So Much Has Been Given Me

joyceskaye.com Posted on May 31, 2022 by JoyceMay 31, 2022

One of this morning’s readings was focused on gratitude. It included the following quote: “The best and most beautiful things in the world cannot be seen or even touched—they must be felt with the heart. So much has been given me, I have no time to ponder over that which has been denied.” – Helen Keller Helen Keller was an American author and educator who was blind and deaf. Her education and training represent an extraordinary accomplishment in the education of persons with these disabilities. Now, I’d heard the first statement, but I’d never heard the second one, “So much has been given me, I have no time to ponder over that which has been denied.” It is quite humbling for me to hear those words from a person who had such a challenging life after becoming blind and deaf at 19 months of age due to an illness (possibly scarlet fever) and was left with only the sense of touch as a means to communicate with others. With the tremendous help and dedication of her remarkable teacher Anne Sullivan, she graduated from Radcliffe College, the first deaf blind person to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree. She led a rich … Continue reading →

Hope Lives in Me

“One must never, for whatever reason, turn his back on life.” — Eleanor Roosevelt “Today I will remember that I am necessary to others, that my life is not an accident, and that God has a purpose for me.” – “In God’s Care*: Daily Meditations on Spirituality in Recovery,” May 19 *As We Understand God The aforementioned words uplift my soul as I still wonder what I am to be when I grow up, what did I come into this lifetime to accomplish. I still don’t know, despite being in the sixth decade of my life. I do know that I’ve not yet completed whatever purpose Spirit has for me to do because I’m still here. At times I can feel discouraged and overwhelmed, without joy. I am grateful to always believe in hope; it is what keeps me going. I especially enjoyed these words from the May 17, 2022 “Science of Mind Magazine”: “Hope is the bird who feels the light and sings when dawn is still dark.” — Rabindranath Tagore “If it were not for the divine hope in us, our experiences would be more than the human mind could digest.” — Ernest Holmes Hope is a game … Continue reading →

Spirit’s Computer Lesson

joyceskaye.com Posted on May 17, 2022 by JoyceMay 17, 2022

I am so filled with joy and gratitude for Spirit’s computer lesson I received today! No, I wasn’t enrolled in software training or the like. My personal laptop had an Internet communication connection problem and I got through it with flying colors! That’s why I’m in my joy and gratitude (although the fact that the problem was resolved is nice too). When I say I got through it with flying colors I am referring to the way I conducted myself throughout the three-plus hours of troubleshooting… how I showed up to myself, the automated ISP tech support helper, the human ISP tech support person, and the Geek Squad rep. Since my work laptop was connecting to the Internet just fine, I knew the issue was specific to my personal laptop, so my first step was not to check with the Internet Service Provider (ISP). I started by researching and following troubleshooting tips online; they didn’t solve the problem. Nevertheless, I appreciated the online knowledge share, especially since I know the time and effort that goes into creating such content. I remained calm and peaceful, moving onto the next step. I contacted the ISP so they could check the Wi-Fi router … Continue reading →
