I made it. Another birthday. Another circuit around the brilliant sun. Today I am blessed to be (my age today) years old, yet my essence is as timeless as the cosmos. In celebration of living, I'll pause to enjoy a deep, relaxing breath.Over the last 365 days I've journeyed across peaks, especially when (a fulfilling moment) and through valleys, such as (a challenge) I have stumbled and surrendered, then rested and resumed. My path is divinely ordered. I just need to take a step forward. Then another. I am sheltered spiritually amid all storms.Beyond the dark clouds the sun's brilliance never wavers. I resolve each day to stay in the light, to seek it within and to radiate it outward. In those human moments when my spirit dims, I can reach out and share my true feelings with (a person who listens) someone who I care about and who cares about me.In truth, I realize that (wisdom from my inner voice) In gratitude, I realize that (a sign of grace or good fortune) So, this day, the date of my birth, is also a time of conception—of dazzling dreams waiting to manifest. I am expectant. These are the realities I envision as I hold the light of...Abundance (how it shows up in my life) Creativity (how it shows up in my life) Courage (how it shows up in my life) Passion (how it shows up in my life) Unity (how it shows up in my life) Wholeness (how it shows up in my life ) Beauty (how it shows up in my life) Peace (how it shows up in my life) I accept these blessings as they come into my life. I give thanks for each moment, each sunrise, each breath.I am joy.
