I’m in the mood to share some appreciation and I get the feeling that maybe you are too. I see a whole lot more positivity, gratitude, and appreciation happening around me.
Here’s your enriched Life Assignment: Take a moment, sit down and write at least five things that you absolutely love about your life.
Oh wait, did you hear that? I think I heard someone say that you don’t have time. Hmm, I didn’t think I did either, but guess what? Life isn’t about the doing, it’s about the being, the creating, the enjoying, the showing up. So today, think of this as your opportunity to show up – for yourself and for others – knowing that THIS is what matters. THIS is the good stuff of life. You have 4 minutes. Make time.
I’ll share my favorite things about life as well and I invite you to share your top five in the comments section below this post. But first… Here’s a little music to get you going!
- I love that everyday I get to begin anew. I get a fresh start. I get to do what I want. Wear what I feel like. Smile differently. Walk, skip, or jump into my world. I get to make each day even better than the next. Isn’t that a gift itself?
- I love that everyday offers great unpredictability. I write to-do lists, I aim for one thing , and in a flash, it’s so different than I could have planned. Sometimes I revel in it, while others I just try to survive. But it’s okay, I am here, I do.
- I love that life takes care of me. It just does. I’ve said it for years and I’ll never stop believing it.No matter what happens, how it happens, or when, I believe in life and really, that’s all that matters.
- I love that everyday I get to dress up or dress down as I see fit. I get to express myself, my emotions, and my being. Everyday I get to be more me. Lacy.
- I love that on some days I rise before the sun and awaken my body with yoga. I feel strength and heightened awareness each time I practice. I am blessed with a body that moves and connects as passionately as mine does.
- I love that I can literally do anything and everything I want right now, today, tomorrow, or a year from now. The world IS at my fingertips and I AM the captain of my ship. The world is my ocean.
- I love that I will meet someone new today that I may form a lifelong friendship with. Likewise, I will meet someone today whom I will never see again. There is beauty in both. Urgency to make the most, and delicacy in simply being.
- I love that when there are no words to explain, someone has sung about it and I can find a song to express myself.
- I love that I wake up with health and happiness on most days.
- I love that I can look at myself in the mirror and I smile. I smile because I am happy, I am proud, I am full of life, and thrilled by being here contributing my unique gifts to the world.
Reach for Your Rainbow
I love that I am in a position to dream my dreams and hold tight to them because they actually can… they will come true. They do. They have… And they continue to.
