Howdy Folks and Good Day!


I’ve got a question for you…

What would happen if you allowed yourself to be happy with you just for being you?

Please pause and really think about that for a moment…

What would happen if you allowed yourself to be happy with you just for being you?

Most of us have been trained to think we have to do more, get more, know more, or be more in order to justify feeling good about ourselves.  The truth is we’re completely justified in feeling good just because we’re alive.

Life is a miraculous blessing.  Regardless of what others might have told us, not one person is here by mistake.  Each one of our births was a miracle, a Divine gift to the world… And to us!

Sometimes our gifts are obvious and we inspire others with our example of what works and how to live a good life. 

Sometimes our gifts need to be un-buried and we inspire others by our example of what doesn’t work and how not to live! 

None of us is insignificant, no matter how much our mind, ego, or old programs may convince us so.  No matter what our circumstances in life, we can make a difference to others by sharing our love, our wisdom, or just a positive word of validation or encouragement.  And by simply being.

So what would happen if you allowed yourself to be happy just for being you?

What would happen if you let go of all the negative voices that have tried to hold you down in the past?  What would happen if you embraced your divine nature?  What would happen if you accepted and honored you for being you?  Right here, right now.  Give it a try!  Allow yourself to be happy just because you are you!

For those who already know the miracle of this acceptance, congratulations!  Keep on living it!  Keep on being the love, the joy, the peace, the inspiration.  Keep on being YOU.

Namasté.

Wishing You and Yours Peace, Love, Happiness, Health, and Prosperity…

Rev. Jeanette

1.      What kind of day will today be? 

The kind of day we make it! 

A little pro-active positive programming can go a long way in creating our heart’s desires.  All of our thoughts have energy.  Energy attracts like energy.  Think about your desires for today. What would you like to experience in the next 24 hours?   Allow yourself to see it manifesting in your mind’s eye and feel it happening in your body so the energy of your thoughts and emotions draws it to you. Affirm it on the lines below!

Today, I desire and experience…

2.      “Before your birth, you and a spiritual council of guides created a life plan tailored to meet your material, spiritual, and karmic needs.  This Divine plan has three elements:  a purpose, personal growth lessons, and relationships with other people to support the overall plan.”

3.      Success Strategies   — by Michael Angier

Have You Lost Your Focus?

We all know how important it is to focus on what we want. But what happens when we LOSE focus?

It's easy to do, isn't it?

We get distracted. Something captures our interest and diverts our attention away from our chosen objective.

We suffer setbacks. Things don't work out as planned. Someone lets us down. Circumstances change and good plans go bad.

We get interrupted. An important matter takes precedence--sometimes for long periods of time.

We, or members of our team, get sick or hurt. We don't have the energy we had before and often find it slow to get back in the game.

These things happen to everyone. And we have to be careful we don't think we're being singled out. The "Why is this happening to me?" question gets us nowhere.

We must first recognize that we've lost focus. And at the earliest opportunity, we must recommit. We have to get back on the horse we fell off from and ride again.

And this is what separates the winners from the losers.

The loser says it's too hard. He says it's not worth the effort. He thinks it's just "not in the cards" and he quits.

But the winner doesn't take the setback personally. She dusts herself off and recommits to the plan. She sees the setback as just that--a setback--not a sign that it's not to be.

What do YOU need to refocus upon? Is it a positive habit? A goal? A toleration you said you'd eliminate?

Revisit your reasons why. Focus on the results you will produce and not on what's not worked well. Because what you focus on expands.

Today's a new day. The past is just as historic as if it had happened a thousand years ago. You can't change what's happened or not happened. But you CAN recommit. You CAN refocus.

You can start anew.

So do it today. Remember the power of TNT--Today, Not Tomorrow.

5.      Sir Froggie’s Pondering — from Sir Froggie

PRESENT YOUR GIFTS TO THE WORLD – AND YOURSELF!

What special talents and skills do you have?  What are your personal and unique traits?  How are they helpful?

Present your gifts to the world – and yourself!

We’ve all been told we’re unique and possess special abilities and personality traits, but sometimes we have difficulty realizing what they are or what benefit they could hold.  Many of us are like a stored-away rare vintage painting or sculpture… one of a kind works of art whose value has yet to be realized. It’s time to take this work of art for an appraisal and get pleasantly surprised!

Gifts and talents don’t apply exclusively to technical training or work skills.  It’s equally important to have personal, emotional and spiritual skills too.  Being able to give a healing hug is just as valuable as being able to use a computer or calculator.  Knowing how to care for children or an elderly parent with compassion and patience is just as significant as knowing how to make a great corporate CEO.  Even something as simple as smiling at others can make a tremendous impact.

Our individual gifts are customized for each one of us and our unique place in the world.  We get the best results when we are consciously aware of what we have to offer and the ways we can utilize these contributions.  We’re even more effective when we team up with others who have different traits than us.  But in order to do so, we must recognize what we bring to the table.

If you’re not sure where to begin, finish the following sentence:  Regarding my personality, I am…

Let the words come without editing.  Keep writing until you feel like you’ve completely described yourself.  Get a highlighter and highlight every positive word.  Make a list of the words you just highlighted.

Now get a second highlighter.  Is there anything that might be seen as negative, or as an undesirable quirk?  Highlight it.  Next, look at the list of so-called negatives.  Are there any positive aspects of each particular word? 

For instance, if you described yourself as a workaholic, does your workaholism help you complete projects or bring financial abundance?  If you described yourself as having a short attention span, does this help you multi-task or not take life or yourself too seriously? 

Most of our negative aspects are simply positive things that have gotten out of balance or aren’t being put to good use.  Add your newly transformed positive aspects to the list.

Then finish the following sentence:  Some of my skills and talents are…

Once again make a list of all the skills and talents you have until you can no longer think of any. 

Which ones are the most important to you?  Were you surprised by any of the things you wrote down?  How does it feel reading over your lists?  How can you apply these gifts in your life and share them with others? 

It’s essential to recognize the value of your own presence! (Valuing yourself is not the same as conceit or arrogance.  It’s honoring the Divine within you.) The more in tune with yourself you are, the more you can give of yourself both within your own life and in the lives of others.  

Know this beyond a doubt: If you’re here on this planet, you have special traits, talents and skills to share.  You have a meaningful and purposeful reason to be here!  So take the time and effort to discover what you can offer.

Then present your gifts to the world – and to yourself!
