Your Daily Dose of Gratitude ~ Day 550

Gratitude For Your Life In General

----------------------------------------------------------

Thanksgiving Day comes, by statute, once a year; to the honest man it comes as frequently as the heart of gratitude will allow. ( Sandford )

Cherishing Your Challenges & Challengers

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

…it is the contrast or the diversity that that helps you to formulate your decision. And often the strongest decisions come out of the worst situations. It's those unbearable or deplorable things that often give the rocket of desire the greatest thrust. But what goes wrong with so many people is, once the desire is born, then they keep looking back and trying to justify the desire by pointing out how bad things are — and when they look back, they just include that vibration, which makes them a muted, clutter filter. They are not a vortex that is doing any summoning toward what they want. If you let a negative situation build that rocket of desire within you, and you focus upon the way you want it to be. And then you imagine that. You dream that. You amplify that. You look for evidence of that. You talk about that. You script that. You find the feeling place of that. You hold yourself in that vibration and you create that. You open the vortex, single-handedly, that hundreds of thousands, millions, then benefit from, because of your attention to the subject. Most of you do not believe that you have that kind of power of focus. (Abraham through Esther Hicks) - www.abraham-hicks.com

Cherishing The Moments

And in the end it's not the years in your life that count. It's the life in your years. (Abraham Lincoln)

Gratitude For Who You Are

-----------------------------------------------

We have talked about honoring who you are and honoring the ways that you may express love. Now, of course, a part of that is your sexuality.

The humanities are sexual beings from the time of your birth to the time of your death. And it is to realize that in your society, which has such extraordinary ideas about bodies and about sexuality, that in a way you have all been taught to put your sexuality to one side. That it is not really part of you; it is a separate thing. Sex is separate from who you really are.

That manifests in a strange way that as you grow, as you are little children, you are taught that sexuality is a very bad thing. And then you grow and you talk with everybody else and you realize that sex actually is not so bad and in fact it is probably quite a fun thing. Certainly when you grow up and you get married, it is a very good thing! And then you wonder about what you call your sexual hang-ups.

What nobody ever told you is that your sexuality is actually not separate from any other part of you. Whatever issues and fears you have in your life and whatever beliefs you have about who you are and your lack of love for yourself, indeed also show up in every facet of life, including your sexual expression.

What We Say, Be, & See – We Become

A sheltered life can be a daring life as well. For all serious daring starts from within. (Eudora Welty)

Kindness Is The Greatest Way To Display Your Gratitude

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Whether or not we realize it each of us has a special gift inside us just waiting to surface! We owe developing these gifts not only to ourselves, but those around us as well. The important thing here is not what your gift is as much as that you develop it so that you can share it with those around you and in the process further your own personal life! Once we have identified our special talents it doesn't matter whether or not we find immediate success in them, what does matter is that we take a step each day towards our intended goal! (Josh Hinds)

Daily Gratitude Affirmation/Intent

--------------------------------------------------------

Repeat this affirmation as often as possible throughout the "nows" of your day. Write it on a piece of paper and carry around to re-mind yourself

I love myself completely, exactly as I am.

------------------------------------------------

The Daily Phrase Of Praise

------------------------------------------------

(1) Apply this "phrase of praise" to all the nouns you encounter throughout your day. Write it on a piece of paper & keep it where you'll repeatedly see it & it'll re-mind you to remember to "spend your days in praise." You will feel yourself filling up with the energy of gratitude as you consistently use this phrase throughout your day. Fill your nows with "wows" by routinely using this phrase of praise.

I love myself completely, proven by the way that I ????

(2) Use this "phrase of praise" as a mantra in the "nows" throughout your day. Concentrate on your breath as you visualize filling up with the essence of this phrase and then breathe out and imagine releasing all that is NOT who you truly are – returning it to Source with gratitude, for all the lessons attained and the many strengths gained from the polarity initiation process of its passing presence as a chapter in your life. Now breathe in your next chapter, breathe in this "phrase of praise," turn the page and let it in.

<Breathe in> I love myself completely <Breathe out>
