We exercise to stay strong. We eat well to stay healthy. Is it time to exercise your imagination? Our imagination allows us to see things which we may not have thought possible. If, however, we can imagine it, we can create or discover it. I think I’ll grab a cup of coffee and imagine what tomorrow will look like for me if all things were possible.

A Better Life ~ Finding Happiness
If I can’t figure out how to be happy where I am, how will I figure it out where I want to go? Happiness happens now, in this moment, in this place. It’s up to us to figure it out. Happiness is waiting for us in this moment, we have to open the door to let it in.
What If . . .?
What if you turned off the laptop, silenced the smart phone, and set the headphones, AirPods aside for one hour and went for a walk? I wonder how you’d feel. I wonder what thoughts will run through your mind. I wonder what sights you’ll see that you hadn’t seen before? Going silent for an hour you’ll get to know yourself a bit better. And, you’ll discover you’re not so bad.
Today’s Good Word ~ Adventure
We go an adventure when we do something new. It may be a trip to a foreign land, large city you’ve never visited, new job, move to a new location, or a challenging project. Adventures are waiting for us. When we choose to play it safe we miss out on discovering new insights, meeting new people, learning new skills, and putting our knowledge and skills to the test. There are nearly four months left to 2022, plan an adventure. Begin planning for it and feel your excitement grow.
Something to Think About
Traveling broadens our view. When we travel we find other people, from different cultures and belief systems are not too different from us. The more we travel, the more we discover how deeply we are connected. When we know another person, it is more difficult to dislike or hate the other person. This is true in our local communities as well as on a global scale. If we can withhold judgments and choose to learn, we have an opportunity to connect, learn, and create a friendship.
Something to Think About
When we love another, we no longer think about ourselves, we think about the other. Whatever we do, we do for the other. It’s as if, after a long search, we finally found ourselves in the other. We wonder what life was like before we met the other. I hope you’ve found love in your life and it never lets go of you.
