For your consideration…

So which Labor Day button do you push? I am going to make the most of this vaca day or I have a lot to do before I start the work week tomorrow? What are our expectations going into the weekend? How do we react if they are not met or plans have to change?

Our personality, culture, upbringing, life, etc. have created “buttons” that when pushed, we react. It is an automatic response that we are often not aware of. When we are aware, we can change our reactions. That is a given. We have power and control should we choose to use it.

But we are reminded that no matter what, we can never push all the right “buttons.” Life, Karma, our Guidance, etc. have control of some of the buttons. So what do we do? We do the exact same thing as if we choose to push them. We take control. We choose our reaction. Consider it a bit like playing the lottery, choose to be excited and go with it.

That is the HOPE. And so it is.

 

Bit by bit, piece by piece, HOPE by HOPE action steps anyone can take…

-Affirm…“I am loved.”

-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.

-Make the most of whatever buttons get pushed.

 

What made me smile yesterday…

-A chill day.

-Jody and I went to the show to see “Where the Crawdads Sing.” I have not read the book. The movie was great.

-Leftovers and freshly baked cookies.

-A good book.

 

Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,

Rev. Chris
