When I think of inspiration for Thankful Thursdays, I notice an undercurrent of willingness that wells up beneath this gratitude. Willingness is defined as "the quality or state of being prepared to do something; readiness." It is this quality of readiness that dances with the magnificence of gratitude. It takes a certain element of vulnerability and uniqueness to have vision when the path isn't clearly marked. Nature embodies this willingness as any thankful messenger would. Gazing at this trickling stream reminds me to cultivate this quality of willingness. I notice how the stream has adapted and become brave in response to the constant change around it.
Today my invitation to you is to fill your body with breath, your heart with gratitude, and embrace the experiences that call you into this state of willingness. Honor the doors that have been closed, trusting that your spirit has outgrown the experiences behind them. Move with a brave heart towards all the mysteries that life holds for you...welcome the readiness, and be prepared to flow....
May you Sweetly Seek:)
In gratitude,
Sarah
