‎"If we do not believe within ourselves this deeply rooted feeling that there is something higher than ourselves, we shall never find the strength to evolve into something higher."

- Rudolph Steiner


‎"We shall unleash the Nihilists and the Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute Atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will from that moment be without compass or direction, anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view. This manifestation will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time." 
- Albert Pike

"In politics, nothing happens by accident. If it happens, you can bet it was planned that way." - Franklin D. Roosevelt

Sometimes in this game of life, the winning move is not to play. When I think about that it makes me think of those things that do not serve and grow my spirit. Such as: feeding into negative energies, impatience, drama, self pity, jealousy, fear, and anything that causes anxiety or a blockage from the natural flow of Love in my spirit. I get to choose what I participate in today. This is my game. This is my life. I don't need to compete or argue or explain my moves. I don't need to focus so much on the "winning" at any cost, because the truth is, I have already won...simply by existing. I have the power to put down these heavy burdens, to lighten my load, and turn my full attention inward to swim freely and blissfully in the Kingdom of Heaven which exists within me. That is where the Light shines from. That is where life explodes in Love and in joy. That is the place I connect with Source. Nothing else matters. I will not forfeit. I will not conform to any false source outside of myself.
