"Health is the greatest possession. Contentment is the greatest treasure. Confidence is the greatest friend. Non being is the greatest joy." Lao Tzu
-----------------------------------
In today's world it's easy to get caught up in all the stress and pressures that are forced on us. We strive to gain too many material possessions, we complain too much about not having enough, we share too much in order to prove something, we look to others for validation, and we take the crucial gifts of life for granted.
-----------------------------------
The aim is to be self fulfilling, content, and honest with your self. The goal is to embrace your blessings in order to help others who have none. The journey is what teaches us to be genuine creatures that practice self love and loving others.
-----------------------------------
Take a few minutes today to sit with your self. No noise, no distractions, just you. Think about what makes you happy, think about how you can share that happiness and find your purpose on this earth. List the ways that you can preserve your mind and body in order to fully utilize and take advantage of them to do good for yourself and others. How can you cherish your body? How can you nourish your mind? How can you maintain a calm within yourself in order to remain stable and grounded? It could be reading, yoga, meditation, a specific diet, holistic supplements, a massage every now and then. The possibilities are endless. 🙏🏻
