An attitude of gratitude transforms my negative minds into a brighter picture of whatever I’m looking at. But I’m not sure if it’s ways a true picture- I mean how do I really know ?

On the North Shore of Oahu in a park called sacred Falls. Behind the Falls there is a spot where I used to sit all the time and watch the waterfall and all of the beautiful nature on the outside. Under falls the water kept me safe and sound was so peaceful.

Meditation is something I have done for years on my own. Trying to learn the right way to do it. Now that I meditate with a group, the energy is a gift . I meditate with many people and it is a blessing. The world is a beautiful place and praying/meditating together is coexistence.

I use to have to practice gratitude, I’m other words sort of force myself to look for things to be grateful for. Now gratitude comes naturally. It’s really lovely to have gratitude come from my heart. So I guess I practice gratitude by how I show up in life. I show up with my heart open and I let go of the past and future as much as possible. Using awareness helps me stay open hearted. Open heartedness is a key to gratitude in everyday life .

Let go of the ideas about conflict. We don’t always know if things will be good or bad for us in the long run.
Letting go of myself who has conflict is a great idea, because then space opens up and allows for resolution to arrive.

The universe knows all so I would not presume to know anything. Today and each day I do my best to be kind and let go. Trust the universe and natures flow. Only the truth knows truth. My job is let go of falseness so become one with truth.
These are the steps I take each day .

Just live today and do your best today . Just live one hour and do your best. Let go and trusting the universe.

Beautiful 🤩

Generosity does bring joy, but not when we walk around feeling like we lack or are missing something. I believe you’re right. Being of service is important, but maybe we could let go of even thinking that it’s service? Maybe it’s us all caring for one another that’s where it’s at. We are all one and we serve one another.

Carol, giving your time and truly hearing someone is a generous gift .
