May your walls know joy; may every room hold laughter and every window open to great possibility. ~ Mary Anne Radmacher-Hershey

It’s hard for me to believe, but today’s post is our 1,000th — that’s one thousand! It seems it was only yesterday we started on this fun adventure.

I thought this would be an appropriate occasion to share with you some of my favorite quotations from Spirit. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do.

Here they are, in no particular order.

Spirit

  • Laughter, joy, and fun have many powerful benefits for you and for your bodies, minds, and spirits.
  • There is no death. Death is an illusion you have tortured yourselves with for all of human history. It’s time to stop that nonsense!
  • You could not recognize greatness in others if you did not have greatness within yourself. Honor that recognition.
  • Trust everything works out for your highest good — because it always does.
  • The present moment is the only place you will find joy and peace. You will never find them in the past or the future.
  • You are perfect just as you are. Do you believe that? It’s true.
  • Love is the only way you can be truly healed. Animals are the greatest healers because they love you unconditionally, asking nothing in return.
  • The best thing you can do for others and the world is to put your own happiness and well-being first.
  • Anything less than joy, less than happiness is not what God wants for you. Anything less than that is not what your spirit wants for you.
  • Remember this: At death your loved ones leave only their bodies. They do not leave you.
  • Speak your truth kindly. Think kind thoughts. Always.
  • You will always know what’s right for you by the joy it brings you.
  • Many humans often ask themselves “Why am I here?” We can answer that question with one word: Joy.
  • Loving yourself unconditionally is the single most important thing you can do in this lifetime.
  • Have fun. Play more. Love more. Life is not serious. It’s supposed to be fun. It’s supposed to be joyful. It’s that simple. Don’t make it complicated or difficult.
  • If you allow and accept animals into your lives they will heal you.
  • Joy is your connection to the divine energy you may call God. Joy is your bond with your spirit.
  • Let go of situations and relationships that no longer serve you.
  • Cherish and embrace your now. It’s where miracles flow easily and effortlessly. It’s the only place where miracles flow.
  • Let go of fear. Choose only love.
  • Joy is your life’s purpose, pure and simple. Joy is your birthright. Joy is natural.
  • All you have is the present moment. It’s where all your power is.
