Grateful... reflections





HAPPY FRIDAY, may it be filled with beauty, passion, wonder, sun filled warmth!
 

As I reflect this morning,waiting on Ben the pool man to dive into the water and find the "leak"...
I wonder:

Did you get enough yesterday?
Did you give out any
or
did you give plenty of YOU
to the Universe?
Did you take time for you
 to just
 BE
just celebrate the wonder of the world as you are
central to it?
Did you
rejoice with great gladness and gratitude the
many and varied gifts you have been
BLESSED with in your life

NO not your sorrows, not your troubles, not what
could have been, should have been, would have been.
RATHER
What has been, what was, and is
because
YOU are
and have been
and all the wonder that lies
within
the Universal oneness that connects you
to the God/dess,
within
YOU
that makes you as unique
as your thumbprint, your tongue print,
the very essence of
spirit within
YOU

So let me ask you once again:
DID YOU GET ENOUGH
DID YOU GIVE ENOUGH WITHOUT ASKING FOR ANYTHING OR EXPECTING ANYTHING IN RETURN
<>
DID YOU STOP
LONG ENOUGH TO SAY
"THANK YOU"
<>
This is another chance if you are reading this today!

Let go of those "goofs", "the regret", "the mistakes"
that are now but a dimmed memory, or an "inflated" memory of what you might have done differently.
Step roll, dance into the moment of this day
the glory of
YOU
and the infinite possibility of the wonder
and what you can do with intention
along with making the
CHOICE
of how you want your day to
look, be, and go about
making it the way
YOU
want it to be!

Outshine the sun today; step out of your comfort zone, extend a kindness with a smile, a hello, surprise someone and smile til' your face hurts you
when in line at a drive through, purchase a coffee/coke for the person behind you
just because
YOU can
Take five minutes and find somewhere to
sit with your back against a tree or view something remarkable
Absorb some of that energy
and say thank you
to that tree
FEEL THE SHIFT
WITHIN
and
go forth with light
warpaint on and
STOMP
into this day with gladness
YOU are
a
WINNER


I'm ready for my 2nd cup of coffee,
as I sit here in the morning light, I am reflecting...

did you get enough yesterday?
I wish you enough today.
You know:
people don't know what they don't know...
and then
after they have walked a path... usually a long sometimes wonderful sometimes difficult path,
who they are is not who they have been
and they hope against hope they never walk that path again.
BUT
if they are ever called to walk it
they will be so much more prepared,
they will have so many more instruments
well tuned and ready
they will sound like the
philharmonic
as they journey down that path again.
WE are always learning, always reaching, always
reflecting
Regret is just lines on and in our brows
> STOMP <

Wherever you are along the path,
Whatever you are doing,
Take Time for YOU
and
Time for great gratitude
in All that YOU do

Walk In Beauty,
DRSES

The fire is burning brightly with HOPE and thoughts on the wind to all we have in the prayer bowl, and all who gather here... The embers are hot
