Making small changes and doing them over and over again is the foundation of how nature works. It is how we arrive at a new season, how we transform from one expression of life to another. It is the building blocks that easy to use, and yet we often choose another path. I continue to do this work on a daily basis because it works.
Day 89: Fireflies, What are you doing today to illuminate your life? How are you sharing your light with others?
What am I doing today to illuminate my life? I started my day with gratitude. When I wake up each morning before I open my eyes I pause to give thanks. Thank you eyes, thank you bed, thank you air conditioner, thank you to the floor, and the list goes on. When I am complete with my thank you's I go into the bathroom and look at myself in the mirror and say good morning to myself and as I am looking into my eyes I say I love myself. I come down the stairs and turn on the jazz music and make a healthy breakfast for my beloved and me. At breakfast my beloved and I do our daily devotions and we give thanks for our breakfast.
Creating this habit and doing it for 21 days was one of the greatest gifts that I have gifted myself. Bringing this habit into my consciousness by repeating it for 40 days has proven to illuminate my life in ways that feel unbelievable at times. However, today I am aware that it is true and it has been created out of a daily habit that I have honored over and over again. When I talk to clients about making small changes in their lives that will add up to the life they want to live. It is activities such as this that I am speaking of. To start my day with gratitude is setting my intention to look for the good in the day. Wow, what a transformation that has been. I could just as easily got up and brought yesterdays baggage into today. Why would I ever choose to do that?
How am I sharing my light with others? I love this question. I share my light where ever I am. This past week I had the honor of standing in the greatness of two amazing women, and allowing them the safe space to dream. I love holding consciousness for others. I love sharing my work Seasons of Change, Love 101, and Spiritual Partnership with the greater community. Yesterday I had the honor to participate in an amazing Reiki Circle sharing healing love with the greater community. This week had the pleasure of delivering two prays well with others t-shirts to new friends that we met at an interfaith service two weeks ago. I love being love.
Love is indeed the absence of fear. Today I know that living in love, doing all that I can to express love at each moment of my life creates a garden filled with love. If I discover any unwanted plants of fear within my garden, I simple bless them, release them, and return them to be recycled into love.
I love you,
Rev Allen
