The Beauty of the Present Moment: A Reflection on Gratitude

Happy,

The present moment. What a delight you are. When I am with you, I feel so connected to who I really am. You give me so many gifts. I call those gifts my moments; they are sometimes shared with other people. When I am in my "head", I am away from you in such a way that my surroundings feel alien. The thoughts make me anxious and when that happens I remember you. It is that light you extend me with total unconditional love that I come back to you.

I remember you are free to me!

Practicing Gratitude Through Self-Awareness

As we set off on yet another season with our friends, families, and selves, let us practice the art of self-awareness. This also means self love and kindness. Not judging ourselves for all the things our minds create over the next month or so. We are not glued to those thoughts and judgments. They are not us. We are us! We get to practice positive self love. We get to be the observer deep within. Who we are who we choose to be and continue to grow through each present moment.
A collective of moments for us all is a lifetime.

How many moments can you create within a moment?
