When life is less-than what do we do to see it as perfect? That’s right–Count our blessings. Take 5 minutes right now and see how wonder filled your life really is. The choice to enjoy is not always accepted by those around us so we need to remember, ‘This is MY life’.
Peace and Calming and Joy are two wonderful oils to help us stay in the place of gratitude.
I had a wonderful day recently and I never left the house. I got so many things accomplished and yet none of it was impressive. I do believe that contentment is vital for gratitude to abound. There’s a wise saying that goes, “Godliness with contentment is great gain.” I think I am beginning to get a deeper understanding of what that means.
Sometimes when there is a major event we let our expectations rob us of enjoying the moment and being grateful. I believe that gratitude colors the moment in perfect beauty.
I’ll use the oil of Gratitude and Harmony today.

Christmas cards didn’t appear in the US until the early 1900s. The first American card manufacturer was a German name Louis Prang of Massachusetts. Massachusetts at one time didn’t allow Christmas to be celebrated. They finally made it a holiday in 1885.
Mistletoe at one time was used to make a liquor. The Norsemen regarded it as a sacred berry with great healing properties.
The Dutch children put their wooden shoes by the fireplace and wanted St Nicholas to fill them. We of course hang stockings.
Whose holiday have you made brighter??
My oil? Christmas Spirit of course.
Personally it all takes effort-To Do or Not. I believe I will do. I will grasp the moment of sunshine and thank God that I live in a land of unlimited possibilities. I choose to get up and start the process of developing my dream.
My oil today Live With Passion.
Everyday is a clean start. Or not. Me I am embracing the infinite possibility of miracles today.
My oil of use will be Rose. It has the highest vibration of all the therapeutic grade oils.
Day 3 and I have reviewed what is on the table and will give a generous ‘tip’ to someone. (It doesn’t have to be money.)
I had best use my Valor oil for persistence and my Gratitude oil for the journey.
Setting the Intent for Today. We have discussed this before. Each day this week I’ll keep the intent of yesterday and add a new one for today. Today I will share a laugh, receive a hug, and lighten someone’s load.
The oil of Joy will sustain my purpose.
to be kind. It comes back to you as you are doing the thought/deed. Try this to see if I am right.
You are driving, standing in line, or some other activity that involves what I call ‘passive interaction’ with others of our species. One of these unknown humans do something to irritate you. You are getting more and more agitated. You have enough control to not go ‘occupy’ on them but you want to. How dare they act so crude, rude and socially unacceptable.
Now change those thoughts. See that person as doing the best they can. Your thoughts of You creep shut up/what the../ are feeding negative emotions. If we say a little blessing/mantra/positive thought it will lighten us up (positive emotions).
‘Ahh you poor schmuck I know you are clueless so what the hey‘ isn’t quite what I had in mind. Something like I hope your day gets better or just think words like fun, calm, serene, happy, etc. It is fun to do. It also helps you create a more beautiful day.
Magnify Your Purpose is a great oil to use for creating an environment around you of high vibration.
Today I remembered to thank the power of creation (God Universe Big Bang) for a restorative rest.
Today I remembered to thank the ones who make my life beautiful.
Today I remembered to thank myself for being brilliant enough to subscribe to this blog.
Today I remembered……………
The oil of Gratitude helps our remember-er to keep us in the place of smiles.
The oil of Present Time helps your brain stay in the moment. So often we can ‘dither’ the time away and get very little completed. When we take a few deep cleansing breaths, smell our oil or just focus on our breath for a few intervals we get a grander view of what the need of the moment is.
Clear example: I just received a text changing the schedule for today. The change has given me extra time. Time that allows me to recuperate before going to the next appointment. I’ll use Joy oil to increase my appreciation for this ‘gift of time.’
