Sometimes I Wonder

I wander in places secret

Hidden from daily life

I wonder where I aimlessly roam

My eyes awaken with new life

Greenery blooming, blossoming

While autumn looms

Secret get-aways

All alone, I experience soft bird calls

Crickets, cicadas, a shot in the distance

My secret birds-eye view of red berries, rippling brooks, uncharted pathways

I wonder where I wander

My secret get-aways shared solely with my soul.

My precious growth.

What sets your soul on fire?

Each day brings a new opportunity to indulge oneself into a new endeavor. When you find yourself in a rut, you may wish to stop for a moment, assess what really makes you feel energized and alive and pursue the dreams you know lie within you.

Days fly by. Life becomes rote and mundane. What awakens your soul and spirit?

Pursue your passion.

Do you feel comfortable with others?

When do you feel most/least comfortable when with another person?

What factors are present when you feel relaxed with another?

What can you do to surround yourself with others who support, uplift, inspire you to be your best?

Who is a suitable companion for you to spend quality time with?

Do you honor your intuition regarding this issue?

Companionship can be wonderful. Find someone with whom you feel safe and can blossom.

Psych Central, www.psychcentral.com,

has an article written on why, "Conscientiousness" is the most important personality trait.

Why is this an important attribute? When you meet someone conscientious, how do you feel?

www.jackkornfield.com The book, "The Wise Heart," reminds one of the importance of compassion and forgiveness.

At times we perpetuate dysfunction in our relationships by staying stuck in the premise of, "being right." Have you ever found yourself trying to prove to your partner that your stance is the correct one?

Who wins? Is it more important for you to win the argument or discussion or to compassionately listen to your partner with an effort to understand? Listen for the meaning of the message.

Why not evaluate or re-evaluate your need to be the winner?

Do the loving thing to connect with your partner with empathy and understanding.

You and your partner will both feel so much better. 💗
