Change that develops over time and has a chance to settle into body, mind, and spirit with unshakable certainty is good change indeed. Change that happens spontaneously may lead to needing a second chance to more firmly implant. Either way, when change comes knocking, embrace it with gratitude and give thanks for the opportunity it affords to begin anew.

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

Nature shows how change happens, sometimes slowly, in the gradual unfolding of a new leaf, a new flower, a new life, and sometimes abruptly, in a sudden avalanche or a mighty oak’s fall. Learn from nature’s way how change can enter a life and change it slowly or abruptly. Expect change. Expect change that is good. Expect the letting go of something that no longer works or has meaning and the birth of something new that is far more appropriate. With gratitude expect good, nurturing change.

With the best intentions begin the day. Let your own inner light rise with the morning sun and bring it forth with the spirit of your intent to have a day of wonder, beauty and gratitude. For all you are naturally granted, the ability to experience a new day and to be open to what may come, be thankful. There is so much going on in the world to worry about, but for this moment count your blessings and start the day on the right foot, setting it down on your true path of heart, the one you find yourself on this day.

Sending you love,

Trust that you have within you everything you need to form a life, that you have the strength, the perseverance, the knowledge and wisdom that will attract all that you need to create your own destiny. And then, once you trust yourself, express gratitude for the life you are in, for the simple pleasure of sunlight on a cold day, the song of a bird heralding spring, the stars looking down on you at night. Be grateful for what is, and be grateful for what is to surely come.

Sending you love,
The Soul Sisters, Jan & Jeanne
