One Moment of Gratitude
How would YOU like to change the world daily with only One Moment of your time? It is really simple and easy to do, and I sincerely hope you will stop and take a moment each day which will help renew, restore and heal this beautiful planet on which we live our lives.
We live in a world where everything we eat, use and wear originates somewhere in Nature. The raw materials come from some material, animal, insect, some piece of Nature which literally creates the world around you every moment of your life, including the clothes you wear, the food you eat, the buildings you live in, the roads you drive on, the cars, computers and everything else. From the time we are born until we die, we are taking, taking, taking and seldom giving anything back in return.
If you Google Masaru Emoto you will find his many books about water and see his amazing photographs of water crystals. He found if you simply place a word on a piece of paper taped to a glass of water, its’ structure completely changes, regardless if it is a negative or positive word. The same is true of photographs and playing music. He proves that thoughts and words have more power than we might ever have imagined. This is incredible when you also note we are each physically made up of 75% water and our brains 85%. What you think every moment of the day literally affects your own physical body and others around you as you fling those thoughts around! It makes you stop and consider whether or not you want to be angry and judgmental today or not…smile? What are you doing to your own body with those thoughts you think?
An experiment occurred spontaneously in many homes across Japan in response to Mr. Emoto’s work. Japanese families put three jars of cooked rice by a door and when passing through the door, each family member would greet the jars of rice. One jar received loving statements. One jar received angry, mean, hateful statements. The third jar was totally ignored and not given any attention. Surprising to almost everyone, was the fact the Ignored Jar rotted much faster than the other two, even the jar being yelled at!! Evidently being ignored was worse than receiving no attention at all!
So HERE is where you come in!! Here is where YOU can make a difference every single day from this moment on. I am merely asking you to stop once a day (of course more if you wish), and Thank Mother Earth or Nature (however you phrase it is fine), for all the physical blessings in your life. Send Nature some Love and Gratitude daily, even for only One small moment of time. Remember each thought you think IS powerful!
I feel most people today live very busy lives and seldom stop to stay “thank you” to their own family members, their children, friends, and the planet on which they live. I personally thank the Creator and every particle of creation for all the millions of blessings in my life daily. I feel the planet is struggling because no one seems to care. It is like that ignored jar of rice! We take and take and take without even One Moment of Gratitude for all the things we have in our lives because of the endless blessings of Mother Earth and all her billions and billions of creatures and plants, animals, insects, microbes, bacteria all working tirelessly on our behalf, so to speak.
So THANK YOU in advance for taking One Moment each day just to say thank you and shower the planet with a little of your own love. I think if we all begin this simple, easy, effortless habit, things might shift in a big way soon!!
I am putting together a campaign which I will launch this fall to get more and more people involved. One thing I am giving away is a Free Book on Dolphin Wisdom. If you want to be included in that campaign notice and receive your free book, be sure and send me an email with One Moment of Gratitude in the subject line and I will include you in my announcement list when it begins!
Thanks again!! With Great Gratitude, Morgine
