Introduction & Quote of the Day featuring May Sarton

Quote of the Day:

Help us to be the always hopeful
gardeners of the spirit
Who know that without darkness
Nothing comes to birth
As without light
Nothing flowers.

Today’s Practice: Focusing Your Thoughts

Each day provides the opportunity to begin anew on a pathway to modeling hope and optimism for and with others. Hope and optimism start within and move outward.

Make it a daily practice to focus your thoughts on someone in your life (adult or child) who might be feeling isolated and alone. Connect with that person in positive and nurturing ways, letting them know that there is someone sending them positive thoughts.
