Dear Friends … Feeling Abundance, Acting on Gratitude
Sometimes it seems like everybody is TALKING about gratitude. That’s a great place to start. Let’s FEEL it, though. It’s effortless if we truly feel what we’re thankful for.
For me, that means sitting with the sound of water until I feel the peace. It means closing my eyes to inhale the magnolia until I feel the sweetness. It means feeling oneness with something that transcends time and space. Then, I can be present. And when I am present, right here, right now, I know I am enough, so much more than enough. I know that I am part of the grand abundance. And … I feel no lack.
May we know that everything good is ours in love. May we feel what we know. And, may we act courageously on our knowing, to grow more abundance.

From one moment to the next, love seems to fluctuate; and so it is that one resorts to pulling petals. It’s not really love that springs up and then disappears, though. It’s our level of satisfaction with our relationship.
And while satisfaction is the most significant factor in commitment, we can gauge our overall satisfaction, rather than making a rash decision in an inflated or deflated moment.
When our satisfaction is low, the grass on the other side of the proverbial fence appears to be greener than it is, according to a commitment model developed by Caryl Rusbult, a noted psychologist. Conversely, when our satisfaction is high, we may dismiss the alternatives as irrelevant or inferior.

What do you want to let go of?
I love this concept. When we’re stuck, the first step is to let go of what we’re clinging to out of fear.… More
To know you is to love you …
Chances are you don’t really know your true self. Afraid that you weren’t “good enough,” you became somebody else in order to win love and acceptance.
The problem is that you can never feel good about being a fraud. You CAN feel good about being you, though! And that starts with getting to know just who you are.… More
