Together...

"Great things are done by a series of small things brought together."

Vincent Van Gogh

This is my hope ~ that each small present moment in my life, will bring together beautiful things that I can't always see clearly, but accumulate and the miracle's happen!

Moments...

"Miracles come in moments. Be ready and willing."

Dr. Wayne Dyer

I don't want to be looking around every corner wondering, it this the miracle? I want to live each present moment, open and willing to see the miracles as they appear before me and ready to say... "Thank You."

Progress...

"Because we do not know what is going to happen next, if we choose to prevent or resist the present moment, we may actually be interrupting a miracle in progress."

I'm trying to allow the present moment I'm in to flow freely and not resist it's progress. There are bigger and better plans for me and my family and my job is to keep moving through with as much grace and love as I can. My heart is still grieving but as I put my trust in the process of life, I can watch the miracle unfold before my very eyes.

Allow...

"If you choose to see EVERYTHING has a miracle, then where you are right now is perfect. There is nowhere to run to; there is nothing else to do except be in this moment and allow what is to be. From that place of radical acceptance MAJOR change can happen. The first step in any transformational experience is acceptance and surrender to the present moment the way that it is. From that place we have the awareness, humility and POWER to change what is."

When I read this, this morning it seemed to bring relief. If I choose to believe, then where I am is perfect and I have nothing to do but be in this present moment and "allow" what is to be. It offered me a sense of freedom from my mind, that can often drift to unhealthy familiar places. Of words I tell myself that don't serve me anymore. And as any thing in life " I can choose" at anytime to change my thoughts and allow...

Miracle...

"The mind that is aligned with Love simply observes the circumstances and chooses not to label them. We feel the feelings that come with each circumstance, but we do not let them define us or keep us stuck in a rut. We let the feelings come and go like a gust of wind - unattached and aware.

Because we do not know what is going to happen next, if we choose to prevent or resist the present moment, we may actually be interrupting and stopping a miracle in progress."

Words borrowed from: http://thedailylove.com

If I KNEW a miracle was in progress I would stop resisting the present moment, but since I can't do that, I have to TRUST, and "let the present moment happen." Allowing circumstances to come and go is a habit I will continue to work on. My brain wants to figure it out and have it all make sense. So simply being an observer allows me to relax more and just let "it" be.

Allowing...

When giving up resistance and letting go, I am left in the state of allowing. Allowing only good thoughts to roam free in my head, allowing only positive thoughts about others to surface. Allowing, opens up space for all good things to flow when I step aside and stop thinking it's all about me. Then comes expectance. Expecting the miracles that only the universe can pull off. Expecting love and joy and peace on earth. Then acceptance, that I am all I need to be. I am whole and beautiful, as we all are. I don't need to impress or try harder. I just need to be me, and KNOW that is enough.

So here I am world... JUST ME

November...

I started the month of October as my "no worries" time. I have decided to have November as my "be grateful and no analyzing my feelings month". I want the days to just swim in gratitude and offer them no resistance to anything that I am feeling. To just let "it all be". To live each and every moment carefree, living in expectancy and joy as the universe figures out the end result. It feels good to LET GO and rest with childlike anticipation, as I become more and more use to the everyday miracles. I am overflowing with GRATITUDE.

October.......

I have chosen October as my "no worries" free month. I am experimenting with the idea of practising everyday for a month to not pick up worry, or fear about my life. To wake everyday and set my intention to only GOOD thoughts and expecting miracles. What harm can it do? My cup is half full or half empty, it's however you want to look at it. When dark clouds of thoughts come my way I refuse to let them in. Positive energy reins over me.

An Attitude of Gratitude

"They" say.... A miracle is only a shift in perspective. Today I am choosing to shift my thoughts to gratitude.

I am grateful for:

Myself- learning to love myself and celebrating being me

My children- may their gifts add light and love to the world

My home- a safe and loving place to be

My friends and family- their acceptance and joy is the food that sustains me

Our cats- it's a love that keeps on giving

Sunshine, good food, a car, random kindness, peace, a good nights sleep, and HOPE!

EXPECTING MIRACLES.........
