Listen To Your Inner Voice

Do not look back only look ahead

At all that awaits you

Look at this moment

Feel what you are feeling

Experience this present moment

For you have made a choice

A decision that will steer you

In a new direction

Opportunities will open up to you

Keep your heart open

Trust your instincts

Listen to your inner voice

You have the power

To access your inner wisdom

Listen

Stop

Breathe

Be still

Be quiet

Let your wisdom guide you

On your own personal journey

By listening to your heart

Your soul will be alight

And let you be

All that you are intended to be

The future awaits

With open arms

But it is how you deal with

This present moment

That determines what the future has in store for you

Your actions today will determine your tomorrows

So be present in this moment

To reap the kind of tomorrow you dream about

It has been said since the beginning of time

Ask and you shall receive

And so it is

Know what you want

Ask for it

Dream it

be it

And live it

It is all there for the asking

The Planting Of The Seeds

The journey of life is never a straight path

There will inevitably be detours and stops along the way

The power is within you to make the changes

To discover new horizons along a different path

The key is to have the courage to confront the unknown

Have you hugged someone today?

Sometimes a hug is all one needs. A hug conveys so much more than words. The act of holding someone in a hug strips away barriers that often cannot be voiced in words. I didn't always love hugging people despite growing up in a family where hugs and kisses were frequently given. Everyone hugged and kissed at family gatherings - both when arriving and departing.

I guess I never gave much thought to the value of a hug. The past few weeks I seem to have been hugging many people. Recently it was the anniversary of a friend's son's passing and when I saw my friend I gave her a hug and held her for a long time while she cried. Afterwards she thanked me and remarked that the hug helped. There were others I hugged; a person recently diagnosed with cancer, another who recently lost his job and a friend who I hadn't seen in awhile.

Then yesterday I gave away another much needed hug. A friend's engagement was called off and he came to talk. When I saw him I hugged him for a long time. Initially he pushed me away but I kept holding him. After a few minutes he released from the hug and commented how he really needed that hug.

I thought about how hugs are free and yet so many people have lost the art of hugging. I remember how Princess Diana was so liberal with all her hugs and how she touched so many lives. Hugs are truly so easy to give away, they feel great and I think the more one hugs the easier it gets to give out hugs. Hugging truly is priceless and I believe we all need to start hugging more.

My question to you - have you hugged someone today?

I love hugs. I also appreciate donations to help this blog keep going ~ Karen

The Tree

The leaves of the trees are in full bloom

Despite the heat of the summer

They continue to grow and flourish

All In Your Own Time

Remember each moment

Is as it should be

You need to experience

Those moments

Those times

Be they hours

Each Day Is A Gift

The essence of life is change

And having the ability

To flow through the changes

Life is never constant

But it is in a constant change of flux

Changes spurt growth

Be Still

At day’s end

When darkness enters

And night falls

When the flurry of activities subside

This is the time to be

To be still
