Gratitude.

"Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for tomorrow." -Melodie Beattie

The great river of abundance has been flowing through my life recently, and I am sitting in all the delicious beauty of gratitude. This, not only feels like the deepest way to accept the abundance that comes, but also the way to keep it flowing. I have realized recently, that in the past, the river of abundance has almost frightened me. It almost became too much at times, that I jumped out of the river, and watched it all flow by without me.

What I'm getting today is that I deserve to let it flow through me, we ALL do, and it WANTS to! This is the way of life, this the flow and the rhythm of our world. And I'm learning how to sit in constant gratitude for what I receive, feeling the beautiful relationship and exchange of giver and receiver, and allowing more of it to come. As my friend Josh titled his new film, "happythankyoumoreplease," I've come to use this as my mantra :)

I've also been seeing my life as an open road. I have been imagining every day, that my life is a clear open road, and at the end is this beautiful golden light. Each day, I move closer to that light, which is the light of my soul and love being expressed fully, and where I can move through this world with much lighter steps, and more able to give of my light and my love. And then again, another light will appear at the end of another open road.

These past two years have been rich with lessons, hardships and successes, losses and gains, change, growth, movement....transformation. I feel as if I'm on the verge of things just finally clicking into place, an upshift being engaged and my wings spreading out further to fly.

And this is my wish for all beings.

To evolve, grow, change, so as to cause an impact on our world, making it a yummy, loving, peaceful, beautiful place to live. And I don't mean you have to stop everything and commit yourself to saving the planet or ending world hunger - although, if you feel so called, by all means! - but rather its the inward journey that reflects outward, allowing you to hear your own unique calling and BE LOVE in your life.

Its simple, really. And I believe we're getting it. And I believe it starts with Love and it starts with Gratitude. And we're all doing a great job as we move through this era of transformation together. So remember to smile, and say thank you...and more please!

Love is being grateful for and allowing the great River of Abundance to flow through you!

In Love.

in the moment I held you,
I could feel everywhere you've been
and everywhere you're going.

we lived a whole lifetime together,
in that moment,
in love,
whole & complete.

love is: opening your heart to infinity.
