“The aim of life is to live, and to live means to be aware, joyously, drunkenly, serenely, divinely aware.”
― Henry Miller
“For it is in giving that we receive,
It is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.”
― St. Francis of Assisi
There are moments of clarity that occasionally come through the noise of daily life, and paying attention to these and acting on them can be defining moments. How many times did an idea seem to come to you from nowhere, and it was interesting and something that you felt you could do, and then you never acted on it? When we are fortunate to get these moments of divine inspiration, having enough trust to do something about it could mean the difference between living your purpose or regretting what could have been.
Scaling Mount Everest – At 11:30 a.m. 67 years ago today on May 29, 1953, Edmund Hillary of New Zealand and Tenzing Norgay, a Sherpa of Nepal, become the first explorers to conquer Mount Everest. It was an event that many thought was impossible, and it has inspired thousands of others to attempt it themselves. It’s estimated that more than 300 have died trying to climb the unforgiving terrain.
Why do people want to do it? Most of them say “because it is there.” If the desire is strong enough in you, it must be put into action.
Trust Yourself – There is a lot of interesting energy in the world right now, so if you have been feeling a little emotional or angry for no reason, you aren’t alone. It’s a good time to tune into your lower three chakras – the root, sacral and solar plexus – and send healing thoughts to the area from just above your belly button down to the tailbone. With everything that is going on, our need to feel secure and safe is being challenged. It’s okay not to feel okay right now so be patient with yourself and others. It’s just the energy of 2020 and it will pass.
Thought of the Day – Pay attention to hunches and intuition right now. It could lead you exactly in the direction you need to go. Just remember – sometimes where you need to go isn’t always where you would like to be, but it is necessary for growth and for fulfilling your purpose. Trust in the inner wisdom that is always guiding you.
Have a productive, soothing day.
“Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.”
― Aristotle
