Uplifting, Loving Creator!

Wow!  What a clear, beautiful dawn.  It really amazes me and lifts my spirits to see the dawn brighten in the sky, leaving our valley in silhouette.  It seems such a hopeful light, such a magical part of the day.

I didn’t get any “avoidables” done yesterday, so I’m a bit bummed.  I did my morning writing, and posted the latest Sunrise Pages, but then I didn’t get much else accomplished.

In typical avoidance strategy, I did go out for a run in the afternoon.  I will say that, mentally and physically, I think it was good for me.  And, I did try to set it up so that I could listen to the audio of Martha Beck’s first audio class in the DIY Integrity Cleanse Kit (digital).  But, that didn’t work out, which just left me frustrated.

I got home and showered, and then Joy and I enjoyed the chicken soup.  That turned out really tasty, and I had seconds!

Joy went to bed right after dinner, and I wasted the rest of my night with television.  Such is my pattern with my “avoidables.”

So, as I mentioned yesterday, I am left with these things I wish to do.  Still not done, still not attempted.

And, today’s a work day, so I’ve got that excuse to use, if I avoid taking some of these things on.

I will start something today, Dear One.  That will be my Turtle Step.  So, check back tomorrow.

 

Okay.  Here is a Prompt for Today:

Hopefully, Dear One, you recognize that I, too, get frustrated with myself.  I, too, struggle with execution and follow-through, maybe just like you.

Here’s the thing – for a lot of us, these setbacks and disappointments are hard-wired into us.  We balk; we hesitate.  We avoid.

But, today is a new day, and we can make new effort and intention – to do.

One thing I’ve learned this year is that if I avoid something a bunch of times, but then finally do it – that still gets it done, and I still feel successful in the end.

Sometimes, success is knowing that we make it through today, and that we can try again tomorrow.

 

Trust what you are co-creating with the Universe – keep striving onward, knowing that nothing you do is wasted.  Thank you, Guides!
