Prayer for Daily Peace

May today there be peace within.
.....May you trust God that you are exactly where you are meant to be.
.........May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith.
..............May you use those gifts that you have received, and pass on
..............the love that has been given to you.
May you be content knowing you are a child of God.
.....Let this presence settle into your bones,
.....and allow your soul the freedom to sing,
..............dance,
..................praise,
......................and love.
It is there for each and every one of us.
.....May today there be peace within.


Thank you, Barb, for sharing this.

TIME IS FUN WHEN YOU'RE HAVING FLIES...

That was said by Kermit the frog... Thought it was funny. But then again, a lot of things seem to be funny to me now that my brain is not sugar-saturated.

Today is day 52 since I started the program of self-improvement. I've lost some weight -- but mostly I've gained some insight. I published my photo today. It was taken three months and 20 pounds ago. Will get another one taken soon.

This is not original - but I liked it and have paraphrased this --- The door to your heart opens from the INSIDE. I have been standing behind a "speak-easy's" door - you know, the one with a small opening that can be opened to look out. Speak easy is a good description for being easy with words - but not really heart-felt.

I noticed there was a real ice-build up around the bottom and it was difficult to open said door. So, with a friend's warmth, helping that to thaw, finally, I am opening the door to my heart, just a crack so far, and letting my words come from my heart -- letting life happen instead of expecting and anticipating life.
