Today, I re-mind myself that I am, and only I, the true source of my happiness. Today and everyday, I choose to be happy and I make joy my way of life. I wake each day with the promise of sunshine even if the skies are gray, for I am the true source of my happiness. – Pamela J. Leavey
“Today, I honor the place in myself that knows exactly who I am. I allow myself to be filled with a warm sense of comfort and strength by honoring all that I am. I thank the Spirit that moves through me filling my heart, mind and soul with purpose and direction. I thank the Spirit that moves through me for bringing my endeavors and creations into fruition. I go forth on this day and every day, knowing that I will do my best, in all that I do.” – Pamela J. Leavey
Today I re-mind myself that the journey through life is filled with change. Like the blades of grasses on the Salt Marsh, there is a season for every change we weather. Some seasons may be harsher than others, but still we can stand strong throughout them all, when we take time for ourselves. If I feel worn and faded, I know that I can renew myself through rest, for I recognize that change is easier to handle when I am centered. If only for a few moments or an hour, today I take time for myself to be still and find my center.
In the golden reflection of the sun, we are infused with the light of love and abundance. Today, I re-mind myself that my life is rich and filled with so many blessings. I thank the Universe for those blessings. I give space to gratitude and light in my life.
Sometimes the bittersweet aspects of life appear more bitter than sweet. In these times, I re-mind myself that sadness and grief are pieces of the puzzle of life which each of us must work through at various times in our lives. There are lessons to be learned from sadness and grief. To deny these feelings, to cast them aside, rather than work through them, we do ourselves a disservice, for buried sadness and grief will rise and rise again, until we take the time to allow ourselves to feel these natural feelings and honor their meaning in our lives. Today, I acknowledge the sadness in my heart and I let the bittersweet weave into my life until its time is through.
“I am compassionate toward myself about my own vulnerability. I am tender toward myself in all difficult and challenging times. I accept that I have human limits and human emotions, which I honor and attend to. I allow the Universe to comfort me as I open my eyes and heart to difficult realities.” – Julia Cameron: Heart Steps
