”Be willing to try new things!
If you don’t, how will you know what you enjoy?
There’s so much value in challenging yourself to do something different.
You may not stick with an activity,
but the point is you tried it!”
— Craig Melvin,
news anchor of Today, co-host of 3rd Hour of Today, and author of the children’s book I’m Proud of You.”
Again, a week is behind us. In case certain things went wrong, let us put them right. And today, on Monday, let us start anew, fresh. Let us find ways today to foster inner peace so we can reflect that peace in our actions. Let us be a seed of sunflowers of love and peace.
Day after day, we are confronted with all kinds of issues that can keep us busy at that moment, but also for longer than a day.
How we view all these issues will occupy and make us our day but also our many years of life…. We need to realise that we have a choice in how much we are influenced by the people and events around us.
Whether we should believe in miracles is another matter, but they can exist and they can happen to us. We must dare to believe in them and dare to move mountains.
“Life may cut you down, yet your roots are strong beneath. You will rise once more.”
~ Alec Depledge ❤
Whatever happens to us, we have to keep holding onto hope.
If we look at the world today, it doesn’t look much brighter than at the time of the first qualified female watchmaker in the Netherlands. The catechisation course teacher who also started a boy scout club for girls and grew up in a family hiding Jews, and ended up with her sister Betsie via the Oranjehotel and camp Vught in the German concentration camp Ravensbrück, was not afraid to send thoughts of peace and hope into the world with her pen..
She who saw misery and healing up close, knew all too well what the value of the inner being was and how we could keep strong by keeping our eyes on the good and the Supreme.
Each of us lives under different living conditions. One has it a bit easier than the other, but everyone has their own problems.
In our brain, a lot of thoughts may rush past. Especially now that it is time for autumn storms, where we see the trees swishing back and forth while they have to unload their discoloured leaves. Even though it can sometimes go wild outside and we hear vultures in the wind, we have to let our thoughts settle in private. As a calm sea, we must float peacefully through life.
Fleeing from all the earthly violence, Swaying on the gentle waves of time, let’s drift further to quiet places where peace can be found.
“I saw London red buses turn into tanks: the traumas of war never go away.”
– The war in Gaza has brought back a flood of memories for A&E consultant Dr Waheed Arian, who as a 12-year-old child had to flee rocket attacks on the streets of Kabul.
Erg genoeg kunnen wij bepaalde processen in het leven van de mens niet tegenhouden.
Het is heel mooi wanneer wij de pasgeborene de eerste geluidjes en bewegingen zien maken. De eerste stappen mogen ons ontroeren. Trots mogen wij zijn op die eerste verwezenlijkingen van die oh zo jonge mens.
De mens groeit op en wordt wijzer, steeds meer vaardiger om zich uit te drukken en uit de slag te trekken.
De wereld begint te vertragen nu de winter nadert en we hebben deze gelegenheid om dankbaar te zijn.
We hebben de tijd om de heiligheid van het leven te eren, tijd om blij te zijn met ons verleden en hoopvol voor onze toekomst, tijd om blij te zijn met de mensen in ons leven en tijd om eerlijk en oprecht te zijn in alle dingen ❤
Het komt zelfs zo ver dat niet enkel het lichaam de jaren begint te vertonen, maar dat ook de hersenen niet meer mee willen, zoals vroeger.
Met de jaren zou men denken, komt de wijsheid en kunde, maar ook begint men de weerslag te zien van meerdere tegenslagen en ziekten. Na een tijd kan men het verouderende lichaam zien.
Men gaat zich afragen hoe het gesteld is met de geest van die ‘bejaarde’.
**
Bad enough, we cannot stop certain processes in human life.
It is very beautiful when we see the newborn making its first sounds and movements. The first steps may move us. We can be proud of those first achievements of that oh so young human being.
Man grows up and becomes wiser, more and more skilled at expressing himself and getting out of the way.
The world begins to slow down as winter approaches and we have this opportunity to be thankful.
We have the time to honour the sacredness of life, time to be happy with our past and hopeful for our future, time to be joyous with the people in our life, and time to be honest and truthful in all things ❤
Rudolf Steiner said:
As people grow older, they do not become weak or even feeble-minded, but they become more spiritual (German: geistig-seelischer). Only then the body is worn out and one cannot bring the spiritual-psychic, which one has formed, to revelation through the body. This is similar to a pianist, who could become an ever better player; however, if the piano is worn out, one cannot notice anything. If you want to know his abilities as a pianist only from his piano playing, however, the piano is out of tune and has broken strings, you will not be able to tell much from his playing.
Thus, Kant, when he was an old man and feeble-minded, became, for the spiritual world, not feeble-minded but great (German: glorios) {Rudolf Steiner – GA 181 – Erdensterben und Weltenleben – Berlijn, 2 april 1918 (bladzijde 185)}
Als de mensen ouder worden, worden ze niet zwak of zelfs zwakzinnig, maar ze worden geestelijker (Duits: geistig-seelischer). Alleen is dan het …
For the control of thought and feeling there is a further means of education in the acquirement of the faculty that we may call positiveness.
There is a beautiful legend that tells of how the Christ Jesus, accompanied by some other persons, passed by a dead dog lying on the roadside. While the others turned aside from the hideous spectacle, the Christ Jesus spoke admiringly of the animal’s beautiful teeth.
One can school oneself in order to attain the attitude of soul toward the world shown by this legend. The erroneous, the bad, the ugly should not prevent the soul from finding the true, the good, and the beautiful wherever it is present. This positiveness should not be confused with non-criticism, with the arbitrary closing of the eyes to the bad, the false, and the inferior.
If you admire the “beautiful teeth” of a dead animal, you also see the decaying corpse. But this corpse does not prevent your seeing the beautiful teeth. One cannot consider the bad good and the false true, but it is possible to attain the ability not to be deterred by evil from seeing good, and by error from seeing truth.
”“‘Lest we forget’ is a powerful phrase to my generation.
Truth be told, it is our duty to pass on that sense of gratitude and humility to those who come after us,
to explain and keep on explaining. They must not be allowed to forget.” ”
* Peace Poem There’s a name for war and killingthere’s a name for giving inwhen you know another answerfor me the name is sin but there’s still time to turn aroundand make all hatred ceaseand give another name to livingand we could call it peace And peace would be the road we walkeach step along […]
And today, I hope you wake up with love, love for life, love for others, and most importantly, love for yourself. May every breath you take, every step you make, be filled with peace, joy and serenity! To find peace in the darkness and holiness in it all, this I wish for you. ~ Mitra Shahidi

Thoughts by and a Look at the world by Marcus Ampe on: Marcus Ampe's Space
Over the past two weeks I have been trying to get some order again in my office and under a fierce tidying session have thrown all unnecessary papers out the door. This morning, as I sat at the breakfast table and watched the paper collection drive by, I suddenly remembered that I had put all […]
In de afgelopen 2 weken en heb ik geprobeerd weer orde in mijn bureau te krijgen en heb onder een hevige opruimingssessie alle onnodige papieren de deur uitgegooid.

Bible prophecies do not deal only with the ancient past. They also accurately foretell events that are taking place in our day. But at the moment we focus at numerous prophecies preserved in the Hebrew Scriptures (commonly called the Old Testament) which long before the man was born told about events which would happen in his time and around him, his betrayal, humiliation, torture, execution, death, and burial. From those writings of the Old and New Testament nobody should have doubts who that man is who is called Immanuel, the son of man and Messiah, born out of the root of Jess in the tribe of king David.
In Scripture, all things are directed towards a man who was a servant of servants, in whom people should come to have faith. First we saw the connection with Eve and her seed, and in this article you may see the connection with Abraham.
Already in the Old Testament we find the focus on a son of man who is called the son of God, who shall be the most pure set apart (holy) servant of God who was been told about in the Garden of Eden, to be the one bruised.
Many Old Testament writers wrote about the prophet to come, about whom is spoke in the book of Moses and who shall be the special “Seed of a woman” given by God and who will bruise Satan’s head whilst his heel would be bruised with nails on the wooden stake.
