Day 128

May today delight us with discovery.  Perhaps it will come dressed as a new friend.  Maybe it will be the discovery of a new favorite restaurant, or a movie.  Or it may be a personal discovery, learning (or re-learning) some deep truth about ourselves.  Life should be a constant journey of enlightenment: mystery surrounds us… read more

Day 127

Yesterday we began; today we continue. Yesterday we cried; today we smile. Yesterday we loved; today we love again. Yesterday we hurt; today we heal. Yesterday we were afraid; today we are brave. Yesterday we were ashamed; today we are humble. Yesterday all our troubles seemed so far away… Yesterday we smiled; today we laugh.… read more

Day 126

May this day unfold in splendor and magnificence.  May we discover blessings anew.  May our actions be thoughtful and rooted in our values.  May we walk in reverence and delight in the ordinary miracles that surround us.  Let us seek to give aid and comfort where we find need.  Let us be dutiful and diligent in our industry.… read more

Day 125

In prayer, it is tempting to petition for our desires, whether they be material, psychological, metaphysical or spiritual.  This, however, is not the purpose of prayer.  We pray to remind ourselves of the spiritual path we follow.  We pray to remain mindful in our daily living.  We pray to remind ourselves that there is a… read more

Day 124

May this day bring comfort and relief to our parents.  They have accomplished much, not the least of which is Us.  They have not always been perfect, but then again, neither have we.  They have sacrificed, worked hard, and have dedicated their lives.  The time has come for them to know peace, contentment, and security.… read more

Day 123

May we, this day, take stock of the value of our contributions to the world.  Let us not sell ourselves short for our industry and our talents; let us also maintain a generosity of heart and spirit.  Worldly wealth will only go so far; riches of the spirit will last a lifetime and beyond.  The… read more

Day 122

Today is for energy and motion!  Lets us move into this day, resolved to change, undaunted by insecurity or anxiety.  Give a little, get a little; give a lot, get everything.  Either way, we make manifest change by simply acting, by merely leaving the door and engaging with life.  Movement is all.  We may not… read more

Day 121

In our search to be fully engaged in our lives, we must accept and practice vulnerability.  And yet, to be vulnerable is to be exposed, to be unsettled, to stand with our souls naked to the world.  It is a dangerous place to be.  However, it is necessary if we are to engage wholly and… read more

Day 120

If only there were words.  Words of inspiration; words of motivation; words of comfort; words of determination.  Yet, not only words, but energy behind them, and motion through them.  To see an ideal in our hearts, to have the impetus to engage, and the power to act is some form of spiritual alchemy.  It has been said… read more

Day 119

A prayer to the gods of paradox: Life is like Box of  Pandora – you never know what you’re going to get.  It is marvelous and terrible all at the same time.  Unpredictability causes anxiety, and yet we mostly only encounter randomness in our lives.  So may we answer paradox in kind: when the unexpected happens,… read more
