Mary Pat3 months agoMary PatI was so busy I didn’t have time to answer yesterday, so am trying to catch up…I lived a YES on Saturday by walking our dog, making a really good dinner for my husband and myself, and listening with love to others. 3 Reply Malag3 months agoMalagYes, it’s OK to say “no” 4 Reply Mary Pat3 months agoMary PatYes it is! Good for you. 2 Reply Ose3 months agoOseCalling a friend and we met in heart for a moment💕 🙏, feeding the birds during this cold day; listening to the silence and sensing some of stillness. 5 Reply mam_gigi3 months agomam_gigiToday, I made waffles for breakfast instead just the same old cereal. I ordered in my favorite food from a restaurant. I got off the computer and played with my nephews. So feel I like I seized the moment in a lot of little ways. 4 Reply Don Jones3 months agoDon JonesDon doesn't create his own reality, Don is a picture. Don is a picture in a mirror. He’s kind of thin! He is an appearance. He is a phenomenon - around which what you call the ego constellates. His self-image grows up around that picture. But when I say I create my own reality and really mean this, I say Who I really, really am creates reality. Who you really, really are is responsible for the whole show.

But when I say I create my own reality and really mean this, I say Who I really, really am creates reality. Who you really, really are is responsible for the whole show. So it’s a question of which “you” you are referring to. I don’t think that the chap in the mirror, namely little Don, can create anything. He’s a picture. He’s thin. He’s also intangible: you can’t touch him. I’ve identified with that picture: taken that picture and put it here, and its wrong. It doesn’t belong here, it belongs there. Don is not responsible for anything like creation, or for anything, because he is not conscious. The consciousness in me and in you is the One Consciousness who creates all reality, and is responsible for all reality. Focusing on the consciousness in me is the YES.

Calmly & peacefully doing my thing (but) when I’ve found myself rushing/getting worked up for no good reason at all…..slowing it down so I enjoy myself & the task at hand. 3 Reply Marnie Jackson3 months agoMarnie JacksonI am going to present all of my ideas – and let others be the “no” 2 Reply Mica3 months agoMicaby putting extra coffee in my cup to cheer me up?? by being on this site, for sure!🥰😘And by opening the blinds early enough to see pink sky from the sunrise! 🙂 AND I’m so grateful to my son for recommending the stacked Fisher and Paykel dishwashers I have – imagine letting 11 yrs of foody garbage accumulate in its nether regions, and even then its only symptom was excessive noise – and the internet led me quickly to the solution on its website. So happy to be a grateful mom 👩👧 3 Reply Barb C3 months agoBarb CFor one thing, I’m donating blood this afternoon. 7 Reply Serafina3 months agoSerafinaThis anemic thanks you so very much!

I’m nurturing an aging cat with love. I’m enjoying the cardinals, sparrows, juncos, downy woodpeckers, blue jays, grackles, and nuthatches that have discovered the feeders and suet in the heavy snowscape. I’m enjoying my family, my book, and my project with consciousness. I am treating this day and this moment like it will never be here again, and enjoying the richness of it. 7 Reply Jules B3 months agoJules BDeep breaths (a superpower), stretch (another superpower), stimulated my mind and now about to walk my dog 🐕 5 Reply Nelson3 months agoNelsonI’m finally caught up with work and can close my laptop today. My partner has the day off. I’m looking forward to an overdue date night. Also, my sister and my nieces are free for lunch. I’m gonna hang out with them. I can’t wait. 7 Reply Michele3 months agoMicheleI deleted Uber Eats, Door Dash, and Grubhub apps off my phone! 7 Reply Holly in Ohio3 months agoHolly in Ohiohahaha… congratulations! 😄 3 Reply devy3 months agodevyWelcoming the day with gratitude and love. Doing my daily meditation, prayer then looking at gratitude.org sets my mindset for the day. A mindset of positivity and looming forward to a beautiful sunny day, cold yet welcoming. It’s great to experience life. I can handle any negativity that threatens my attitude or emotion. 7 Reply Lee Anne3 months agoLee AnneI woke at 4 a.m. to a still, frozen morning. Yesterday’s ice storm left tree branches, limbs, and brush on the forest floor gently burdened with thin layers of ice. The landscape glitters as dawn makes her entrance. I sit with my mug of Assam tea and speak silent, grateful words to God. Giving thanks to Abba Father, I light my incense and kneel on an old Tibetan prayer rug in front of my altar. I invite the Tibetan singing bowl to send out its universal sound along with my heart. The day is un...I woke at 4 a.m. to a still, frozen morning. Yesterday’s ice storm left tree branches, limbs, and brush on the forest floor gently burdened with thin layers of ice. The landscape glitters as dawn makes her entrance. I sit with my mug of Assam tea and speak silent, grateful words to God. Giving thanks to Abba Father, I light my incense and kneel on an old Tibetan prayer rug in front of my altar. I invite the Tibetan singing bowl to send out its universal sound along with my heart. The day is unplanned. I may create. I may cook. I may do tasks in my home. Or, I may do nothing but watch the changing light through ice trees: Clouds and sun doing a ballet, a pas de deux in the heavens. This is not, not doing anything. It is assuredly doing something: Saying YES to the moments of impermanence, which is life. 💜🌺 Read More11 Reply pkr3 months agopkrLee Anne, thank you. Your response to today’s question is absolutely beautiful. Your words have touched me deeply. Enjoy your day.🙏❤️ 2 Reply Lee Anne3 months agoLee Anne💞🌈 2 Reply Patricia3 months agoPatriciaUp early with our old dog. Coffee. Gratitude. My life’s companion nearby. Planning to create. Planning to cook. Drying seeds to save for the spring. Waiting for the sun and then the snow. 6 Reply EJP3 months agoEJPDeep breath, head up, shoulders back…..move forward into the day with no fears, no regrets, no looking back….just pure gratitude for this new day filled with endless opportunities and possibilities. 4 Reply sunnypatti3 months agosunnypattiWaking up to this new day with gratitude for being alive is my first way of living a YES to life. I’ll carry on through the work day and evening, sharing my light as I go. I love this life and hope I always give it the best YES that I can! 4 Reply Christine3 months agoChristineIn the morning I get up between 5 and 6, have a cup of coffee and then I step outside for a gentle walk in the fresh air. There are no petrol fumes yet, I hear the birds chirping, sometimes an owl when I walk along the edge of the forest. It’s a huge YES moment every day. 10 Reply Kevin3 months agoKevinI Got up came downstairs made some coffee sat and spoke with God tied up my walking boots turned the knob to greet this day. 5 Reply Christine3 months agoChristineGood morning, Brother.
