This Monday morning brings a definite shift in perspective. Things are swirling around us that don’t feel so good and…its Monday time to start the clock all over again. Hopefully to find calm along our way.

Today I want to ask you to think of an idea that has been percolating in your mind. An idea that for one reason or another you have not yet brought to life. Maybe even one that you have brought partly to life but then for some reason or another left it sitting there waiting for you to pick it back up again. 

Sometimes the weather has to shift to make us shift giving us the unexpected. The rain finally comes when you had counted on a sunny day.

It has been said that patience is a virtue, and it leads me to wonder as I wander through this life where do I find myself grounded with patience. How about you? Where do you find yourself able to wait another day and another day, and maybe even more for something that you really want to have happen in your life?

Where are you ready to grow this week as you think of darkness and light that surrounds you?

The theme that I want to share with you today is around the idea of being a lover of life and the respect that comes within you when you do. An inspiration was today’s picture of my dear friend Nancy’s grandson that she had sent to me.
