I hope this post finds you well. I am well but seem to be a bit forgetful! Yesterday I drove into the city to go to the dentist for a crown on my tooth. Perhaps it was my tiredness, but i forgot that this morning I had a LIVE Art & Soul Creation time, in my FaceBook group, at 10 am!! D'oh!! Thank goodness this past Saturday's LIVE was what I was going to cover today! So I informed everyone to watch that. However, I feel bad for missing the event.
For today's #WednesdayWins is a lovely aspiration (saying) from Thich Nhat Hanh's Making Space that I am 'reading' on Audible. I fell in love with this beautiful blessing when I heard it for the first time...and the second time..and... It is rather long, thus the reason I didn't recite it on the video! Here is the beautiful aspiration:
May I be peaceful, happy and light in my body and spirit. May she be peaceful, happy and light in her body and spirit. May he be peaceful, happy and light in his body and spirit. May they be peaceful, happy and light in their body and spirit.
May I be safe and free from injury. May she be safe and free from injury. May he be safe and free from injury. May they be safe and free from injury.
May I be free from anger, affliction, fear and anxiety. May she be free from anger, affliction, fear and anxiety. May he be free from anger, affliction, fear and anxiety. May they be free from anger, affliction, fear and anxiety.
May I learn to look at myself with the eyes of understanding and love. May she learn to look at herself with the eyes of understanding and love. May he learn to look at himself with the eyes of understanding and love. May they learn to look at themselves with the eyes of understanding and love.
May I be able to recognize and touch the seeds of joy and happiness in myself. May she be able to recognize and touch the seeds of joy and happiness in herself. May he be able to recognize and touch the seeds of joy and happiness in himself. May they be able to recognize and touch the seeds of joy and happiness in themselves.
May I learn to identify and see the sources of anger, craving and delusion in myself. May she learn to identify and see the sources of anger, craving and delusion in herself. May he learn to identify and see the sources of anger, craving and delusion in himself. May they learn to identify and see the sources of anger, craving and delusion in themselves.
May I know how to nourish the seeds of joy in myself everyday. May you know how to nourish the seeds of joy in yourself everyday. May we know how to nourish the seeds of joy in ourself everyday.
May I be able to live fresh, solid and free. May you be able to live fresh, solid and free. May we be able to live fresh, solid and free.
May I be free from attachment and aversion but not be indifferent. May you be free from attachment and aversion but not be indifferent. May we be free from attachment and aversion but not be indifferent.
Isn't it lovely? I think it would be a wonderful way to start the day.
