In the back of my mind, the words “be careful what you wish for” would play as if what I asked for or needed would be distorted into something difficult and painful (my childhood was rough). My perspective has changed since.
Thank you. Thank you for this moment. I would like to say this not once or twice or three times in a day but throughout the day for the joys, the mysteries, the sorrows, too. Yes, I want to say Thank You for this ‘dance of life’ over and over, allowing my feet to kiss the earth and my grateful voice soar through the cosmos.
I don’t know that I put off saying things. Sometimes, for the good of my own soul, I keep my thoughts to myself rather than give in to the momentarily ‘pleasure’ of saying something unhelpful because I’m irritated or angry. But I’ll think about this question today.
I am grateful to understand now that sometimes I say too much out of wanting to be understood, I will practice saying only what is needed and trust this life.
❤️
I haven’t held back anything I’ve wanted to say for several years now. But something I don’t say enough is something I should say to myself daily – you are doing a great job. Keep up the good work!
Today I ask Sunnypatti a question. So, more asking than saying. I’ve been wondering for a while if Sunnypatti’s profile picture is a wedding picture. Is that correct? I think it’s a beautiful picture. 💕
I’m glad you asked this question, Christine — and it makes me wonder about everyone else’s profile pictures as well. Mine is a dragonfly that I appliquéd and beaded onto a small art quilt I made a few years ago. Maybe others will share about theirs as well…. 🙂
My picture is a flower that I actually grew, called Thunbergia Alata, native plant of Nigeria, common name is White Halo.
The plant is often thought of as an annual but in actuality it is a tender perennial that needs delicate care if it is to bloom again. The Latin meaning of word Alata(s) is “having wings”.
I made this my spirit flower. Every day I nurtured Alata along the way. It is exciting for me to see her grow, as with all my perennials, from the first little green tendrils breaking through the dirt, to the beautiful blossom once the warmth of the sun opens her up.
Well, Patricia, I love the sun and sunny days. Especially in the forest when the sun makes beautiful spots of light through the treetops on the mossy floor of the forest.☀️🌳

I surrender to God. I couldn’t say that before.
In the back of my mind, the words “be careful what you wish for” would play as if what I asked for or needed would be distorted into something difficult and painful (my childhood was rough). My perspective has changed since.
I forgive myself for my many mistakes and shortcomings.
(Still don’t quite believe it but that is what came up for me).
The Source of all things is concealed at our very heart and centre. The art of life is to connect up consciously with this fantastic Resource.
From my thoughts- it said, “Yes”—–but honestly, I’m not sure what for (so) I’ll just have to let the day unfold…..
Sono all’inizio del mio percorso di gratitudine,spero sia il modo migliore per ritrovare un po di pace interiore.
Translation=I am at the beginning of my path of gratitude, I hope it is the best way to find some inner peace.

Despite this challenging season of my life, I am truly grateful for all that I am and all that I have.
I am grateful to understand now that sometimes I say too much out of wanting to be understood, I will practice saying only what is needed and trust this life.

Something magical will happen today:)

Thank you, Christine… it is indeed a wedding photo. The most enchanted, perfect day 🙂
I wish I could see it enlarged! My eyes aren’t too good in the early morning!!
