" Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not one bit simpler" Albert Einstein
I have been struggling with what I want to say in my blog. There is a big part of me that wants to be deep and thought provoking. That doesn't seem to be happening.( my ego is going to have to surrender it's need to be witty and smart.) There is great meaning and depth when we interact with others with love and gratitude. Maybe my simple and silly stories can make you laugh, cry and encourage you to reflect on the way you celebrate and interact with the people in your world. Life is complex enough. Gratitude and acknowledging our fellow beings does not need to be complicated. The idea has just been conceived and it's in it first month of gestation. The stick just turned blue. I am going to give myself permission to have one small idea and play with it. Ah..... Play! I forgot, this is supposed to be fun. I previously mentioned that one small gesture can change the course of someones day. One small action....that is "doable."
As I write this, I realize that I have not done anything in the past few days to "celebrate or acknowledge" anyone or anything. My daily practice of gratitude leaves something to be desired. I have been self-absorbed bitch...rather than gratitude girl. Today I will turn that around. It's just that "simple."
Simple authenticity is so much more moving and inspires us all to just "be".
