10/31/11 Sometimes we need to put ourselves first. Like the instructions of the airline attendant reminding us to put our own oxygen mask on before we help anyone else with theirs. We don’t understand this concept until we are overwhelmed and exhausted, having no energy left for people who count on us. Care for yourself so that you are better able to take care of others. The oxygen you need is all around you!
10/29/11 All situations in our lives, even the insignificant, teach us exactly what we need to be learning. The greatest teacher you could ever want is always with you. We learn much when we are open to receiving wisdom by attentively listening to others. Patience, compassion, perseverance, honesty, and letting go are covered in the classroom of the teacher that is your life. You have the “power” to do anything!
10/30/11 What is your life teaching you now? Acknowledge and honor the teachers around you and within you. Take a moment to consider what your life is trying to show you. Trust your intuition on the nature of the lesson at hand, work at your own pace, and ask as many questions as you want. Your life has all the answers and life is the classroom. God speaks through others. Happiness may be that middle ground between too much and too little. Give it away to keep it.10/28/2011
10/28/11 The generosity and love we express to others will be reflected back to us in the form of increased joy and abundance. Make the process of giving a conscious choice by sharing your resources with others. As we focus on building up our own sense of gratitude, we put forth powerful energy attracting more goodness to those we love. Positive energy reflects back to us in the form of joy, abundance, and happiness. Bless others and bless yourself!
10/27/11 There is no secret recipe for happiness. The people who flow through life joyfully, have not necessarily been blessed with lives of abundance, love, or success. They have the ability to live life on life’s terms and take the circumstances they have been handed. A simple shift in attitude can help us recognize our hidden potential. We can find a hidden potential for fulfillment in every event.
10/26/11 Each destination in life brings us to the doorway of a new one. Have courage to make new discoveries each and every day ~ paint a shell, play catch, sing out loud ~ to bring back the child inside. There is an undiscovered character of virtue within your soul. Look at something ordinary and see it with a new set of eyes. Creativity is one of our innate abilities that get stunted over time. Step out of fear and live!
10/25/11 Every day we receive gifts that go unnoticed. We tend to see what is missing in our lives instead of what we have. We can live as happy as we make up our minds to be. It is becoming conscious of how many gifts we do receive daily that brings us joy. We then realize that some of the most simple gifts are the ones we cannot live without!
10/24/11 We always make progress towards our goals if we have a patient mind-set. Step back and re-evaluate your game plan. Impatience often hinders progress by feelings of frustration and discouragement. Proceed slowly because consistency makes the difference in achieving eventual success. Maintaining a patient, determined mind-set will give you motivation to achieve your goals now & in the future.
10/23/11 Nothing happens without a purpose. Whether we are attracting or repelling success, it really depends on our willingness to stay open to a wide range of endless possibilities. The universe provides us with assistance and opportunities that enable us to make progress on our journeys of ambitious creativity. We may not understand the significance of some experiences, but our trust will help us choose wisely at each crossroad.
10/22/11 The Universal Intelligence, Spirit of the Universe, or God, whichever name you choose, wants to see you accomplish your goals. No matter how long you have hesitated. He will always be there to put the plan in motion at the first signs of faith. Do not fight the flow of energy. Nurture your dreams, but don’t force the process. God provides you with guidance, and if followed, your formerly stressful quest for success will turn into a journey of joy.
10/21/11 Are you optimistic and enthusiastic? Feeling hopeful and energetic enhances your ability to succeed. Simply focus on the positive, and affirm the outcome in the situation to be beneficial. Stretch your limits and you will achieve the goals desired. It is a natural law~ if you set an intention and remain optimistic, you will achieve the outcome you desire!

Author - Linda BeckwithI believe everyday is a gift from our Creator. As we age, some may fear the unknown~death. People who become aware of their mortality find they have actually gained freedom to live. They have found they have an appreciation for the present. We are all here to contribute love, forgiveness, and service. As I age, I want to nourish my soul's purpose. If we are open to grace, people will appear in our lives to encourage growth of our souls. Allow me to provide daily nourishment through loving words, because joy is our birthright. I call these my daily "Truth Vitamins" for spiritual health. Join me in discovering together our inner soul purpose with "Love~that's all there is". Archives
