Gratefulness
Life has inspired me today. The energy to cultivate a mind that is calm and compassionate as well as having the enthusiasm to do so is joyous. I’m grateful for having this precious opportunity of a human life to cultivate a mind of love and truth. I pray that we all do our best to weed out disillusionment and grow more of what we want to see like ethical conduct and compassion- true compassion- nonviolence . Peace and love is inspiration. Have a lovely Sunday.
I am grateful for transformation. I’m grateful for change and how nothing is permanent. Impermanence opens the space of opportunity.
I have been holding on to that I am. It sick. I want so much to be out working and living a healthy life free from pain but I keep falling back into migraine attacks. I guess I have to let go of forcing myself to wish I had some sort of an identity that I don’t have. If this makes any sense?
I’m grateful for having help with this fifth day of migraines. I’m having trouble staying afloat.
I have been fortunate enough to have a good education which I have put towards teaching middle school students for over 20 years. I’m now learning where I can be of service in different ways. Due to chronic migraines I have had to stop working full time and so I’m looking for how to be of service in a new way. I have been volunteer teaching yoga- mindfulness movements and meditation. And I’m still trying to find more places to be of use. I do my best to be a good mother to m...

And I’m still trying to find more places to be of use. I do my best to be a good mother to my three boys and one puppy.
Gratefulness would be open to the present moment cultivating joyous efforts.
Regret is a good thing because we learn from our regrets. Guilt on the other hand is a useless emotion which leaves us unhappy. If I make a mistake and I regret it and learn my lesson it’s a good thing. I’m not perfect so it’s not possible to pretend that anyone could live without making any mistakes. I believe what would help or aid to living a regret free life is to make sure to have ethical conduct be an important aspect of life. Also starting each day with an intention ...
Regret is a good thing because we learn from our regrets. Guilt on the other hand is a useless emotion which leaves us unhappy. If I make a mistake and I regret it and learn my lesson it’s a good thing. I’m not perfect so it’s not possible to pretend that anyone could live without making any mistakes. I believe what would help or aid to living a regret free life is to make sure to have ethical conduct be an important aspect of life. Also starting each day with an intention to not harm anyone and to do my best to be of use to all beings. These are a few ideas that make a big difference in living regret free.
We can’t have dark without light. Dark and light lean on each other to exist. We can’t have only happiness and not have any challenges. All of the challenges I’ve had have taught me something to be grateful for.
Expectations are very tricky. Expectations trigger many different kinds of emotions in us. Like the thought of the day reminds us: “change the story and change perception, change perception and you change the world. “ Our habitual habits of rumination are the story that needs to be looked at. I choose to meet this day with an open heart knowing that I will do my best in each moment no matter what the outcome may be. So again to remind myself because I do have tr...
Expectations are very tricky. Expectations trigger many different kinds of emotions in us. Like the thought of the day reminds us: “change the story and change perception, change perception and you change the world. “ Our habitual habits of rumination are the story that needs to be looked at. I choose to meet this day with an open heart knowing that I will do my best in each moment no matter what the outcome may be. So again to remind myself because I do have triggers which spin off into habitual rumination just like anybody else does – I’m a human being not a human doing. It’s not what I do but how I do it.
I cherish life’s journey by nurturing joy. I cherish life’s journey by giving of myself as much as I can compassion and loving kindness. I love the quote by Victor Frankel. His books are wonderful and filled with powerful tools to see that our minds can be a prison. Like brother David teaches, we have the power within us to stop, look and go. We cherish life by responding to any situation with kindness.
I’m not a human doing but a human being. It’s not about what we do but how we do it. My aspirations are to be core peace-radiate loving kindness and compassion for myself and all sentient beings. Sending out joyful love to you all.
I can be more open to life’s moments when I let go grasping and craving. When I can allow with grace whatever shows up I can be more available to life.
Hi Journey. I’m sorry about your health issues. I think many people have them. I am dealing with chronic migraines. Have you seen the Netflix movie Heal?
Thank you Anneclair. How wonderful to be embraced in love .
Beautiful!
I agree it is easy to find what we don’t have and it’s good to point that out. We can always feel sorry for ourselves but that isn’t useful or necessary.
Very good way to put it! Our actions have consequences! So true!
I love it! I got up today ! And yes indeed that is something to cherish couldn’t agree more Kevin.
Tom, Yes to being open and present to life!
Thank you for your beautiful reflection today. Like brother David teaches us- stop- look- and go. What a beautiful practice., full of peace and joy.
