The Power of Gratitude
by Al Diaz
Why would I want to be grateful for all of the junk that is going on in my Life? How can I be thankful for all of the uncomfortable things that are going on in my Life? What is there to appreciate when the stuff that is going on doesn’t feel good?
Better yet… how do you expect me to move forward or think positive when I am to some degree scared?
I have been through and lived every one of those questions at some time or another…
It has happened with relationships, money, health, mental and emotional roller coaster rides, and even near death experiences. But, years later I am still here hitting the keyboard for this article.
As I reflect back everything that transpired in my Life had to happen in order for me to BE where I am today. It provided the opportunities for me to grow and evolve, and the chance to present to others my newfound wisdom. Don’t get me wrong there are some experiences in my Life that at the time I would have preferred to not have been through… but somehow I managed to get through them.
If there are a few things I can tell you that will get you through whatever you are going through here they are…
Think back to an experience where you thought it was as tough spot to be in and somehow you persevered and as time went on for the most part everything turned out ok. When you are in an uncomfortable situation kNow that as long you keep taking some action to move forward somehow, someway everything is going to work out.
The less you live in the past of regrets the more you can live in the present which is the most powerful moment to create or recreate your Life. Right Now is the only time you have, right Now is when the past can’t be changed and the future is yet to come. Right Now without the past or the future there are no regrets or worries.
Trust that you have the ability, resources, people or whatever is required to get you through any experience. Whatever it required you had enough to get you to this point in your Life, look for them because they are there for you to have and utilize for the rest of your Life.
But most importantly emanate the energy of any situation as BEing for your best and highest good by telling your Self just that…”it is all for my best and highest good”. Because that is when you begin to shift the energy of the experience… and when it is all said and done say “Thank You”.
“Thank You” is when you reclaim your power back instead of giving it away to fear, anger or hurt. “Thank You” is a vibration of acceptance and surrender without giving up and despair. “Thank You” is a signal to your Self and to the Universe that you are closing that chapter and ready to walk through the door of another opportunity that you rightly deserve.
And “Thank You” is what I tell you for BEing who you are…
For our best and highest good, all ways…
Ilumine Ao,

“Allowing is the Key” by Ralph Carpio
As I stated in my latest book “BEing The Titus Concept” to “allow” is to have the Lifestyle that you desire or require. It is already there for you to have… from you Heart.
For our best and highest good, all ways…

Allowing is the Key
by Ralph Carpio
ALLOWING IS THE KEY. That, in a nutshell, is what I learned is the key to life, to creating your own life. Those four seemingly simple words are the basis of the power we can harness in life to use for our benefit. It took me many years to learn the power of those four words. The best way to begin is to illustrate an example of what I am talking about in the telling of this short fictional tale.
There was a lone wanderer who had been traveling for many days and had grown weary. One day he stumbled upon an abandoned cabin in the woods. Night began to fall as he peered through the cabin window. Deciding no one was occupying the space, the lone wanderer stepped inside and began to undress.
Finding a small cot in a corner of the room, he tiredly rested his head upon a pillow. The last faint streams of sunlight illuminated a wooden chair a few feet from the cot. Upon the chair the man viewed an object. It sat coiled on the chair perfectly still.
A rattlesnake, the wanderer deduced and began to shiver. His fear of snakes, born in childhood, rose up inside him. The wanderer remained very still as the sun dipped completely below the horizon. His eyes stayed fixed upon the chair throughout the night.
