The 100 Day Reality Challenge

I have been feeling so craptastically overwhelmed at work this morning - so much to do and so many things coming at me right after the other. And honestly, I wasn't doing my best to shift my energy back to calmness, so I kept getting frustrated and overwhelmed and complaining about it all. I generally like to take a short walk around the block a couple times a day just to get out of the office, so I decided now was a good time to do that. I tried to focus on breathing slowly in and out and repeating "I am calm. I am serene." to myself. But then my shoes started rubbing uncomfortably on my feet, so I decided to take a short cut back to the office. Right next to my office building, a gust of wind caused a bunch of leaves to fall from this really pretty tree and then the wind blew them all around this guy that was walking right by it. He didn't seem to like it very much, but I smiled because I LOVE the fall and I LOVE falling leaves. As I walked by the same tree, more wind blew more leaves all around me and it was awesome and beautiful and I loved it! That little act of God really did make me feel calm and serene and happy. Thanks, God!!

We Are One I have always loved animals. I have found joy in being in their presence and love learning from their unconditional love and forgiveness. Sometimes, I do not understand how they can forgive when you think about all they are put through.…
