Todays thoughts:
Become sensitive to the quiet pulls on your energy, time and emotions.. I am connected to this big, beautiful Universe. Meditate, contemplate, love, laugh, joy. Life is BEAUTIFUL.
“They promise them freedom, but they themselves are slaves of corruption, since people are enslaved to whatever defeats them.”
Listen to the power and message of calmness, patience and growth. Let LITTLE ruffle you. Things work out. Change happens. Life continues to evolve. People change. Know that, always, all is well.
I’m re-reading Melody Beattie’s “Journey to the Heart” for the third time… It is a daily meditation/devotional book that I fell in love with when I first started my bid. I had asked my best friend to send me a meditations book because I was interested in learning the power of meditation. When I first received it I judged a book by its cover because it wasn’t a blueprint to how to meditate… What I didn’t understand was that it was EXACTLY the book I needed to read everyday to open my heart and soul to the innerconnectedness of the Universe, God, and Universal LOVE. What I also didn’t realize at that moment, but realized a few weeks later, was that other best friend’s mom used to sit at the table having coffee in the morning and would have us read that exact book. At the time I first was introduced to the book I was getting heavy back into my addiction of methamphetamine and so while the lessons and devotionals were good to read, they didn’t really penetrate. Sitting in my cell facing 17 years, sober for the first time in 15 years, I started reading this book and it started to click. I am reading it again for the third time because everytime I open it, it speaks to me. It teaches me things that maybe I didn’t grasp the first time around. I am grateful and thankful for this wonderful book that makes me feel alive with every daily meditation I read.
Have a beautiful, blessed day!
