Wednesday, July 22, 2009 - Today's Words of Inspiration and TWO giveaways!




HAPPY 100 for Ascending Butterfly!

Thanks to each and every one of you, today Ascending Butterfly reached the 100 follower mark! Thank You! It fills me with gratitude to know that there are so many others out there who share in our mission. Yes, that's right, this blog has a mission. Our Mission Statement is to 'seek and share the best sources of inspiration both on and off the web'. That is how this blog began. It wasn't easy to find sources of inspiration out there. Information yes, but inspiration, not always as easy. I wanted to read something that went beyond quotes. Inspirational quotes are great, but after you read them, then what? I wanted guidance, gratitude, inspiration and couldn't find it in the format that I wanted, so I created it. A sort of 'be the change you wish to see in the world' sort of thing but with inspiration.


Somehow I knew if I wanted to see it, so did other people! And today reminded me that I was right! In under two months 100 inspiration seekers found the way here, and we hope to welcome 100 more and 100 more and so on.


I'd love to open up today's words of inspiration to comments and suggestions! How are we doing? What do you want to see more of? less of?


There are a few new features coming soon, but we didn't want to introduce too many new things all at once. The next new feature will launch in August! It will be Ascending Butterfly's Book Club! 'What Ascending Butterfly is Reading' will feature one book a month, readers will of course have a chance to win the book, and the thread will be open to discussion and questions by those that are reading it or have already read it. We already have the first book lined up, but are always open to suggestions. And if any authors out there wish to be featured, we'd love to hear from you!


Use 'Today's Words of Inspiration' as a breathing meditation to still your mind, quiet your thoughts and bring in positive energy. As you inhale bring in only positive energy by saying in your mind, I breathe in positive energy (or you can say creative energy if that is what you wish to create more of) and as you exhale, Affirm out loud today 'I move closer to realizing my personal mission statement today.'


Visualize yourself manifesting something unique, guided by universal forces that emerge spontaneously from within your soul. Do this at least twice today and see how by taking a moment away from the hectic pace and breathing in positive energy and affirming what you wish to create, your thinking will become different!
