Day 76 /365 - An Internet Break

Ah...another sunny day... in the mid-high 50s. I am aware of my immense gratitude for:

1.) ...my awareness for my need for internet-free weekends and days...which I am starting after this post; to let myself slow down from the instant response and anticipation of the fast-paced internet, and the infinite bells and whistles vying for my attention, which keep me away from feeling "grounded and centered in my being" ...to let all that go and embrace: the Field of Nature's Elements, Spirit's Elements and my Soul's Elements and the wise, loving whispers from them all...to let them have their way with me...and to soak it all up... now that is paradise to me... and I look forward to meeting myself there... that, is home to me

I'll continue handwriting my Gratitude-Joy in my journal...and blog those days upon my return, which might be on Monday... or perhaps even longer. I'll let Intuition decide...

Day 75 /365

I am thankful for...

1.) the relief I feel in my neck and shoulders...and for Dr. Shepherd's treatment... (now, to sustain this)

2.) a smooth condo association meeting tonight....good neighbors..

3.) .and sweet Dante... Diana and Mike's Alaskan Huski

3.) another beautiful Spring day...

4.) that tomorrow is Friday!

Day 74 /365

Right here...right now... I am feeling Gratitude-Joy for...

1.) ...the symphony of church bells that play just as I approach St. Edmond each weeknight on my walk home from Metra... it's a sound I've not heard in a while...and the bells feel like their welcoming me...along my journey

2.) ...taking time to sit outside at St. Edmond's school...on my walk home... to take it all in... he Spring breeze... the trees, and the glorious daylight...and energy

3.) ...the tweets, cheeps, chirps and peeps from the array of birds...and the wondrous birdsongs they all have... music to my ears..and heart... thank you birds!

4.) .. the peaceful ride home tonight...and walk to the train from work... I appreciate knowing I will have a relaxing, uneventful ride home on Metra... a good way to end the work day

5.) ...the patient, courteous, friendly people I encounter each day... drivers who wait at the stop sign and motion me to cross even before i've started... it's like they happily wait for my safe crossing; their smiles...and good-will energy is indeed present

Day 73 /365

Today... I am alive, awake...and aware of my gratitude for...

1.) ...what I just mentioned above... and the bliss of Spring being in the air... it's affecting so many people is so many wonderful ways...

2.) ...the event we had today with clients at The Chopping Block.. what a wonderful way to get to know people better... by creating a recipe together...then sharing in the fruits of our labor

3.) ...catching up with my Sandi today... I'd not seen her face in quite a while

...life is good!

Day 72 /365

Ahh yes... the season of Spring is pulsing through my veins... I feel like I've just opened the windows of my being and this glorious Spirit-breeze is blowing through. It's amazing how enlivening to the soul...the renaissance of Spring can be. - Today is a day of gratitude for:

1.),,,the fresh breeze of Spring... and the sights and sounds that go along with it: the chirping, peeping birds scampering and fluttering in the bushes...it's so cute that I can hear them and not see them.. I heard a Cardinal on my walk home from the train tonight...and saw a Robin hopping around on the grass...

1b) ...the creative inspiration, and "juice" of Jamie Ridler... I am really stoked about the March New Moon post... getting us ready for creation of our Full Moon Dreamboards...on the date of the Full Moon -- Jamie.. you rock!

2.) ...the technique of using the Rainbow Obsidian Heart with the laser (thank you Pure Reign and Kathy F.) - I am so encouraged...and feeling good in my head, neck and shoulders...and spirit

3.) ...picking up Martha Beck's "Steering by Starlight"... checking it out to see if I resonate with it... Lisa E. is taking the teleclass with Laurie H. and highly recommended it... it has my interest, that's for sure...

4.) ...the clean bill of health for my eyes today... no more eye drops and my eyes look good inside out... finally.. thank you!

5.) ...sleeping well...
