How is it this cut flower, detached from its roots, has the capacity to re-grow itself, to expand in a new form, and when it seems to be at the end of its existence is capable of new life?

How to Feel Good
Never stop believing in the goodness of others.
Response-Able
I am whole.
I am complete.
I am not waiting for anything.
I am aware of all that is going on inside and all around me.
There is choice at the base of my every action.
I am powerful and free.
I am responsible.
I am response-ABLE.
Taste
Body still.
Mind tethered to the breath.
Ahhh…the sweet taste of peace in my heart.
A little bite will do
A cake baked rich and full calls us to dive in. Taste buds perk up, enzymes dance with anticipation, the whole body awakens to receive the treat. In one bite everything else around fades away…thoughts, senses, feelings all tie into this moment. There is a full sense of aliveness, of nourishment, of awareness and special connection in knowing that this bite can never be duplicated and would never need to be. This bite fills the space of needing anything else. At one in this moment with this sustenance, we know it is enough. That is all we need to feel complete, full, satisfied.
Each moment in life is like that bite of cake, so rich, so filling, and completely satisfying when we are aware, when we allow ourselves to be fully consumed and to fully consume the deliciousness.
Fly Freely
The waters span wide. The air open and clear. We fly in a world of abundance yet so often we swirl in competition for the perfect bite. Jockeying for our place in the sun. Diving deep for what feeds us with such reckless abandon. But, when we soar gently on the currents of the air, watch intently for the tell-tale shadow that slides below the glistening surface of the water, in that moment the abundance shines clearly …soaring and diving, not in fear of what others might take from us, rather in knowing there is plenty and we can in every moment be freely and completely fed.
Curiously Waxing
Life follows patterns like the phases of the moon – some moments rich and full, some waxing or waning. As we flow through each moment of life, we can feel joy and know beauty. We can also welcome pain and even sorrow. For we know that each night the moon changes and each moment we change…into something curiously new.
Behind the shades of darkness that cause us to wax or to wane, there is a great fullness to who we are. Whether veiled and barely noticeable or opulently shining, the moon is always full.
Marvel at the light of the full moon. Feel its majestic power. Be awed by that same divine fullness that shines in you.
