Thank you again to all of you who have chosen to take part in “The Gift of February” Celebration project. (If you don’t know what I am talking about, see Saturdays blog post for January 31, 2009 or listen to the audio on my website here at:http://www.insightsandinspirations.com/february.html )
For today, the fourth day of February 2009, I thought I would share something I wrote a few years ago entitled “Generosity of Spirit”
I think it fits right in with the spirit of “The Gift of February” Project. When we are living our lives from a more conscious place, it seems that opportunities to be generous in spirit show up everywhere. Today, be on the lookout for them.
Enjoy, and I look forward to hearing from you, in the comments below.
Generosity of Spirit
Copyright 2006 by Veronica M. Hay
Be generous with your time …
Stay fully present with each encounter, as if this moment, is the most important,
and nothing else exists.
Be generous with your words …
Never miss an opportunity to tell someone how you feel about them, or something they have done. A word of encouragement, a note of appreciation, a sincere compliment, can brighten someone’s day and even change a life.
Be generous with your thoughts …
Think the best of others, and see them as they would like to be, and not as they are now.
Be generous with your money …
Find an occasion to share what you have with others.
Money is like love, the more you give away, the more returns to you.
Be generous with your heart …
Keep it open, no matter how frightening that may be sometimes. An open heart will heal every ailment and restore peace to your soul.
Be generous with your smile …
Give it away to everyone you meet, and see the world reflected back to you, in joyous celebration.
Be generous with your love …
It is who you really are, and why you came here,
and in the end, it is all that really matters anyway.
