There are days when we forget to practice gratitude. Let us not forget the moments when life flows easily, when we roll with resistance, when we swim with the tide, when life is handed to us. There are times when we can show the most gratitude for the little things in life. Gratitude is an action, a conscious effort in thought. With practice, gratitude can become a part of one's existence.
Today I rested in gratitude. I relished in the physical health, as a result of balancing hard work and rest. The body is amazing; it tells you when it is finished. But the mind can disagree and push oneself beyond a person's capacity until it is worn down, burned out, and exhausted. Today's lesson is to rest in the idea that you have completed enough. You are enough. The mantra of the day is recited as, "I am enough." These are powerful words of wisdom. Let your mind do the thinking, the mouth do the talking, and the body do the walking, flowing with life. There is no need to run on a spinning hamster wheel, fretting about what tomorrow will bring. Tomorrow will come in its own time, in its own way because time will always be there. As we travel from today into tomorrow, let us think of how we can be grateful for each moment as it passes. Just for a second, an instant, we can rest in knowing that all we have is the here and now. Relish in the moment and be grateful for its passing. As the next moment arrives, taste it, feel it, think it. And the next moment, and so on...
