Description
Today is a day for setting a new goal... for setting a goal that will change how we perceive our world and life. Today we shall make the promise to be kinder and gentler to ourselves. This is an attainable goal and worth setting. Of all the animals on our planet earth, man has the most capacities. We have the capacity to think and reason things out. We have the capacity to speak our thoughts and paint pictures with our words. We have the capacity to feel passion and compassion for others. But sometimes along the way, while helping others, we forget that there is one person who needs our passion and compassion just as much as those who come into our life experience. Sometimes... just sometimes... we tend to forget that those kind and generous acts that we give so freely to others must also be given to ourselves. So today... just for today... let us do a random act of kindness for ourselves. Let us start this day with the truth of our beingness. Let us acknowledge to ourselves that we are wonderful... that we are capable of being all that we are. Before we can be kind to another, we must first be kind to ourselves. Before we can love another, we must first love ourselves. We can reach our goal in many ways. One way is to set boundaries for ourselves. If we are working on something, we can set a boundary for when we will stop and rest. We surely would tell our friends to stop when they are tired. So let us set a boundary for when we will tell ourselves to stop and continue another day or time. Our job in setting this goal is to tell ourselves that we will recognize when we have hit our limit or reached our wall of productivity. It will be at that point that we will consciously recognize that it is time to stop and continue our project another time. As we gradually set boundaries for ourselves, those people in our experience will also recognize our boundaries without a word from us. It is truly amazing how being kinder and gentler to ourselves will change how we perceive our world and ourselves.
Our thought for the day is: 'A dry stick breaks easily. A wet stick bends. What kind of stick are you?' Gayle O
May this day find you full of good cheer... may this day fill you with light and love... may this day bring you happiness... and may this day forever expand your soul.

This is a single flame created in Apophysis 3D Hack 2.08. The seed script for this flame was the spherical loonie foci scripts by parrotdolphin at Deviant Art. There were some tweaks by me. Post work was done in PSP. You can find the script here: http://parrotdolphin.deviantart.com/art/Spherical-Loonie-Foci-Scripts-113107025

I guess, I am a half dry stick. Trying to take care of too many and too much. But... there's that word... someone has to do it. And right now that someone is me. I love the picture you have created. I do take time for myself here! I enjoy creating art and viewing it. And reading comments!

Amazing piece and lovely words. I'm medium-dry I guess.

Sometimes I am rigid. Sometimes flexible. And I am not as gentle with myself as I need to be. Last night a torrential cry wet my stick to the core, and it helped. This is what your image reminds me of, sticks among a sea of tears. CC
