"There are so many things we are capable of, that we could be or do. The potentialities are so great that we never, any of us, are more than one-fourth fulfilled." - Katherine Anne Porter, journalist, writer, and political activist
This is so true for me. I'm amazed at how much there is to do out there in the world. I have such a full life and yet there are so many things I want to try and do before my time here is done. It's very exciting.
It all has to do with believing in myself. I sometimes forget that I have everything I need to accomplish my goals today. Every day I start off by asking my Higher Power to give me the strength, compassion, and wisdom I'm going to need for that one day. I have faith that God always gives me everything I need for that one day. Then I move my feet, take action, and enjoy everything that comes my way - the good and the bad. Every experience I have adds to my spiritual growth. I'm either witnessing behaviors that I want to emulate or behaviors that I don't want to repeat. I believe that everyone is a child of God so I send love to everyone no matter what in order to help them through their day. They don't have to know that this is what I'm doing - I know. It may seem strange; I'm not always able to do it perfectly each day; but it's a great way to keep my focus on what is the most powerful force in life - LOVE.
I don't want to make it sound as if I'm at peace 100% of the time. I'm just beginning to learn how to live this way each day. It's a journey for me and I'm having a wonderful time as I blossom into the loving child of God that I was meant to be. Life is not always a bed of roses and I can really make a mess of things at times. But I know what direction I'm moving in now and that's all I need to know in order to keep making progress. May we all continue to make progress with God's love to support us.
