LISA ZUERCHER'S DAILY THOUGHT
Try it on for size – self-love, compassion, forgiveness – and find within the wondrous you the power to take another step, the essence of bliss, and the manifestation of divine providence. It’s all there for your adventure, for your pleasure, for your embracing.
“…Rise, pick up you stretcher, and go home. He rose and went home.” – Matthew 9:6-7
Rise, rise up dear friends, dear creation. Rise up. Walk with a contemplative heart. Observe your self-talk. What are you saying? Are you speaking kind and loving thoughts? Are you showering yourself with compassion? You are of no use to others unless you first learn to accept yourself, love yourself, forgive yourself, and have compassion for yourself.
Each tiny step to self-awareness leads to the road of Self Awareness. The first change in movement or thought will affect the energy within and around you. Take up one act of kindness for yourself and allow this act of kindness to wash over you and cleanse your spirit.
Stop for a moment to smell a rose, observe a sunrise or sunset, feed your body nourishing food and drink, write a love letter to yourself or to someone else, rest, read a good book, unplug the phone and computer.
Just stop for a moment (or more), rise up and treat yourself to what you deserve – Kindness and Self Care.
"LOVE, what will it take for love to conquer the evil doings of others? What will it take indeed? What I do know is that hate will not solve issues, will not heal hurts, and will not allow tolerance and acceptance to bloom. Let’s not add to the problem. Let’s show someone, a creature, yourself love today." - Lisa Zuercher
