Gratefulness
Also finding the word of the day particularly comforting, no need to know what is coming but, in the darkness, I can find guidance in every bit of light along the way
It comes from the inside out, not the other way around, even if in the end there is no “action” at all, the inner work will at least make me emanate good energies into the Universe
It’s ben almost a year I’ve had the time to bond with my daughter. She’s been at a school where she is loved. A loving relationship with my parents, we had many years of misunderstanding. A great sister and 99.9% loving extended family. A kinder relationship with myself too (in progress)
I think freedom is important to me, personal and other types. I had never really taken a firm stand for anything, as I tend to consider others’ point of view highly, and conflict horrifies me. But hearing, for example, that the existing Constitution in Venezuela is being put in jeopardy, prompted me to participate for the first time in organised protests.

I think freedom is important to me, personal and other types. I had never really taken a firm stand for anything, as I tend to consider others’ point of view highly, and conflict horrifies me. But hearing, for example, that the existing Constitution in Venezuela is being put in jeopardy, prompted me to participate for the first time in organised protests. There has also been a parallel effect that has had to do more with my personal freedom, where I am finding myself, more and more, standing up for it. Global and domestic resistance ????
Being with family, I know it because I feel at peace, it is not necessarily an excited happiness. I am grateful I will be visiting my family next week

Thank you for this wonderful parable, made me think of the extroverts and introverts and how we need each other ????
Yes, a lot of lightness needed, taking things less seriously and more beautifully, thanks for this prayer Ed
Anna, thank you for your beautiful insight, it actually made me understand the question better, and realise that it is in fact tricky to choose between “inner and outer work” and that they almost oppose each other, very interesting, thank you for telling about the author of today’s word too, fascinating…
Christina, but you do often put a smile on my face lol
Antoinette, I love this, we are taught to toughen up, so it’s not surprising that softening up is so needed in the world
????
It is wonderful Anna! ????
Yes Aine 🙂 changes usually feel like danger, I am on the same boat at the moment, the mind says the move is not too logical, yet deep inside it feels right, so I take this as the reassurance from God that you speak about, thank you for the reminder
Same for me with my daughter ????
Hi, Deb, yes to your reminders too, thank you ????
Mary, you made me smile ???? and, like Anna, I loved your post and honesty because I can relate so much! Yes, you are not alone and thank you for your courage, I couldn’t even know how to answer this question
I am moved by your post Michael, thank you
Dear Christina, funny today I read again a quote by Glennon Doyle on her fb page, which is helping me with my feeling of needing approval: “The most revolutionary thing a woman can do is not ask permission — and then not explain herself” Not always possible, I know… ie. at the workplace…. I really enjoy your posts, Palm ????
