TODAY'S TOUCHSTONE



"With the new day comes new strength and new thoughts."              

                  ~ Eleanor Roosevelt

One way to assure new strength in the new day is to give thanks the night before and upon rising.

As Tecumseh said:

"When you rise in the morning, give thanks for the light, for your life, for your strength. Give thanks for your food and for the joy of living."

One way to assure new thoughts is to rise above our ordinary way of thinking, especially about challenges and issues we are experiencing. 

"No problem can be solved from the same level of consciousness that created it, " said Albert Einstein.

With that wisdom in mind, imagine stepping into the gondola of a hot air balloon. As the balloon lifts you above the ground, notice how you begin to perceive things differently. When you reach a floating altitude, you see patterns below and a further horizon line. Your view is expanded. You feel expanded with possibilities and potentials.

As we take this imaginary ride, let's bring our consciousness to greater heights, above the level where problems were created.

Here, may we see connections, commonalities, and creative solutions to any and all "problems" we may be experiencing in our personal lives as well as those we see in the world.  

Wishing you a glorious new day of lifted awareness.

Increased strength and hope too,
Charlene

PS - The opening between the ropes where I step into the gondola is my doorway to life's gifts today.
