Present moment focus

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Loretta LaRoche is one of my favorite people and one of her quotes inspired me today:
If you think the worst and get the worst, you suffer twice. If you think the best and get the worst, you only suffer once.

I needed to be reminded of this as I have 3 people very close to my heart that are finishing their journey here in this world and it has been difficult to keep my focus on the present moment and stay positive when I am not with them. After reading this quote this morning, I realize that the most powerful gift I am giving to them when I am with them is the gift of my love and my presence -simply sitting with them letting them know they are loved and cared about. And I realize that I can continue to hold them for now in the same loving space and keep my thoughts and focus on all the blessings, joy and love that I feel for them and let go of all the fear, worry, and sorrow. What wonderful loving energy that would be to send out to them in thoughts and prayer in this present moment until it is time to say goodbye and grieve for them when that time becomes the present moment.

Affirm:
In this present moment I will keep those I love in a sacred space of positive love and light.

Have a focus on Loving thoughts Friday!

Challenges provide Gratitude moments

Get Jazzed & Joyful Thought:

Whatever challenges you are facing today know that you are strong and capable and you will get through it. And for every challenge you face there is always an opportunity for more knowledge, more experience and more valuable lessons.
There is also the opportunity for Gratitude. Gratitude is a powerful skill that turns regrets and remorse into a Grateful Heart and Mind. Gratitude allows you to move forward in spite of fear and failure. In every challenge lies a gift or a blessing that would not be found without a perspective of Gratitude.

Today challenge yourself to find things to be Grateful for. Then see what Blessings unfold for you!

Affirm:
   Every challenge provides me with Opportunities, Blessings and Gratitudes!

Have a Grateful Tuesday!
