One of my treasured quotes …

I have some quotes that I keep with me always.  Here is one of them:

The things that move us are the things that reflect what we already believe. That one equals many. That an individual is part of a greater whole. That together we can do great things. That each of us in some way wishes to be, and is, a part of something bigger, something grander, than simply ourselves.

I am going to have some big changes in my life.  I can feel them swirling around me.  All important to my journey.  Some wonderful. Some challenging.  They will happen – regardless of my efforts.  This is true for all of us.  We run through our day but we don’t often stop to think, what’s next? What changes are coming our way?  How can we enjoy this moment?  While I move through these changes …. I don’t do it alone.  I am part of a greater whole.

Regardless of your personal beliefs, it is hard to deny that we are part of the daily fabric of the earth for as long as we are  here.  As we walk through our day, we affect people: the person at the coffee shop, the restaurant, your kids and loved ones.

I would venture to say that it is as if I am stitched on to or attached to a piece of fabric that is attached to another piece, that creates the whole that will be my life … from start to finish.  Life is an amazing and short journey.  We are not alone.  We are part of a greater whole.  Take full advantage of that!

I am thankful for my experiences yesterday (and thank you to my close friend who talked with me last evening).   And, I will be thankful for what comes my way today.

Have a wonderful day!
