Inspiration: Happy Friday!
Today is the 19th day of 2024.

We have $19,000.00 today.
10% savings = $1,900.00
40% taxes = $7,600.00: This week I am expressing gratitude for these tax dollars being spent to support the Roosevelt National Forest. It is in the state of Colorado. This National Forest was established in 1902 as part of the Medicine Bow Forest Reserve and then in 1910 it was called Colorado National Forest. It was again, re-named in 1932 to honor President Theodore Roosevelt. Then in 1975 the Roosevelt National Forest was combined with both the Arapaho National Forest and the Pawnee National Grasslands for administrative purposes. You will find among other wonders stunning scenic drives that increase public accessibility, and six wilderness areas to explore. Check out the Cache La Poudre, Comanche Peak, Indian Peaks, James Peak, Neota, and Rawah wilderness areas. Learn more here.

How will you be spending the remaining $9,500.00 today?

HERE IS MY PLAN: Embrace Living

“The only person you should try to be better than is the person you were yesterday.” – Matty Mullens

How are you showing up in the world?

Kasey Rae dreamed of being an emergency room doctor. This dream was inspired by watching her favorite television show called Grey’s Anatomy. I remember her mom telling me a story about the time Kasey Rae was seven years old. The teacher called to report that Kasey Rae had instigated a game she named “emergency room” on the playground with classmates. Under Kasey Rae’s direction, the children were taking turns being doctors, nurses, and patients at recess. We laughed and laughed at this child’s antics as well as her unshakeable focus on becoming a doctor. Last week as she was returning for her senior year in college, Kasey Rae was in a fatal car accident. Several people are now living another day because Kasey Rae was an organ donor. Are you living a life you love? Life is not a dress rehearsal. How are you showing up in the world?

$100.00: for self-care. These dollars are for postage stamps. I am writing more letters to tell people that I love them today. Sending mail with heartfelt messages fuels my personal heart songs. And I love that!

$0.00 Priceless: Seize the day. Stop waiting for tomorrow. Tell someone that they are loved, choose to find more joyful moments, rise above fears to see hope on this day. Author Ester Hicks writes that “The only thing that makes the difference in the way you feel right now is the thought that you are thinking right now. It doesn’t matter how much money you’ve got; there are joyful people with no money, and there are unhappy people with lots of money. How you feel is about how you are allowing the energy that is You to flow. So, the Art of Allowing and sustaining the vibration of love, is about the art of living; about the art of thriving; about the art of clarity. It is about the art of being who you really are.”

Reclaim your Living Intentions with love. Life is not a dress rehearsal. Do something you love today. Do it now. Respond with love. Repeat. What would it take?

$8,400.00: These dollars are supporting Organ Donor education. Do you know what organs or tissue can be donated? The heart, kidneys, lungs, pancreas, liver, intestines, corneas, skin, tendons, bone, nerve, and heart valves. When we know people need help, we can choose to do something. How open are you to living in a better world in 2024? Learn more here: ‎Myth Vs. Fact · ‎How It Works · ‎Become An Organ Donor

$1000.00: for a date with my husband. This week we are playing in the snow and then warming up by the fire. We are finding joy in life’s simple pleasures. How much love can you stand?

FLOW FIVE FRIDAY: Current “real” life expressions of gratitude, love, and contribution to wellbeing.

$5.00:  this week’s five-dollar bill is inside a public library book titled “Human Body: Activity Book for Kids” by author Dr. Katie Stokes. Supporting the dreams of another generation to become medical professionals. I am choosing to be the energy of what works in life.

Five Increments of Time: This week I dropped off a few grocery items to a friend who was home sick. How are you “Flowing Five” this week?

Well-Being: Something that I am doing or not doing for self-care in real time.

I am doing something that daily feeds my heart songs. Today I played with card stock and markers to create cards to send to my parents. What are you doing or not doing for self-care?

Planet Awareness: Contributing to the health of Earth.

I appreciate nature’s gifts. You will find me watching the birds and other wildlife navigate the snow and cold winter weather. Since there is less light pollution out here in the rural area, I am privileged to see spectacular views of stars on clear nights.  I am taking time to notice the beauty and quiet of nature in the winter season. What are you doing for the health of our planet?

Hold Space or Contribute to a Friends Life Intention:

This week I am supporting my friend Caren. One of Caren’s living intentions is to earn a master’s degree in nursing.  She wants to be promoted at the hospital where she currently works.  One way that you can help support Caren’s living intention is to imagine her joyfully receiving her diploma this fall semester and a promotion at work!

Choose joy. Be kind. Love others and strive to be a better human. What would it take?
