In our culture we equate 'abundance' with finances.
But as I gain a broader understanding ,
truly begin to live, and to appreciate,
the abundance that is already in my own life,
the more I notice my attitudes about this changing.
I am starting to notice
and experience
all of my previously unappreciated abundance.
And it really has little
to do with money.
to do with money.
Instead of focusing on perceived 'lacks'
as we so often do
as we so often do
I have come to value,
and to celebrate,
and to celebrate,
the gifts that are already in my life.
GRATITUDE is bubbling up!
And living with gratitude
begins to change
attitudes and perceptions.
So that life blossoms into a gift,
no longer a problem to solve,
or a job to accomplish.

ha! the dog's office, not yours! hello, Cloudia.
Well, I needed that this morning as I face a rascally principal over some misbehaving young ladies.
Life is a gift. It's all good. It's all learning. All we have to do is open our eyes and arms.
Gratitude has changed my life, so I whole-heartedly agree with your words!
exactly, no money can buy good friends or family :)
btw - tried befriending you in facebook again, message was i already sent the request... no reply
Even a problem counts on the abundance side of the ledger for if there were no problems left to solve there would be no growth in understanding to add tot he abundance.
Lovely sentiments and photos as always, Cloudia.
Noticing previous unnoticed abundances...WOW...i loved it.Aloha Cloudia.
Wise words on this rainy day.
My soul sister Emily Dickinson would agree with you about the sheltered life.
Your office mate looks as if you disturbed his nap time!
