InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

January 3, 2024


The focus for today is:

I make decisions that support my well-being and innate joy.

Today's inspiration was written by Marie T. Russell:

The 'Choose Life's Colours' card in The Life Navigator Deck reads: "You can either paint a dark picture of life -- or choose a brighter, happier palette. The brilliant hues of joy, gratitude and love will turn your life into a glowing work of art."

While we may sometimes get caught up in "poor me" attitudes and think we have no control over anything that happens to us, the truth is quite a different matter. We always have a choice. And we always do choose -- even when our choice is "no choice", which of course is a choice in itself.

If your day is dreary, sing a happy song, or watch some funny videos, or play with a child or a pet, to help you change the lens you are seeing through. Once we realize that our energy is dependent on the choices we make, it makes it easier to make those decisions that support our well-being and our innate joy.
