Each morning I exercise Yoga, followed by three daily meditation daily readers and then, I write – sometimes a poem, sometimes just a reflection or draw a bit in my journal. I listen to the waterfall outside of my window and give thanks for another day. In the evening, I practice Secrets of Natural Walking for a good night’s sleep and wake up refreshed and ready for another day.

It matters a great deal. If I can’t get in touch with gratitude – I’m lost. I’ve lost connection with God and my self. It is like a life ring. I am very grateful to be conscious of what’s around me and what I have or can do for others, what God has provided for me and for us. It’s up to me to notice it, name it and appreciate it, what or whom. xo

Lovely…thank you 💗

I’m waiting on lots of things right now. A new job. Healing from a prescribed medication. To stop and say Wow, I am grateful. I felt an inner shift toward lightness and joy.

I’ve been sick for weeks…tired, zero energy, frustrated with waiting. This is fragility. Resilience is knowing this too will pass and Faith in God will guide me to where I need to be. 💗

Creating something beautiful with photography, written words, a mixture of both as in a collage. Art! So does nature, a walk in the woods, a swim in the ocean, the smile of a child.

It’s a challenge. I am currently in a journey that involves pain, confusion, and much more. Every day at the end of the day, I am writing down 3 things I am grateful for. I am also recording what I did for myself today to take care of me. When I connect with God and God whispers, I know that I am not alone. For this – I am truly grateful and know that all is well. Have a blessed day!

See them. Smile at them. Share laughter with them.

By listening. Hugging. Smiling. Praying.

My stories are old and repetitive. Full of angst, pain, suffering with moments of laughter and joy., and woven in between all of these emotions and memories – Faith like the wind was always present. Grateful for the wind, the breath, the Whisper.

The emptiness of not knowing…. the unknown….

So true Sheila 💗 this is a big gift to you and the world 🙏💗

Dusty, I, too will turn 60 this year and initially have been excited about this, and hope to return to this place. Happy 60th!

Thank you Antoinette 🙏💗

Smiling to you Serafina 🙂

It worked for me Tom – I smiled back 🙂

I loved pen pals – what a gift to those who can’t get out into the world – the outdoors. I could only hope that someone would reach out to me Eileen. What a gift.

May your friends grow 💌

Sending love Nina.

I have three meditation books I read daily – and the index is the same for me as pinterest is for you Michele – I determine the emotion I’m feeling – look it up and read the pages that correspond to the feeling. Thank you for the Pinterest reminder though! I have a board of quotes!
