Grit, Grace & Gratitude
Ingredients for #Practicing Gentleness
“Times been a bit tough lately, my dear?” I know. Me too.
Come on in. Sit a spell with me. “Are you comfy?” “Can I get you anything? Coffee, tea, a listening ear or a shoulder to cry on?”
I want to share something special with you.
“Why?” you ask.
“Because you, my darling, deserve a break. A time-out. A moment of escaping the worries, anxieties, and fear that edge out your hopes, dreams, and wishes.”
Today, I want you to remember who you are and to forget when life told you that you were wrong.
Follow me for a few moments to the portal of your strength.
Breathe in — the warmth of the sun
Breathe out — the coldness of your thoughts
Breathe in — the soft ocean breeze
Breathe out — the turbulent storms of the past
Breathe in — the silent calming voice of intuition
Breathe out — the negative chatter in your head
