Nib of the Oozing Quill
Call me a coward if you like,
it matters not;
but I’ll walk away from any situation
that leads me to anger;
and I have no desire to argue;
so I’ll just walk away,
‘cause all I want is harmony.
I’ll walk away from thoughts
that threaten my peace of mind,
my self-regard, my ideals,
my integrity and my self-esteem.
The more I walk away
from toxic folks who poison my spirit,
the more
We have most likely sometimes wondered “how lucky” others always are and never ourselves. How,unlike us, they possess all those things that we consider a success; financial abundance, a great career, a great education, always profoundly happy even when they have so little, always being at the right place at the right time, and how they are in a great, blissful, relationship. Such thoughts can be depressing when we think that we are not as successful as others around us.
It might probably, however, be consoling to know that every person on earth has their own definition of success and prosperity. Some see success as having lots of money, for others it’s how powerful you are, for others prosperity is when they and their loved ones are healthy, for others it’s just being happy, and for others it is when their emotional needs are fulfilled.
Having said that, it may help to realize that where there is prosperity in all its presentations, it is more than just luck, it is something more divine ….. It is God’s favor. It is God shifting and arranging things in their favor. It is God fighting their battles, and making a way even where there seems no way. It is God moving the wrong people out and bringing the right people in. And that is why everything they touch becomes blessed. When they touch, God commands the blessing upon it, be it a person, thing or business.

Doctors will confirm that a significant number of patients in hospitals are suffering from conditions and disorders that are not infection-related; they are suffering from conditions that are not caused by germs or bugs such as viruses, bacteria, parasites, or fungi; but the conditions they are suffering from are directly related to their perceptions and thoughts. Results of medical and laboratory tests carried out on these patients indicate that they are not sick and yet they are suffering from “physical symptoms” that include insomnia (lack of sleep), anxiety, hot flashes, night sweats, anger, frustration, impatience, emotional trauma, physical trauma, allergies, digestive issues, back pain, distress, disability and constipation.
These “physical symptoms” are caused by mental, emotional or psychological factors and they are called psychosomatic disorders. Psychosomatic means mind (psyche) and body (soma). A psychosomatic disorder is a disease which involves both mind and body. It is a disease whereby the mind causes a person to suffer physical symptoms or medical conditions which cannot be explained by medical tests or physical examination.
