The wish to grow is our yearning for oneness with our source.

We have all had experiences of higher consciousness, when we are attuned with the deeper currents of our lives. We sense that our life is more than pain, struggle, and suffering. Living in joy, freedom, and love is a state of being available to us right now and is only available in the present moment.

Practicing Gratitude daily helps us change our perspective and outlook on life. It brings with it hope, goodness, love, and possibility. It can increase our self esteem and improve our well being. It can open our hearts. Here’s how to start…

We know at some level that we are living a miracle, and the miracle is in us, a part of us, and all around us. The miracle is happening to us and through us. It is the air we breathe and the cells in our bodies. It is our thoughts, feelings, body sensations, our relationships, our projects, our physical constructions, our beliefs, everything. It is the miracle of being alive in this moment right now.

I don’t think I realized how unhappy I had been until I gave myself those words “May I be happy.”
