Success

My imperfections and failures are as much a blessing from God as my successes and talents.  ~ Mahatma Gandhi

Life perspectives

 I played bingo today....with my boys and some lovely ladies...(yes, I had other "things" planned to do, but...)

...it's funny, when you sit with someone whose time is so delicate, that so many of your daily concerns dry up and blow away as dust....being "present" and gifting your presence into the life of another, and they feel encouraged......how can you NOT feel blessed (blissed) by that?
...considering the gift of presence ❤

Peace, Love, and Light

 Good morning! And we have peace...And we are love...and the golden glow of sun in my home is....

Enjoy a BEAUTY-FILLED day ❤

Enjoy your life

 

There is deepness of experience to be found in the heights of joy.

Be as Love would be

 Good morning! Be as Love would be....Where, in the situation that you are in is love calling you to be as love? Is every cry, annoyance, frustration, etc. a call for more love?

I was reminded of sleepless and pain-filled moments where I surrendered to embracing my boys in their distress when they were young....and now, when they see I am tired or in pain they look out for me and take care of me. Sometimes the "fruit" ripens longer than we would like from the seeds that we plant. Plant the seed in love and know that the love is the fruit in the moment and the bounty of the future.
Have a fruitful and loving day! ❤

Something to remember when cleaning and clearing out the stuff that no longer serves

 Good morning!

When we apply ourselves to cleaning and clearing out the stuff that no longer serves, we should also consider what changed item or experience we would like in its place. It's more of an exchange...not to just clean and hope to remains blank. If you intend for space put "space" in its place. Otherwise, it will be filled with whatever comes along.

" “When an impure spirit comes out of a person, it goes through arid places seeking rest and does not find it. Then it says, ‘I will return to the house I left.’ When it arrives, it finds the house swept clean and put in order. Then it goes and takes seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and live there. And the final condition of that person is worse than the first.” " Luke 11:24-26
Have an intentionally amazing day!! Enjoy! ❤

Sawubona. To see and bee seen by one another... in love

 Yesterday while I sat with a friend by the library a man walked up to me...he wasn't completely lucid, but clear enough to connect and share his grief...sharing that he went through a divorce and his wife took everything...that he sleeps in a parkade now...

As much as he had this story to share (do not get attached to the details), the part that stood out the most as he held my hands is that he said he had nothing to give. So I asked if he would smile for me...I had little to share myself, but encouragement and connection I have a wealth of....and his smile was radiantly beautiful....I will never forget the gift of his smile.
How do you offer your wealth for the encouragement of others (and ultimately yourself) ? Your "wealth" is nothing but a burden if not shared for benefit beyond yourself...
Consider and connect....
Sawubona ❤

What song does your life sing?

 Good morning! Telling my life with His Words.....Ooooooo.....singing it into a new song/day. As though each day is a song, what tune do you play for others to hear? Because if you are seen or noticed by others you are being heard...the song your life sings is playing...so TUNE IT UP! Mek it sound nice....with melodies, bridges, inspiring lyrics....let that song ring out with His joy and flow....

Enjoy de tune!!

Imagining the best for your health

 What if....your health is not a figment of your imagination (not tangible), but in part it is a result of what you have imagined (solid and actual)?

And what if your imagination would most want for you to be healthy, happy, wealthy, and wise.....what would THAT really look like?? mmmmmm....
...off to play with children and imagine for wonderful possibilities ❤ (and health)

Grateful that the I live a "detox" lifestyle

 Good morning!! WOW what a day yesterday. Listened to a great message about pride (way to recognize & own it and change it...), got to watch the FC soccer game, kids got in some bouncy castle time, enjoyed a full day of family time and the big guy was able to buy his own pokemon cards

🙂 He was just thrilled that we found the pack he was looking for (Thanks Nana for the birthday gift 🙂 )....AND Had a serious migraine with surging body pain and my mouth tasted like I drank cologne..it was quite painful.
I know they have drastically changed the composition of what we know as scent and fragrance....whatever happened to using the dew from roses, and oils from verbena and white flowers to make a flacon of fragrance? Now it a series of ethers designed in a lab? Chemicals that may have been intentionally created or accidentally discovered to smell "nice" without fully outlining the effects (or not...I have been reading MSDS sheets on some of these components and it's a little shocking)....but all the same...this is not just me alone who experiences this....(ok, rant over....)
All I really know is today...I am so grateful!!! Grateful that the I live a "detox" lifestyle...I still require additional "recovery" and extra water (daily), but at least the pain and other side effects don't last so long after exposure. I feel a WHOLE lot better than how I felt going to bed last night. AND specific and consistent prayer also works wonders. That dialogue keeps me in a "detox'ed" state of mind (and heart) and knowing that I love my relationship with God keeps me focused past pain and forward into healing and encouragement. Blessed am I to be in this new and hydrated day 🙂
Have a wonder-filed Monday ❤ ❤
