We must try every day to keep ourselves open to seeing and recieving the gifts that life has placed on our paths. When we are too distracted with shiny things and fancy technology that says "look at me Im what life is all about" or too consumed with our emotions and disappointments and with watching our wounds fester we walk right past these gifts. Or we stumble on them, and curse that damn thing that was in our way without taking notice of what it was.
When we walk around with our heads in the clouds or soend our time looking back on places and times we have already been we fail to notice what is being offered.
Everything we need in our lives will be provided to us in time.
But many things are lost or forgotten about or misunderstood.
If we take the time to involve ourselves in our own lives, to observe the path we walk upon we can see these things for what they are and reap their rewards.
How many times have we passed opportunities by without noticing and found ourselves wishing we had something that we could have had then.
How many times have we failed to see the sign posts on our path only to discover at some later point that we are lost and wandering?

Take the time to look, feel, smell, and to learn. If we dont we are running around in circles with no purpose.
Recognise the rains for what they are. Watch what grows after they cease to fall.
The gifts you seek will never be found on someone elses path or on your own while you stagger on blindly.

Feel...sit and feel the love around you.
Go out and listen to nature, become one with it. Shut out all the noise of society long enough to hear your own voice remind you of your truths and to guide you.
Then when you return you will carry immense wisdom with you. Keep that voice close because it will never lie to you, it will never betray you. It will tell you when the gifts are there for the taking.

Love yourselves friends. There is no greater feeling.


Much love.

FunkyMonkey Reviewed by FunkyMonkey on . Much Love Today the sun seems brighter and warmer upon my back and upon my face. It chases the darkness into hiding. The air is fresher and each breath feels more invigorating, energizing every cell of my being. The breeze caresses my skin and strokes my hair. It dances with the grass and the leaves on the trees. The birds songs are sweeter and flow into my soul, sharing with me the love they have for the day. The earth beneath my feet is cool and soft and each step feels as though I float. Each step Rating: 5
