If you can keep your head when all about you Are losing theirs and blaming it on you;
If you can trust yourself when all men doubt you, But make allowance for their doubting too;
If you can wait and not be tired by waiting, Or, being lied about, don't deal in lies, Or, being hated, don't give way to hating,
And yet don't look too good, nor talk too wise;
If you can dream-and not make dreams your master;
If you can think-and not make thoughts your aim;
If you can meet with triumph and disaster And treat those two impostors just the same;
If you can bear to hear the truth you've spoken
Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools,
Or watch the things you gave your life to broken, And stoop and build 'em up with wornout tools;
If you can make one heap of all your winnings And risk it on one turn of pitch-and-toss,
And lose, and start again at your beginnings And never breathe a word about your loss;
If you can force your heart and nerve and sinew To serve your turn long after they are gone, And so hold on when there is nothing in you Except the Will which says to them: "Hold on";
If you can talk with crowds and keep your virtue, Or walk with kings-nor lose the common touch;
If neither foes nor loving friends can hurt you;
If all men count with you, but none too much;
If you can fill the unforgiving minute With sixty seconds' worth of distance run-
Yours is the Earth and everything that's in it, And-which is more-you'll be a Man, my son!
"IF" by Rudyard Kipling, 1895
After a long Indian Summer we’re finally expecting some colder weather, so it’s time to get the coop ready.
Also, we’re getting a few more chickens tomorrow and I wanted them to feel right at home.
In a world full of chaos, distractions and the next big news on the horizon it’s easy to forget being in the moment. Being truly present mind, body and spirit. These beautiful animals have shown us so much and one of the main reminders/lessons they thought us is to be present and thankful for all that is life.
Oh what a wonderful gift it is. 🙏🏼

He, like y'all, have a spark of me, fuckin guy fought his heart out so the creator of universal law can experience creation thru 'em consciously.

The same honor shared goes both ways . . . . . . . annnnnnnyway, babel-on dress up day? Ok. I aint dressin up. I'm the holy ghost. 😶BOO!!!😆
There was a suggestion to share pics on their animals. I do professional petsitting. I don't have a pet of my own because of my living situation, but I watch after my clients as if they were my own. Let me introduce you to Lady and Annie. Lady is black kitty and if I sit down to text my client, she immediately comes over, puts her paws on my leg and taps my belly :) Annie, the grey one, is a bit more independent, like cats can be. She's a tunnel dweller and loves to hide when I bring out the wand feather toy. All of a sudden she'll shoot out of the cat tunnel like a bullet and run right by the cat toy🤣 she thinks she's hunting. That's all that matters. I just lmao each time she does it :) I hope all is well with you Inspired Tribe 🤗🙏💜🌈
Friends,
it's always quite interesting to see how one and the same piece of information/video/article can cause an incredibly variety of reactions. From "blessed and inspired" to "this is fear mongering of the worst kind".
They saw the same piece on information delivered/written by the same person. So is it the information itself or is it something else that determines how we react?
Kristin and I talk about it in today's Sunday Sermon right here 👇🏽
Much Love & Many Blessings,
Jean & Kristin
Friends,
in the face of all that we are witnessing in the world today, who hasn't asked themself at times, "What can little old me change"? It's a common question and we've all asked it before.
It's actually a very important one to ask, but most don't realize how powerful the real answer is.
Let us explain in today's Sunday Sermon 👇🏽
