The Allure of The Urgent

Dear Wise Ones, 
In the hustle and bustle of our everyday lives we often make choices about what takes center stage in our day and ultimately gets our attention. 
It is incumbent of us to make sure that which appears to be so pressing and urgent does not dominate 
our time, focus and attention,
 if it distracts us from what is most important.  

At the end of the day, that which brings us joy, and renders us the greatest internal rewards in life should be apart of our day in some way every chance we can fit it in. 
 For the urgent call we must make or meeting we must attend or work/business matter that requires our time  in some form or fashion 
will always be present in our life.
 However the question becomes what will we consistently prioritize that will have our undivided attention and focus?
 That which presents itself as urgent is not necessarily what is most important and often is an distraction from us truly investing in the things, matters, relationships, and passions that enhance and affirms our life. 
 Attending to that which appears to be urgent has its place in our life, however it should not be where we consistently direct  our energy and exert our concerted daily efforts.
Whatever truly matter to us requires our time, and focus and ultimately enlarges our life in a meaningful and healthy way. 
"Take a Moment to Consider 
What You Love"
 

I have found that people in our lives that reflect the most beautiful aspects of living are deserving of our time, energy and attention
 as when the dust settles, 
the healthy relationships 
we nurture are where we find the
 greatest rewards.

May you be consistently  intentional with prioritizing that which is most important to you.
May that which is important to you nurture and affirm your life in a abundant way!
May that which you value most make it to
 your daily list of Intentionality!

Abundant Life Affirming Focus To You,

Invisible Miracles

M iraculous O nes , W ho s aid m iracles h ad to o nly b e v isible ? Greetings Miraculous Ones, All miracles are not visible to the eye.  I would even infer that our most life affirming and altering miracles often exist in the invisible. We encounter miracles in the moments where we feel an unexplainable calm and renewing peace that comes over us for no external apparent reason.  Miracles, hover over us in the times where in our hearts there is a resounding message that reassures us despite the external chaos and mayhem in our external world  " all is well " and everything is going to "be alright". We experience the miracle of laughter at moments in our life where what is occurring is far from being funny or  joy rendering. We experience miracles at unsuspecting moments, where we have reach the bottom of our barrel of hope and a friend or a stranger extends an encouraging word or act of kindness when we needed it the most. Our most potent m...

The Power of the Pause

Image
  " Patience is an inner pause, a brief stillness, a moment we give ourselves to breathe through our initial reaction so we can move to the place where a calm, thoughtful response is born. Patience is a gift of time we give ourselves so we can give the gift of peace to others.” ―L.R. Knost. Happy New Year, New Decade, & New You... Wisdom Seekers, Faithful Blog Readers, In 2020, I invite you to welcome moments  of pause in your life.  Too often we can miss the moments to breathe, and process what is happening in our lives and the experiences that we are moving through. When we seized the opportunities to stop, and collect our thoughts and consider our words and how we should carefully respond to either people, or in situations that require wisdom driven actions, we reap the benefits, as our actions add and not subtract from the value of our life. Pausing is a great way to slow down and savor the unforgettable details of our...
