This inspirational Cayce quote really appeals to me because, let’s face it, life is full of hindrances and troubles. And, let’s face it also, it can be really fun figuring out how to make these troubles and hindrances into stepping-stones. I find that often, when I look back on my life, I can see how these challenges actually turned out to create wonderful personal growth for me and also even opportunities.

For, those things that are as hindrances or troubles MUST be turned into stepping-stones, and not stumbling-stones; else a soul falls backward rather than progresses.

These inspirational poem used to be posted above the keyboard of Gerald Andress, one of my high school teachers. From what I know of him, he lived by the ideals in this poem:
Not what we have ~ but what we use,
Not what we see ~ but what we choose.
These are the things that mar or bless
The sum of human happiness.The things nearby ~ not things afar,
Not what we seem ~ but what we are.
These are the things that make or break
That give the heart its joy or ache.Not what seems fair ~ but what is true,
Not what we dream ~ but what we do.
These are the things that shine like gems
Like stars in fortune’s diadems.Not what we take ~ but what we give,
Not as we pray ~ but as we live.
These are the things that make for peace
Both now and after time shall cease.
“I have learned that there is not time in these days in life to make things perfect. Good enough almost always works just as well and no one knows the difference except you.”

In my last post, I quoted Edgar Cayce on not really being dead. Today, I have an inspirational quote from Albert Einstein on being as good as dead!
“The fairest thing we can experience is the mysterious. It is the fundamental emotion which stands at the cradle of true art and true science. He who knows it not and can no longer wonder, no longer feel amazement, is as good as dead, a stuffed-out candle.”
Today I need some inspiration since I just lost some important video footage. I feel wretched. I guess I need to find something to feel amazed about.

I’ve worked and worked and worked all day today on the 2010 Edgar Cayce Calendar. All of the photography pages are ready. The calendar pages are finished and out for proofing at the Edgar Cayce Foundation to make sure I have quoted Edgar Cayce’s inspirational readings accurately. The front and back cover are done. The title page is done. I just couldn’t get the inside front cover finished tonight. It’s time to call it quits and pick up where I left off tomorrow.
