Don't Hold On

If you have a good time with your family this season,
enjoy it.

Don't cling.
Don't suffocate something good.

If you have a bad time with your family this season,
let it go.

Don't cling.
Don't wallow in your self-destruction.

If you have no family this season,
find someone else to do something nice for.

Don't cling.
Create abundance out of your simple life.

Just Wait

If you feel antsy today, sit still.

If you want to run,
don't.

If you want to stay, move forward.

Jump if you want to crawl.
Crawl if you want to jump.

Listen.
Say thank you for this time.

Contrary action reaps abundant rewards.

Roll Around

Let yourself go.
Forget about the rules today.
Jump up and down.
Do a leg kick in the middle of the street.
Let people stare.
They might learn something.

Sit Still

Just for today, sit still.
Breathe.
Say please and thank you.
Forgive someone.
Maybe yourself.
Stop living in a fantasy world.
Just for today look around you.
Find one thing you are grateful for that you never knew you'd be grateful for.
Take a bath.

Gratitude is an Attitude

Today is the day to start. To start living in the present. To stop living in regrets and mistakes of your past or future. To let go of old resentments that keep you from breathing fully. From fulfilling your destiny.

County your blessings.

Just forgive.

Just let go.

And, for sure..eat something that sustains you and form relationships that do the same.

Barely There Blues

If you are troubled by some of this dark early and dawn late kind of weather, try to add some new things to your routine, you may also be finding yourself wondering why it is you gave up your drug of choice.

After all, using wasn't always fun. It was also a reason to "escape" discomfort and, most certainly, to escape the blues.

The fact that is caused blues that would rival any tsunami was beside the point, because, after all, it did temporarily remove the pain.

So, for today, think about what it is you can do to replace that self-soothing tactic. Think about what will "feed" you instead of deplete you more. Think of what will make you more alive and able to embrace the reality of this time of year. You might just find that means doing something for someone else.

Sorry...

About the lapse..I'm at a conference and will be up and at-em soon again.
