Raindrops on roses ...

Remember the song from the movie 'Sound of Music'? Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens; bright copper kettles and warm woollen mittens; brown paper packages tied up with string; these are a few of my favorite things -- so sang Maria in the film. The song started in my head when I was sitting with my almost four-month old grand-daughter in my arms -- watching her smile, coo and gurgle, and finding my heart opening up just to watch her ... the freshness and purity of a baby's face and eyes can give such a lift to our hearts! As the song sprang into my head I started thinking that I hadn't done this exercise, of listing my favorite things, in a long time. Since I completely believe what we have in our lives is a reflection of our prevailing emotions, I have decided to sit down and make this list, again - having done it the last time a couple years ago. So, who wants to join me? What are things that bring joy into your heart? - because, that's what our favorite things do -- they bring us joy.

And this below, is the quote for the day from the Abraham-Hicks website:

Let your alignment (with Well-Being) be first and foremost, and let everything else be secondary. And not only will you have an eternally joyous journey, but everything you have ever imagined will flow effortlessly into your experience. There is nothing you cannot be or do or have — but your dominant intent is to be joyful. The doing and the having will come into alignment once you get that one down.
