Gratefulness
Today I was still and listened at the doctors office. The nurse had a challenging time taking blood from me and after the third time she asked if she could get a different person to help out. I was patient and still. I said no problem and she was grateful for my patience. It’s so nice to have people who help us and are in working hard everyday to serve. I’m grateful to all the people who everyones welfare depend on.
Be there and say I care .
I could receive more easily by letting go of worrying and just trust. Enjoy life more by not making much todo and just relaxing in the flow.
What impedes me sometimes are chronic migraines and how I might work through that would be to do my best at pay attention to triggers.
Weeds are beautiful too!
I value virtuous thoughts, actions and intentions. I believe everyone benefits from ethical conduct and wholesome deeds. I value loving kindness and compassion wrapped in gratitude.
Breathing freely and easily is a simple joy and it is fundamentally essential. The joy of the breath is my anchor to life blossoming in the present moment the only place where we are truly alive to experience life.
My breathing makes me know remember I’m alive and being alive is miracle !
Sometimes a few steps forward can also come with a few steps backwards. I need to speak more kindly to myself and show myself more compassion. Right now I’m learning that at this moment I have a lot of fear and loneliness present. I feel like I have studies hard and meditated but the fear and loneliness just doesn’t seem to go away. I feel ashamed of sharing this because it makes me sound like I’m feeling sorry for myself. I’m grateful for my family and friend...
Sometimes a few steps forward can also come with a few steps backwards. I need to speak more kindly to myself and show myself more compassion. Right now I’m learning that at this moment I have a lot of fear and loneliness present. I feel like I have studies hard and meditated but the fear and loneliness just doesn’t seem to go away. I feel ashamed of sharing this because it makes me sound like I’m feeling sorry for myself. I’m grateful for my family and friends. I’m grateful and fortunate in so many ways. So why do these feelings show up ? Thay teaches us to question ourselves by asking are you sure ? And what are you doing ? This is the mind of rumination. So to question these feelings and see they are real but are not true is useful. Opening up my heart right here right now feels so scary. The pain for the migraine I’m experiencing is challenging me and my awareness. Pain is always teaching me something new . How to be with the pain in the moment and not let it overwhelm me? Just by breathing and allowing and letting go. Over and over again with loving awareness.
Breathing 3 cycles of breath into the belly makes me feel rejuvenated. Also drinking a large glass of water helps me feel rejuvenated.
I can be thank others and see their good qualities when I am coming from an open heart and not from a clinging needy way. Others do not make our happiness. They are a condition for our happiness but they are not in charge of making us happy. So my default is gratefulness. I’m grateful for all the kindness of others.
🙏 Wonderful Kevin .
I feel exactly the same way KC !
Hi Kevin. The world is a better place with you in it . You are supporting many and that’s wonderful and inspirational.
Thank you so much Kevin . Each day I am trying and I appreciate this safe space and your help and caring words.
Really good advice! I need to hear this too! Thank you!
Brave of you and kind of you to be open. This is the start of healing for us all. Thank you . Bless you .
Thank you for that . I need to say the same thing. Hugs to you .
Hi Mike , I really appreciate the clear understanding you have. It’s so true when we are grounded in ourselves we are not needy and wanting to praise others to get something from them rather we see each person for their good qualities.
Thank you Kevin I appreciate you prayers and thoughts . ♥️
