Gratitude For Your Life In General

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

When you sit down to a meal, do you take a moment to appreciate it? Or is it something that is taken for granted? There are many in the world who will not have a meal tonight, or the next night, or the night after that. Appreciate your meal. Appreciate the life that was given by the plants and the animals so that you could have that meal. Appreciate the work that was done by the growers, the pickers, and the preparers so that you could have that meal. If you have good health, appreciate that. If you have pain, appreciate that. Appreciate your ability to feel, to see, to hear, to draw breath. There are many who cannot do even that… If you buy something, appreciate it enough to make it a worthwhile purchase. Instead of "making do," make it special. That does not mean it has to be costly. It means you have to take the time and attention to ask yourself what it is you would really enjoy. Live your life with conscious attention. Consider the invisible web that binds you to others through everything you do in every day. When you turn on the water at the sink, someone else made that possible for you to do. When you lie down in your bed at night, someone else made that possible for you to do. Someone made the bed. Someone made the sheets. Someone delivered it to the store where it was bought. Someone built the room in which you lie. Maybe it was you, but then you used materials that someone else made available.

Take a last look around and see how everything there is was made possible in so many ways by so many people around the world. There already is a global economy and no part exists in isolation from the others. You already are part of a global society, and what happens in one part of the world affects every other part. There is no movement made, no breath drawn, anywhere in the world that does not affect every other part in the world, whether you are aware of it or not. Appreciate your connection to everything else. It is there. You can feel it. FEEL it! Don't think about it so much. Feel it. Feel how you are part of the intricate web of life, of the flow of life and even of death. Appreciate these days and appreciate all that you are in these days, for you are changing, too… Be in an "attitude of gratitude" and you will feel yourself blessed beyond counting.

Cherishing Your Challenges & Challengers

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

In the current third dimensional reality on Earth, one learns compassion, understanding and love through experiencing every conceivable situation in life, ranging from poverty and struggle to wealth and power. This involves learning to rise above the limitations set by ourselves prior to the incarnation, thereby gaining strength and wisdom. Finally, as one ceases to judge and realises "I am my brothers' keeper" and that in truth, everyone is a brother - he or she moves to a place of peace and unconditional love.

Many now feel that they have learnt sufficiently in this realm and would choose to release the various patterns belonging to limitational learning and move on up to higher levels of learning. Learning goes on through higher dimensions, but it is through greater harmony and less solid types of experience. Whilst joy and peace are obtainable on the third dimension, these things are a matter of course on the higher dimensions. (Sandy Grason) - www.sandygrason.com

Cherishing The Moments

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

Whoever does not regard what he has as most amply wealth, is unhappy, though he be master of the world. (Epictetus)

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

Gratitude For Who You Are

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

You can support your transition in many ways, but the key word here is self-nourishment. Do those things that make YOU more comfortable. Because you are of the STO (serve the others) - polarity orientation, it is natural for you to want to turn your energies outward toward serving others, but it is at this time that you need to prepare yourself for your subsequent service, which requires that you take care of your own needs first at this time. If you take the longer view, all of the care that you give to yourself and those close to you now will be an "investment" in the treasure that you will make available to others when the time comes for you to do that.

What We Say, Be, & See – We Become

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

Remember that:

* The thoughts you think equal your point of attraction.

* You get what you think about, whether you want it or not.

* Your thoughts equal vibration, and that vibration is then answered by the Law of Attraction.

* As your vibration expands and becomes more powerful, it eventually becomes powerful enough for manifestation to occur.

In other words, what you think (and therefore feel), and what manifests in your experience, is a vibrational match. (Abraham through Esther Hicks, from the book, Ask and It Is Given) - www.abraham-hicks.com

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

Neutralizing Negativity & Preferring Positivity

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

You can understand how important it is to control your thoughts, as you can both carry out healing or induce illness into your body. It is all about the vibration of energy, and many of you know that the more negativity you bring to yourself, the more you lower your bodily vibration. Taken to extremes, you can destroy your physical self as the vibrations are no longer able to hold matter together. The chakras would no longer be able to function, and all of your glandular processes would cease to operate correctly. (Ker-On through Mike Quinsey) - www.treeofthegoldenlight.com

Kindness Is The Greatest Way To Display Your Gratitude

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

There is hunger for ordinary bread, and there is hunger for love, for kindness, for thoughtfulness, and this is the great poverty that makes people suffer so much. (Mother )

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 connect deeply to all that is good within the world.

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

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 connect deeply to ????

(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 connect deeply <Breathe out>
