GRATEFUL FOR THE PLANTING OF SEEDS

I am grateful to the Almighty because I have realized that it is as though I am a seed and am looking up into the light of a beautiful new day.

I am slowly taking myself on a new path.  I have become a new seed that is looking towards the light. My intention is to enjoy my life while I let go of that which doesn't serve me so that I can heal.

Passover preparations are going well and I am excited about going to the seders at PJC.  I love eating dinner out.  I dress for dinner and he has found nice restaurants.

I took my winter coats to the cleaners and brought home my spring coats and clothing. That has made me very happy.

I am able to walk for 2 hours outside and practice yoga. 

I am enjoying yet another book.

The Almighty has helped me to take a seed, plant it and look towards the light on a slow path to a wonderful new life.

I am grateful for this.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR SPEAKING AND LISTENING

I am grateful to the Almighty because again He sent me to yoga where I learned about speaking and listening.

It is important to speak, however it is most important to listen to what others say and the way that they say things.   It took me a long time to learn this.  I have been good at this in the last four years.  I also understand that I must speak the truth kindly.  However is it necessary to speak?  It isn't!!!  A sleeping person must be left sleeping.  One must no adapt, explain or try to help them to understand.

I am enjoying my dinners out and tonight we will do the same thing.  I am looking forward to the seders with joy.  I did the best that I could for years and now it is my time to have a life.

Today I will practice yoga.  I will take my winter coats to be stored and cleaned.  I will walk. I will take my spring/summer clothes out of storage and set up my closet.

I will meditate this evening with the music that I ordered.

I look forward to each day with joy.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR A NEW BEGINNING

I am grateful to the Almighty because I am able to see the beginning of this new day.

I will practice yoga today.  I will walk and read.  With joy and calmness, I will continue to ready the house for Passover. I will play with the dog. Tonight we will dine out as I have closed up the kitchen for Passover. The oven will be done today.

I will savor each moment as it won't come again.

Yesterday was equally as wonderful.  Services and a lovely Simcha Party began the day.  I was able to again walk for two hours.  I played with the dog and read.  What a lovely day.

I am grateful to the Almighty for each new beginning.

Thank you.

GRATEFUL FOR A WONDERFUL SABBATH

I am so grateful to the Almighty for a wonderful, calm and quiet Sabbath.

It is so different from when the girls were living at home and creating chaos and misery.

I am grateful that I lived to see this day.

May there be many more days like this.

Thank you Almighty.

I am grateful.

GRATEFUL FOR SANKULPA

I am grateful to the Almighty because in my yoga class yesterday, I learned about setting a Sankulpa.  This is more than an intention because it goes more deeply.

I decided to set a Sankulpa so that I would take myself on my new path BUT would do this slowly.  I would not be frustrated by how long it took BUT I would know that I was going to continue to present myself as a different person.  When I looked back on myself during these last four years, I see that this is true.  The progress has been slow, steady and has been absorbed into the new person that I am becoming.  I say becoming because a person is always changing.

I am grateful to the Almighty for learning this.

Thank you.

ADVENTURES ON MY NEW PATH

I am grateful to the Almighty for guiding me on my new path.

I will practice yoga today.  I will walk. I will get my hair blow out too.

Tonight is the beginning of the Sabbath.  I will be going to Jay's Oneg Shabbat.  I will continue to prepare for the Passover holiday.

I am grateful to the Almighty for the new path that I am on.

Thank you.


GRATEFUL FOR A NEW PATH

I am grateful to the Almighty because He helped me to find yoga which in turn helped me to find myself.  Yoga has helped me define what I am feeling.

I am on a new path which is not defined by having either children or a husband.  It is my very own path to joy and bliss.

Thank you Almighty for helping me to discover this.

I am grateful.
