CHAPTER 1
Day 1
Every Day Is a Celebration
Timeless Wisdom: There are a multitude of reasons to celebrate. Each day is as monumental as any other. We have tremendous opportunities to speak out, give rise to harmony in moments of conflict, set the record straight, and spearhead campaigns of conscious forgiveness, mindful rejuvenation, and awakened celebration. Every day can be filled to overflowing with gratitude. May we take notice, and whisper a simple thank you with each step. Every minute equals 60 chances an hour. In a 24-hour period we have 1,440 opportunities to demonstrate our gratitude.
Expression: What are ways that you celebrate your life? Create a plan for a celebration filled to overflowing with gratitude for your favorite people and ways to have fun.
Today is filled with gratitude for your favorite people and enjoyments.
Day 2
Take Flight
Timeless Wisdom: There are infinite creative possibilities in every moment. Our days are filled with explorative intersections. Upon waking from a deep slumber, we are human beings slipping from our cocoons and exploring the opportunities of the new day. Like butterflies, we might take flight in any direction. Let's just say, sleep is a purification ceremony and an act of forgiveness and reconnection. Wakefulness is a spiritual emergence, a birth of new life. It is ours to investigate and research every new possibility. We each awaken to our greatness of personal character, attitude and disposition. Use every ounce of courage you have to spread your wings and fly!
Expression: Close your eyes and realize that you have wings to fly in new directions. Write down the things you want to fly toward, and give yourself time to think about them.
Acknowledge your thankfulness in how you learned to fly.
Day 3
A Child's Heart
Timeless Wisdom: There are no fences or limits on magical enlightenment in an original mind. May we gift every child the freedom to express the infinite wisdom he or she came to this planet with. Let the child within each of us slow down enough to truly examine each repeated belief we claim as ours. It may be time to clear our thoughts of old patterns and listen to our deepest wisdom from a childlike heart. Releasing habitual beliefs of fear and restriction handed to us awakens the freedom to celebrate and desire to express our own convictions.
Expression: Is every belief or opinion you were taught an authentic feeling or truth for you? Do the miraculous today. Release yourself from a habit and write about it.
Your inner child will show you what it is most thankful for.
Day 4
Special Gifts
Timeless Wisdom: Clear thinking requires training. First we learn what other people think. They teach us and we grow up believing they're right. Then we discover on our own that we are not in harmony with their teachings. Our personal journey is finding our truest purpose, being authentic, and allowing our individuality to express its realness. May we live our own truth and accept the diverse paths of others. Let us realize that each person has a personal gift that we are all destined to express and share. It is our daily choice to live in harmony, balance and grace in our diversified universe.
Expression: Create a list of what you discovered as your gifts of authentic expression. Write how you might share them with others.
Feel gratitude for all you have discovered.
Day 5
Destiny's Decision
Timeless Wisdom: Destiny, free will, and the decisions we choose move us through life, create a magnetic field around us, and perceive the road in front of us. Often we do things or we manage choices that distract us from our true destiny. Many times we are crashing, colliding, leaving things behind, or backtracking to figure out why things didn't go the way we wanted. Within each of us is an internal pace, personal rhythm, and honest groove. May we seek to coordinate our actions with our intimate natural being in full color. Mother Earth's truest character is to gracefully contain all living things. Our human contributions are in alignment with our own destiny and Mother Earth's truth as we balance in her gifts and joyfully trip the light fantastic.
Expression: Take a few minutes to gather your thoughts about destiny. Write what a balanced scenario between yourself and Mother Nature feels like to you.
Allow your destiny to contribute to Mother Nature with appreciation.
Day 6
An Exceptional Life
Timeless Wisdom: Each new day is an opportunity to envision or recreate our circumstances into a flourishing, more vibrant life. There is room for being extraordinary within whom we have become and where we conceive ourselves to live, work and play. We continue expanding our visionary...
