Day 8: We Are Each Others Treasures

Hi,

This is Teresa Conte and welcome to Day 8 of 30 Days of Gratitude to Inspire and Uplift You.

Today,

I'd like to share a quote by Thornton Wilder.

He said,

We can only be said to be alive in those moments when our hearts are conscious of our treasures.

And now,

A thought to ponder.

We are each other's treasures.

Our thoughts and words can make a difference in someone's life when spoken with care and reverence.

Each word we speak and each deed we do can act like powerful medicine.

Take a moment to close your eyes and think of someone who's been there for you when you've needed support or a listening ear.

A friend,

Partner,

Or even an animal can help us feel cared about and encouraged.

What did they say or do to assist you?

How did their presence help you?

I'll be quiet for a moment while you let the image play out in your mind's eye.

Now imagine yourself being bathed in light that's healing and nurturing you.

Open to the warmth surrounding you,

Knowing you're safe and protected.

When you're ready,

Open your eyes,

Aware that you're loved and treasured.

What can you do or say to let someone you know you treasure them?

Bring them to mind,

Then give them a call or arrange to meet and let them know you value them.

You'll both benefit from the experience.

Wishing you a most wonderful day.
