For your consideration….
There are two parts to today’s message. Each of them is short but vitally important.
First, as we have heard so many times, each moment of each day is new. Anything that has happened in the past is irrelevant unless we make it so. This is important to remember if we want the moment we are in to be all it can be and if we want to live the truth of our authentic self.
Secondly, we are reminded that judgment of all kinds taints the moment robbing it of being all it can be. When we carry judgment forward we bury our authentic self in the “ifs and buts” instead of the “I cans and I wills.”
We are asked to live our authentic self…our truth. We are asked to live that truth fully in each moment doing and saying what we know is right.
But what if we don’t? What if we don’t speak up or take action? We try to get it right in the next, again without judgment. We do not let judgment attach itself to us. We do not let it paralyze us. We do not let it move forward with us. We do not let it maim or color our authentic self.
That is the HOPE. And so it is.
Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take….
-Meditate/pray…ask…”What is my next step for my highest good and the highest good of all?”
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
-Be still and listen to your authentic self.
What made me smile yesterday…..
-I had two great classes. Great second graders in the morning and great 5th graders in the afternoon.
-Another mild day. There wasn’t much sun but it was still comfortable outside.
-Bob’s pastie pie.
-Ahhh, after almost 7 weeks we have a new working dishwasher.
Love, Blessings and Gratitude,
