For your consideration……

“It is the constants in our lives that carry the weight and really matter.” Today is just a reminder for us to consider them.

We all look for the next big event or dream to happen in our lives. Indeed, we often are counting down the days for vacation, holidays, graduations, weddings. Or we are working hard for that promotion, new house, car etc.

But today we are reminded that it is the constants in our lives that make the big things possible. It is the job we have now. It is where we live now. It is the people in our lives. It is Mother Nature. It is in all of those things surrounding and supporting us that make the big things possible.

The “humm drummm” of our life is in fact the steady beat that offers all of the promise. The sun rising each morning. The hug of a friend or family member, that cup of coffee each morning, that pet that greets you at the door, the home and car you already have etc. are all right here for us in this moment. Those constants we take for granted are the real blessings we have each and every day of our lives. Often we don’t realize it until we lose them. So today we are being reminded to consider the constants in our lives and be grateful. That is the HOPE.

 

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

-Meditate….focus on the blessings you already have.

-Drink lots of water.

-Get outdoors and spend as much time as you can. Take in at least 10 deep breaths.

-Write down all those things in your life you are grateful for. Keep it close and refer to it when you need support

 

What made me smile yesterday…..

-Another sunny and warm day.

-Cathy and I had the opportunity for another great chat.

-No news from my girls. I am going to assume that is good news.

-I finished another good book.

-An ultimate “chill” day.

 

Love, Blessings and Gratitude,

Chris
