Clear Pathways Coaching Newsletter 4/9/09
Dear Friends: Welcome to Clear Pathways Coaching monthly newsletter. The current economy has brought about worries, uncertainties, fears. Many people have found themselves in rather dire circumstances. Platitudes are not exactly what we want to hear in the midst of difficulties. Still, the truth is that our state of mind can make all the difference in how we get through downward spirals. How can we experience abundance where unemployment and debt prevail? Sound crazy? It is all about how we view things. Keep reading.
Warmly,
Lillian

QUOTE OF THE MONTH:
Riches are not from abundance of worldly goods, but from a contented mind. -Mohammud
THE MAIN THING:
Unlimited Abundance (Asking and Receiving)
by healing quotes
Every person wants to receive unlimited abundance but very few seem to have access to this benefit. What is the reason and mystery? And in this legend, we asked to the one who received plenty and to the one who received little.
The first one said: - I asked to be able to Love because I am Loved. I also asked to always be happy and joyous. And today I have not only the necessary things but I also have abundance and good health for my brothers, friends and loved ones. I also have every morning’s sun, the breeze in the afternoon, the beauty of the flowers, the lullaby of the sea and the distant star, inviting me to dream. I have received more blessings than the grains of sand in the beach.-
Then, the second one said: - I asked and asked and I only received the echo of my words. I am a sailor, owner of a ship. Nevertheless, I said to myself. What is the reason that I should not have two ships? I wished that in the morning, but hours later, I passed by the bay and said: If God is powerful, it is much better that He gives me three ships. While at night time, I wished for half of the ships of the world and I would be their captain. So far, I have seen only my old ship. Maybe God did not listen or maybe He was too busy. I have decided to keep on asking but this time, I will be wiser. Maybe one hundred ships will be enough at this time.-
And the time kept passing and this became folktale and the folktale became story and the story became legend. And then, these men affirmed: The one who received much said:
- I am very rich and blessed because I always have what is just and necessary.- And the other one said:- I have had only one ship in my life. Maybe God will bless me in the other life and I will have a big fleet of ships. Nevertheless I still don’t have anything.
HUMOR YOUR STRESS:
Miser's Final Wish
There was a man who had worked all of his life and had saved all of his money. He was a real miser when it came to his money. He loved money more than just about anything, and just before he died, he said to his wife, "Now listen, when I die, I want you to take all my money and place it in the casket with me. I wanna take my money to the afterlife."
So he got his wife to promise him with all her heart that when he died, she would put all the money in the casket with him.
Well, one day he died. He was stretched out in the casket, the wife was sitting there in black next to her closest friend. When they finished the ceremony, just before the undertakers got ready to close the casket, the wife said "Wait just a minute!" she had a shoe box with her, she came over with the box and placed it in the casket.
Then the undertakers locked the casket down and rolled it away.
Her friend said, "I hope you weren't crazy enough to put all that money in the casket."
She said, "Yes, I promised. I'm a good Christian, I can't lie. I promised him that I was going to put that money in that casket with him. I put all of his money into my bank account, wrote him a cheque and put the cheque into the shoebox.”
He who laughs, lasts.
