Full

Life is better when you’re full. Full of joy. Full of peace. Full of happiness. Your car rides better on a full tank. Your refrigerator looks better when its full.Babies sleep better on a full stomach. There is something about functioning at capacity. So, why do we try to operate out of an empty glass? Why do we ride on fumes? Why do we give more than we can afford? Mostly, because we’ve been conditioned by lack. We get used to not enough. We get used to disappointment. Change your mindset. You lack nothing. Ask. Seek. Receive. You are complete. You have more than enough. You operate out of your overflow. You are full.

Whole

"Wholeness does not mean perfection: it means embracing brokenness as an integral part of life." -  Parker J. Palmer

I don't think we truly appreciate our wholeness until we are broken. We don't appreciate our health until it fades. We don't appreciate the goodness of today until we encounter the challenges of tomorrow. We don't appreciate what we have until it's gone. Why can't we live in the now? Why can't we have an attitude of gratitude? Why do we spend so much time looking for our next that we don't relish in the present? Today is a blessing. Today is all we have. Tomorrow is not guaranteed. Just be and enjoy being. 

"You don't need another person, place or thing to make you whole. God already did that. Your job is to know it." - Maya Angelou
