Stay Awake.

In my short time on earth, I have come to realize when I am “awake” I have the opportunity to experience life. Please stay awake. I am not talking about avoiding sleep; sleep deprivation over a long period of time can be dangerous. I am talking about in your day-to-day life, please stay aware to all that is coming into your experience.

When I am awake, aware, and conscious to Life, I get to truly experience life. The good, bad, and indifferent. The deep experiences I have today allow me to feel and know true gratitude. Where is this true in your life? Where are you grateful for being engaged in life? Today please stay awake, and help us stay awake here at CYLF.

Whisper of Gratitude.

I heard a story that in some cultures it is believed that if you catch a butterfly, whisper your deepest desires to it, and let it go; that wish will come true. The butterfly will be so grateful that it is free, it will express those dreams to the Universe regardless of its inability to speak.

Today I have a two fold challenge for you. First, the longings that you have in your heart right now, whisper, or better yet yell them out to the Universe with a grateful heart. Second, when you encounter someone who whispers their dreams to you, hold those thoughts in your heart with so much gratitude that they have no choice but to be realized.

I am Thankful for a Divine Guidance!!!

Our ability to choose rightly is always based on the information we have at our disposal. When we get good information, we can make good choices.

Today I make choices based on the direction of divine guidance. With Faith, I have access to infinite wisdom and knowledge. As I ask to be guided in every situation, I make great choices for my life and my world.

I am illuminated by divine guidance, and I make the best choices!!!

I am thankful for this moment!!!

Life is so busy that I could use an extra hour each day! In reality, the simplest way to make time expand for me is to appreciate and enjoy the present moment.

If, at any time I feel rushed today, I’ll simply close my eyes and say, “Thank you Life for this moment.” Time has an elastic quality to it. I know that fear, worry and apprehension have a way of making time condense, while appreciation and enjoyment help time expand.

Thank you Life for this and every moment, and for all the time I need to do what is mine to do.

What Is: I am Thankful for the Way It Is!!!

Today I give thanks for “the way it is.” I let go of the need for life to be better or different. I believe in the power of the universe. I believe that as the world turns my life will continue on flowing and if I stop trying to make it the way I think it should be the better and better things get.

My soul is great enough to accept life the way it is, without any changes.

Thank you life for this miracle I am living in!!!

Mystery: I am Thankful for Mystery!!!

Do I know what is going to happen today? Do I know if all of my plans are going to occur the way they are in my mind? The answer is “No; I really don’t know what is going to happen today.” It can be very frightening or exciting to experience the mystery of every new day.

Today I acknowledge that the universe is in charge of my life, and I can trust the world to bless me in ways that are beyond my expectation. I am thankful for unexpected good. I am thankful for the mysteries of life. I am thankful that I don’t need to know what is going to happen next.

Character: I am Thankful for Character!!!

Today I stand for what I believe. Because I value my reputation, I refrain from gossiping about another’s. Because I value my own possessions, I refrain from taking even a paper clip that does not belong to me. Because I believe in Honesty, I speak with loving honesty towards others. Because I enjoy the help of others, I’m the first to offer my assistance.

Character is being able to consistently stand for what I believe. When I can stand for my beliefs in the little situations of my life, it becomes easier to stand for the difficult ones. Today I give thanks that I am building a life of character through every action I take.

Nature: I am Thankful for Nature!!!

Nature can be a powerful reminder of the activity of God. In the movement of the sky, the changing of the seasons, or in the beauty of a sunset, I can see God at work. Even when nature seems dormant, there is still activity going on to prepare for the new life that will come in the spring.

Today I will spend some time in nature. T may go for a walk and see movement of nature all around me, and take time to truly appreciate the power of nature. Today I will stop to recognize that the same Spirit of God that moves through nature moves through me.

People: I am Thankful for people!!!

What would our world be like without people? It is hard to imagine living without the people I love and on whom I depend. What would it be like not to have the people who entertain, inspire, educate and even annoy me from time to time?

Today I simply say, “Thank you life, for everyone.” Today I thank the world for strangers, co-workers, loved ones, people on whom I depend, and even people who annoy me. As I give thanks, I realize that each person is truly a blessing.

Forgiveness: I am thankful for the power to forgive!!!

Today I celebrate the power to forgive. Today everyone is forgiven for everything they have ever done. Through the power of thankful living, I realize how incredibly blessed I am, so I want to give a gift to the world. My gift is that everyone is forgiven. No matter what they have done, I forgive them. As I give the gift of forgiveness, I am set free.

Forgiveness also applies to me. I am forgiven for everything thing that I have done that has harmed another. I am forgiven for every little thing and every big thing. Today, I celebrate forgiveness and I am set free.
