Rejuvenate Yourself

 

  

Rejuvenate Yourself

by Jane Powell

 

“Walking is moving meditation.”

If your life is going in a hundred different directions and moving a million miles an hour, walking may make the burden easier to handle.
Walking allows you to focus on being fully present. It provides you with an opportunity to mull over something that may be on your mind. It gives you a chance to take in the beauty and bounty that surrounds you. Walking can be a time for self-discovery, a time to reconnect with wholeness and harmony.
Take 15-minutes today, and just walk. Let your mind rest. Savor the physical and emotional benefits you gain from moving your body.
This is rejuvenation at its best!

 

"I don't know if I continue, even today, always liking myself. But what I learned to do many years ago was to forgive myself. It is very important for every human being to forgive herself or himself because if you live, you will make mistakes- it is inevitable. But once you do and you see the mistake, then you forgive yourself and say, 'well, if I'd known better I'd have done better,' that's all. So you say to people who you think you may have injured, 'I'm sorry,' and then you say to yourself, 'I'm sorry.' If we all hold on to the mistake, we can't see our own glory in the mirror because we have the mistake between our faces and the mirror; we can't see what we're capable of being. You can ask forgiveness of others, but in the end the real forgiveness is in one's own self. I think that young men and women are so caught by the way they see themselves. Now mind you. When a larger society sees them as unattractive, as threats, as too black or too white or too poor or too fat or too thin or too sexual or too asexual, that's rough. But you can overcome that. The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself. If we don't have that we never grow, we never learn, and sure as can be we should never teach.”

~~Maya Angelou

 

Don't avoid the hard work. That's where the greatest value is
Created.

Don't be afraid of the difficult, complicated, challenging
Tasks. Once you get past the fear, you're already past the
Most difficult aspect.

Relish the opportunity to do the hard work. For it is an
Opportunity to experience yourself being fully alive and
Effective.

Find real enjoyment and satisfaction in doing the difficult
Work. Get yourself hooked on how good it feels to make a
Meaningful positive difference.

It's often assumed that hard work is best avoided. Yet when
You avoid hard work, you cheat yourself out of the joy of
Accomplishment.

Seek out the hard work and you'll find it's not bad at all.
Do the hard work, and transform each day, each moment and
Each effort into great value.

Ralph Marston
