The Best Presents

Happy Wednesday Friends!

I hope you are enjoying this holiday season! On today’s ‘Wednesday Walk with Chants’, I share how I’ve become present to the fact that the best presents in life don’t have to cost money. Yesterday was Christmas, and many of us spent time giving and receiving many material gifts that we had to shop and pay for. Though these gestures are very kind, thoughtful and appropriate, sometimes we forget that the gifts that mean the most are the gifts of love, presence, friendship … which don’t cost a thing! This is what my holiday was full of, and I know, even these are gifts worth thanking for. So when you are thinking of giving thanks for all the presents you received, remember to say thank you for the Love.


 
I’d love to hear from you … have you received gifts that didn’t cost money that touched you deeply ~ like the wonderful gift of friendship? Or what about peace? Please leave a comment on the blog so we can all learn from you!

Wishing you a wonderful holiday season with your friends, family and loved ones!

All love,

We are One!

Happy Wednesday Friends!

On today’s ‘Wednesday Walk with Chants’, I share how the tragedy in Newtown, Connecticut affirmed my awareness that we are all one. Everyone I have talked to ~ regardless of who they are, where they live and what they do ~ we have all been equally affected deeply by this. It is in times of great suffering that we can most realize that there is no separation between you and me. We share one human heart beat, and our compassion to each other is how we will blur the lines of separation.



I’d love to hear from you … how have you seen people coming together to get through a tragedy? Please leave a comment on the blog so we can all learn from you!
My deepest love is being sent out daily to those directly and indirectly effected by the incidents at Sandy Hook Elementary school. My heart beats for you.

All love,
jodi

On today’s ‘Wednesday Walk with Chants’, I share some beautiful advice that my parents gifted me with. This past weekend, my parents celebrated a huge occasion … their 49th wedding anniversary!

I asked both my mom & my dad for their ‘Top Tip’ for a successful relationship and they both said “communication!” Check out my ‘Wednesday Walk with Chants’ to learn the other two valuable pearls of wisdom that they offered.
