Let the dreams begin....

opening...
expanding...
allowing...
the dreams
to begin.

Today, I am aware to let the dreams begin....Some times you just have to let yourself have your joy...your desires...your deepest secrets allowed to come true, if only for a moment....Some times you just have to allow yourself to open up and expand on those dreams....Today, I am letting the dreams begin...to flow outward...Starting from the center and working there way in there various shapes and patterns...Knowing that the happiness that they will bring my way is within my reach...Today, I am aware of letting the dreams begin....once again.

with faith...
to a
brighter side.

Today,I am seeing a brighter side in all that is happening around me....I have faith in things to come...I feel open...I feel present. Lately I have been aware of being lost in fear...I have let that creep into my life more than I care to admit...But, today, I feel a brighter side...I release my misgivings...I look forward...For with this brighter side I can see that there is nothing I can not do to make my dreams come true.

opening up...

opening up...
allowing
myself
to
trust.

Today, I am aware of opening up....of reestablishing a sense of trust with myself...At times I find it easier to block or bury my feeling....but today, in the quiet of this morning I am realizing that there are days when nothing makes sense to me...and yet, there are also days like today, when I begin to better understand what it is that I am feeling and what direction those feelings are taking me. Today, I open up more to some of the feelings I have been having...allowing myself to listen to my inner voice and follow the wisdom of my growth and strength...Today, as I open up I am reminded to trust....trust myself... allow myself room for all feelings...and believe that all that I feel will bring me to a place of peace eventually....as long as I start from the inside out.

within the quiet...

relax...
nurture...
grow...
focus...
with
gratitude...
within
the quiet.

Today, I am aware to be quiet....to truly enjoy my morning ritual of affirmations without moving to fast...I sense both the darkness and the color that surrounds me. So today, I am making a point to pay attention to the quiet....to feel the colors...I let down my guard...I nurture myself with dreams...with new growth...with quiet time. I focus on the gratitude...I relax within myself.
I access my own contentment...I forget for these moments of what is unfolding in the darkness and I see and feel the calming colors of my quiet.

energy fields...a reflection...

i am
restored
and strengthened
by my
energy fields...

Today, I am aware that all the fields that surround me are full of energy...Some old thoughts...some new thoughts...this energy restores and strengthens me as long as I allow it to...I can be pulled into the negative thoughts or I can allow the energy to take me to the positive things around me...Today, I am aware of the energy fields and I am feeling lighter...I am letting go of old energy and bringing in new...Today, these energy fields bring me a feeling of peace.
As I reflect on my week I am aware that I have been preparing for today....I have been holding on to a positive vision despite obstacles...I have been overwhelmed at times and have been working on restoring my balance...I have listened as my thoughts unfolded around me while centering myself with gratitude...and I have seen the patterns and the colors that have made up my energy in all the different variations. Today, as I reflect on this week I have learned that the energy has been bringing me here...to this day...to this awareness...to these feelings.

different...
variations.

Today, I am aware of the variations of things in my life....that even though I think things look the same ...they are different and unique...the patterns may swirl one way for one thing...and yet totally another way for another thing...the color may be the same at first but hues soon become apparent...I am aware today, that one must have variety in life...that no single thing or experience allows us to grow and be complete...that it takes variations in life...in creativity...in love...in ideas...in thoughts. Today, I am aware that in order to grow...in order to take care of myself better I must look at all the variations from the inside out....

Today I am aware of the many thoughts that are floating around in my head...some I struggle with...some I want to control...others I like to look at...It seems as if lately I have a series of questions before me...some I can answer quickly and honestly from my heart...others no matter how hard I try I can not...but through all of them I feel a pull of gratitude...a sense that I will be provided with answers in time...I am aware of all these thoughts today, and know that I am doing all that I can and that I must just let go of wanting an outcome and trust that life will continue to unfold around me...and that I will continue to listen from the inside out.

Daily.

Today, I am aware of how I have been listening to my inner self daily....I have been spinning with questions...listening to answers....uncovering new emotions...discovering new found wisdom...I have become so comfortable with this ritual of quiet time that I provide for myself...this time where it has nothing to do with anyone but me....Today, I am aware of how much I have come to count on this daily time for myself....
As I reflect on this week I am aware of the messages that have been brought my way....I am aware of the change that is taking place from black and white into color and know that this is just the beginning of things to come....I am aware that some of the webs of confusion that surround me, are giving way to gratitude and love...dreams and truth...I have been having soft flowing dreams of newness...and the layers of happiness have been revealed to me....Today, as I reflect on this week...I am discovering more and more the importance of my daily rituals...and I give thanks for them.

I am aware of that feeling today, I am aware of the transformation taking place within me...around me...bursting open...budding and blooming all at the same time...There is an excitement in that feeling...and a fear that goes along with it also...Feeling that the path to my dreams are being discovered a little more...feeling that I am comfortable here...feeling that even though things may not turn out exactly as I see them right now, I am taking steps...I am feeling the change ....I am allowing myself to embrace them...makes today..just the beginning of things to come.

breaking open
my seeds
of wisdom.

Today, I am aware of breaking open...opening my seeds of wisdom...blossoming and growing...seeing an opportunity to learn...to listen...to be aware. As I experience this breaking open I am also aware that there is still more growing to do...more things to learn...and I am becoming more comfortable each day with myself and my seeds of wisdom.
As I reflect on this week I am aware of all the wisdom that has been surrounding me...intellectual ...emotional...creative...physical...I am aware that I have been collecting the seeds of wisdom...preparing them...nurturing them to allow myself to hear them...to see them grow. I have been feeling confident and creative...expressing myself as I awaken to these words of wisdom from within.

Quietly...and at times loudly I have been hearing the words my heart speaks to me...examining my self...my creativity...my life...Gently...lovingly...hearing. Going deep within the layers...scraping off ...turning over...and seeing different things that have been bringing me to this day...till I finally reach my gratitude.
