Marie T. Russell's Daily Inspiration

The focus for today is:  Love is the key to discovering my true self.

The things we love to do or enjoy doing, these things are the ones that are part of our life path. Some people use the expression: "It makes my heart sing." When your heart is happy, joyful, and full of love, you are on your own unique path. If you are sad, depressed, or feeling lonely for extended periods of time, then you've stepped off your true path. It's that simple.

Love, joy, inner peace... these are the indications that you are at the right place at the right time... with the right attitude. If you are grumpy, angry, stressed, etc., those energies are more a sign of being stuck, usually in some attitude, emotion or memory. 

So to discover if you're on your true path, ask yourself: "Do I love what I'm doing? Am I at peace with who I am right now? Do I find joy in where I'm headed?" If your answer to any of these questions is no, then an attitude adjustment or a change in direction is called for. If your answer is yes, then keep on keepin' on, and let your joy and your love shine.

EDITOR'S NOTE:

The Daily Inspiration has resumed, after a month of vacation. I am happy to be back in your inbox and on your screens to bring you insights and inspiration from my InnerSelf to your inner self. As always, InnerSelf brings you information and insights that enhance your experience of life and help you create a better life for yourself and for the world at large. 

ABOUT THE NEW CONCEPT FOR THE DAILY INSPIRATION:

This week we are introducing a new concept for the Daily Inspiration. Each week, I will write a short article to be used at the source of Monday's Daily Inspiration (usually emailed out the evening before - Eastern Time). On each day of that week, I will add to the "theme" of the article. The "new episode" each day will be written both as an addition to the article, and as the source for the Daily Inspiration for that day. At the end of the week, the article will be complete and featured in its entirety in Sunday's InnerSelf Magazine, along with an audio and video of the complete article. As a Daily Inspiration subscriber, you not only get the inspiration each day, but you also get an advance read on an article as it develops.

This is a bit of an experiment, so we may adjust the concept as we go along.  And of course, we welcome your comments and suggestions by using the Contact Us form on the "This and That" drop down menu above.

Wishing you a joy-full and loving day!
