Spring Blossoms

WORD FOR THE DAY
Never lose an opportunity
of seeing anything that is beautiful;
for beauty is God‘s handwriting –
a wayside sacrament.
Welcome it in every fair face,
in every fair sky,
in every fair flower,
and thank God for it as a cup of blessing.

Living In This Present Moment

WORD FOR THE DAY from Gratefulness.org.

Try pausing right before and right after undertaking a new action,  even something simple like putting a key in a lock to open a door. Such pauses take a brief moment,  yet they have the effect of decompressing time and Centering you.

“Word for the Day” from Gratefulness.org is one of my favorite long-standing daily spiritually-oriented emails. Br. David Steindl-Rast is a gem!

I have a typical over-active Gemini mind. Fortunately, it is tempered by my Rising Virgo and Pisces Moon–thankfully! But, I still need help!!  😉
