICKY] the movie.

Personally, I quite like the recent French movie - RICKY.

It's basically a story of a cute baby angel born into a normal single parent family.

Yet, most movie-goers left the cinema with complaints.

Reasons?

First, they had expectations. They might expect it to be a Hollywood production with more cuddly cute and funny scenes plus most important of all, a very happy ending. However, expectations are what Buddha taught us to be the root cause of unhappiness.

Second, they might have forgotten a classic Four-Liner that I got deeply moved on my first encounter, at the age of 9.

"If you love something, let it go.
If it comes back to you, it's yours forever.
If it doesn't,
It never was."

"Something" includes every thing. Both living and non-living things. It could be your dog, your lover, or your family member

Go see the movie.

Two Travelling Angels - An angelic story from my angelic friend, Brenda.

Keep reading to the bottom of the page -- don't stop at the feet (You'll see).

Two traveling angels stopped to spend the night in the home of a wealthy family. The family was rude and refused to let the angels stay in the mansion's guest room. Instead the angels were given a small space in the cold basement. As they made their bed on the hard floor, the older angel saw a hole in the wall and repaired it.

When the younger angel asked why, the older angel replied, 'Things aren't always what they seem.'

The next night the pair came to rest at the house of a very poor, but very hospitable farmer and his wife. After sharing what little food they had the couple let the angels sleep in their bed where they could have a good night's rest.

When the sun came up the next morning the angels found the farmer and his wife in tears. Their only cow, whose milk had been their sole income, lay dead in the field. The younger angel was infuriated and asked the older angel how could you
have let this happen? The first man had everything, yet you helped him, she accused. The second family had little but was willing to share everything, and you let the cow die.

'Things aren't always what they seem,' the older angel replied. 'When we stayed in the basement of the mansion, I noticed there was gold stored in that hole in the wall. Since the owner was so obsessed with greed and unwilling to share his good fortune, I sealed the wall so he wouldn't find it. Then last night as we slept in the farmers bed, the angel of death came for his wife. I gave him the cow instead. Things aren't always what they seem.'

Sometimes that is exactly what happens when things don't turn out the way they should. If you have faith, you just need to trust that every outcome is always to your advantage. You just might not know it until sometime later . . .

A few words from Tony:
*That there are indeed angels and guardian angels all around us, always. And they're ready to help 24/7. As long as you ask and allow them to do so;

*That Everything (no exception) happens for our best interests;

*That sharing doesn't reduce what one has, it increases instead (Isn't that magic?);

*Always live vigilantly in the moment of "now", for it's the "present" to everyone;

*It's easier to see the "feet" & "angel" above in email format.

WE ARE WATER.

96% of an Egg is Water.

80% of a Baby is Water.

70% of an Adult is Water.

As percentage of water in our bodies drops, our memories get worse and more wrinkles show up on our faces.

Water has memory.

And this is denied by modern scientists.

The word "human" indeed means humid beings. We die when our water inside drops below 50%.

Now you know why dead bodies are dry...
