Some of you wrote after last week: “I want wonder in my life now, I want to exist in a state of love now. I don’t want to wait until I die.”
Practice assiduously. A spiritual practice is like any other practice, the more you do it, the better you get.
Practice every day. Tape a note to your computer. Set the alarm clock on your phone. Tie a string around your finger!! Do something to remind yourself to practice appreciation and to emanate love. Practice every day, for a least a little part of the day.
Give yourself this opportunity: Practice appreciation every day from now until May Day. Emanate love every day from now until May Day. Then write to me and tell me how you’re doing.
It occurs to me that May Day is International Workers Day. I don’t know about you, but I can get a bit freaked out by these attempts to bust unions and by all the talk about dismantling medicare and social security. Practicing appreciation and emanating love are excellent antidotes to fear and anxiety. Let me know how it goes.
