A Delicate Balance

An email was forwarded to me the other day that I thought had an important message to share. The theme of the email was about realizing what is important. Here it is:

To realize
The value of a sister/brother
Ask someone
Who doesn't have one.

To realize
The value of ten years:
Ask a newly
Divorced couple.


To realize
The value of four years:
Ask a graduate.

To realize
The value of one year:
Ask a student who
Has failed a final exam.

To realize
The value of nine months:
Ask a mother who gave birth to a stillborn.

To realize
The value of one month:
Ask a mother
Who has given birth to
A premature baby.

To realize
The value of one week:
Ask an editor of a weekly newspaper.

To realize
The value of one minute:
Ask a person
Who has missed the train, bus or plane.

To realize
The value of one second:
Ask a person
Who has survived an accident.

To realize the value of a friend or family member:
LOSE ONE

Time waits for no one.
Treasure every moment you have.
You will treasure it even more when
You can share it with someone special.

                                    *The origin of this letter is unknown.

I believe that it is important to get our priorities straight. The focus of these ‘realizations’ were about your life and what you do with it. Although I feel that a few of these ‘values’ are a bit extreme, there are times when we need to see the worst-case-scenario in order to give us a healthier perspective on focus.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“Balancing what is required and what we desire is a delicate act but when we do, we yield the most lovely fruit on earth.” tc

There is a language known to mankind that uses a different set of rules in order to communicate the deep and timeless language of the universal. I have called this language, “Universal Consciousness.”


The methods used to communicate involves archetypal symbols, which Carl Jung coined but it goes much deeper by using our sensory perceptions, colors, numbers, natural planetary cycles, body language, shapes, and our Inner Knowing in order to express itself. This language crosses all known language barriers and cultural influences. Within this state of consciousness, all is understood.

Not only do we use this language through simple communication like “smiling,” which we all understand to mean joyfulness but other spiritual beings use this language, too. God, angels, spirits, aliens (to us) and even dark forces communicate through universal consciousness.

So, on that note, the quote of the day is:

“There is a Universal language that we instinctually know and understand. This language can be used to guide, protect and teach us, if we slow down long enough to read the signs.” tc
