Express some gratitude today. Find something to be grateful for. No matter the circumstances of your present life, there is always something to be grateful for. Perhaps someone smiled at you. Maybe you found a penny on the sidewalk or you heard the cheery song of a bird. Maybe you are just happy to be alive, to be able to take a deep breath. Maybe you have someone in your life that you are grateful for, even someone who doesn’t know it. Once you start thinking about it, you might find that there’s a lot to be grateful for. Fill your mind with gratitude today, one thought at a time, rather than thinking about what’s wrong in your life, or in the world. Give yourself the gift of gratitude.

All our love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

It’s not every day that you get to thank someone. Why not just be thankful every day, even without someone else to express thanks to? Why not just be grateful every day too? A life filled with gratitude and thanks is a rich life indeed. Being able to say thank you is a gift. Being able to express gratitude is another gift. From your heart, both of these words can be expressed to yourself, within yourself, as well as to others. With thanks and gratitude nothing will ever seem impossible, nothing will ever appear to be too much. Try saying them a little bit more each day. Thank you and I am grateful!

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Stand your ground and with determination that is unbending continue upon your path of change no matter the affairs of others or the affairs of the greater world. All things are set to change. It is a natural law. You have already changed so much and have an incredible amount of change still to enact in your personal world, in your body, and in your mind. It’s never-ending. Your part of the changing process is best attended to by your frame of mind, your attitude and your outlook on the future. Keeping a cheerful frame of mind, a grateful attitude and a positive outlook on the future will enhance the journey so that you will be affected only minimally by what is going on outside of you, for you will have the secret, that the human spirit is stronger than anything outside of it.

Sending you love,

Keep the word gratitude uppermost in your mind. At dawn’s awakening call it forth and recall all that you have gratitude for. At noon’s high sun ask again to remember where gratitude has a place in your life. At day’s end pull up once again the pictures of gratitude in your mind’s eye. And finally, as you rest your head upon your pillow express once again the gratitude for a beautiful day lived and another to come. With gratitude, begin each day with a skip in your step and eagerness in your heart, for how can you not have gratitude for the simplest and most wonderfully satisfying of things, for life itself!

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne

Look how long you’ve been incubating, how long in the same state with only minimal progress, how minute and tiny any change has been. Infuse yourself with a dose of attitude today, something that will shift you into a more productive phase, away from the usual day and night of just making it through to the next day. A new attitude will do you wonders and kick you out of incubation into real life. Give it a try!

Sending you love,
