Overlooked Blessings

Faith. Faith in a Spirit possessing greater strength, wisdom, power, and love than you do. Faith in the ultimate goodness of life. Faith in yourself. Faith that as you seek, you will find.

The dream that will not die because you were born to love it into full being.

Answered prayers.

The kindness of strangers.

The warmth and security of home. Crossing the threshold and closing the door after a hard day.

Expressions of unconditional love and support.

Your health. The health of those you love.

That moment of relief when you realize that the pain has subsided.

A job that provides steady income while you pursue your dreams.

Feeling the presence of Spirit in your life.

Sinking into a warm, softly scented bath after a stressful day.

The aroma of something delicious wafting from the kitchen.

Not having to cook tonight.

Your boundless imagination.

When hope is restored.

Following your intuition and being delighted that you did.

Daydreams. Reveries. Textured, Technicolor nightscapes of happiness and good fortune that have you awakened with a smile.

Twelve hours uninterrupted sleep.

Breakfast in bed.

Serenity as you pay bills.

Acceptance after truggle.

Seeing him or her and having your heart heart skip a beat.

Seeing him or her and finally feeling nothing.

Completely and utterly surrendering to what is and then waiting unexpectantly for the good that is to come.

An afternoon to do as you please.

Doing a great job and having it and your efforts appreciated.

Holding your child in your arms.

Delighting in other people's children.

Witnessing the birth of new life.

The times when your ideas "clicked" with others".

The fragrance of a vacation day.

The beach. The feel of the sand beneath your feet, the salty breeze, the warming rays of the sun.

A walk in the woods and becoming aware of life all around you.

Trying something new and loving it.

The desire for knowledge.

Two hours in a wonderful bookshop.

Waking up early enough to watch the sun rise with a cup of tea or coffee.

Watching the sunset.

Meeting a kindred spirit.

Meeting your soul mate and recognizing that you have known each other before.

(To be continued.........)
