Acknowlege the Good

"...choose today to quench our thirst for the 'good life' we think others lead by acknowledging the good that already exists in our own lives. We can then offer the Universe the gift of our grateful hearts."

~ Simple Abundance: A Daybook of Comfort and Joy by Sarah Ban Breathnach

Gratitude. What is the meaning? Not superficially happy. Not just "lip service".  True gratitude.  The beauty of the day. No complaints superfluously lodged about the weather, the cold, the heat, the rain, the snow.  True gladness for another glorious day to experience joy, love, happiness, no matter what chaos is spinning in my physical life. A conscious choice to get off the chaos merry-go-round and choose to be an expression of love, joy, and happiness in every moment. Like attracts like. I choose to attract good through my thoughts, actions, and attitude of gratitude.  

"The Woman You Were Meant To Be"

"Mant women today feel a sadness we can not name.  Though we accomplish much of what we set out to do,we sense that something is missing in our lives and - fruitlessly - search 'out there' for the answers.  What's often missig is that we are disconnected from an authentic sense of self."  ~ Emily
