Howdy Folks and Good Day!
No matter who we are, or where we come from, or even where we’re going, all of
us want to feel good inside. We want to
feel loved, special, worthy. We want to
know we make a positive difference and that we’re capable of doing good
things. We want to know we’re smart, and
well-liked and respected.
Now here’s the tricky part… In order to experience those things we have to be willing to GIVE OURSELVES what we want and what we’re looking for!
Let me explain a little… Let’s start with Love.
Everyone wants to be loved. Everyone
wants to feel loveable. Everyone wants
to know unconditional love. But how many
of us are willing love ourselves or even send love to ourselves?
This alone can be one of the greatest steps we take toward living a happy and fulfilling life. Saying, “I love you” to others may come easy to us, but what about saying, “I love you” to ourselves?
God ahead and try it. Wrap your arms around yourself, giving yourself a good hug, say your name, and say, “I love you…”
What does it feel like?
If it’s anything less than positive, it’s time to make some changes and reprogram yourself.
One of my favorite meditations is as simple as placing your hands on your heart, addressing yourself by name, and saying, “I send you love…” As you say it repeatedly, you’ll begin to feel your hands and heart heat up. This is literally Divine Love flowing through you!
If you feel at all uncomfortable saying, “I love you” to yourself, I highly recommend practicing “I send you love.” It’s a great way to get around your ego or inner critic while allowing yourself to give yourself love, and actually “loving yourself” in the process!
We can use this meditation for any number of qualities such as respect, worthiness, and intelligence. If we can think it, we can give it to ourselves. And as we give ourselves these qualities, we’ll begin to express them in our lives and draw more of them to ourselves. (We give ourselves what we think about anyway… why not consciously choose to give ourselves something positive through our thoughts?!)
As they say, “we teach others how to treat us.” Sometimes, we also have to teach our Self how to treat us.
Today, I challenge every person who reads this to practice sending yourself love, every day, for one to two weeks… even if it’s only for two – five minutes at a time. Notice what happens. What does it feel like? Can you sense a shift in your energy, thoughts, and attitude? Are you more positive? Do you feel better about yourself?
Take care of YOU. And know that YOU
With Peace, Love, Happiness, Health, and Prosperity…

HIS
WIFE’S
A man absolutely hated his wife's cat and decided to get rid of him one
day by driving him 20 blocks from his home and leaving him at the park.
As he was getting home, the cat was walking up the driveway.
The next day he decided to drive the cat 40 blocks away. He put the
beast out and headed home.
Driving back up his driveway, there was the cat!
He kept taking the cat further and further and the cat would always
beat him home. At last he decided to drive a few miles away, turn right, then
left, past the bridge, then right again and another right until he reached what
he thought was a safe distance from his home and left the cat there.
Hours later the man calls home to his wife: "Jen, is the cat
there?"
"Yes," the wife answers, "why do you ask?"
Frustrated, the man answered, "Put that son of a ***** on the
phone, I'm lost and need directions!"
A NOTE FROM THE EDITOR: Although
I found the above quite humorous, please, please, please do not abandon your
pets (or anyone else’s)! If you really
do not get along with them, adopt them out, give them to family or friends, or
if absolutely necessary, take them to a no-kill shelter.
And for the record, if you come into a relationship with someone who
has a beloved pet, and think you’re going to make them choose between you or
their life-long companion who has loved them unconditionally, been there for
all the ups and downs, forgives honestly and earnestly, makes them feel special
just by looking at them, brings love, joy and laughter to their day, always
worships them, takes away their stress and is an angel in disguise, well,
hopefully you get the picture! J

For A Good Laugh, Check Out
It started so simple, so innocently… Tom
fulfilled a promise to write the stories he said he would tell. A man, two dogs
and a forlorn tree… Who could have known it would turn into the intriguing
series known as "The Christmas Tree Chronicles." Don't be fooled by
the name, these twisted tales take you year round!
It doesn't stop there, though.

TAKE
THE SFPNN KINDNESS CHALLENGE!
Living through the words of Gandhi, we must be the change we want to see in the world. We must also acknowledge those who are in the act of creating those changes. Therefore, we have two challenges for you.
Kindness Challenge # 1: Do something kind today and every day. It doesn’t have to be of earth-shattering proportions to make a positive difference. Simply saying “Thank You” or letting someone know they’re appreciated can have a tremendous impact. Find little ways to be kind and to make our world a kinder place. And feel free to tell us about your kind act!
E-mail: “KINDNESS”
Kindness Challenge # 2: Share something kind someone has done for you! People are kind to us in a myriad of ways on a daily basis. But we often overlook their kindness. Become aware of acts of kindness and acknowledge the person performing them. Then share their kind gesture with SFPNN.
E-mail: “KINDNESS”

Moments of Joy — From Joy Hart
After being very sick over the holidays, I have emerged feeling highly energized and songs are pouring through.
each holy
instant
Each Holy Instant is an
opportunity
To let something new be born.
Something that has never been before
This very moment right now.
This possibility lives in each moment
That we are alive,
But it’s easy to get stuck in a rut
And feel like you can’t move on.
I’m here to tell you it’s never too late
To be who you came here to be.
Let yourself go, get into the flow,
You’ll be amazed at what shows up
When you’re open to
What wants to be
By means of me and you.
You Can Be Healed
You can be healed in any moment
You allow yourself to be.
What goes on out here
Is not as important
As what goes on in here.
Getting sick sometimes happens
To provide us an opportunity
To narrow our focus
And tune out the world
And simply just be
This particular being
In this Monopoly piece,
Coping with life on earth.
