Just for Today

I love the five principles of Reiki…think you will enjoy them as well.
Just for today:
I will not be angry
I will not worry
I will be grateful
I will work hard
I will be kind to all living things
Although these points are enough to change my life, Bertha…being Bertha…points out that the principles can be changed to whatever I need them to be. The life-changing part is “just for today”.
So when I look at my life of late it becomes:
Just for today I will do 30 minutes of yoga after work
Just for today I will write a blog
Just for today I will practice Reiki for 10 minutes
Just for today I will not eat ice cream
Okay…in the words of Meatloaf…two out of three ain’t bad.
I love that I that I don’t have to concern myself with tomorrow…it’s only for today and today feels just right.
