As I was reading a book,
the author's wonderful words struck me, big time.
She calls them "Word Gifts."

They are a set of positive words that make a difference not only in our own lives but also in the lives of others.
The words mentioned are
DANCE
Whenever, wherever you get the chance...
Free yourself.. lose yourself
like dance while prepping yourself, cooking your food, washing dishes, etc..
KISS
this may not come automatically
it will be awkward at first
do it anyway until you become comfortable
you'll get a very surprising reward after. :)
LAUGH
it's pretty hard to accomplish when you're in deep shit
but try to stretch your facial muscles
a little stretch doesn't hurt at all
and the feeling will be greater than expected. ;)
HOPE
another word that's hard to put into practice..
but do it anyway..
try looking at the bright side
don't kill that "hope" that God placed in your heart
remember, it was placed there for a reason.. :)
don't ever give up.. :)
JOY
and because you've allowed the previous words inside you,
joy now has a place :)
you'll be living a life now that's fun and full of wonderful colors.
and finally
BE WELL... ALWAYS!!
Cool, isn't it?
Yeah, I know you'll tell me that it's easier said than done.
But who knows, once you start practicing it, you'll end up being well for the rest of your life.
Remember baby steps
can bring you to your goals.
Practice now, practice more and before you know it, you're living by them.
Hakuna Matata!! :)
