Daily quote from Abraham: “The standard of success in life isn’t the things. It isn’t the money or the stuff-it is absolutely the amount of joy you feel.”
It is our job to allow the joy. It becomes a moment to moment practice to become conscious of how we most often make the choice for not joy!
It is usually perceived as somewhat of a challenge to choose joy since our attachment to an identity of being inherently joyless for all the so-many-good-reasons
is very much in place.
Well, this “old friend” will have to bite the dust!!!

While vacationing in Nova Scotia we had a lovely meal in a seaside restaurant. Our waitress was an adorable young woman with superb serving skills. When the meal was over she brought the check. I wanted to leave a good tip to signal my delight with her service and….I wanted to include a Tiny Pink Baby to top-off my delight. So, there on the table, on top of the check and the cash I placed a tiny Pink Baby. I love whimsy!
As I stood up to put on my coat and headed for the door the waitress came running after me. She was very excited. “Madam,” she called after me, “Madam…wait, please…how did you know?…how did you know?”, she continued, ” we have been trying to have a baby for 2 years with no success and now I know it will happen…it’s a sign…thank you, thank you!”
I have wondered often whether she ever did get pregnant?
