An online daily putting "Hooray!" in your day
Glorious You!![]() Today is a day for bursting forth, for leaving the past behind and for marveling at the glory that is you. Why? Because every breath, every action, every experience, every kiss, every heartbeat has been building up to this point. You have been on the bottom, the top and everything in between. You have persevered through challenges. You have hit high marks and landed on soft ground. You could have never achieved all that you have done without going through exactly what you have been through—it’s all been grist for the mill. You are so remarkable and so beautifully YOU. No matter how far you may have fallen, the Universe/Spirit has been there to lift you to higher and higher places. How high do you want to climb? How far will you reach? It’s all possible. Revel in the delight. Taste the sweetness that is, in fact, your life. You are more wonderful than you realize. May your day be as glorious as you are! For more THD Blog Articles, click here!

-- Rumi Not Christian or Jew or Muslim, not Hindu Buddhist, sufi, or zen. Not any religion or cultural system. I am not from the East or the West, not out of the ocean or up from the ground, not natural or ethereal, not composed of elements at all. I do not exist, am not an entity in this world or in the next, did not descend from Adam and Eve or any origin story. My place is placeless, a trace of the traceless. Neither body or soul. I belong to the beloved, have seen the two worlds as one and that one call to and know, first, last, outer, inner, only that breath breathing human being. Did You Know?

WE CAN!!!!A song to fill your heart, and some inspiration from children...Of course!
In 2012, the students at École Puntledge Park Elementary School in Courtenay, British Columbia, Canada completed a self directed project called "I Can" with the goal of making the world a better place. The project was so powerful that the teachers and staff decided to make "I Can" the school's theme for 2013, and adopted Jesse Ruben's, "We Can" as their song. This inspirational video captures Jesse's life-changing visit to the students in this small valley on Vancouver Island. - See more at: http://www.karmatube.org/videos.php?id=3813#sthash.mBy0Z7gd.dpuf Music by Jesse Ruben.

(By the way, some of these "on our bedside table" are actually on our Kindles and Nooks, and other reading devices! What a world we live in, huh? Simply amazing!)
There are two basic motivating forces: fear and love.
When we are afraid, we pull back from life. When we are in love, we open to all that life has to offer with passion, excitement, and acceptance. We need to learn to love ourselves first, in all our glory and our imperfections. If we cannot love ourselves, we cannot fully open to our ability to love others or our potential to create. Evolution and all hopes for a better world rest in the fearlessness and open-hearted vision of people who embrace life. -- John Lennon I've tried
to become someone else for a while, only to discover that he, too, was me. -- Stephen Dunn Joy is what happens to us when we allow ourselves
to recognize how good things really are. ― Marianne Williamson The soul should always stand ajar, ready to welcome the ecstatic experience.
― Emily Dickinson Not knowing when the dawn will come
I open every door. ― Emily Dickinson, The Complete Poems |
