My version of going Viral

It's not in the Millions


but over 10,000 to me is absolutely Amazing.

As I saw it getting closer I kept getting more and more excited!

Come along ... see what happens

I share my blog posts weekly and never know how they will be received, but this one started to take off and hasn't stopped.

It has traveled around the World.

Find it here 

It's an excerpt from the guided relaxation titled I Give Thanks in my book - Simply, One Breath At a Time.  

I'm not sure why it keeps being shared all over the World, but in some way I feel that we are needing and looking for more kindness, understanding, compassion and gratitude.  

All the craziness these past few years that's coming from all directions leaves us wondering what's next, and maybe feeling worried, frustrated, scared and unsafe. 

I hope that you can use some of what I've shared to breathe and relax for a few minutes.

We often forget to give Thanks for the simple everyday things in our life and surroundings.

What has special meaning for you today? 



I thought you might like to also look at this post that says Thank You to others who support our lives.


Take Care.

You're the Star of the Story

What are Your Great Stories


Do any Start with Once  Upon a Time

Just think about it.

We don't even realize how many Stories we have.

OK, so for us Gals we're a daughter, maybe a sister, a cousin, an aunt, wife, mother, daughter in law, just to name a few.

Then you could be a best friend, Doctor, teacher, scientist, author or actor, a race car driver, singer.

And similar for the Guys, a son, husband, father, uncle, brother, airplane pilot, construction worker, artist, musician and on and on.

The lists are as unique as we are and can go on and on as each thing we experience, learn, connect with, do, will have a story attached.

Each Face has a Story


A couple of Meditations in my book Moving Forward from the Heart inspired this post.

In Words from a Friend  we look at what would a good friend say about you and what would you want to hear. What words are used.

And, the Meditation titled Stories to Tell talks about what you want to remember, share or pass on. How you want to be remembered and who else's stories you may want to tell so they are remembered.


Shine a Light on your Stories.

The holiday season is a wonderful time to get together with friends and family and share some of those stores with others.

There's so much to TELL.

How will you share your memories and experiences?

There are many things in life that are thought of as not important at the time, but they may be very important to someone else. This little verse says:


You may only be one person in the world,
but you may mean the world to one person
~ Author Unknown

Do you know how many gifts you give out each day, week and year through your smiles, warm words, generosity and the laughs you share with others?

Do you know how many gifts of friendship, kindness, sharing and caring you send to those you know and meet?

Do you know how many gifts of a helping hand you give to all those you know, to strangers, and out into the world?

Will you take a moment to pause and let them say thank you for being that one person who truly made a difference in the lives of so many others.


Will you rest for a few moments knowing
that one person can mean the world
to so many others,
and YOU do.

Thank You.
