WORD FOR THE DAY
Thursday, Aug. 13 (gratefulness.org)

As I express my gratitude,
I become more deeply aware of it.
And the greater my awareness,
the greater my need to express it.
What happens here is a spiraling ascent,
a process of growth in ever expanding
circles around a steady center.

I am so grateful for You Loving Architects here on this site. I had been on a downward spiral after I read about my nephew (almost like a son) getting arrested on serious charges last Wed. Today there have been great loving posts by Cindy, Sharon (Angel Card) and I posted them together on Return to Love, then I got this message: Ho'Oponopono - taking responsibility for all
Karen of Gratitude Power left me this message, when I asked her if I could use Ho'Oponopono on someone who I thought betrayed me?
Hi Ron,
With Ho'Oponopono you take responsibility for the situation whether you felt you caused it or not. Dr. Hew Len explained in his book that total responsibility for life means everything in your life--simply because it is in your life..
If you take responsibility for your life, everything you see, hear, taste, touch or in anyway experience, is your responsibility because it's your life. ( I had to sit with that for awhile, but eventually it made sense)

It's always about the "Self"--when you cleanse the self with I'm sorry, please forgive me, thank you, I love you--it's not about the other person at all--i'ts between you and the divine. When Dr. Hew Len cured a hospital of patients, he never met any of them--but the case came into his life experience and he took responsibility for the experience by cleansing himself with Ho' Oponopono.

All of your experiences live within you--when you shift within, everything automatically shifts around you. One thing that I've tried in relationships is to just think of the person and say to yourself "I love you" over and over again. I find that softens the tension and energy around the situation. In the meantime Ho'Oponpono is always--I'm sorry, Please forgive me, Thank you, I love you--- it's about you---"peace begins with me"
Love and Gratitude

I am grateful for the talent God has given me and the songs he puts in my hearts and on my paper. I am also thankful of all the friends I have made on my long quest. duane lee

Golden Chains of Connections

WORD FOR THE DAY
Sunday, Aug. 9 (gratefulness.org)

Recipients of our appreciation
are apt to express their own
gratitude to others, lengthening
the unending, golden chain of
connections-in-goodness
that stretches across the world.

My dog teaches me about gratitude every day. She also teaches loyalty and unconditional love ;>)

I'm grateful everything does not have to be done at once. I'm grateful to know that I don't know...

I am grateful for the opportuninty to serve others, I am an instrument in this world. I am healthy and able to use my hands and my mind to comfort and heal others as a nurse practitioner, and as a mother, daughter, sister, friend, and lover.
