Weekly Inspiration :: Every Day Miracles

"Every day we are engaged in a miracle which we don't even 

recognize: A blue sky, white clouds, 

green leaves, the curious eyes of a child, 

our own two eyes.

All is a miracle."

~ Thich Nhat Hanh

Sometimes we find it difficult to recognize the beautiful, wonderful, 

and miraculous things happening around us every day.

We get easily distracted by work, social obligations, technology, and life's routine, so much so

that we forget about life's true pleasures. 

A beautiful blue sky, a soft breeze carrying the scent of spring flowers, the gentle warmth 

of the sun, a smile from a stranger....these are everyday miracles that touch

us on a deeper level than we might recognize.

Take the time and make a promise to yourself

to stop and appreciate life's every day miracles.

Take a deep breath, exhale, and recognize that you yourself are a miracle.

Weekly Inspiration :: Today is a Gift

"Yesterday's the past, tomorrow's the future, 

but today is a gift. 

That's why it's called the present."

~ Bil Keane 

Sometimes it is easy to feel plagued by the stress of yesterday and the pressures of tomorrow.

Its difficult not to think ahead and try to plan every waking moment. 

The truth is that we can't plan every moment. Life will take its course however it see's fit

and sometimes you just have to roll with the punches.

Try to see life's uncertainty as a gift, as a daily surprise waiting to thrill you.

Each moment is precious. Live today as though you have no control over the future.

Weekly Inspiration :: Explore, Dream, Discover

“Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do. So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.” 

~ H. Jackson Brown Jr.

Never be afraid to live in the here and now.

 See the potential in every moment, and embrace the changes life throws your way. 

The only thing in life worth regretting is never taking a chance.

 

 

Weekly Inspiration :: Take a Deep Breath

"Feelings come and go like clouds 

in a windy sky.

Conscious breathing is my anchor."

~ Thich Nhat Hanh

Within each of us is the ability to be the best version of ourselves that we can be. We strive and strive to do what we think is right, to focus on as many things as possible, and to worry about everyone and everything.

While it sometimes seems impossible to have even a moment of personal time, perhaps one of the

most important things we can do for ourselves and the people around us

is to stop and take a deep breath. Let all of your anxieties and troubles flow out of you and

feel your inner light start to burn a little brighter.

Something as simple as a deep breath has the ability to make us feel better, appreciate our surroundings, focus our priorities, and greet the day with a smile.

Generate positive energy from within and show the world how beautiful the inner you truly is.
