Day 8: 40 Day Grace Journey

via Day 8: Knowing Your Value Changes Your Behaviour

Good Morning friends. I’m tired this morning.  We are still puppy training and night time is the worse.  She’s pretty good during the day….now we have to be trained at night to help her.  The joys of puppies.  🙂

Today’s post left me with more questions about myself.   It’s weird.  Some of the reminders are good and some are just downright icky!  Anyway….I hope you can get something out of it…and if not…maybe you will just get questions to mull over in your mind.  Those are good too esp if they have you looking within yourself and asking the right questions.

You are loved…you are valued.  Have a super day!  The pic I am sharing today is one I took this morning. Gotta love myself a sunrise!

A revolutionary idea:  what if we reject what we think/are told we are supposed to look like and learn to love ourselves as we are?

Day 28: My Perfect Day

Now I feel like I should make a list of all things that would make my day perfect. Well, if there is one thing that I don’t do, that is answer questions in obvious ways. 🙂 The way I see it, why would I make up my mind today what a perfect day is? My Massey dog has to wear the cone of shame and he keeps trying to scratch him off and I keep having to do it up; my husband is away for the weekend and I am quite dependent on him in a lot of ways…..can today still be a perfect day despite these setbacks for me? If I have a quota, they can’t. If I live in the moment and I try to live out of who I am in Christ, then today can be a perfect day.

I used to try and imagine the perfect day. There were times I would think my perfect day was time away from my kids…that didn’t work. I missed them too much. There were times I would think my perfect day was time away from my whole family. I missed them too much though the times I did do that, they were pretty needed. That didn’t make it a perfect day though.

I’d like to imagine a perfect day in a tiny home, writing. The problem with that is focus ( more like a lack of focus). A full day of writing would not happen here. How about a perfect day being you do whatever you want, whenever you want. That sounds kind of selfish.  I need to take care of someone or something.

What I would like is for today to be my perfect day. The day that I live TODAY. Even if my circumstances SUCK. To some it up for me, a perfect day is a day that I can look back on and say

– I did the best I could with what I had.

– I learned something new today

– I did the next best thing no matter how small it was

– I am alive, therefore my purpose is still alive.

– I am loved!

Do you have a perfect day friend? Never feel bad or selfish because you answer a question different than I do. Remember, this is my blog so I talk a lot about me. It gets kind of old for me. 🙂

Have a super duper perfect day! If you want to read some really great uplifting quotes, google Winnie the Pooh quotes. Oh my heart! I loves you!

I loves you, friend!  ❤
