this is a new day
i am a new me
every single day offers us unlimited possibilities
to do something we've always wanted to do
to achieve something we never thought possible
or to simply enjoy the day quietly from the comfort of our sacred spaces
every day we are presented with the opportunity to begin again...
"each morning we are born again,
what we do today is what matters most."
-buddha
check out this awesome post by the fabulous dancing mermaid
i think her post is so on the spot when she says that we could so benefit from chosing a mantra or affirmation that we actually believe in and can work with. no sense putting ourselves down and repeating words that don't have truth within our hearts... sometimes rearranging a word or two can make a word of a difference in how you see an affirmation and how it resonates within your being.
and now this is me playing catch up with this week and last week's mantra monday contributors!!! thanks you two for playing with me!!! if you've created a mantra card and want to share it with us, leave me a comment in the comment section below with the link to your mantra monday post!!! yiipppeeee!!!
here is sema with her super fabulous mantra for this week where she combines two of my favorite things... mantras and mandalas!!! hee hee!!! and her affirmation for the week before, which i find is such an important one, enjoying the doing and the way of getting to our goals... enjoying the process. yay mantra magic!!! thank you sema!!!
and the wonderfully talented serena presents us with a very awesome mantra for this week - seeing and choosing joy in our everyday moments... and her mantra card for last week really touched me, as i have for as long as i can remember struggled with the feeling that i wasn't making a "big enough" difference in the world... as you might have read in this post as well as others. this card by serena reminds me that we truly can make a positive difference just by being ourselves and never underestimating the small gestures... thank YOU serena!!! such a beautiful mantra to keep close to our hearts!!!
