When you start....

....out your day with appreciation

rather than take everything for granted

your world becomes alive.

Look for what's right.

Look for the gifts.

When you look for gifts

you start to find them in everyday

 ordinary things.

notes...

a warm cloudy breezy day

getting the gel polish removed from my "wedding nails" 

smores latte and C.S. Lewis at the local coffee shop

a $4 yellow vase and $1 photo holder at the flea market

   dinner with my cousins at the Mexican restaurant 

 Cake with a case of the zoomies...

and Fritzy vigorously shaking a stuffed duck that broke free

 & catapulted through the air and landed in the side of my head....

loving the vibes...

~

what you do is an expression of your internal mindset-

every act begins with a thought

there is power in a clear top priority

if you get your priority correct

the rest will come together

real change must proceed from the inside out.

become aware of your thought patterns

your mind can be transformed

lean into the most important parts of your life

put some wheels on your ambitions

celebrate the skin you're in

and be happy pursuing your own destiny

do you

~

'Concentrate on relating to Me.

Refuse to live by the faulty standards & practices.

Adopt a new way of thinking.

Trust Me to do astounding things in you.

I don't enjoy seeing you fail.

I love watching you grow.

I call you to greater things.

It's not about what I want from you.

It's about what I want for you.

'In Me you find out who you are and what you are living for.'

~Jesus~
