Food For Thought: A Flower Bud

Peony Buds
Peony Buds

Treat this day as though it is a flower bud, opening and unfurling its petals as the moments of the day pass on. Each moment, each petal unfurling, is an opportunity for growth and change. We can blossom in our lives as flower bud changes from a tight, young bud to wide open flower, rich and heady with pollen to germinate the seeds of life elsewhere.

We are the cycle of life, as is the flower bud. We gain nothing if we remain tight and closed, a bud unwilling to open. We must look towards each day and unfurl our lives with happiness, gratitude and inspiration to be the most glorious flower we can be. That is living in the moment.

Quote of the Day: Pema Chodron

The honesty of precision and the goodheartedness of gentleness are qualities of making friends with yourself… As you work with being really faithful to the technique and being as precise as you can and simultaneously as kind as you can, the ability to let go seems to happen to you. The discovery of your ability to let go spontaneously arises; you don’t force it. You shouldn’t be forcing accuracy or gentleness either, but while you could make a project out of accuracy, you could make a project out of gentleness, it’s hard to make a project out of letting go. – Pema Chodron

Daily Affirmations: My Life Is Like A Garden

secret gardenToday, I re-mind myself that my life is like a garden. If I want to blossom and thrive in the sun, I must carefully cultivate the aspects of my life that need tending. The garden left untended becomes unwieldy and overgrown with weeds. The life goals left untended so too, will be encompassed by weeds that overcome goals, and soon the goals will be unrecognizable. I tend carefully my goals, for they are the flowers of my life.

Namaste… Pamela

Daily Affirmations: Passion

Today, I re-mind myself that passion is the fertilizer for the inspiration that fuels my life and my work. I look to nature, I look to life itself to find the connections that fuel my passion into something tangible. I affirm today and everyday that my passion is my strength and my gift, that colors my work and my world.

Daily Affirmations: Happiness

double orange lilies Happiness is not a gift but a choice. I affirm each day… In order to be happy, I must choose to be happy, everyday. It is not a gift, and I must work at achieving my happiness. I alone can make myself happy. It starts with a choice, and a re-programing of my thought process.

Namaste… Pamela
