How do I want to feel today?

How do I want to be today?

What do I want to receive today?

What do I want to give today?

Intention

What I know for sure is intention is everything.

How do I want to feel? Radiant. Vibrant. Strong. Free. All of this rolled into one loving woman.

Being not Doing

How do I want to be? Loving, kind, gentle, respectful to myself and others.

That means taking a pause before I raise my voice.

That means saying a blessing in the car before I begin the morning commute.

I will be a container of light for the kids in my classroom.

The give and take of life

More often than not, what I give is really what I want to receive.

What drives me crazy is the same thing I want, on some level.

My go-to gift is to have a conversation without any agenda. No fixing, no judging, no ingratiating. And yes, I would love to be able to just have a conversation and be heard.

What I crave is what I give.

What I crave is the same as everyone else. I want to be heard, noticed, and to know that I matter and make a difference.

Be Specific

I am very specific — I mean it is 4 questions in the course of one shower. We are talking 15 minutes tops! Unless it is the day I deep condition my hair then it might be 20.

I want to feel vibrant as I answer kids questions and extend the understanding I also want for myself.

or

I want to feel radiant as I walk in the sunshine.

Wait, that was only 2 questions answered. And that’s ok because Grace is a wonderful thing to give and receive everyday. The offering of grace and love is always a great start.
