Thursday 9/30/10 - "STRETCH" - Theme Thursday




THEME THURSDAY
(Stretch)


"STRETCH"

My muscles sing in harmony when I gently stretch them. It relieves the tension built up within the fibers. I can visualize the bunched up muscles relaxing and smoothing out. They are happy and grateful I have taken the time to stretch them one by one.

Today I challenged my mind by reading and listening to information that was new to me. It required me to keep an open mind, formulate questions, concentrate on the answers and stretch my understanding. When I use my brain in this way my consciousness expands. It feels good.

I sit at this computer searching for inspiration for a blog. Every time I write a poem, a story, just my thoughts or string pictures together, I am stretching my creativity.

My soul sings when I take the time to stretch my spiritual muscles. Reading and reflecting on spiritual material opens the channel between myself and my Higher Power. Sitting in silence as I reflect and allowing my thoughts to flow as I journal strengthens my connection with God. The result is a sense of peace, well-being and a knowing that all is well.

Hurray! Hurray! Hurray for stretching!

GOOD stretch! I'm grateful that you are here, writing these things that also reflect new ideas to me, that stretch me and help me to expand!

You are a blessing and an encouragement always!

Beautiful! I think of how fully cats get into their stretches and take a cue from them. Body, mind, spirit -- stretching is good for the soul.
