Day 334 of 2021- Giving Tuesday

 Giving Tuesday was established in 2012 as a day that encourages people to do good and be generous. A lot of people donate to charities and just do other things to give.

So today, even if you don't donate to a charity you can still give by making someone smile, helping someone or give some of what you have to others (like clothes, toys etc).

Being generous makes you feel good so start today if you have not already. Give and smile.

Hope you have a great day giving.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 332 of 2021-Another week

 Good Sunday evening! Another Thanksgiving holiday over and now its time to prepare for Christmas but first we need to get through the next few weeks. 

I am sure some of you are probably dreading to go back to work next week. Well a lot of us are in the feeling that the holiday went by so fast and now its time to travel back and get ready for Monday.

Take deep breathes and remember that you can still have gratitude no matter what. Be grateful that the holiday was great and now you get to start another week. 

Focus on keeping the gratitude and it will definitely help to get you through anything. Every moment is breathtaking if you think it is. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 330 of 2021-Waiting for?

 Good Friday morning! There are so many people out and about who were waiting for black Friday sales to get their shopping done. 

Friends, there is about 5 weeks left for your personal goals. Don't wait anymore. There is no special deal or sales or time like the now. The time to start something for you. Don't wait for any special day since it will never come. 

Everyday from here on out is special so go and get started.

Hope you enjoy this long weekend if you are off.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 329 of 2021- Happy Thanksgiving

 HAPPY THANKSGIVING!! 

Give thanks not just for today but for everyday. Gratitude should be a way and an attitude of life . We constantly need to remind ourselves of all the good cause if you look there is still a lot of good and a lot to be grateful for. 

Giving thanks also is not just saying thanks. Its truly a feeling. 

Feel today from your heart and give thanks. I am so grateful for so many things that it is hard to express them all here but today I will let the most important people in my life know how grateful I am.

Have a great time where ever and whoever you are with today. 

Wishing you peace, love and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 328 of 2021- All about Gratitude

 Happy Pre Thanksgiving!

Ernest Hemingway once said:

"Now is not time to think of what you do not have. Think of what you can do with what". 

Focus on all the blessings of your life. Don't think of lack, think abundance. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 327 of 2021- Be thankful everyday

 I know its not Thanksgiving yet, but be thankful everyday. Its hard to do that when you are struggling and dealing with pain but you can still be thankful that you are waking up everyday.

Know that no matter what your pain is, what your struggle is, you will get through to the other side someday. May not be today or tomorrow or anytime soon but you will get there. 

Be grateful of who you are becoming.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 325 of 2021- Get ready for the week

 Happy Sunday, Hopefully this is a short week for you with the Thanksgiving break. Take sometime today to prepare for this week especially if you are hosting or visiting family for holiday. 

When I say prepare, I am sure you know the "what or how" you need to do if you are hosting or even visiting but I am referring more to the self care and being.

It will be a busy week for sure so plan out to build sometime for yourself to chill and de stress. Take the time to work on self care and do the things that you would like to do. Now more than ever start building in that habit of self care. It can be a nice walk, exercising, reading or even going to the spa. Do what fills your cup. 

So use today and plan for your self care for next week. Mark it on your calendar and follow through with it. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace

Day 324 of 2021- Make it a great weekend

 Happy Saturday! Hope you are enjoying the weekend. With only about 5 weeks left in 2021, make it the best weekends you have had. 

Friends, 2022 is going to be here before you know it so make the most of the last few weekends that you have. Plan something fun every weekend and especially this time of the year, there are so many things and activities that you can do. 

Make the most of this holiday season and just smile, laugh and have a good time. Leave all the week stresses behind and just have fun. This time won't come back again so get out there and have a blast. I hope that when you look back next year at this time, you will remember all the good times. 

So get out there, put on your holiday sweaters, play holiday music and have a great time. 

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace

Day 323 of 2021- Friday's Quote

 Happy Friday! You made it through another week. Maybe try to take off work early so you can relax. Don't forget to take a deep breathe once the work day is done and just let it go.

Warren Buffet once said:

"Someone's sitting in the shade today because someone planted a tree a long time ago".

It goes to show that the choices we make today can have a long term effect. We may need to make sacrifices now so we enjoy our hard work later. 

Remember that as you go about your day and as you make decisions.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 322 of 2021- Changed my mind

 Good Afternoon/Evening! Or morning depending on where you are. 

Sometimes you want to do something and other times you don't. You are allowed to change your mind. I did that today since I really did not feel like doing the thing that I said yes to. I may have even disappointed a friend, but I am allowed to change my mind. 

If you change your mind on something, look to see why it changed and why you had said yes. What new piece of information do you have or did not have that made you change your mind. 

Know that it is okay to change minds and it happens all the time. It's okay to feel bad but move on. It happens and as long as you are staying true to yourself and not beating yourself up then its all good. Staying true to you is the most important. 

Have a great evening!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 321 of 2021-Almost to the end of day

 Good Afternoon to you all or at least it is where I am. So hope everyone is getting ready to wrap up the day. Its been full of ups and downs but then again isn't it always that way. 

So for your something to remember or ponder over, day to day life is always full of ups and downs. Its never easy and not always a straight road. Nevertheless, we eventually get to the end of the day and we do deal with the ups and downs. 

So no matter what, remember that the end of the day will always come. It may seem long, uneasy and just plain old hard but we will get to 5:00pm eventually. 

Remember that you are loved and enough just the way you are.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Sunday is always a great day to reflect and recharge. Listen to your body and give it what it needs. If you are tired nap, if you are feeling hungry eat something wholesome. The idea is to truly listen to what you need and to give yourself that love.

Day 317 of 2021-Saturday quote

 Good Early Saturday morning or evening depending on where you are. Up again early and probably had about 5 hours of sleep last night. Needless to say, this will be a day of napping.

I came across this quote from Cher:

"If grass can grow cement, love can find you at every time in your life".

A key ingredient needed is to care and to stay open. Today and going forward, no matter what stay open. You never know when love will find you.

Have a great Saturday!

Day 310 of 2021-Make it a fun weekend

 Good early Saturday morning! Any fun plans this weekend? I always look forward to spending time with kids and just relaxing although I do have to work for a little this morning which is never fun to do on a weekend but it is what it is. 

Sometimes you just have to make it fun and plan for it. Weekends are for chilling but make sure you build in something fun to do. It can be going to the movies, planning a family game or cooking together. I usually am so tired by the time Friday rolls around that even planning for something on the weekend sounds tiring but its not since the fun actually energizes me.

It all about the things that you want to do on a weekend that are fun and bring joy to you. Especially with the holidays coming up, there are so many fun things that you can do and plan for. Pick activities that will energize you and bring a smile on your face. 

So have fun this weekend and make the most of it. Monday will be here soon enough.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 308 of 2021-Another great quote

 Its so interesting when you come across quotes that are in a way a message that you need to listen to. I came across this one:

J.R.R. Tolkien: "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us".

Its so fitting with everything that I have been writing and thinking about. We do not have that much time left till the end of the year so decide what you want to do and go for it. 

Hope you are having a good week so far!

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 307 of 2021- Hump day

 Happy Hump day! Made it through mid week. Its pretty chilly where I am but somehow given the time of the year it is, I am actually doing okay with it. Now come January and February, I will likely be miserable. Something about the holidays coming up and liking the cold at the same time. 

So have you started to think about Thanksgiving weekend? I have and we usually spend it with family. It's always nice to see and be with them. I am really looking forward to just unplugging from work.

What are your plans? Start thinking about it now if you haven't already. To me this is the most wonderful time of the year so maybe that's another reason why I am not minding the really chilly morning.

Make sure you find time to really unplug and relax. No matter what your plans, build in sometime to yourself to relax and unwind this upcoming Thanksgiving holiday. 

Start planning now so you don't loose sight of it.

Well, enjoy the rest of your day and we are almost to the end of the week friends. Hang in there.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Day 306 of 2021-Empty page

 Hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday! Its chilly and rainy where I am so hope that you are having better weather where you are. 

I read this quote from Jack Kerouac: "I saw my life was a vast glowing empty page and I could do anything I wanted".

All of our lives are a empty page and there is still so much that needs to be written. Use the next couple of months to write what you like for 2021. There is still time so don't think that the year is done and you can't start anything new. 

Now is the time. Use the empty page and fill it up for the next 2 months.

Wishing you peace and happiness from my heart to yours!

Peace
