Happy Sunday everyone! A day to reflect, give thanks and share with those who you love. May this day be all that and more!
Yesterday I shared with you a few tips on putting that sizzle back into your life. Taking control of your gratitude attitude would be added to that list.
Without gratitude playing a major role in your life you have a constant flow of thoughts that say, is this all there is ? The desire for more will overwhelm and your thought process towards the day will feel like a ferris wheel moving a bit then stopping. Not a great feeling even when the wheel moves at a faster speed your still just going in circles.
Moving ahead and forward with gratitude is key here.
Today is a great day, everyday is a great day. It is all you have to have is the desire and attitude to allow your spirit and soul to enjoy each step you take.
The best part of Sunday is what you make it. For me its that early morning sunshine, that first cup of coffee. Listening to nature right outside of my window as I type away.
I start everyday with a first step of gratitude and passion for the day that awaits me. I start each morning with prayers of thanks to God above for letting me
have another day in the beauty of nature and life.
My focus today will be on adding gratitude into your life. Making it part of your daily habit and keeping it in your thought process at all times.
A quote about Gratitude:
Be thankful for what you have; you'll end up having more. If you concentrate on what you don't have, you will never, ever have enough.
~Oprah Winfrey
Being thankful and tending to your garden of thoughts. A garden that should be free of anger, free of disappointment and free of envy or jealousy.
The garden of thoughts that you tend to should be watered each day with words of gratitude. Taking notice to how those words effect the other and help your thoughts grow straight and tall with plenty of nutrients to feed upon during your day
.
.
The tending to your garden of thoughts should be early in the day, when the morning new still protects and helps with the feeding of your spirit and soul.
Early morning prayers and meditation and taking care of your body with proper nourishment will give you the best start to any day. It does not have to be for long, only as long as it would take to have any conversation with a friend or loved one.
This conversation or words of gratitude is with God and the energy that surrounds you. A conversation that says all is good and I am so grateful and blessed to have my life, my nature that sits outside and all around.
The tending to your garden of thoughts should be careful and with careful attention to any negative word or action that hides in your soul and spirit.
Replace it with love and kindness to that spirit of yours. Take time to reflect and appreciate what you bring to your plot in your garden.
Admire your beauty.
Admire your accomplishments.
Give thanks for life that has been given this day.
Give praise to those who give you unconditional love. Family and friends who always are close by when you need them the most.
Tend to your garden and remove all that is bad.
Tend to your garden of thoughts and give the attention it has to have.
For a garden of plants left unattended will become full of weeds, and harmful agents that will destroy its beauty.
So it is with the garden of thoughts, pay close attention and nurture your spirit and soul and beliefs with love.
A quote:
If you can, help others; if you cannot do that,
at least do not harm them.
~Dalai Lama
I modify it for you today and it is to teach and inspire and not to take away the beauty of the words above.
If you tend and monitor your thoughts each day and go forth with words that empower and strengthen your way.
You will find that your spirit and soul as it interacts will help and light the path to a more productive life.
A life that helps others and gives them hope and
if it does not help another in a kind and gentle way it will at the very least not harm you along your journey.
But perhaps shine a light for another and
gently light the path they may be upon.
Light your path with words that give hope and energy.
Light your path with gratitude
Light your path and know that smiles are sent your way from myself of course but others who take pride that your their friend today.
Enjoy your day !
