Day 185.
Here’s my list of the top 11 things I can create from that I already have:
11. Voice
10. Vision
9. Hearing
8. Hands
7. Legs
6. Brain
5. Imagination
4. Spirit
3. Love
2. Breath
1. Freedom
If you can talk—you have your voice.
If you can read this—you have your eyes.
If you can listen—you have your ears.
If you can write—you have your hands.
If you can walk—you have your legs.
If you can think—you have your brain.
If you can dream—you have your imagination.
If you can believe—you have your spirit.
If you can feel—you have your love.
If you can breathe—you are alive.
If you live in a democracy—you have your freedom.
Freedom is #1 to me because without it, you’re not free to create from the other 10. If you have all of these things, consider yourself lucky. I know I do. And I plan to get creative with all of it, especially my freedom.
Until tomorrow, create from what you have…because you’re free to.
Kelli, this post is so inspirational! We need to give thanks for what we have rather than focusing on what we want (or think we need!). Well done!
Thank you so much for the kind words and for sharing your lovely comment! Oh, the “think we need” energy is especially a slippery slope, isn’t it?!? It can stop us in our creative tracks if we let it. 🙂
