REJOICE AND BE GLAD
"Just one small positive thought in the morning can change your whole day" — Dalai Lama.
Each morning, we are presented with a blank canvas. As the sun rises, so does the opportunity to paint our day with the colors of our thoughts. It is a quiet truth: just one small positive thought in the morning can ripple through the hours ahead, transforming not only your day but your entire outlook on life. I don’t recall when I first heard the phrase, “It’s a great day to have a great day” but it has stuck with me through the years and I began using it upon waking in the morning and adding in gratitude for another day alive. As I start my day with this mindset, I know that there is nothing more important than taking that holy breath and expressing gratitude.
Dear Angels, why does such a simple act hold so much power? Why does it feel so good just to say those simple words – thank you for another day, another chance to make a difference in the world?
Dear Ones, your minds are like fertile gardens, ready to grow whatever seeds you plant. A positive thought is a seed of light, hope, and joy. When you nurture it, it grows strong and vibrant, crowding out the weeds of doubt and negativity. The secret lies in beginning your day with intention, choosing that one thought that uplifts and inspires you. Imagine waking up and telling yourself, “Today is full of endless possibilities.” This single affirmation can shift your mindset from one of limitation to one of curiosity and excitement. Instead of dreading challenges, you start to see them as opportunities for growth. Instead of focusing on obstacles, you begin to notice pathways. Starting your day with a positive thought doesn’t mean dismissing life’s difficulties. It means grounding yourself in hope and resilience before facing them. It’s like putting on a coat of armor, one made of optimism and grace. This one small shift in the morning creates a ripple effect. A smile replaces a frown, patience replaces frustration, and gratitude replaces complaints. Your positivity becomes contagious, influencing those around you. What if everyone began their day with one positive thought? How might that change the energy of a household, a workplace, a community or even your planet? The beauty is that it doesn’t require grand gestures or hours of effort. It begins in the quiet moments before the rush of the day takes over. Remember, the morning is your sacred time to align with the energy you wish to carry forward. By choosing one small positive thought, you hold the power to shift your entire day. And as each day builds upon the next, you create a life grounded in positivity and purpose. Give praise for each new day just as the psalmist did, "This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it."
Dear Angels, thank you. I love you. Namaste y’all.
Today, I promise to continue my practice of giving gratitude for each day that I open my eyes.
