Standing Knee-Deep in a River and Dying of Thirst
"The thirst after happiness is never extinguished in the hear of [woman]. ~Jean-Jacques Rousseau
Kathy Mattea sings of friends who had been taken for granted, sweethearts she had known, and a wonderful world of strangers just waiting to make a connection with us (while we turn our eyes away)
There is so much we are taking for granted. We must try to stop living unconsciously.
The revelation that we have everything we need in life to make us happy but simply lack the conscious awareness to appreciate it can be as refreshing as lemonade on a hot summer day or as startling as cold water being thrown in our face. .
Are you going through your days parched and empty, when you are really standing knee-deep in the river of abundance?
Today's challenge & exercise: Write down 10 things you are grateful for in this moment.
