The miracle of everyday life

Miracles come when they are least expected. 
Life is funny, it's full of ups and downs, twists and turns. Just when everything gets gloomy, it shows it self in its truest brightest light. That small sliver of light glistening through as the gray clouds slowly begin to part. The light of hope. To have hope is to be patient and allow God to be in control. 
Given time, everything comes together as it should. The universe has it's own plan, we are asked to be active participants as well as to allow it to just "happen". These are the little miracles of life. Miracles are all around us. Miracles happen every day. We struggle so much to make everything perfect,  but instead we should be just looking out for these miracles and allowing them to be. Just like a flower who shoots forward, in the middle of an early frosty spring not knowing any better, but just being. Sometimes we just have to have the patience, and hope to believe in miracles and allow life to just happen.

The gratitude of the heart

I begin each day with a grateful heart. I smile & take a deep breath. 
-Thank your heart for beating. How many times have we woken up in the morning and have taken for granted how this great body that we have is just steadily working for us? Today I am thanking my heart for doing such a good job. I am taking a deep breath and putting a smile on my face and filling my heart with gratitude. Gratitude does the heart good. 
When I am grateful I tend to see the good things in my life and the goodness in other people. My perspective is better, and I am also more resilient. I am more open to the peace and the love that surround me every day. The love that comes from the heart is the shield that I choose to protect me from the realities of life. 
I choose to love every day because love is amazing, love is everlasting, and it is love that makes the world of this girl go around.
