Gratefulness
I may share listening deeply and caring, and prayer sent silently into the world.
For the world, as so many here, it is peace, and enough food and water for the starving and the thirsty fellow people. And may the pandemic subside. For myself I hope and will be grateful for whatever I may contribute of which might serve the community and friends and loved ones. And , if I may add, in order be able to really support peace and contribute to stop hurting, to overcome my fatal reactions to the fear of being left out.
How to express it? I clearly felt it is Gottesliebe, God love motivating me. And I am afraid.
Living with one another lovingly and peacefully. Being of support for people in need, allowing to be vulnerable and kindness I hope to have offered today and every day as a contribution to help thriving awareness and so helping leading to love and peace.
To be kindly made attentive on some unreflected expression which could have hurt someone, not intended at all but nevertheless… and I apologize to the ones concerned. I highly appreciate and am deeply grateful to be with you here and to be part of all. It is a great gift, any of your posts and replies I feel is kind sharing, which inspires not only me, but anyone who visits here to be part of the whole, to think deeply and be grateful.
First curiosity needs to be addressed in me, I found out through this question, so thank you dearly for this one, dear Gratefulness-team. Currently, curiosity invites me to follow the ways where stillness is present in our lives and how perception of silence or loneliness might be transformed into perception of stillness.

First curiosity needs to be addressed in me, I found out through this question, so thank you dearly for this one, dear Gratefulness-team. Currently, curiosity invites me to follow the ways where stillness is present in our lives and how perception of silence or loneliness might be transformed into perception of stillness. When I spoke to a woman I met yesterday, she was kind and open to mention that she currently feels desperately lonely, aggravated a lot due to the current Covid conditions, which also made visible that some of her friends would not really be friends and not much of them are left. She lives alone while suffering anxiety due to former cancer. I told her that these days, I often would be sad, too, feeling lonely also or would cry, as all distractions, excitement or regular meetings where usually I would have met people or friends have been stopped. Then suddenly stillness was present, and from this some peace, some knowing that she and me, too, we are not alone in this arose, and that many people really are suffering deeply due to the isolation and all the heavy side effects of the pandemic. It was a precious, warm and soothing experience arising from stillness, leaving us grateful for this unexpected moment of shared peace.
Writing in the morning about what for I am grateful, exercise to sense it, allow it to rise; especially on days like this one where for several hours, all other but gratitude swirls around in me, then listening compassionately to the ones I encounter opens the door to gratefulness again; to read and to reply here on this site; When I rant like a Reed Sparrow like today, taking a moment, may be talking to a friend and opening my heart again is balm and gratefulness just flows in again.
As the colorful, touching, heartwarming bridge to you and you and to the heart of all that is.🙏
cooking for my friends is one of the joyful offers, almost done for dinner; feeding the birds outside and helping them to generate some warmth during freezing cold temperatures outside; through speaking with a student and hopefully being of service for his bachelor thesis on a substantial theme we both are interested in and so possibly fostering an opening to new ways of therapy in the medical field, a tiny small step in the direction of new possibilities for the deepening of healing, and, wh...
cooking for my friends is one of the joyful offers, almost done for dinner; feeding the birds outside and helping them to generate some warmth during freezing cold temperatures outside; through speaking with a student and hopefully being of service for his bachelor thesis on a substantial theme we both are interested in and so possibly fostering an opening to new ways of therapy in the medical field, a tiny small step in the direction of new possibilities for the deepening of healing, and, who knows, beyond.
When touching something, touching it caressingly, when feeling or sensing, allow tenderness, and when thinking, being kind also. Any encounter can be a tender moment! Thank you for this beautiful question, dear Gratefulness-team.
That I am loved, no matter what, and that I respond to this humbling gift with gratitude, kindness, and love to His Grace.
This moment.🙏
Usually to everyone in need whom I encounter and in every way possible and best when in tune with His will. To my experience, when sometimes being able to listen to the stillness underlying everything and to listen to His will with an open heart, the best way of supporting another appears when considering the one and the whole. if it is meant to be, even the Grace of healing may arise, this gift of sorts and deeply humbling experience, filling each one concerned with deep gratitude.
Thank you, dear Helly. I can only second your reply.
Beautiful, thank you!
