remaining open....a reflection

remaining open to...
growth...
dreams...
adventures...
thoughts...
feelings...
love.

Today, I am aware to remain open...not allowing myself to close up....close off...
Today, I am aware that nothing is ever simply black and white...there are so many variables that go into any given situation...that each of us has our story...and that no two are alike even though they might stand side by side.
Today, I remain open to new growth...new dreams...new adventures...new thoughts...new feelings...new creativity...new love.
Today, I am aware to remain open and see all that surrounds me.

As I reflect on this week...I am aware of connecting to my words with honesty. That I have been gentle with myself as I rock back and forth...side to side with emotion. That I make sure to turn things over to see the richness and texture of what is underneath. I am aware of building bridges to safely hold me as I step forward. To softly observe and separate the past...present and future in order to chase any blues away that might stop me from learning to fly.

PS: What can you do today to be aware to remain open to all your possibilities?

PPSS: As you reflect on your week may you be gentle with yourself as you step forward to fly.

chasing away...

observing...
separating..
past...
present...
future...
to
chase away
the
blues.

Today, I am chasing away the blues...separating the thoughts and the feelings...observing the past...present...future.
Today, I am chasing away the blues...detaching from the stream of negatives...pulling from the center of gratitude.
Today, I am chasing away the blues to focus on the dreams...love...creativity that lies in my center...pulling me inward and pushing me outward.
Artfully Yours,
Pattie

PS: How can you chase away your blues?

bridges...

bridges
anchored between
here and there
safely allowing
me to
step forward.

Today, I am building bridges...bridges made from knowledge...faith...belief...hope...love. Bridges that allow me to feel safe when I leap between the "here" and the "there". Bridges that allow me to trust myself as my inner voice carries me across gaps into different territory.
Today, I am building bridges...knowing that I can fly...dream...create...And even though I may fear a fall, my bridges of faith allow me to leap....allow me to learn to fly forward toward my dreams.
Artfully Yours,
Pattie

PS: Today, can you build a bridge of faith that will allow you to leap into one of your dreams?

underneath...

turning over...
pulling...
peeling...
to find
richness...
texture...
feelings.

Today, I am looking underneath...instead of just scanning the surface....I am turning things over.
Getting past the familiar...looking for a fuller response....pulling...peeling away layers. Looking for new perspectives...seeing new facts...finding new feelings...new beliefs. Asking myself questions that have yet to be answered...
Today, I am looking underneath...revealing the layers and patterns that are there...seeking a new richness and texture instead of just scanning the surface.
Artfully Yours,
Pattie

PS: What do you find when you look underneath the situation instead of just scanning the surface?

gentle motion....

forward...
backward...
side to side...
gentle motion
leading me
to myself.

Today, I gently feel the swaying motion...the swinging...the right/left..the good/bad...the in/out.
Today, I gently feel the two sides...my heart in the middle. Gently I feel the motions...gently I try to find the balance...the middle...looking and watching the movements...the whispers...the internal message.
Today, I gently feel the swaying motion...forward...backward...side to side...circular motions...
opening up to energy...love...creativity...joy...happiness.
Today, I gently feel the motion as I step back into my routine...step back into my self...my thoughts...allowing me to see and understand my self better...allowing me to see new dreams.
Today, I gently feel the swaying motion.
Artfully Yours,
Pattie

PS: As you go about your day can you allow yourself to feel your gentle motion, that shows you all sides and allows you to be more of who you are?

honest look...a reflection

connecting...
honestly...
to
words...
actions...
emotions...
truth.

Today, I take an honest look....an honest look at my actions and reactions.
Today, I take an honest look...at how I have made situations...ignored situations...continued situations...
Today, I take an honest look...at my role without judgment...looking at my behavior...looking at my patterns...
Today, I take an honest look...at my truth...openly connecting with words...actions...emotions.
Both positive and negative...flaws and dreams.
Today, I take an honest look....to discover and see more of my true self.

As I reflect on this week I am very aware of re-emerging....of slowly allowing myself to remember what it feels like to float ...to flow...to release.
As I reflect on this week I am very aware of trying to stay centered...truthful...and open to myself ...to my thoughts...to my center.
Artfully Yours,
Pattie

PS: As you reflect on your week...can you see and feel the honest lessons before you?

floating...

rising...
changing...
resolving...
learning...
floating...

Today, I am floating...rising above situations of my own making that I wish to change...As I float I see new opportunities...I feel a new resolve...I feel open ...creative...positive.
Today, I am floating...I see my story before me...past and present...I see new dreams in the making...I release some negative feelings and allow myself to begin to change...I am learning...I have many choices.
Today, I am floating...rising above...shifting...swirling...knowing that I am allowing myself to change...to enter into a new beginning....
Today, I am floating...from the inside out.
Artfully Yours,
Pattie

PS: Will you allow yourself to float with change today?
