Daily Question, September 3

What kinds of visible and invisible help would help me to live more wholeheartedly?

  • Angie

    Accepting life as it is right now. Accepting people, including myself, as we are at the present. Not insisting that life or people change for me. Learning to be grateful for the light and shadow parts of life.

    Looking for the beauty in all things. Actively seeking the good in everything you see everyday. Meditation, prayer to God, the Universe, the Higher Self .. being actively involved in the present moment; knowing that anything past this present moment is not guaranteed.

    I think being willing to fully experience emotions, both "positive" and "negative," would help with this. Since I went through a particularly tough time a few years ago, I learned to repress emotions, but I am learning to undo that by having the courage to feel. Also, I could take delight in the small pleasures of life, remembering to enjoy the car ride, love the run, and smell the flowers.

Also, I could take delight in the small pleasures of life, remembering to enjoy the car ride, love the run, and smell the flowers. I could also view my growth in knowledge as a process of enlightenment and initiation that is exciting and an opportunity to have an unusual experience, especially since I have prayed for wisdom and trust in God to provide an adventurous experience of growth and initiation into secret mysteries long hidden.

    Having practices like generosity, gratefulness, meditation, and watching my mind and how it is acting/reacting is what helps me most. .

    wholeheartedly in action is passion, effort, kindness, love, empathy. daily prayer/meditation/breathing/positive thinking invitee invisible “help”, strength & calmness. reading, watching, observing, listening are visible “helps” towards living wholeheartedly.

    Like the thought of the day and the photo actually suggest, I need friends and others around me to help support me during this challenging time.
    I love the photos of the dog holding the other dogs tail! Sometimes we need to be able to have others hold us during times of crisis! When my son or a friend hugs me or touches me I feel like I know I'm going to be ok. The " this too will pass. " comes flooding into my body.

    Like the thought of the day and the photo actually suggest, I need friends and others around me to help support me during this challenging time.
    I love the photos of the dog holding the other dogs tail! Sometimes we need to be able to have others hold us during times of crisis! When my son or a friend hugs me or touches me I feel like I know I’m going to be ok. The ” this too will pass. ” comes flooding into my body.
    I also need to be a friend to myself by using wisdom and listening. My inner being knows what’s best. I’m able love whole wholeheartedly by slowing down and opening up to what life is showing me.
    Living whole heartedly when I have fear and sometimes feel like a danger zone!
    But my current challenge is to slow it all down when I’m right in the think or that hot scary freak place.
    It’s right there in that moment that I must learn to remember!
    Remember what? Remember to love through he heart. Stop in the.rawness of it all and become aware.
    Wake up and tip into the watcher, the one inside who knows. This is where being a friend to yourself lives. Beiness is always with us, it’s me who falls asleep with what ever wave comes my way and distracts me.
    I can live wholeheartedly by tapping into the truth and love always available in me by being awake.
    Play the ball whereever it’s dropped. Love and compassion will be my guide.
