For your consideration…
Yikes, I feel like a fraud writing this today. I don’t think I have not ever not written this blog 3 days in a row. In my defense, I feel like it was like a forced vacation. I was in away but like always, I took a computer. I switched out the one I was taking at the last minute. When I went to use it, the battery was dead and I had not put the charger in the bag. I had no access to a computer after that until this evening. Lesson learned, even if you know you always put things away in the same place, double-check. I had left the charger plugged in the family room. I feel like I don’t deserve today’s message.
It is exactly this, “Give yourself a pat on the back.” Every day, find something to recognize and celebrate yourself for, and give yourself a pat on the back. For every negative, find a positive.
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?”
-Pat yourself on the back for following through.
-Drink lots of water.
-Get outdoors and take in at least 10 deep breaths.
What made me smile for the last few days.
-Beautiful weather in California.
-Lots of family time celebrating Cathy’s birthday.
-Shannon went with me and it was good for her to be with her cousins.
-She has been searching her ancestry trying to find a birth certificate for her Irish grandparents to possibly apply for duel citizenship. She had already done a lot of work. Talking with family and working together to verify some of the relatives she had, she is there at least with her grandfather.
-We ate at the amazing Paradise Cove restaurant in Malibu and stopped at the fun Stagecoach in Calabasas.
-Yesterday we ate the one of my favorite chefs, Brooke Williamson’s, Playa Provisions in Playa Del Rey, CA. It was amazing.
Love, Blessings, and Gratitude,
