Reflect and Radiate

Reflect and Radiate by SIMPLE STEPS

When you are ready to focus on a more peaceful state of mind... a more peaceful life... consider that when we look in a mirror we see our physical body.  When we look back at our life so far we see where we’ve been.  In these we see what we choose to see.  

If however we look deep into our soul we can sense the person that we came here to be.  A hint of what is waiting for us to experience, to become, to shine our light onto this world.  

Try one of these Simple Steps when you know it is your time to find peace:

  • Find that peaceful location where you can be alone with your thoughts.  Close your eyes and visualize your energy emanating outward and bathing everything you see in love.
  • Enter a meeting, a family gathering, your church, your home with a smile on your face.  In your smile radiate the kindness and cooperation that you seek.  What you radiate is reflected.
  • Place a small mirror in front of you as you talk on the telephone.  Observe  your smile and let it shine on everyone you speak with. 

As we see others, we see ourself.  Choose to reflect what you hope for yourself... kindness, grace, compassion and love.  And as you do you radiate the energy that leads with love.

Peace on Earth...Goodwill to All

It is at this time of the year that we are reminded that peace and goodwill are more than words.  Whether it is the spirit of the holidays or the knowledge that so many others are in need...  our instincts to help another are more acute in December.

Regardless of the external factors in life that might be moderating holiday celebrations...  there is the opportunity to do more this year... not by giving things but by giving of our time.

Today's Simple Step...  Reach out to help another.  In every city there is soup kitchen that could use an extra set of hands.  There are pets in shelters who could use some play time or a walk.  Around the neighborhood there are seniors who could use some help shoveling their driveway or walk...  or a ride to the grocery store.  Make this holiday about helping another.  Whether it is family, friends or strangers give of yourself. 

The cost is zero...the blessings... priceless.  Spread Peace on Earth and Goodwill to All.
