Dear Reader...
How far can grace travel in just thirteen months? ... As far as our minds can imagine; as far as our hearts can reach; and as far as we, who live from an ever expanding spirit of true connection and friendship, extend ourselves to others.
If activity truly is genius, as Earnest Holmes revealed, then the following list of nations where "A Touch of Grace" is now received is cause for celebration:
Anguilla... Argentina... Australia... Azerbaijan... Bahrain... Belgium... Canada... Chile... Croatia... Egypt... Estonia... France... Germany... Ghana... Guatemala... Hong Kong... Hungary... Iceland... India... Ireland... Israel... Italy... Japan... Jordan... Kenya... Kuwait... Malaysia... Mali... Malta... Mauritius... Namibia... Netherlands... Netherlands Antilles... New Zealand... Nigeria... Norway... Oman... Peru... Philippines... Poland... Portugal... Romania... Singapore... Slovenia... South Africa... Spain... Sri Lanka... Sweden... Switzerland... Syrian Arab Republic... United Arab Emirates... United Kingdom... United States of America...
Just imagine... an incredible number of people, in fifty-three nations—approximately one third of the world—now read this newsletter... and it is you, by sharing it with others and forwarding it on, who deserves the "Genius Award."
I thank you all, from the center of my heart, for not only helping to make my dream come true, but for making the Universal Dream—the dream of One Enlightened Humanity—come true, as well.
We can do whatever it is we believe we can do; and when we combine our unbending belief with right action—when we take just one more step—we are no longer living in a world of challenges, but in a world of infinite and beautiful possibilities.
I am so glad that I am here with you; and that you are here with me. Walking together, is truly the most joyful and enlightened way to travel... know that I could never have accomplished so much so quickly on my own; and I thank you, once again, for the pleasure of your company.
Love & Light, ...Heather O’Hara

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BOOK EXCERPT: “ENLARGING OUR THOUGHT” ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------by Ernest Holmes
We can never stand still in our thought. Either we will be growing or else we will be going back. As we can attract to ourselves only that of which we first have a mental likeness, it follows that if we wish to attract larger things we must provide larger thoughts. This enlarging of consciousness is so necessary that too much cannot be said about it.
Most people get only a short way and then stop: they cannot seem to get beyond a certain point; they can do so much and no more. Why is it that a person in business does just about so much each year? We see people in all walks of life, getting so far, never going beyond a certain point. There must be a reason for everything; nothing happens, if all is governed by law, and we can come to no other conclusion.
When we look into the mental reason for things we find out why things happen. The man who gets so far and never seems to go beyond that point is still governed by law; when he allows his thoughts to take him out into larger fields of action, his conditions come up to his thought; when he stops enlarging his thought he stops growing. If he would still keep on in thought, realizing more and still more, he would find that in the outer form of things he would be doing greater things.
There are many reasons why a man stops thinking larger things. One of them is a lack of imagination. He cannot think of anything more to follow than that which has already happened. Another thought works like this: "This is as far as any one can go in my business." Right here he signs his own death warrant. Often a person will say, "I am too old to do bigger things." There he stops. Some one else will say, "Competition is too great"; and here is where this man stops; he can go no further than his thought will carry him.
All this is unnecessary when we realize that life is first of all Consciousness, and then conditions follow. We see no reason why a man should not go on and on, and never stop growing. No matter what age or what circumstance, if life is thought, we can keep on thinking bigger things. There is no reason why a man who is already doing well should not be able mentally to conceive of a still better condition. What if we are active? There is always a greater activity possible. We can still see a little beyond what has come before. This is just what we should do, see, even though it be but a little beyond our former thought. If we always practice this, we will find that every year we shall be growing, every month we shall be advancing; and as time goes on we shall become really great. As there is no stopping in that Power which is Infinite, as the Limitless is without bounds, so should we keep on trying to see more and greater possibilities in life.
We should definitely work every day for the expansion of thought. If we have fifty customers a day we should endeavor to believe that we have sixty. When we have sixty we should mentally see seventy. This should never stop; there is no stopping place in Mind.
Let go of everything else, drop everything else from your thought, and mentally see more coming to you than has ever come before; believe that Mind is establishing this unto you, and then go about your business in the regular way. Never see the limitation; never dwell upon it, and above all things else never talk limitation to any one; this is the only way, and there is no other way to grow a larger thought. The man with the big thought is always the man who does big things in life. Get hold of the biggest thing that you can think of and claim it for your own; mentally see it and hold it as a thing already done, and you will prove to yourself that life is without bounds.
—Ernest Holmes Excerpt from Creative Mind and Success
Remember...
"The journey of a thousand miles begins with one step." —Migamoto Musashi
Take that one step NOW and THINK BIG! You have absolutely nothing to lose and everything to gain... the power of a single, focused step is amazing; and when we take that step with enormous, undaunted confidence and anticipation... great things happen... like pyramids, electricity and gravity!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------POEM: "NO FURTHEST EDGE" --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- by Heather K. O'Hara
No Furthest Edge
Imagination is the energy of miracles.
It is limitless, ... it has no boundaries, ...no furthest edge.
Powerful, ...yet gentle, like the last kiss of a winter god, ... it is what created the galaxies found spinning within the anatomy of an apple seed.
—Heather K. O'Hara from AXIS, The Song in the Center of the Soul http://www.Quantum-Grace.com/books2.htm
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DID YOU KNOW? --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- by Heather K. O'Hara
Did you know?
That the Mind that does not worry about limits, has none...
That the man who dares to go "out on a limb" gets all the delicious apples that no one else can reach...
That "he who laughs last" may never get the chance to laugh at all...
That if you're afraid your life is boring it's because you're more afraid of living a life that is exciting...
That true success isn't found in the pot of gold at the end of the rainbow, but in the pot of colors of which the rainbow is made...
That there is no scale for weighing options; and that there is no scale big enough for weighing possibilities...
That your future is made of whatever you are thinking right now...
That the difference between "he who succeeds" and "he who fails" is he who takes one more step while thinking one more outrageous thought...
That every time you breathe a miracle has happened...
That the statement, "I AM," is infinitely more powerful than the statement, "YOU ARE" ...
That intelligence does not give birth to imagination; rather, it is imagination from which intelligence emerges and expands...
That "love" is the root of all good and that its opposite is not hate, but fear...
That true happiness is highly contagious, but only those who are willing to have it will ever get it...
And that when you finally "get it," the very best thing you can do with it is give it away...
That personal freedom means you have the right to smile whenever you want for no apparent reason...
That it is not the rose bush that has been cursed with thorns, but the thorn bush that has been blessed with roses...
That, to a child, there is no difference between a field of dandelions and a magnificent garden filled with beautiful golden flowers...
And that, as adults, it is not in the midst of the flowers that we must learn to identify the weeds, but in the midst of the weeds that we must learn to be the flowers...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- A LITTLE MAGIC AND A TOUCH OF GRACE... ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We have only one life to live this time around, and as serious as that might sound, let us always remember to make the most of it and never forget to have fun! Life is simple... it loves laughter, wonder, romance, joy, excitement and celebration! These are the divine characteristics of the Universe; and when they become "who we are," they attract all things good...
While I was writing Living on Level 7, I realized that one of the most important chapters in the book was the chapter called "Romancing the Universe." It was written on a whim—and as light hearted and silly as it may seem, I knew, once I had written it, that if I were to have left it out—Level 7 would be missing an ingredient that is just as important as forgiveness, gratitude and taking responsibility for our own lives.
The Universe is fueled by passion... it's the energy that pushes everything else to the level of "awe." And, like a breath of fresh air, this is the chapter that got the most "press." Almost everyone who has read Level 7, has commented about the incredible energy they felt swell up in them while reading this chapter... Some said it made them want to get up and dance! Others, couldn't believe what they had been missing!
Perhaps because we have been taught that romance is of no real value—just a passing moment that never lasts—we have overlooked something of remarkable value... Romance, passion, fire... the spice of the Gods!
The truth is... that a truth is only a philosophy until it is experienced. And it is my observation that those who suggest that romance is not as important as breath itself—feel that way simply because they have never experienced it as a way of life.
So, for you to enjoy... "Romancing the Universe" from Living on Level 7, Choosing a Life with a View...
Feel free to get up and dance!
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ROMANCING THE UNIVERSE ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------by Heather K. O'Hara
Romancing the Universe THE POWER OF ENCHANTMENT
The Universe adores you and it loves romance! Take your life to a higher level through intimate suggestion and perception...
Romance is love in action stirred by passion and desire. If you want Life to romance you, play the fascination game and use the power of enchantment! All that is romantically inclined will then chase after you!
Whisper. Swoon. Flirt. Smile that smile that says Come a little closer, my love... I've got something wonderful for you. Be a flame. Or a bonfire. Buy yourself some moonlight and wear it like a rare and precious jewel. Be charming. Possible. Be spontaneously provocative and exquisitely available for love. Work it. Be it. Choose it. Dream it.
Let Life write your name in the sand.
Wrap your arms around your Life and dance! Live it! Love it! Make it yours. Find your rhythm, choose your waltz—you are made of melody, my love, and Life wants nothing more than to dance this dance with you. Float. Fly. Touch. Give. Receive. Believe. Arrive. Tap your feet. Spin. Sway. Swirl. Sing your song! Be the music that so desperately desires you.
Let each breath you breathe be long, slow, deep, smooth and romantic. Let Life move through you like a slender stream of pale lavender dawn.
Softly. Slowly. Gently.
Let your words be tender, yet filled with swift crimson desire. Be an igniter and an exciter. Be from your heart and your soul!
Dream silk suits and satin gowns. Be elegant. Gallant. Graceful. ...Scatter diamonds everywhere you go.
Envision things that flow like warm gold and mysteriously unfold...
Order two desserts. Let them melt. Lick the spoon.
Let Life adore you! Dance to the edge and beyond. Go over the top and then further. Life is your lover—and it is hopelessly devoted to you. Be young. And playful. Live passionately. Life wants to be enchanted by a most enchanting you.
Be irresistible. Uncommon. Think sensuously. Keep your very best secret behind your eyes and dwell on it! Take long, lavish strides.
Think fire-thoughts.
Be magnanimously clever. Mystically enamoring. ...And bold.
Be Creative. Charismatic. Confident.
(Be a little Beethoven and a lotta rock 'n roll.)
Be magnetic. Captivating. Ravishing. ...And ever-so-alluring. Be more than memorable. Be unforgettable. Show a little lace. Go barefoot. Forget about polishing your shoes. Take off your tie, darling. Be deliciously divine. And unexpected. Communicate with your eyes. Walk toward instead of away from. Let your overcoat slide to the floor. Leave it there. Use every perfect flaw you have to your very best advantage.
Be magical. Daring. Opulent. Extraordinary. Bend like a willow. Stand tall like a reed. Let the sunlight kiss your face and feel brilliantly alive! Think extravagantly. Capture the wind. Smooth Life's worried brow. Caress the thoughts of midnight. Dream in shades of "enraptured" and "enthralling" and "sublime."
You have the power to be a moment that lasts forever.
Be that moment.
Now.
If it's time to say, "I love you Life," say it. If it's time to shout, "I want you Life!" shout it. If it's time to reach out and touch Life, reach for it and it, in turn, will want to reach for you. Let Life give you the kindness and attention you deserve. Never, ever be afraid to love. Never be afraid to tell Life what you feel. Give it your time and your attention, and its time and attention will come rushing home to you.
Be ready. Forever ready. And approachable.
Defy time.
Blush quietly.
Have yourself some fabulous fun. Enjoy. Be positively irresistible. This is your chance. Go for it! This is your Life. Let it be endlessly enchanting. This is your View. Be entranced by it! You can choose to seek or to see. You can choose to try or to do. You can choose to sit and wait and judge and complain, or you can choose to dance—it's up to you. Choose a life that begs for doubt and fear to appear or, choose a life with a view.
Because...
As you dream of Life, my love, so Life dreams of you.
—Heather K. O'Hara Excerpt from Living On Level 7, Choosing a Life with a View
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE ENERGY OF WILL AND PURPOSE --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- by John Randolph Price
By now, I trust you know that I absolutely love John Randolph Price... I know of no other person on Earth who can write a meditation quite as powerful as John does; and what is most amazing to me is that he always hits his mark (and mine!)... He never, ever misses!
Once again, from The Success Book by John Randolph Price, emerges this priceless jewel:
The power of God is working mightily in me now. I am hooked up to the Dynamo within, and I am electrified with the Divine Energy of Will and Purpose. I am quickened from head to toe, galvanized into action by the invincible currents flowing in and through me.
I am stirred, excited, and thrilled over the opportunity this day to be and do and have according to the unlimited Vision of the Master Self I AM.
I no longer stand in my way, for I am God in expression, and God does not have obstacles or obstructions. My consciousness is on fire with will and purpose, and I am fired up!
I now go forth to joyfully accomplish my mission.
—John Randolph Price from The Success Book
There is no way that anyone could speak these words (with enthusiasm) and not feel as if they were being launched into Paradise! Believe me... repeat this out loud and with GUSTO a few times every morning and you will experience a day like you have never had before! Go ahead, ...fire yourself up... I'll meet you in the next dimension!

Something to think about...
At the center of the circle, come together power and love, ... without this union, completeness does not exist, ... without this completeness, evolution stands still.
