Corner View--Starting with `L`...


 "Today I will renew myself by letting go of all expectations.  Today I will consider the priorities in my Life.  Today I will know that Love is the only reality.  That Love is the most important priority.  When this truth takes root in my heart I will not be tempted to waste so much time on trivialities.  When this
 truth takes root in my heart I will not be tempted to waste time on the trivial and the banal.  Today I will stake my life on what is timeless.  Today I will be redeemed through Love.  As the Upnishads say, it is not for the sake of the Beloved that I feel Love, but for the sake of the Self.  Today I will put my attention on the self and use this affirmation to crystalize all those that have come before.
I will allow the words to lead me into a state of meditative peace.  I will let the words enter my heart and
 soothe it with my re-assurance.  I will remind myself

In my garden the rose opened but I was too much in a hurry and passed it by.
Love remembered me and said, "I will make a rose bloom in your heart."  Today I will remind myself that my body is the garden of my soul.

 Today I will renew myself by letting go of all expectations.
 Today I will consider the priorities in my life.

Today I will know that
Love



Today I will know that Love is the only reality..."

Beautiful words and photos. Things that we should all remember and set as our priorities. Sorry for you loss, too. It so hurts losing a loved one. May the warm memories bring you peace.

Such a powerful message. I think we all need to repeat this affirmation.

Very touching ...did you do the painting?

Beautiful wods....

Hi and Thanks all♡、
Mezza May, yes, I did the painting. There is a story about the painting, it was a postcard I made a year ago and mailed it in a special `time slip` mailbox. It arrived the other day (a year later) and I had forgotten completely all about it, when I opened the mailbox it was there, and I was holding the flowers that seemed to echo its colours!!

wonderful reminder, and i love the *synchronicity* of when it came through the mail. the "time-slip" mail sounds interesting: you mail stuff to yourself, and it stays on hold until determined?

jgy said...

hi and Yes, Francesca, exactly, you write the date that you want to receive it but of course its like mailing it to the universe because once you mail it its `gone`...the post box was at a museum that was closing (I think I went the last day), so I am not sure if there is still a time slip post box.
I wanted to tell the story about the time slip in the post, but the quote is so long so I left the story out! so its fun to tell bits of it here to any one who visits back here in the wings. Oh, and you could send a letter to anyone in the time slip...
