Motivation Monday - Butterfly Summer Edition!

I have had a TON of butterfly sightings so far this summer! For me butterflies symbolize change, luck and sometimes a loved one who has passed away stopping by to say hello. Since I'm on the verge of a major change this year, I'm hoping all my recent sightings mean good luck is headed my way!

Wishing you a week filled with butterfly sightings and all the delights of summer!

What I am grateful for

 

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ Family -  I had a great Sunday afternoon yesterday celebrating my cousin and uncle's birthday, I got to see extended family I hadn't seen in a long while and it was a great reminder of all the things that are really important in life.

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Church - Late afternoon Sunday service yesterday after the family party at a church I hadn't been to in many years. The last time I was in that church was for a funeral. It was a bit bittersweet being back there. But it filled my spirit to spend time in prayer as I have quite a bit to be thankful for!

Ƹ̵̡Ӝ̵̨̄Ʒ - Blogging Opps - One of my blogging opps is taking me on quite an adventure this week and I will be sure to share more as soon as I can!

Motivation Monday: Signs of Spring, time to Bee Happy!

Monday Motivation/Todays Inspiration: The weather outside today was absolutely beautiful. I actually made it out to the local park, where I spotted several types of butterflies, and a super monstrous, huge, scary looking bumble bee! I woke up to birds chirping and decided that no matter what happened today, that it was a great day to just be happy for all the simple things that normally get taken for granted.

I don't fare well with Bee stings, I got bit on my knee once and it swelled up like a football! But I saw this big, fat happy bumble bee graphic and just couldn't help smiling.

I feel like a butterfly sighting always makes my day better. They usually portend change or a stroke of good luck for me. I'm way over due for positive changes and a stroke of good luck.

What's your Monday Motivation Butterfly?

Monday Motivation: Are you a radiator?

Today's Question: Are you a radiator? Do you give out heat and warmth?

Today's Challenge: You can be that person that everyone looks forward to seeing, you know the one, the one that has a smile for everyone. A smile that somehow lights up a room. The person that has kind words for everyone. The one who avoids all the latest gossip. The one who doesn't repeat it when they do hear it.

When you have that light within and share it with others, it comes back to you! Your day gets that much brighter. You meet the right people. Because they found themselves drawn to you. If being a radiator doesn't come naturally to you, you can develop it! Challenge yourself today to exude the warmth that you want to see come back to you. Smile at the grumpy clerk, make sure to thank someone who holds a door for you, even when you don't feel like it, give out warmth today and watch what comes back when you do. And much like your favorite shampoo, REPEAT, repeat...and repeat.

Todays Affirmation: I am radiating a warmth that is appreciated by all of those around me.

Happy Monday Butterfly!
