In the Jewish religion it says - in the time of deepest darkest night act as if the morning has already come
If you want to have a nonmiraculous day, I suggest that newspaper and caffeine form the crux of your morning regimen. Listen to the morning news while you're in the shower, read the headlines as you are walking out the door, make sure you're keeping tabs on everything: the wars, the economy, the gossip, the natural disasters. . . But if you want the day ahead to be full of miracles, then spend some time each morning with God.
People who are meditating every day and involved in a serious spiritual practice don't usually wake up in the morning and want to rush out to eat a bunch of junk food.
Within the miraculous brew of universal creativity , all you desire already exists. Spend five minutes each morning with your eyes closed, living in that dimension. Allow images to unfold without censor. Feel yourself living the most magnificent life -- a life of joy, creativity and love -- as you grow inwardly into the person you need to be in order to manifest it effortlessly.

There is nothing that a military machine can do to work a miracle.
Through prayer we find what we cannot find elsewhere: a peace that is not of this world.
Today, most Americans are too cynical, or tired, or both, to even approximate our Founders' courageous repudiation of injustice.
You get enough people agreeing in consciousness that Mexico is a dangerous place, and that dangerous thought will make it so.
Viewing Israelis and Palestinians from a psychological perspective, they would both be seen as victims of abuse; that is how they both understandably feel, and it's how they both understandably behave. The Jewish psyche is in victimized reaction to the Holocaust, and the Palestinian psyche is in victimized reaction to the Israelis.
There's no reason to think that you'll be capable of loyalty to a diet until you address your basic disloyalty toward yourself.
As all of us are only too aware, the loud and frantic voices of the outer world easily drown out the small, still loving voice within.
