Daily Affirmations: Open Heart

March 25, 2015

snowy owl

Today, I re-mind myself that an open heart that is sincere and compassionate fuels my own confidence and self-esteem as well as giving comfort and solace to others. I acknowledge that my open heart may be vulnerable to grief and sadness as well as happiness and joy, however all relationships bring teachings that we may learn from them. All relationships are assignments… There is something we must learn, something we must give, something we must receive in those assignments. This is all part of the lesson.

Namaste… Pamela

Quote of the Day: Thích Nhất Hạnh

March 22, 2015

The heart and soul of an empath is easily hurt by the pain of others with whom they feel a connection. This is a valuable reminder from Thích Nhất Hạnh…

suffering

The other part of this, in my opinion, is that person who makes you suffer has to be willing to see their “suffering is spilling over” and the fact that they “need help.”

Until the suffering being, who takes out their pain on others, is willing to own their suffering and get help, they will keep hurting people. We are helpless but to offer them prayers and compassion, while we shield our hearts.

Namaste… Pamela

I am grateful for my family and friends who are actively a part of my rich and wonderful life, those who lift me up when I am down and applaud me when I am up. Abundance comes in many forms, I take care to recognize the abundance in my life that is not monetary, but rich in love and the substance of caring and compassion. In this I know, I am abundant.

Namaste… Pamela

Daily Affirmations: Make A Difference

December 5, 2014

immature red tailThe question for me daily, is how can I make a difference in the world? With keen eyes and a listening ear, as I strive to understand the problems of world, I affirm each day, that every voice for social justice matters. Every heart filled with compassion matters. Every soul exuding empathy matters. I can not solve the problems of the world, but I know that in my own way, I contribute each day to making a difference.

Daily Affirmations: Open Heart and Mind

November 7, 2014

We are all flowers blossoming in our own unique ways and we make choices each day about how we show up to those around us and the world. Today, I choose to show up as a radiant flower, in full blossom, with an open heart and an open mind, expressing compassion and acceptance towards each person whom I meet. I recognize that the petals of a flower are symbolic of the open heart and mind which I possess and cultivate each day as one cultivates a garden of flowers.

Namaste… Pamela
