For your consideration…
Happy Valentines Day, the day we celebrate love. Yes, I know it is about showing others our love for them. But today is about self love.
Part of all flight instructions is to put on your own oxygen mask before helping your children or others. This is often against our natural instinct. Yet it is correct. We must take care of ourselves so that we can help others.
So too it is with love. We can not have healthy, equal, successful, caring, nurturing, loving relationships until we love ourselves that same way first. We must be the love that we expect to come back to us.
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.”
-Remember…You are the keeper of the light. Wherever you go, there can be no darkness.
-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.
-Love yourself as you would have other love you.
What made me smile yesterday…
-A beautiful snow day.
-Lunch with Francesca and Susan.
-Shopping at Cantoro’s…always good stuff.
-Catching up with Mary and Alex.
-A new book.
Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
Rev. Chris
