Today’s Thought:

Love yourself-accept yourself-forgive yourself-and be good to yourself, because without you the rest of us are without a source of many wonderful things. ~ Leo Buscaglia

One of the most difficult journeys any of us take is the journey into our heart and to heal it. It takes heaps of courage to take that journey because it is a journey of forgiving one’s self and freeing all the things within our heart that keep us trapped. Perhaps it is a parent or sibling issue. It may be memories from school. It may be regrets. Whatever it is you’ll recognize it when you journey into your heart. When we love ourselves we can look at ourselves in the mirror with compassionate eyes and smile. We can offer ourselves a freedom others cannot offer us. The most courageous words we can say to ourselves are: “I love you.” “I forgive you.” And, “You’re perfect just as you are.”

Feeling Good Tip for Today ~ What Words Will You Use Today

Words – Words – Words

Words can heal.

Words can inspire,

Words can sh0ow our respect.

Words express our love.

And, words thoughtlessly uttered destroy relationships, degrade, shame, and disrespect.

We all feel better when our words build, heal, and elevate. 

What If . . .

What if I chose to take today one moment at a time what will I do about planning ahead? I think I’ll keep one eye on the present moment and the other eye looking ahead for a rainbow. That way we can keep a balance between living too much into tomorrow or too much into the moment. It’s a delicate balance. It’s more like a dance where each partner anticipates the moves of the other. There’s no looking back, take the memories that help or heal, discard the rest and dance on.

Insults, disrespect, and intolerance wound. Love, forgiveness, respect, and tolerance heal. When we work to heal the relationships closest to us we contribute to the healing of our fractured society.

Today’s Good Word ~ Voice

Our voices are unique to each of us. Security systems offer voice prints as a security check up. Our voices are a primary way we communicate with each other. We adjust how our voice sounds to enhance our communication. How do you use the power of your voice? Do you use it to build walls or build bridges? Do you use it to heal or hide? We can use our voice for good and to inspire others. It’s a good choice.
