Day 1

Every Day Is a Celebration

Timeless Wisdom: There are a multitude of reasons to celebrate. Each day is as monumental as any other. We have tremendous opportunities to speak out, give rise to harmony in moments of conflict, set the record straight, and spearhead campaigns of conscious forgiveness, mindful rejuvenation, and awakened celebration. Every day can be filled to overflowing with gratitude. May we take notice, and whisper a simple thank you with each step. Every minute equals 60 chances an hour. In a 24-hour period we have 1,440 opportunities to demonstrate our gratitude.

Expression: What are ways that you celebrate your life? Create a plan for a celebration filled to overflowing with gratitude for your favorite people and ways to have fun.

Today is filled with gratitude for your favorite people and enjoyments.

Day 2

Take Flight

Timeless Wisdom: There are infinite creative possibilities in every moment. Our days are filled with explorative intersections. Upon waking from a deep slumber, we are human beings slipping from our cocoons and exploring the opportunities of the new day. Like butterflies, we might take flight in any direction. Let's just say, sleep is a purification ceremony and an act of forgiveness and reconnection. Wakefulness is a spiritual emergence, a birth of new life. It is ours to investigate and research every new possibility. We each awaken to our greatness of personal character, attitude and disposition. Use every ounce of courage you have to spread your wings and fly!

Expression: Close your eyes and realize that you have wings to fly in new directions. Write down the things you want to fly toward, and give yourself time to think about them.

Acknowledge your thankfulness in how you learned to fly.

Day 3

A Child's Heart

Timeless Wisdom: There are no fences or limits on magical enlightenment in an original mind. May we gift every child the freedom to express the infinite wisdom he or she came to this planet with. Let the child within each of us slow down enough to truly examine each repeated belief we claim as ours. It may be time to clear our thoughts of old patterns and listen to our deepest wisdom from a childlike heart. Releasing habitual beliefs of fear and restriction handed to us awakens the freedom to celebrate and desire to express our own convictions.

Expression: Is every belief or opinion you were taught an authentic feeling or truth for you? Do the miraculous today. Release yourself from a habit and write about it.

Your inner child will show you what it is most thankful for.

Day 4

Special Gifts

Timeless Wisdom: Clear thinking requires training. First we learn what other people think. They teach us and we grow up believing they're right. Then we discover on our own that we are not in harmony with their teachings. Our personal journey is finding our truest purpose, being authentic, and allowing our individuality to express its realness. May we live our own truth and accept the diverse paths of others. Let us realize that each person has a personal gift that we are all destined to express and share. It is our daily choice to live in harmony, balance and grace in our diversified universe.

Expression: Create a list of what you discovered as your gifts of authentic expression. Write how you might share them with others.

Feel gratitude for all you have discovered.

Day 5

Destiny's Decision

Timeless Wisdom: Destiny, free will, and the decisions we choose move us through life, create a magnetic field around us, and perceive the road in front of us. Often we do things or we manage choices that distract us from our true destiny. Many times we are crashing, colliding, leaving things behind, or backtracking to figure out why things didn't go the way we wanted. Within each of us is an internal pace, personal rhythm, and honest groove. May we seek to coordinate our actions with our intimate natural being in full color. Mother Earth's truest character is to gracefully contain all living things. Our human contributions are in alignment with our own destiny and Mother Earth's truth as we balance in her gifts and joyfully trip the light fantastic.

Expression: Take a few minutes to gather your thoughts about destiny. Write what a balanced scenario between yourself and Mother Nature feels like to you.

Allow your destiny to contribute to Mother Nature with appreciation.

Day 6

An Exceptional Life

Timeless Wisdom: Each new day is an opportunity to envision or recreate our circumstances into a flourishing, more vibrant life. There is room for being extraordinary within whom we have become and where we conceive ourselves to live, work and play. We continue expanding our visionary skills to embrace positive self-worth, excellent health, nourishing relationships, fulfilling work, and wholesome environments. Each of us is fashioned of star qualities, and we possess the power to design an exceptional life just because we are.

Expression: Make a list of your personal talents and gifts. Read them aloud and send the energy of each into your atmosphere, claiming its power.

Let yourself be thankful for your natural star qualities.

Day 7

Thanks for the Memories

Timeless Wisdom: Giving rise to freedom and moving forward often requires looking back. In a brisk wind we tend to put our head down, tuck it under, and drag the burdens with us. What if we take a minute to turn around, say "thank you" to the memories we are hanging onto, lay them down at the side of the road we are traveling to lighten our load, and face the future with much less baggage? Every memory is a jumping off place to a new future. With a breath and a smile, thank your memories for the lessons they brought and the dreams they inspired.

Expression: Think about a challenging time in your life, say "thank you", and choose to let it go. Write a letter to yourself describing how you are leaving your past behind and taking steps in the direction of your envisioned future.

Celebrate your memories and their gifts with gratitude.

Day 8

Shifting Perception

Timeless Wisdom: From our point of observation on a clear day, each of us will view the world from an individual perspective. Even having seen what is right in front of us, we are undecided about what may actually be there. From one millisecond to the next, there is change. Within our thoughts, there is resistance to a possibility of looking through a different lens and witnessing molecular movement. In the most infinitesimal radiant looking glass, we may only see what our limited mind experience can accept as real in this moment. May we remind ourselves that continual shifts in perception occur to stretch beyond our mind's current observation, and to consider what may be yet unknown.

Expression: Notice an idea that frequently crosses your mind. Write an affirmation expanding your belief of this idea and a purpose for it to grow into potentiality.

Let your mind's expansiveness bring you gratitude.

Day 9

Just Be

Timeless Wisdom: When we hold too tightly to our position, we are often left with nothing. Life around us is moving swiftly; one day we are in the know, and the next, the known has jumped to somewhere unknown. Our inner truth is simple, stable, self- assured, and eternal. We often believe the ego personality is our truest identity. We may invest great effort into proving this to be factual. We claim an identity and create an image until the rug gets pulled out from under us. The soul never has to prove a thing. May we courageously come out of hiding, fearlessly be our truest selves, and confidently give others the opportunity and comfort to be their honest selves when around us. Realize the gift of being.

Expression: Connect with your sense of being. Write, draw or create a collage that demonstrates your truest sense of being.

Give thanks for your own understanding of who you truly are.

Day 10

Seat of Our Pants

Timeless Wisdom: Sometimes we can't tell if we are coming or going and life is too short to get upset about much of anything. Mostly we are flying by the seat of our pants down a road that takes us out to the universe. On a moon's roundabout, we travel through cycles until an ocean's tide tugs our knickers into a twist. We can't forget to smile when we hear the bells jingle on the ice cream truck and watch for the mud puddles at the end of the day. We surely remembered to bring our work gloves, our waders, and a shovel. No telling whom else we might meet along the way.

Expression: Explore how you may be moving through life by the seat of your pants. Write about what this experience has taught you.

Feel your gratitude for flying by the seat of your pants.

Day 11

Sunlight Gratitude

Timeless Wisdom: We stand with open arms in the warm rays of the sun. As a daily ritual, we gather energy through our feet from Mother Earth, and from the sun's illumination, as much as we can contain. We feel grateful as our vital life force fills to the point of overflowing. We know we must be discerning in how we use this universal power. Our intentions along the path determine our giving, as well as our receiving. Let us radiate and illuminate as we give generously and invite others to receive our gifts.

Expression: Silently stand in the sunlight for a few minutes. Feel the energy from earth and sky, and let your body collect the vibrational power. Write about these feelings.

Invoke your thankfulness for the natural elements of our universe.

Day 12

Time Merges

Timeless Wisdom: The beginning of time intimately knows the end of time. They meet as they complete the circle and merge into one state: timelessness. Only when one season disappears do we realize there is and has always been enough time. A continuation of movement in a circle of no beginning and no end is our truest rhythmic discovery. All motion is in the present. May we merge our points of separation into the wholeness of one harmoniously balanced being.

Expression: Envision yourself holding one end of a rope in your left hand, and your family members encircling you holding a part of the same rope. Clasping the rope's other end in your right hand, visualize yourself as both the beginning and the end of the circle. Draw this image and your feelings about it.

Feel gratitude knowing you are the beginning and end of your life's circle.

Day 13

Always Enough

Timeless Wisdom: There is a ray of hope, an enlightened moment between each obstacle placed so strategically along our path. Our soul's journey into an unknown world becomes known the minute our heart begins to welcome our innate greatness and wholeness. Greatness is naturally ours from birth. We are enough, we have enough, every step is enough, and every smile is enough. Our soul's journey is exactly right. Even in adversity we can handle it. We are fully equipped for every step on destiny's path.

Expression: Meditate on your soul's journey and realize you are always enough. Write, draw or simply doodle all the ways that you are enough.

Choose an experience today to appreciate being enough.

Day 14

Love Portal

Timeless Wisdom: We all came from people who experienced unconditional love in a cosmic doorway. Each of us has the ability to walk through these passageways to receive the love that is available; yet, often we are too afraid to step through the opening. We choose to remain stuck in what we know and what we have, and find ourselves in the quicksand of discomfort. Suffering and struggle are all too familiar, and they create pain and heartache. It takes one decision, one step, and one choice to let go of the past and move forward toward our destiny. Let us choose to love ourselves unconditionally, and forgive all past emotional attachments and addictions. We can invoke the cosmic portal to entice us to step fully into our lightness of being.

Expression: Think about how you feel when you connect with your family lineage, both known and unknown. Let your mind drift among them and feel their support. Create a drawing, collage or your family tree.

Whisper thankful words for the love that created you.

Day 15

Own Tune

Timeless Wisdom: In our own rhythm, we glide or stroll from one event to another. We often go along with a crowd, find ourselves in an unnatural flow, and wake up in someone else's concept of life. A scale of notes on a page may prompt us to write our own music, to dance to our favorite tunes, and to sing our original song. In the moments of our days let us remind ourselves to hum a few bars of our own melody and sing the chorus of our truest self.

Expression: Think about the music that runs through your head and ask yourself what is special about that particular piece of music. Write about how it relates to you and if it reflects your true being.

Express gratitude for the music you sincerely enjoy.

Day 16

Step In

Timeless Wisdom: Along our path from birth to death there will be a secret door for each of us. It waits to be discovered. The portal often appears when we least expect it and feels like a miracle. A hidden entrance to our truest journey could materialize on a crowded street, behind a worn-out barn, adjacent to a mountain trail, or right in our own backyard. We must read between the lines, be ready and courageous, and have the will to be fully conscious without turning back. There are no do overs. When the sun sets it is done. Be ready when the doorway opens and step in with both feet.

Expression: Look back over your life and see if there were moments of openings or passageways to your inner journey. Did you wonder about them, walk away from them, or walk through them? Act them out physically, and then write about them.

Feel grateful for the moments when you can read between the lines.

Day 17

Measureless Boundaries

Timeless Wisdom: There are paper-thin lines between the worlds as we travel on the wind. A human soul moves through circumstance of half-broken and oftentimes unexpected splits in ethereal realities. Decades of ancestors drift amid the heard and unheard, whispering stories we may have forgotten. Our totems, spirit guides, deities and angels reach through a veil to prompt us at the crossroads, drop a book from a shelf in front of us, or motivate a person to say a meaningful word. We are not alone. We must set clear intentions while measureless space travels light years through the Milky Way into the Earth's atmosphere to manifest our aspirations. Listen closely to wisdom passing by, speak clearly, and walk fearlessly with grace while traversing the cosmos without boundaries.

Expression: Write about a time when you felt half-broken. Call upon your spirit helpers and ask for courage to accept that you are complete and whole in every way. Write about your new chosen thoughts and feelings.

Be grateful for change and your courage to go with the flow.

Day 18

Nothing Stays the Same

Timeless Wisdom: On a road less traveled, where it appears there may not be much happening, it turned out to be a glorious night of tightrope walking over a rainbow. We are sure to take an umbrella because, of course, anything could change in an instant. The laws of nature dictate that nothing stays the same. What was true yesterday was nowhere to be found today. For sure, what came around today won't even take the time to show up tomorrow. Dance with the unexpected and celebrate the opportunity for change.

Expression: Write about the changes that have occurred in your life. Accept and embrace all that has brought you to this moment in life, to this latest version of you. Skip, jump, laugh and yell, "Hallelujah"!

Hallelujah is a multitude of thankful jubilations. Bring it on!

Day 19

Ebb and Flow

Timeless Wisdom: The more determined we are to hold onto our attachments and our limited thinking, the more challenging the world feels. The universe is constantly changing with or without our opinions or approvals. The harder we dig in, the more stuck we become. May we go with the ebb and flow, and be in the present moment when and where the opportunities show up. Let us dance gracefully through life's flowing current.

Expression: Examine your attachment to a person, object, job or location with loving-kindness toward yourself, and what you feel attached to. Write about why you feel it is special to you. Dance gracefully around the emotions. Choose to keep its specialness or use the energy to create who you are becoming.

Dance gracefully in a circle of gratitude.
