Success

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

Divine love

 Considering...a Love with no equal or opposite...insistent in its consistence...It's as constant as the sun and beyond... #eternal #Divinelove

Grace abounds

 Good morning! (And what a good mourning indeed

❤ )

I am different...not as in separate, but more whole. I accept that I am... that which I am...and have been created as. It's beautiful, special, and it continues to grow and change...and all through Grace and Glory ❤

Sustainable and beneficial

 Oh the joys!! Thinking about investments and realizing compounding occurs in 2 directions, but.....everyone gets excited about compounding interests AND the same get ready to through the "goat" under the bus when compounding "debt" becomes unmanageable ...another reason I want "sustainable", and "beneficial" to growth and life attached to the vision of my investments...

Adding value through connection

 A man walking down the street saw a man there asking for change and felt compelled to give. He reached into his pocket, and found it was a $20 bill, but yet....he felt compelled to give more....so he gave him a hug.

I'm sharing this, not to get a response on the $20 (LOL talk 'bout that later...), but I can relate...not to call out my folks, but they were very "British" from their upbringing and thus, not many hugs were shared...and now, as an adult, I have seen how open-armed, and open-hearted some of the most vulnerable people can be as well as...others who choose not to hug. Who would you most likely hug? A stranger on the street or one of your own family? There are GREAT gifts that we have to give and offer and many of which are free...let's start sharing those.
And as for the $20...he also gave the $20 as well. 😉

Keeping as "ready" as I can be by starting now

 Making the most of each moment by preparing and keeping myself in readiness to receive the wonders life has to offer. #mindset #perspective #changeisconstant

With and without comparison, how are you feeling today?

Good morning! LOL thank you Siberia for giving new gratitude and perspective to this snowy and "colder" day (-50 LOL...awesome!).
Honestly, yesterday, I was so toasty...I stood outside (yes, in my snow clothes) to stay cool. 😉 I got quite the workout going through the snow, so today I will enjoy yoga instead. Compared to last week this time, I am feeling MUCH better (and healthier) 😃 And without comparison today, I am feeling great ❤
Today I am fully grateful for much shorter commutes (by foot), a warm home and community to be in, and chicken soup on the go 😉

An intention for good builds a sustainable and ever-expanding cycle


 See this shape...the donut looking thing...that is called a torus. This shape helps to illustrate how I tend to see things in my life. I chose this picture mainly on illustration purposes (with the person at the center), but the idea is that it represents flow. Pick a topic... a thing, a concept, or, as my mind has been pondering on as of late, a circumstance...actually many circumstances...and about the intention of a nation....maybe, at some point in the now, the intention will be towards building up a country's greatest resource, it's people...maybe promoting health and education will be the top focus and budget spender...and maybe, instead of war and how to foster its fruits, a new fruitfulness will become the focus. Well folks, an intention for good builds a healthy "donut", and is a sustainable and ever-expanding cycle....however, unhealthy "donuts" or flows of intentions will show its fruit as well, in time...from the inside out, the non-beneficial intention will show its true form...


SO I say, as an individual, I'm going to start with my own intentions...have them flow and grow to the benefit of others....and just maybe, we see what GOOD fruits we can harvest.

Gratitude in full effect!

 Good morning! Happy new day of thanks! And Happy Thanksgiving to our US neighbours...

❤ And if I could stay home all cuddly warm today, wafted with the smells of baked goodies and some good home cooking while surrounded by my family's smiles, laughter, and love, then I would definitely be grateful 😉. SO today, I claim extra comfy casual dress for work ( I got immunity today!!! Hurray for dressing casual for charity 😉 ), super cute and fluffy comfy socks and tasty leftovers for lunch 😉 BOOM! Gratitude in full effect baby! 😛
Have amazing, warm, and heart-full day of thanks (and it works for tomorrow too 😉 )

FB Good morning post - November 26, 2014

 Good morning! This morning was a very peaceful morning to be in....I felt washed with it...it feels slow, intentional, soft, radiant, and constant...my thoughts hovered around a central theme and I moved through my commute with it.

Celebrating my glowing ray of sunshine

 Glowing ray of sunshine! It was a warm and sunny autumn day when God (and you) decided you would finally come into this world. On that day you were born , I was re-born into a new life

❤ Today I celebrate you and my heart-full appreciation of having you in our lives! Thank you for being you ❤

Life, love, and the enjoyment of the glory of it

 In times of peace and prosperity....when things seem quiet and comfortable...this is when we are to abound and enjoy in celebration, the beauty that is life! And for those that forgot to enjoy and are not into celebrating, your time has come as well,...as the call for justice and honouring, of that beauty called life, is among us and there is a stand that must be had...firmly, to honour and protect...life, love, and the enjoyment of the glory of it. Unity in Love in on your doorstep folks...open up and walk...

A celebration of life and love

 Good morning! If there was going to be a way that I would live out, day to day, my love and devotion....it would be as a celebration of life and love. To think about what gratitudes exist in me to share (what have I not remembered to say thank you for...), what evidence I see and remember Love abounding around and through me and in the lives of others (while remembering all the loving Words you spoke to me and promised I might see...), and how to truly share that celebration, inviting others to share in that Joy.

And when moments get hard, and I start to forget... gratitudes remain unpaid and unforwarded...forgetting the love and its depths...forgetting the joy in celebrating...that is when all I need to remember and cry, and miss the joy and tenderness and feel the longing for it once again...
This is The beautiful romance...and the times of forgetting are short...and it`s much more fulfilling to celebrate and smile in a thought of you, bringing you along in MY journey than to cuss, and kick, and be stuck in a place where I feel so far removed from life itself. And when it happens, grace and love are constant in picking me up and carrying me on...
"..and surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." ....and I too, love you always as well (more and more each day) ❤ ❤ ❤

New warm breakfast fave

We can receive when we are fully present with whatever moment we are in

 What is there to really say? Even as a lover of words and Word, I am just feeling lovingly washed in divine confidence to Be...and to love and enjoy those that come across my path...the man on the bus deciding to take an adventure...somewhere! Wherever the bus would take him....the woman who was more focused on where she was wanting to go than the fact that the bus driver needed to report that she slipped hard on the ice...the depth of experience we can receive when we are fully present with whatever moment we are in...simple...not a big movie production (or maybe it is)...but it is....

❤

FB Good morning post - November 19, 2014

 Good morning! Ugh! Productive start to the day....and even with a few bumps of someone not allowed to bring snowshoes in his backpack to school (there is not that much snow out there...) and the other getting interrupted from creative inspiration so he can head off to school...everything worked out...all in perfect timing.

Now to finish enjoying this amazing tea!!

Dealing with compassionate and thoughtful people

 Get a call from our mechanic...can I tell you, I am inspired by the heart of this man! And then I run into a couple...great conversation between the two of them...they are definitely having fun together....rolling with what life is for them at the moment, and honestly, I feel are a great example of optimistic people in this world...Dealing with compassionate and thoughtful people really helps to life me up each day...
