GRATEFUL FOR A NEW LIFE

I am so grateful to the Almighty for my new life.

I really enjoyed the Sukkoth holiday.  The prayers were spiritual and the PJC sukkoth was lovely.  I enjoyed attending my book club too.  I had created some projects for myself and those were accomplished also.  My yoga clothes are now organized and I have begun to clean the walk in closet.  After all old clothes have to make way for new ones.

I was able to remain calm, cool and collected as he tried to start the most idiotic issues.  People don't change and I'm so glad that I learned this.  Peace begins with me and I had the courage to let it go.  I also told him that we should close up the condo.  I have a wonderful life here and summer is over.

Today I will walk in the morning.  I will practice yoga, read and do some errands.  I also plan to take an evening yoga class before dinner.

My new life is a good one and I am grateful to the Almighty for this.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR QUIET HOLIDAYS

I am grateful to the Almighty because the holidays have been quiet as well as spiritual.

Rosh Hashana, Yom Kippur and now Sukkoth have been beautiful holidays.

I am grateful to the Almighty for this.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR FREEDOM

I am grateful to the Almighty for my freedom.

I have the freedom to make my own choices and to release myself from the binds that controled me.

I am grateful that I am free.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR THE ACCEPTANCE PROCESS

I am grateful to the Almighty because I am working to accept my new life.

My intention is to have a peaceful life and to accept the life that I was given.  My intention is to understand that peace begins with me.  I need to have the courage to let go of that which doesn't serve me so that I can heal.  It means giving up false dreams because that is what they are and once I can given them up, I can enjoy the life that I have.

It is a process that I am working towards.

Thank you, Almighty for this goal.

I am grateful.

GRATFULFOR PRACTICING YOGA

I am grateful to the Almighty because He sent me to yoga.

Yesterday I learned something so valuable. 

PEACE BEGINS WITH ME.  I HAVE TO HAVE THE COURAGE TO LET GO OF THAT WHICH DOESN'T SERVE ME!!!!!

That is exactly the way that I will live my life from now on.

Thank you, Almighty!!

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR CALM AND QUIET

I am grateful to the Almighty for the calm and quiet in my life.

This has enabled me to live a full life with ample time for all the wonderful activities that I do. However there are times when I forget and try to "teach."  I have obviously forgotten that he is arrogant and won't learn.  I waste precious time doing this. 

Yesterday I did this.  After a wonderful day filled with walking, yoga and a fascinating Memory Workshop, I made the mistake of talking to him a bit more deeply.  It fell on deaf ears and precious time was wasted.  In my defense this does not happen often.

I was able to regroup and take another yoga class, this time in very helpful meditation and to watch a film later in the evening.

I will not do that again.

Thank you, Almighty for putting me back on track.

I am grateful for calm and quiet.

I am grateful for my new life.

GRATEFUL FOR A NEW BEGINNING

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has allowed me to have a new beginning for my life.

I was amazed at the spirituality of my life yesterday on Yom Kippur.  Without those girls being here to make a mockery of the holiday, I was able to walk and spend the entire day in synagogue enjoying the awe of the holiday.  I was able to talk to my synagogue friends who have no real knowledge of them. I felt fine during the day because I was not stressed.  Without those girls being here, he too, could not make a mockery of the holiday.

Break fast was spent in the diner as a new custom.  It was wonderful.

Here I am on a Fall day which will feel like summer.  I will walk, practice yoga and attend my memory workshop.

What a wonderful day!!!

Thank you Almighty for new beginnings.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR A NEW LIFE

I am grateful to the Almighty for my new life.

Tonight begins the holiday of Yom Kippur.  I hope and pray that the Almighty grants my wishes for health and happiness for me and my family.

I am approaching the holiday with spirituality, calmness as well as happiness.  I have created a venue of peace and I hope and pray it continues.

Thank you, Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR A NEW DAY

I am grateful to the Almighty because I am healthy and happy and able to fully appreciate this new Fall day.

The windows are open.  A cool breeze is coming into the house.  I'm up before sunrise to see this beautiful new day begin because I don't have to go to work.

The day will be filled with joy.......walking.............yoga.............a book club................a new book to begin.

Thank you Almighty for this new day.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR THE NEW ME

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has helped me to become the new me.

I recognize all the challenges in my life.  I know when to be calm and quiet and to use my little voice.  I know when to change gears and when to respond.  

I am very proud of my accomplishments.  I know when to celebrate the good that is now mine.

Thank you, Almighty for my health and happiness.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR HAPPINESS AND HEALTH

I am grateful to the Almighty because He has allowed me to be healthy and happy.

I am grateful to Him for the abundance in my life.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR ALL OF MY BLESSINGS

I am grateful to the Almighty for all my blessings.

Thank you.

GRATITUDE FOR MY LIFE

I am grateful to the Almighty for His help in creating the life that I now have.

I went to an evening yoga class last night.  The instructor said that it is usual for people to lament about the things that they don't have and to cry out for them.

Instead we should be grateful for what we have.

That really resonated with me.

In this New Year, I intend to be grateful to the Almighty for what I have.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR A BEAUTIFUL ROSH HASHANAH

I am grateful to the Almighty because He gave me a beautiful Rosh Hashanah.

I was able to pray at PJC for the entire service.   I spoke with friends.  I was able to walk and meditate.  The meals that I made were delicious.

Best of all it was so peacefully quiet.  There was no drama from the non-believers because they weren't here!!!!   I knew how to deal with his nonsense also.  When he told me that he hated the Rabbi's speech I agreed. That ended that discussion. When he told me to walk ahead of him because he walked slowly, I went another way.  Why call attention to a couple that walked strangely?  When he criticized my friends (the one that he pranked) I listened and did not respond.  That fell flat too.

I am grateful for a beautiful Rosh Hashanah. I prayed my heart out.  I hope that the Almighty writes down in The Book of Life that I will have a good year and all my family will too.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR A GOOD YEAR

I am grateful to the Almighty for the good year that I have had and the new person that I have become.

Rosh Hashonah begins tonight.  I will be in services tomorrow and Tuesday praying that the Almighty grants me and my family a year filled with health, happiness and prosperity.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR THE NEW ME

On this first Shabbos, back from a wonderful summer in the Hamptons, I am grateful to the Almighty for the wonderful new life that He has given me.

I am grateful for the new person that I have become.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR YOGA

I am grateful to the Almighty because He was the one who sent me to yoga.

Each day that I go I hear something that makes my heart soar.  Yesterday the instructor talked about the change of season and about the trees loosing their leaves in the Fall.  She made the analogy that we too have to let go of that which doesn't serve you so that you can heal.

The holiday season is hard for me.  I had a dream for the girls that never came true and now I am beginning to let it go so that I can heal.  I have already done this with him and created a new and different relationship that I can live with.

I am grateful to the Almighty for helping me to find yoga so that I can learn to do this.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR A NEW DAY

I am grateful to the Almighty for a new day.

I am happy.  I am healthy.  I have the Almighty in my heart.

What more do I need??

Thank you Almighty for this day.

Today I will walk at Home Depot.  It's actually raining.  Then I will practice yoga and head to Fresh Market.  I have a Memory Workshop today.

I am grateful for this new day.

Thank you Almighty.

GRATEFUL FOR THE CHANGE IN ME

I am grateful to the Almighty for the change in me.

I am working hard to practice everything that I have learned in yoga off the mat.  I do see amazing changes in me and I am proud of myself.  Each day that I awake from the fetal position that I slept in there are so many possibilities in the new day and I am so grateful.

Today I will walk, practice yoga and attend my Yoga Book Club.  I will read and also listen to an audio book too.

I am grateful to the Almighty for this.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR A WONDERFUL SUMMER

I am grateful to the Almighty because He made it possible for me to have a wonderful summer.

I'm home now and looking forward to a day in Plainview.  The day will be filled with walking, yoga, errands, a book discussion and a Sisterhood Meeting.

I am grateful to the Almighty for my summer and for my wonderful life.

Thank you.

SMALL CHANGES

I am grateful to the Almighty for the small changes that He has helped me to make in my life. That has helped me to become the person that I am today.

We will be going to the condo for Labor Day Weekend.  Then the summer season is over and the High Holiday Season will begin.

I am grateful to the Almighty because I have had a wonderful summer and am looking forward to the spirituality of the High Holidays.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR JOY

I am grateful to the Almighty for the joy that I felt today when I did not have to go to the condo.

It was an amazing and relaxing day.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR SMALL CHANGES

I m grateful to the Almighty for the small changes that He has helped me to make in my life.

I was on my way to walk this morning.  I would then practice yoga, go to Fresh Market and then DD.  I would come home and be off to the condo.

However a small change occurred.  Newsday arrived and as a result of that I didn't want to go out east.  Who knows if the paper would arrive for the next 3-4 days and we could be robbed??  I said this to him after yoga, after going to the back, after getting DD coffee.  I was delighted!!! The crazy neighbor upstairs was again creating grief.  He only knows how to bully me and can't get a handle on her.

I said this in my quiet little cute voice and then went off to complete my walk.

I will have to go tomorrow but this small change gave me relaxing time today.

I am grateful.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR MY NEW LIFE

GRATEFUL FOR ANOTHER HEALTHY DAY

Life is good.  

I am happy and healthy.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.
