Daily Affirmations: One Goal At A Time

March 12, 2015

sea star sandy pointSome days I get ahead of myself, thinking of all the things I need to get done in the future. I worry myself in procrastination mode, instead of attacking one goal at a time. When I see this behavior rising up and taking over my day, I know it is time to shift direction and get back on task.

I re-mind myself that I am only human, I can only accomplish so much in a day. I stop, take a deep breath, organize the priorities of my goals and then seek to accomplish each goal, one goal at a time. It will get done. I affirm to myself that I can do it. One step, one goal at a time.

Namaste… Pamela

Snowy Owls Are Back At the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge

December 3, 2014

I haven’t had the pleasure of seeing my first Snowy Owl the year yet this season, but starting next week when I am finished with my Fall 2014 classes at UMass Amherst’s UWW, I’ll be heading to the Refuge in search of these majestic beauties. Nothing spells rest and relaxation for me more than time outdoors in every season, enjoying the diverse wildlife at my beloved Refuge.

The photo above was taken at the Newbury Salt Marsh, just outside of the Parker River National Wildlife Refuge, in December 2013. (more…)

Daily Affirmations: Song of Life

November 21, 2013

“The song of life is infinite and variable. Its melodies and harmonies hold infinite possibilities. I am both the listener and the song. I am both the composer and the note. A creator myself, I am also the the creation of a larger hand. In the great symphony of life, I am both large and small. I welcome this paradox. I allow myself to feel the protective guidance of a greater whole even as I allow myself to feel the power of my own largeness and strength. The balance is perfect, the design sublime. Recognizing that I am small enough to receive help and large enough to give it, I both receive energy and extend energy with a rhythm as melodic and as natural as breathing. Conscious of this process, I know I can inhale greater support when that is my need, and exhale greater support when that is the need of others. My life is lived in harmony. I am a graceful note consciously and organically connected to the universal song. As I am true to myself, those who are in harmony with me resonate to my personality and come to my side. Knowing that, I count myself blessed. I find myself both powerful and protected.”

– Julia Cameron – Blessings, Prayers and Declarations for a Heartful Life

Hawk Eyes

April 26, 2013

Another rambling…

My friends tell me I have eyes like a hawk… That’s because I’m always watching and I see things from afar…

I even see the watchers when they are watching me…

Daily Affirmations: Abundance

April 16, 2013

Let me focus today on what I have, for when I worry about having enough, I block the flow of prosperity and abundance into my life. Today I will focus on what I have and not worry about what I need, for I am confident that the universe will provide. ~ Pamela J. Leavey

Daily Affirmations: Change

April 2, 2013

Today, I re-mind myself that in working through changes in our life, we run through a variety of emotions that are normal and necessary to process the changes. Change isn’t always easy, and although we must embrace the change, we also may allow ourselves to feel thoroughly the anticipation, sadness, and even grief that might come up in the process of change. When we work through our feelings rather than cast them aside, we come out stronger and more at peace.
