Creating Magical Intersections
Posted on August 21st, 2009 No commentsWhen I give an appreciation, I am aware of the spaces in me being magically touched by another person. My appreciation reflects the value I have received from that person’s thoughtfulness and generosity of Spirit. Also, there are times when I choose to appreciate someone, not for what they have done, but simply, because their way of being or their presence nurtures and/or inspires me.
When I give or receive appreciations, I am sensitively aware of all that is good, of the magical places where we all intersect. And, I experience life, and the world, as my ally.
Since what we think about expands, I want to invite you to select one person daily to appreciate. This is a way to create value and kindness for yourself and others.
If you are wondering how to start, the following questions are offered to ignite your creativity:
What I appreciate about you is………….
What is unique about you is……….
What surprises me about you is…….
In your presence, I feel ………
What inspires me about you is…. -
Invitation to Appreciate!
Posted on May 14th, 2009 5 commentsI realized my passion for appreciation while facilitating leadership programs. Here, people made huge commitments to move their lives forward. At the conclusion, each person was individually appreciated with the clear intention that they connect with their own gifts and experience their magnificence.
Those moments of appreciation live and breathe in me. I felt the world as One — the cradling presence of a Higher Power; love, honor, and gentleness permeating all things. I saw joy in peoples’ eyes, in their smiles, singing and dancing playfully. I experienced people being deeply touched in giving and receiving, their souls connecting. We were in loving service holding the space for each other’s highest good.
After leading many groups, I would wonder: How may I sustain this?
How may I move my life forward through presencing my gifts and expanding love through giving and receiving appreciation?This blog is a space to explore these delicious questions…An invitation to connect…To reveal and experience our magnificence…To express appreciation to yourself and others.Imagine the possibilities…………
