TODAY'S TOUCHSTONE


"Be happy for this moment. This moment is your life."
                    ~ Omar Khayyam

Let's focus on happiness today. And joy. Gratefulness and goodness too.

We can choose to be grateful for this day, this moment, and for all we have regardless of what hurts and what we don't have. We can be appreciative and experience joy, regardless of any and all challenges we face.

Consider what Anne Frank wrote in her diary:  

"Whoever is happy will make others happy too."

Another reason for us to be happy: Our joy uplifts others. Many people in many places all around the world need comfort, support, and encouragement now. Many would benefit by being touched by joy and by all the highest, brightest, warmest energies. We matter. What we think, feel, and do matters

Let's consider another thing that Anne Frank wrote.  

"And finally I twist my heart round again, so that the bad is on the outside and the good is on the inside, and keep on trying to find a way of becoming what I would so like to be..."

Let's keep on trying to be who we long to be, who we know ourselves to be when all hate and fear is removed, who we truly are. 

With love and hope,
Charlene

JOY: May it keep your heart open and filled with light. 

LOVE: It will grow each time you give it away.

HOPE:  Through each passage and season may you trust the goodness of life.
