Ear-Flipping, Grass Stain Kind of Day
“Each day holds a surprise. But only if we expect it can we see, hear, or feel it when it comes to us. Let’s not be afraid to receive each day’s surprise, whether it comes to us as sorrow or as joy It will open a new place in our hearts, a place where we can welcome new friends and celebrate more fully our shared humanity.” – Henri Nouwen
Lay your thinking down
Give your opinions and assumptions a day off
Enter today with fresh eyes
Free from resistance and rules
Renew, refresh, rewire
Heart over head
Being over doing
Open, listening and aligned in now
No yesterday, no tomorrow, today alone
Go off trail and explore
Anchored in gratitude and awareness in the fullness of each moment
Extraordinary in the ordinary
May you have an ear-flipping, grass stain on the forehead kind of day
“We will be more successful in all our endeavors if we can let go of the habit of running all the time, and take little pauses to relax and re-center ourselves. And we’ll also have a lot more joy in living.” – Thich Nhat Hanh
