A Most Benevolent Outcome

  • Posted on November 22, 2011 at 12:02 AM

Hello,

I have shared some info on using Most Benevolent Outcome requests to your angels for assistance with any problems or concerns you may have. The MBO guru is Tom T. Moore and he calls it “The Gentle Way” his link is on my spiritual links page or you can go directly to his site from here.

So, I have been instructed to SHARE my MBO, and a pretty amazing story it is.

The week of November 11, I needed (and still do) painting done per my insurance company. Having a limited budget for paint, and having researched the prices for exterior paint especially- off we went.

Here was my EXACT MBO- Most Benevolent Outcome request: ” I request a Most Benevolent Outcome for finding BLACK, FLAT, EXTERIOR Paint that fits my current very SMALL budget ($20 borrowed dollars + a little more).

We made various stops at places to  look at kitchens (my next dream project), bathrooms and lots of other stuff from places in Baltimore that offer these things on consignment. Quite a lot of goodies I now have in mind!

Anyway, I still needed paint. We went to Home Depot (not my store of choice mind you). When I spoke with the paint master, I advised him that I was looking for FLAT black exterior paint. AND I was on a very limited budget. Bear in mind, my thought was I could get 1 gallon of paint at the most. I did have some money, just had the extra $20- just in case.

Well, he said something about paint on sale (which of course I did not see), walked over and found the paint. Yup, on sale at $11 per gallon. Not out of the woods yet. I had “requested” flat BLACK paint. That needed a specif “ending” number to ensure there was enough room in the can to add the black tint.  So, I went back to check- Now I am getting excited! I found one can with the correct number and for $11 I was going to get 2 CANS! Whoopeeeeeee! Found the other can, and he added the tint. To top that all off, the paint was Martha Stewart.

I laughed all the way home. Not only did I get my MBO-RECEIVED, it was EXACTLY what I had requested, doubled down even.

You can get exactly what YOU want. You (and I) just need to let go of the NEED to control HOW the good stuff gets to us. Much  more fun. I love surprises and am willing to get surprised each and every day.

Thank you my angels for the HUGE reminder.

Thank YOU for reading! Be Blessed.

You are Super Bad!

Hello,

“You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, ‘I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.’ You must do the thing you think you cannot do.”
~Eleanor Roosevelt

I Got Soul- and I’M SUPER BAD!  Well when you think you are not “all that” come on back and take a listen. YOU have a soul, and YOU ARE Super BAD- Bad in this case is awesome, awe inspiring, filled with funk and spunk. Fun, Joyous and the One Blessed to be able to do it all- SUPER BAD!

This song was on my mind several months ago and it took me this long to find the song and post to my blog. It was a day that I was cooking (which I love) and the song just randomly came to mind.  Never have been what I would consider a James Brown fan, but he sure knew how to get the boogie on!  The song reminded me that no matter how bleak the situation- I AM Super BAD!  So are YOU!

Now get to jamming!

Thanks for reading!

Let’s Talk About Being Kind! Part II

Thanks for coming back. Enjoy the post and your day!

“Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.”
~Buddha

Words are so underestimated. I am at the point where I will no longer engage when enraged. Just leads to a bad ending. My issue is that I can say something that is truthful in the most hurtful way.  Usually, I will NOT remember what I said. I said my piece, I feel better and you know how I feel.

Should be the end of the argument.  But, no, that is when the fighting starts. Even when you speak “truth” some will feel attacked.  And the way truth is spoken does feed into this perspective. So,  I will end with “Think before you speak”.  Someone is depending on YOU to be the bigger person. That is why you are HERE. Get to work!

Be Kind
Speak Kindly
Think Kindly
Act Kinder!

Let’s Talk About Being Kind! Part I

Hello Again!

Great Quotes from Frannie. Just something that has been on my mind for the last several days. It is almost shocking when you actually see or receive acts of kindness from strangers. Definately reflects the world in which we life.
This is Part I. Part II will post on 11/17/11.

“Kindness in words creates confidence. Kindness in thinking creates profoundness Kindness in giving creates love.”
~Lao-Tzu

Kind: of a sympathetic or helpful nature
Loving-Kindness: tender and benevolent affection

Such a gentle word that so few appreciate. These days, kindness almost brings a speechlessness, not because it is not recognized, but because it is RARE!

Sure, we are kind (or attempt to be) to our families and friends, but what about that co-worker who gets on your last nerve? Or your boss (and I have had some HORRIBLE bosses). Not easy to be kind with these people is it?

The quote basically requests that you START with your words. Be aware of what you say and how you say it. Also be aware that even the most innocent remark can unleash a firestorm your way. That may have nothing to do with you and everything to do with the other person, but again, no one said this would be EASY!

I would think that THINKING words of kindness would be much easier. Guess it is up to you and what you feel comfortable with doing.

Action of course is everything. Acting with kindness requires a determination that no matter what, you will hold and maintain YOUR center.  It is so important to acknowledge that you and only you are responsible for your words, thoughts and deeds.

Let’s use our time to make sure that what we give out to the world is worthy of who and whose we are.

Be Kind
Speak Kindly
Think Kindly
Act Kinder!

Thanks for reading!

Michele Bachman gets Mic Checked!

CProtesters interrupted a speech by Republican presidential candidate Michele Bachmann in Mount Pleasant. The protesters stood up and began shouting “Mic check!” and told her she was more concerned with dividing Americans than helping them.

Transcript:

“Mic check!

Mic check!

This will only take a minute | We have a message for Mrs. Bachmann.

You capitalize on dividing Americans | claiming people that disagree with you | are unpatriotic socialists | and you promote discrimination.

This does not help the American People.

You parade as a grassroots candidate | but your campaign is funded | by Americans For Prosperity | a group that takes advantage | of legalized money laundering.

This does not help the American People.

You cater to the One Percent | you oppose paying hardworking Americans | a living wage | and refuse | to promote realistic solutions | to economic problems.

This does not help the American people.

This 501(c)(4) | is funded by the Koch Brothers | One of of many organizations | that engage | In misinformation| and drowns out the voice | of the American people | A disturbing result | of the Citizens United decision.

This does not help the American people.

We demand an end to legitimized corruption | through a constitutional reversal | of the Citizens United decision.

This will help the American people.

Have a pleasant day.”
