I have shared a few of my daily blessings from Facebook here. This one from a few days ago, surprisingly seemed to resonate with several people. It is part of an ongoing evolution of a process I started with “Letting Myself Have”.
Blessings Day 275: I wanted to memorize one of Marianne Williamson’s prayers from “Illuminata” but couldn’t, so instead I silently say “thank you, God” many times a day. I started at first to say it when things were all groovy in my world, but now I do the opposite.
A weird thing happens when I affirm my thanks to God, crappy feelings stop their talk while they listen to my little prayer of thanks.
I am afraid of doing “x” on Saturday – thank you God.
So I make up a story why I can’t do “x”; I don’t cop to the truth – thank you God.
I don’t listen to my own advice – thank you, God.
I judge myself – thank you, God.
I judge others – thank you, God.
I had a shitty night’s sleep – thank you, God.
I’m here in the flesh, I’m feeling, I have choices, I’m alive, I’m loved and by some perhaps I’m even appalling and hated, thank you God.
I’m breathing with the warm body of my being, I’m still open —
THANK YOU GOD!
