Happy Wednesday my fellow wishcasters. It's wish day at Jamie Ridler's Studio.
Today's wish prompt is, What do you wish to give? Sounds simple enough, giving should be easy, right? Just like anything else in life even something as simple as this brings up anxieties, uncertainties and whatever other "stuff" we carry around, like: who should we give to, are we giving enough, will the recipient like what I have to give, see sounded easy but my monkey mind gets in the way and I start to over-analyze just like with everything else I do.
So excuse me monkey mind but get out of my way please and let the answer flow.....
What I wish to give is my unconditional love and support to those who are in my life or touch my life, if I know them personally or not. I know this is a big wish and it may take me awhile to get around my "stuff" to accomplish this one, especially the unconditional part I think alot of people don't consciously have expectations when giving, but it happens, we are human. In the meantime I can take whatever steps in giving of myself that I can do in each moment as it comes.
Some things I can give now are:
1. A smile to friends and strangers alike.
2. Time, to spend with friends and family, to share with them their stories and mine, to just BE present with them.
3. Charity where I can in the form of giving away things especially since I feel sometimes overwhelmed with stuff, especially clothes that I know I will never wear again, maybe someone else can use some of it.
4. Prayers/Reiki/Support where needed or blessings of joy to share in celebration.
5. To give myself and others a break, knowing no one is perfect.
There is so much to give I can list them one by one but these are a broad range and I think it gets the idea across. I feel like I am having a hard time expressing myself so I hope this post make sense to you today.
So my fellow wishcasters what would you like to give?
Namaste,
Karen
