This sentence crossed my mind several times this week, I read it in a blog, I even heard somenone telling it on the radio… Spirit wants to convey : “Be patient my dear friends, everything is okay ! All Good things come to those who wait…”
Or should we rather say : “All good things come to those who are patient ?”
Patience is about how we use the space and time between our desire and the manifestation of it, between the dream and our current reality.
Patience is a virtue, it isn’t just waiting, it is a waiting plus ! Patience requires a mixture of ingredients, a mixture of different qualities.
It’s easy to focus on good things to happen when everything goes well, it’s not that easy when everything goes bad !
Patience requires a positive outlook on things. It is waiting and having the courage to withstand all opposing forces.
Patience requires our ability to wait and persist. Patience is perseverance.
Do you have a buddy, a BFF, someone you tell all your secrets to, who is always there for you, usually at the right time and the right place ?
Have you ever been wondering why helping others seems to be a piece of cake for them ? Why everything they say and do is so “spot on” and natural ? It’s like they are God sent !
No doubt about it : Having a good buddy is like having a personal coach or a mentor ! Consider yourself lucky when you have one at your disposal !
Buddies…Who are they, what drives them ? Let’s have a look at some of their characteristics and maybe – most importantly – how you can turn into one of them too…
Buddies always listen !
Because of their empathic nature they are careful listeners and are able to read between the lines. “I’m fine !” “Really ? What a load of bollocks darling !”
No need to beat around the bush, no bullshitting them ! They will get to the core almost immediately !
Even when you lose the plot or are going collywobbles,they don’t judge, they don’t blame. They know who you truly are and that this is just a silly phase you’re going through…
You are only experiencing a moment of temporary insanity !
Buddies believe !
They are here to help you keep your dreams alive ! They know when you are sabotaging your progress and they easily spot the people around you killing your vibe !
Their mission is to help you deal with the hooligans from your past and to release them for good.
They help you beat the bullies in the present and give you tools to stop the belittling, the jealousy and the hatred.
They believe in you when no one else does, with them you are never completely alone or lost ! They will never give up on you !
Buddies inspire !
They show you how to keep moving forward, heading up high !
They know how to keep you motivated ! They stimulate you and inspire you in different ways…
They poke you and sometimes even provoke you ! “And…cut ! Action !”
“Can’t, must, won’t, impossible,…” are words that have been erased out of their dictionnary. “Who said it can’t be done ? Bob’s your uncle !”
Buddies go all the way !
Don’t ask how they do it…They always have a plan and it’s usually as hot as their pants ! Expect the unexpected or things to happen accidentally on purpose !
They know how to put things in higher gear and will always go the full monty with you !
Buddies care !
Buddies care and take care of things ! They sense when words are useless and when you are in need of a good hug, a reassuring hand on the shoulder or a distraction from your worries.
They will support you and surprise you with unusual gifts to show their appreciation. They will take you for a walk, let you sing karaoke or maybe will go bungee jumping with you !
Everything they do is done wholeheartedly, with the intention to lift you up higher !
Buddies cheer you up !
Buddies are genuine and honest, they are hardly able to tell a lie. They carry their heart on their tongue and can sometimes be offensive towards others…
Strangely enough they always get away with it, as they are charming as hell and…well, they are as cool as a cucumber !
They are such fun to be around, they always look at the bright side of life ! They are always positive and excited ! They are so full of beans !
And last but not least they are always in for a fabulous joke that results in a good belly laugh !
Recently a friend’s 10-year-old saw the tattoos on my wrists and she started asking questions.
“Why do you have a cross tattooed on your arm ? Do you believe in Jesus ?”, she asked. I told her : “Yes I do”.
She looked surprised. “No one goes to church anymore”, she said. “Me neighter”, I confessed.
“Jesus didn’t say we had to follow a church or a religion”, I continued. “He was showing us the way how we could find God within ourselves. People worship his image instead of really listening to what he has to say. The cross became a symbol of death instead of faith and ressurection !

She turned to my right arm this time. “And what is this ?”, she asked. This is the OM symbol”, I said. “It’s the vibration of the universe, the first sound ever made on earth, it is the sound of God.”
I pulled a 136,10 tuning fork out of my bag. “Close your eyes”, I asked. “C’mon, you can trust me”. I stroke the tuning fork on my knee and I held it close to her ear. She immediately opened her eyes when she heard the sound. She was in awe !
“You can use this OM fork when you meditate, it will get you easily in a calm and peaceful state.”
“You can also use it when you are chanting mantras. Mantras carry blessings. My favorite one is “Om Namah Shivaya”. It is a mantra given by Haidakhan Babaji to his devotees all around the world. He brought a message of truth, love, simplicity and service to mankind.”
“Just as Jesus did ?” the little girl asked.
“Yes exactly”, I said ! “They do have a lot in common. They are both avatars.”
She really got interested when she heard that word. “You mean kind of like Aang ?”
I nodded. “Avatars usually come to earth for a restricted period of time to guide people on the path of liberation and to show them their own divinity. They come to rekindle the fire in people’s hearts. Some are even amongst us right now, without our knowing. They are here, behind the scenes, ready to help us !”
She was a little dazzled now ! “So you have two avatar symbols on your body !”, she proclaimed !
“That’s one way of seeing it”, I answered. “For me they are just reminders to send forth blessings to mankind and to never forget who we are !”
“Man is a creature of love. What has been created in love, can only live in love.”
Bruno Gröning
The teaching of Bruno Gröning is based on the influence that spiritual forces have on human beings. This influence is greater than most people realise.
Bruno Gröning compared a person to a battery. In daily life, everyone burns up energy. However, often not enough new life energy is absorbed to replace it. In the same way that an empty battery is incapable of functioning, a body without energy is also unable to fulfill its tasks. The consequences are fatigue, exhaustion, nervousness, anxieties and finally, illness.
Bruno Gröning’s teaching explains how an individual can obtain new energy. The belief in goodness is a necessary prerequisite, as is the will to be healthy. The human body is constantly surrounded by healing waves which only have to be absorbed. According to Bruno Gröning, no illness is incurable, and this fact is confirmed by the healings that have occurred and have been medically verified. These healings are spiritual and therefore not dependent on Bruno Gröning being physically present.
“Worries have brought emotional suffering to humanity and have taken such deep root that people are bound to get sick. One person emotionally burdens the next. People are miseducated; they have distanced themselves from what is natural; many have lost their belief in God. But whoever loses the divine path, also loses his health.”
If a person wishes to regain his health through Bruno Gröning, he must be prepared to let go of “evil.” He must turn his back on what is bad – the illness – and part with it, no longer think “my asthma, my rheumatism” and so on. This is not always easy. It demands inner transformation. The person has to change his way of thinking. One shouldn’t habitually think about the illness, but rather believe in health. One must take up the belief that even incurable illnesses can be healed.
“To engage with illness is to hold on to it and block the path of divine energy. A person should separate themselves from the illness, not regard it as their property, but rather as see it as something evil. Illness does not belong to the human being!”
Thoughts are spiritual energies
Man is not submissively subjected to whatever comes into his mind. He himself can decide which thoughts he will tolerate and which not. But he must make this choice carefully, not superficially. There is an energy behind every thought; a positive thought is constructive, a negative one, destructive. A joyful message inspires, a sad one discourages! Thoughts are spiritual energies. They embody a power; a power which humanity today is barely aware of. A thought born of love can inspire a person to lay down his life for another. A thought spawned from hatred can drive him to kill another. “Beware of every evil thought!”
“Trust and believe. The divine power helps and heals.”
It requires setting aside every scientific, every logical way of thinking and adopting a belief in something higher. Bruno’s teaching is based on totally different fundamentals than today’s materialistic spirit, which has arisen from intellectual thinking. This is why he often said, “I cannot be understood by the intellect”.
