Today I am grateful for the difficulties that give me an opportunity to grow
& make me stronger day by day.
It all happens in steps, and you can see them for the magic they are
when you stop and look back one day.
Todays my day.
The little moments that seemed insignificant
at the time. The fears and the struggles and how they eventually
( and painfully slow in my case)
start morphing into a stronger faith, and small wins.
This week I followed the cues.
Got up at 3:30 one morning to meditate
on the front porch, read devotionals by lamplight.
Journaling some instructions for the day.
Thoughts. Guidelines.
Nervous going solo to a early yoga class at the Y,
and then to my first day as a volunteer to assist in hippotherapy,
(horse therapy)
as a side-walker.
Breathe. Trust. Mindfulness.
Deep breath in stretch, breath out.
Words of affirmation and love,
as we flow from Childs pose to Plank to Downward Dog up to Warrior pose.
Breathe in love...breathe out kindness.
Restoration pose, an offer to rub lotion on our feet.
"I'm want to serve you."
Tearing up as I gave myself permission to receive.
Having a moment.
Unity.
Arriving at the arena early to volunteer. Willing to help in any way.
Plenty to do. Happy to serve.
Therapy time and time to assist.
An old retired race-horse.
A teenage boy.
A therapist.
Humility, reality, and a glow in my heart.
Everything coming together for a greater purpose.
Connection.
Passion.
Flow.
Journal notes that day...
The Holy Spirit will guide you and correct you as needed.
Refuse to entertain a gloomy view of the future.
'Morning is a time of preparation and opening.
It's a lovely time to prepare for the day & visualize
the outcome you desire.'
'Every time you put your passions into action,
you learn things you couldn't have learned
sitting still. You grow on the way.'
Decide for yourself what you want and need to do.
You belong. You are worthy. You are valuable.
You'll miss the blessing if you refuse to open your heart fully.
You must be non-resistant. Fear not. Poise is power.
"Sometimes an insignificant incident may be
a turning point in a mans life."
(typing this....Ha! Hindsight....as this is 3 days later...)
Today is Sunday. This song hit me right in the feels!
There's more to this little story,
and I thought I would share.
This is how the mini-saga began.
It began with a high...
then suddenly the low.
I had to let the dust settle.
be well...
xoxo
