HAPPY NEW MONTH!!!!
HAPPY NEW MONTH!
FEBRUARY! Whew! What a year it has been since last February! Have you been writing your resolutions? Have you planned that new health regimen? ; )
Just A Regular Saturday
Yes, it is simply 02/01/2020, just a regular day. But, why should January have all of the, ‘New Year, New You Energy?’ Today is as good a day as any to reflect. Did you make yourself promises on January 1, 2020, that have fallen by the wayside? I’m here to tell you, it is OK, everyday is a do-over, 24 fresh hours to try again. And maybe a, 'NEW YOU,' Isn't necessary at all. You already rock.
Fine Tune
One of my favorite ways to fine tune on the daily is with the framework of the Examen. The Jesuits practice this technique twice daily, I try to get it in once…
1. Become aware of God’s presence.
2. Review the day with gratitude.
3. Pay attention to your emotions.
4. Choose one feature of the day and pray from it.
5. Look toward tomorrow.
Try it.
There is a sweetness to practicing this kind of awareness, and it can invite you to a compassion for your self that, perhaps, you've not experienced before.
You are absolutely still not behind. Because 02/02/2020 is also a great day to reflect and begin again. Everyday is.
