I am a Mirror for Love and Light, but never for Anger or Fear.
~Jonathan-Lockwood Huie
GOOD MORNING FAMILY!
What steps did you take today to shine your light?
Your actions need not be profound. You don’t need to make headlines.
Simply connect with the love you naturally know how to express and allow that love to fuel your thoughts, feelings, and actions.

All too often, we say yes to others whenever we are asked to do something, but deep down we feel resentful even though it was our decision in the first place. We suppress those feelings of resentment, but emotions like resentment are energy and energy has to go somewhere. So it does, those negative feelings express themselves through your body and begin to corrode at the bond between you and the people in your life. What we really resent is the fact that every time we are asked to do something, we feel faced with decision to do what would make us happy and be a bad, unlovable person or to do something we don't want to do and remain a good, lovable person. We develop the habit of never saying no because we want to be loved. We set ourselves up for failure by never saying no because we commit ourselves to a life lived for other people and not for ourselves. This isn't sustainable, because it takes a toll on our energy, body and relationships. In this Ask Teal Episode, Teal Scott teaches us how to say no.

Heavenletter #4657 Befitting a Child of God , August 25, 2013
God said:
There is a fundamental observation in world life, and that is that people like to complain. I say this with certainty. There are even complaint departments. Anyway, I ask Myself, if My Children didn’t like complaining, why would they complain? Why would they complain time and time again? And why would you? Why would you?
In the act of complaining, a human being is pointing fingers at another, or a congregation of others called a county or state or country. Hey, it’s true. Others and congregates of others may not be any wiser than you. At the same time, others are not responsible for the situations you find yourself in. You have something to do with the situation you are in. You got there. You weren’t looking where you’re going. You were not thinking. No matter how innocent you were, how unsuspecting, you took part.
When you complain, you are saying, “Woe is me. Woe is me. Poor me. Poor neglected unfairly-treated me.” Stop doing that. It is not befitting a child of God.
The world does serve you. That very county or your employer or your employees do serve you. They are serving you right now.
You may complain about the roads in your city. There are potholes, too many of them. Instead of griping about the department of roads and highways, will you kindly remind yourself that you are driving on a paved road that is available to you and, for Heaven’s sakes, most of the road is in good shape. A road has been paved for you.
If you fall off your bike, naturally, you pick your bike and yourself up. Instead of grumbling that you fell, aren’t you glad you fell on the grass and not the cement?
If you complain about litter in the streets, pick up the litter.
If you complain about the poor state of the neighborhood you live in, get a paintbrush and help your neighbor paint. Why not? I have to ask you, why not? Why not bless the world?
What a drain of energy it is to complain. It is you who chooses something to complain about. Complaining is bad-mouthing. And when you complain, you are an excellent fault-finder.
If I may be frank, who appointed you the overseer of the world? Are you the Princess and the Pea? Are you the Queen of England? Who said everything is to be the way you want?
When you must focus on the ills of the world or on your own ills, you are tending to cast others as responsible for you. You are foisting your own responsibilities onto others or another, and so you reproach. You cast those stones. Perhaps you are the first to cast them. Perhaps you are the last as well. Perhaps it is a continuous pattern that you daily find yourself casting stones. The stones you cast are blame, throwing away your responsibility right and left.
Beloveds, blame is never the issue. When you blame, you can know you are sidetracked. Even when you blame yourself, you are off-track. Blame is a detour. It is like a magician’s trick. It makes you look at something when, all the while, there is something else important you are not seeing.
When you complain, you are stewing in your own juice. You are sitting in a cannibal’s stewpot and complaining that the water is too hot. Get out of the stewpot, beloveds. Stop sitting in it. No more complaints. Blessings from you now.

----------------CLICK HERE TO WATCH----------------
O.K., I got the bio of them below from their Facebook page. You can read that, or... you can watch this YouTube video "MUSIC BOX WITH NOBLE CREATURES", and listen to them tell you in their own words what their band is about.
----------------CLICK HERE TO WATCH----------------
Noble Creatures was set loose in 2008, introducing a unique breed of tropical rock and soul-funk grooves to the streets of Los Angeles. Their blend of sounds light up any venue and incites spontaneous dancing from casual and not-so-casual listeners alike, apparent from signature tracks like “Hard To Come By” a funk-groove track accompanied by face-melting electric guitar riffs, to “Beautiful Mistake” a soft-sexy-lullaby reggae song. Their performances are passionate, raw, and electric. Their sound is unmistakable and inviting. Together, Noble Creatures is an experience that leaves an impression with the senses.
With a debut full-length album currently en route, Noble Creatures has been focusing all of its energy on obtaining opportunities to perform and collectively evolve as a band. The group has played countless shows entertaining crowds in and around the L.A. area. As of late, they’ve broken into the TV world with a 30 minute feature on El Segundo TV: The Music Box, and by being featured on the talk show Marty's Corner which is aired throughout Southern California. They have also entered the festival circuit performing at Pasadena's Rock City Fest, Topanga Days, the Orange County Fair, Santa Barbara Fair & Expo, the Santa Barbara World Festival, and many others. The band has also sought out to be involved in charitable events and have since had the opportunity to perform for the Changing Tides Orphanage, the Rotary Club, Beads of Courage and the Leukemia Lymphoma Society. Noble Creatures plans to build a community, continue to integrate different musical traditions, and be involved in various causes that they believe in.
We believe in the power of music to break through cultural & personal boundaries, to heal, inspire, motivate and bring people together. Catch us on Twitter, Myspace, and Official Website: http://www.noblecreatures.com/

And now, as always, I'm gonna end this post with the most beautiful song in this whole, entire world.
