Wholeness

 

            When we are assessing our health, we should take time to consider our level of Wholeness.  How “complete” are we? Does anything seem to be missing, and are there areas of ourselves that seem to need more attention; for instance, which kind of track does our thinking take?  Are we as present and positive to our lives as we should be, or are we “letting ourselves go” in some ways?

We give way...          

 In busy times and especially when times seem harder or more demanding, I think that sometimes we give way to what is at hand and do not always take the loving and positive care of ourselves that we should.  Our own lives, especially our own thoughts, will always be closer to us than anything else.  We cannot, nor should we, expect that others can think for us or choose the directions our lives will take.

No one else can bring our gifts...            

Taking responsibility can be challenging at times, especially when our surroundings are not always encouraging.  Nevertheless, no one else can bring our gifts but we ourselves, and it is part of our display of Wholeness when we know and appreciate this.  “One day at a time” is a good motto to keep before us, especially when there is much to think about and difficult choices to make.
