And so, I Blog!!

Soooo, everybody is blogging except for Moi? Is this the newest form of writing? Are we headed towards the reality of the movie "Fahrenheit 451 "? What a tragedy that would be!! I have tried Twitter~for about 48 hours ,not for me at all! I do Facebook, but also find it to be truly surfacy and a bit of a waste of my time. I like to write, not twit or mindlessly comment. So, I guess I will. :) Here I will share on the most precious thing in my life, my recovery and my spiritual journey. If my only audience is that of the ether, that will be good enough ... for I write not to be read, but because I am called to write!!! And so, I blog!!
I will begin with the daily readings from the book:

A Grateful Heart ~ 365 ways to give thanks at mealtime edited by MJ Ryan
The Winter Prayers began on the first day of winter ~ so I am begining there. The winter prayers begin with this thought:
A thankful soul is thankful under all circumstances, a complaining soul complains even if he lives in paradise. -BAHA'U'LLAH
Please join me in thought-provoking conversaton! Namaste' Cate

Winter Prayers

I have a new book: 
 A Grateful Heart ~ 365 ways to give thanks at mealtime:edited by MJ Ryan

The Winter Prayers  began on the first day of winter ~ so I have a little catching up to do.  Perhaps a couple of posts a day until I am on track with the daily prayers.


The winter prayers begin with this thought:


A Thankful person is thankful
     under all circumstances.
A complaining soul complains even if
     he lives in paradise.   BAHA'U'LLAH


Doesn't that really say it all so clearly ... i DO get to choose how I live, how i respond to life and life's circumstances ... i can be grate-filled and believe in the greater love that fills us alll and leads our journeying   ~  or, I can live in the world of never enough, waiting flor the next shoe to drop, trusting instead in fear.  For this day, what is your choice? 
This simple reading makes it all so simple and clear ...
 I  know mine!!!!
