Random Thoughts... What Are the Things You...

What are the things you are saying thank you for today?

Take a moment.

I believe, even here we often hold habits... Giving thanks for those things, we always give thanks for. Maybe, today we should try to find those little things in life that we have not yet ever given thanks for. And maybe, that even means all the things we take forgranted, we pass by with a blind eye, or even the things we curse.

What would happen if we learnt to find gratitude in everything? Even in our pain, our loss, our worries. What if we were to realize, even in those things, there is something to be grateful for? Even if we can't yet articulate it, but simply give thanks that one day we will understand. Or simply to give thanks, that we have the strength to get through that storm.

And maybe, this is the question we should be asking ourselves not just today. But everyday. Making it a mission, to find those thank you's that we've never seen or felt before. To find those thank you's we've never spoken or expressed before.

Take a moment.

What are the things you are saying thank you for today?

The First Time... The Last Time...

"One way to open your eyes is to ask yourself, 'What if I had never seen this before? And what if I knew i would never see this again?'"

Rachel Carson

Learning to see things in a different light. Learning to be aware, attentive, appreciative.

It's like this with all things in life, I believe. Love as though you are loving for the first time. And loving for the last time. Embrace as though you are embracing for the first time. And embracing for the last time. Laugh as though you are laughing for the first time. And laughing for the last time. Listen as though you are listening for the first time. And listening for the last time. Stand in the middle of the world and reach your hands out as though it were the first time. And as though it were the last time.

Each and every moment we are given, is simply once. And once, is once and for all.

Why Not You?

"Why Not You?

Today, many will awaken with a fresh sense of inspiration. Why not you?

Today, many will open their eyes to the beauty that surrounds them. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to leave the ghost of yesterday behind and seize the immeasurable power of today. Why not you?

Today, many will break through the barriers of the past by looking at the blessings of the present. Why not you?

Today, for many the burden of self doubt and insecurity will be lifted by the security and confidence of empowerment. Why not you?

Today, many will rise above their believed limitations and make contact with their powerful innate strength. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to live in such a manner that they will be a positive role model for their children. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to free themselves from the personal imprisonment of their bad habits. Why not you?

Today, many will choose to live free of conditions and rules governing their own happiness. Why not you?

Today, many will find abundance in simplicity. Why not you?

Today, many will be confronted by difficult moral choices and they will choose to do what is right instead of what is beneficial. Why not you?

Today, many will decide to no longer sit back with a victim mentality, but to take charge of their lives and make positive changes. Why not you?

Today, many will take the action necessary to make a difference. Why not you?

Today, many will make the commitment to be a better mother, father, son, daughter, student, teacher, worker, boss, brother, sister, & so much more. Why not you?

Today is a new day! Many will seize this day. Many will live it to the fullest.

Why not you?"

Dream With Open Eyes...
