God of all creation, help me to be patient with myself, that I allow myself to be present in each moment. Teach me patience in such a way that all my worries and fears be not hindrances, but opportunities to trust you more. Amen.

"All that survives after our death are publications and people. So look carefully after the words you write, the thoughts and publications you create, and how you love others. For these are the only things that will remain."

This day is a journey, this very moment an adventure.

Rebecca Pavlensko

May today there be peace within. May you trust that you are exactly where you are meant to be. May you not forget the infinite possibilities that are born of faith in yourself and others. May you use the gifts that you have received, and pass on the love that has been given to you. May you be content with yourself just the way you are. Let this knowledge 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.

The Grass is Always Greener – Series in Review

http://lifeasmom.com/2012/01/the-grass-is-always-greener-series-in-review.html

…sometimes we need to turn our focus to our own yards and not worry and fuss over what the neighbors have flourishing in theirs. Sometimes we need to reexamine our priorities and determine how much we’re willing to give to get those blossoms we so desire. And sometimes, we need to turn a blind eye to some renegade dandelions and just not worry about it.

Find life experiences and swallow them whole.

Travel.

Meet many people.

Go down some dead ends and dark alleys.

Trust everything.

Exhaust yourself in the glorious pursuit of life.

one little word 2012

After much deliberation I chose the word “today” as my word for the year. The following article is a good example of why today is so important – you never know what life holds in store for you.
