Receiving Each Day as an Invitation

Listen To Reading!​

Each new day is a path of wonder, a different invitation. Days are where our lives gradually become visible.

Often it seems that we have to undertake the longest journey to arrive at what has been nearest all along. Mornings rarely find us so astounded at the new day that we are unable to decide between adventures. We take on days with the same conditioned reflex with which we wash and put on our clothes each day. If we could be mindful of how short our time is, we might learn how precious each day is. There are people who will never forget today. [?]

Amen, sistahs! Wonderful blog. Thanks for the link; I'm now a subscriber. I've often said I need to start viewing each new day as my avatar does. Every morning, bright and early, he is enthusiastic and excited just to be here for one more day. Obviously, he is more aware of his gift than I am, but I'm working on it.

Now that spirituality is included in the Health & Wellness thread, why don't y'all start posting there, so I can properly "thank" you. Either way, please keep them coming. your posts.

Each of us is an artist of our days; the greater our integrity and awareness, the more original and creative our time will become.
