It's been a while since I have written a Gratitude Post.
And I can feel in deep into my bones.It's shocking really how easy it is for me to let doing the day to day allow me to slip from doing things I know in my heart that I must do personally for my ownSelf Care
For me, as an oversensitive empath, it seems to take slipping into a darknessto remind myself once again on the supreme importance ofGratitude.
I think I get to a place of ego and I got this now ...and I stop practicing Good Self Careunder the guise of getting more done in a day.I let my ego rule my dayand I get greedy for 'accomplishment' and 'keeping up with people'.during which Social Media platforms feel more like daily comparisonsrather than the beautiful tool for connectednessthat they are to me when I am balanced and able to channel myHigher Self.
So today, with focused intentionof once again channeling my Higher Selfhere is a list of my Gratitude for this week.
This week I am ever so Grateful for great friendsand the ability to spend time with them.You all know who you are.My love and appreciation for you is big.
I am so Grateful to spend time with Family.For they are so much of my Heart.
And on that noteif you follow me on Instagram you saw last weeks wonderful
Proposal Event!I am so Gratefulthat we will be adding a new family member next Julywith the marriage of my youngest son Hunterto his gorgeous new fiance' Megan!They have been together six years alreadyand it was always my secret wish that they would end up together in life.
I will be sharing more of this gorgeous proposal in an upcoming post.
This week I am so grateful for
my garden.Early mornings in my garden bring my soul peace and calm.
My blooming flowers remind me to be intentional in my focusand appreciation of the beauty before me in the garden
and in life.
In my younger gardening yearsI was always trying to get everything in my garden 'perfect'before I let myself enjoy the garden.So it was no surprise I really rarely enjoyed my yard and gardens.Because gardens are a lot like life ...if you wait until all the parts are in perfect order ...you will most certainly miss
the beauty and little miracles along the way.There are only fleeting moments in a gardenand in lifewhen everything lines up perfectlyso it's so important to enjoy every bit of good along the way.
I have realized over my yearsit's vitally important to teach yourself to focuson all the little beauties that happennot just in the garden but in life as well.
This week I will be intentionally focusing on all the good and beautiful to be found each day.
I would love to hear what you are Gratefulfor this week.
As always my friends
I wish you love and joyas you style your life
