Everyday Mystic by Janice Puta - blog for the soul

Getting up and getting out! Some mornings it’s a chore. Especially if I’m on my way to the fitness center. Especially if this is the day I do muscle toning. But I do it. And why?

In Ask and It Is Given, Esther and Jerry Hicks write, “Every thought vibrates, every thought radiates a signal, and every thought attracts a matching signal back. We call that process the Law of Attraction. The Law of Attraction says: That which is like unto itself is drawn.”

So if I march on over to the fitness center with the intention and desire to get fit, I will get fit. If I do the best work out I can, I will get good results.

I know this is what it takes to have what I want. I know this is how to be proactive and focused on attracting in my desired outcome.

No matter how big your goal or how fantastic the results you want to have. Start with a step-by-step process for getting there. Then go out and do it!

From tornadoes to hurricanes, floods to forest fires, there’s a lot to do, a lot to give. And sometimes volunteers, families and friends in the thick of it all may feel like saying:

“I’ve never been drained to the last drop. It’s a strange, hollow feeling to be so empty.” (Chapter 6 in Pathways: Tales for the Spiritual Seeker)

In the spiritual allegory, “Three Barrels of Wine: The path of good self-care,” there are several metaphors for how each of us can keep from getting emptied out.

I had the list and the pictures in the Sunday flyer. There was no way I could get this wrong. My friends stood in line behind me at the checkout. The clerk paused and then tensed.

He picked through the notebooks again, sorted them into two piles, and checked the screen entries. My friends deserted me and got in line at the next counter.

The world’s most expensive bikini is pure diamonds and platinum. At $30 million, I don’t think anyone is wearing it near the water unless surrounded by bodyguards.

I was thinking about bikinis in the shower today. I was wondering how many women torment themselves by trying to create the right kind of body to put into a handful of fabric about the size of a washcloth?

How many women have sized themselves up against a bikini in the dressing room, only to go home dejected and feeling excluded from the beach scene?

For anyone who fell short of this superficial token of beauty and social approval, here’s some great news for you.

Remember the story of the Ugly Duckling by Hans Christian Anderson?

The ugly duckling could have continued to think, feel, and live like an ugly duckling the rest of its life.

But, like for all of us, the opportunity came to get a good look at itself.

The transformation came not just in looking, but in also accepting the beauty and grace of a swan as its true identity.

You may think your abundance and prosperity is very much like a flock of ugly ducklings unable to fly, and soon to be stuck in the mud with the lake quickly emptying out around you.

Let’s take a quick look at what is still left in your pond and see if we can find what it takes to claim the image and amenities of a swan.

Down the nature trail the vanilla fragrance grabs my attention.

The aroma is so compelling I have to turn my head and find out where its coming from.

Clusters of tiny white petals adorn the sprawling shrubs.

The shade of towering trees makes lingering comfortable and ecstatic.

I like to think that our personal energy is like a subtle light we send out and about.

• When we’re at peace with ourselves and the rest of the world, we radiate!
• When we’re doing our part to stay healthy, we shine!
• When we’re silencing the ego mind and the head chatter, we glow!
• When we’re non-judgmental and compassionate, we sparkle!
• When we’re on purpose with our life, we glisten!
• When we’re living out of our soul essence, we gleam!

There is profound wisdom written into the Preamble of the Declaration of Independence for the United States.

This document, approved by Congress on July 4, 1776, declared independence from the Kingdom of Great Britain. But what’s spiritual about this federal holiday?

It’s right here in some of the most memorized and quoted lines:

“We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.”
