Each Day Is A New Beginning

I am trying to live each day "in the moment" and be mindful of how I am living my life. My goal is to become the most authentic, true version of myself that God created me to be.

This is my motivation text for the second half of May:

Okay with what is

When you find it difficult to move forward, that’s okay. Allow it to be what it is, and allow yourself to do what you can.

When you feel disappointed, let it be okay. Feel the disappointment, ...
I am trying to live each day "in the moment" and be mindful of how I am living my life. My goal is to become the most authentic, true version of myself that God created me to be.

This is my motivation text for the second half of May:

Okay with what is

When you find it difficult to move forward, that’s okay. Allow it to be what it is, and allow yourself to do what you can.

When you feel disappointed, let it be okay. Feel the disappointment, and then you can choose to let it go and to move beyond it.

Don’t waste your energy denying what has happened or getting yourself upset about it. Instead, put your energy to positive use by finding, and working to fulfill, the best possibilities.

There’s no good reason to spend a lot of time complaining about what got you into a difficult situation. That merely keeps you stuck where you are.

The first step in moving forward is to stop looking backwards. Stop wishing that things had been different and start working to make things a whole lot better.

Be okay with what is, and be positive and creative in making good things from it. Remind yourself that each situation is a starting point from which you can work to create meaningful value.

WOW. Since I was a very little girl, not sure quite how to put it, but I've been one of the most open minded skeptics....That would take too long to explain here. So, I won't. I will do much more research, thinking, and praying, about that website. I do love much of the work the Fransiscans do, however, I'm not partial to reverse psychology. And how very odd, since I've been doing some lightweight research around Powhattan, that his 'habit' bears some resemblance to the fransiscan 'logo' on the page. As far as Fr. Rohr's views, I rather disagree with the 'bottom' of the Practical aspects. And as far as the page's view and the right margin 'discernment' website, these are relative as to interpretation of the word, if in the literal physical or the figurative spiritual, is it not? Just some notes on my 'thunk abouts'. But I do thank you, I do not want my mind to close to new possibilities and will give this further thought. Interesting how Franciscan seems to border with some of the Salvatorian views...

Thank you! Hope your day is beautiful and blessed!

Yep, I heard there were some guys once who tried to put God in a 'box' but then kept arguing and fightin about who got to keep the box until God made sure they kinda misplaced that box.... like "children you must play nice with the toys or not at all" :)

Cultivating Patience - you and me both, Sweetie!

With God's help, and our Blessed Mother's intercession, you can do exactly what He wishes you to do in the situation.
