Riddled with Joy



"I open myself to receive 
the abundance of the universe."
Patricia Bass

As we begin to realize the depth of the universe, we are no longer singularly fixed on money as the  ultimate sign of success.  We remain determined to succeed, but as we move forward an appreciation for segments of nature or fellow man catches our attention.

Passion is good for the soul and dedication propels us forward, but life ceases to be about money.  We develop a different rhythm which allows us to notice gifts with a keener eye.  Acknowledging the beauty in nature and mankind expands us and builds a bond or connection.

Whether it is in the face of a beaming child or the wisdom of an elder, sparks ignite within us honing  our respect and honor for self and others.  If money is the obsession at the end of the tunnel without pause, we do not have the awareness of the richness surrounding us.  Fullness arrives from living with appreciation.  Notice the birds, a frown changing into a smile, a stranger reaching out to help another stranger or a dedicated time for silence at the end of the day.  The day becomes riddled with joy.
