For your consideration…
First, I HOPE that each one of you had a blessed and happy Thanksgiving.
Votaire wrote, “Paradise on Earth is where I am.” While I admit that I am very curious, we won’t take a vote on how many of us feel this way. The focus being on feeling.
Many of us can identify a place that to us is paradise on earth, maybe even several. But paradise is more than a place. Paradise is our attitudes and feelings. To truly experience paradise on earth, our body, mind and spirit must be in sync.
I once had a meditation I listened to. The coach led the listener to walk into the outdoors, walk through a field, and continue until we found our peaceful place of beauty and serenity and joy. Until today’s message, I had not remembered this meditation but am going to do it again in the next couple of days. We are encouraged to search for and find our define what our paradise on earth. looks and feels like. Paradise is not without problems but it is where our attitude is that we can together conquer them and move on.
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 your 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.
-Define your paradise.
What made me smile yesterday…
-A beautiful day.
-Our family get together was full of love and joy.
-Of course, our dinner was fabulous. Many hands make hard work light.
-A good book.
Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
