know it may seem as thoughtwe need to go along with the flow.
Ir may feel like
family and friends are sweeping you along with their choices.

the fun without the stress.
Stop
expecting what you don’t want!
Stop imagining too
much.
Start feeling the
joy.

love.
When
you are not in the midst of traffic, chaos, shopping and busyness, pause and
take a moment.
What do you
really want to experience?
Begin to imagine how
you can have enough time and energy.
Seek ways to share
your best and forget the rest.
When
at the effect of others’ expectations, we often get caught up in doing what
they want.
When we forget our
highest values, we may neglect giving what we want to share with love.

everyone else does, just because, we may not consider what we want to do.

to stop and say to ourselves, “ What can I do to be happy and at peace?”

What gift is most important to give to those you Love?

your appreciate them?
What can you do to create more joy and appreciation for yourself?
How much money, time and energy do you really want to spend?
If
you are willing, write down what is most important to you.
If you are open, ask
who and how you want to give to others.
If you are
appreciative, how to you want to acknowledge your gratitude?
If you delight in
spending time with others, what is your favorite way to have quality time?
This
is a time to choose what is really right and good and true for you.
Loving each one of
us for living and giving with integrity,
