Share Yourself with the World
Love Has Not Forgotten You Today
Healing is a daily journey. If you have experienced dark places in your life, you know how challenging it can be to try to climb out of these holes. And after you’ve been there, you know how hard it is to feel love, receive love, and give love again….not only involving loving others, but most importantly involving loving yourself.
Because you are alive, and living be kind to yourself and bless yourself with these gifts:
Be ever so gentle with yourself today. Be kind to yourself and say, “It’s okay to cry. It’s okay to feel, even when feeling hurts. I can breathe. I am alive. I’m real. I am enough right now in this very moment. I am me. I am a gift unto the world. My life matters! And what I feel matters. And, now I’m just going to be, right here, right now, in this very moment.” -Bella Bleue
*Love/Light will always find you and carry you out of your darkness, if you allow yourself to be found. Love/Light is always there waiting for you even when you aren’t ready to see it or know it, but the moment you do want to know it, Love/Light is there to embrace you.

*Love/light in this context may evoke different names or meanings to you. Fill in the sentences with whatever word/name speaks to you!
Filled with Gratitude: Healthy Healing
When you say thank you, and allow yourself to be filled with gratitude, it changes your state of mind, and your worldly out-look is suddenly filled with a positive perspective. –Bella Bleue
- Your body feels this positive change as well. Even the cells in your body become energized to work towards healing, and health in a more rapid focused manner.
- You see the world as a more welcoming place, filled with acceptance and motivation.
- You become healthier each time you allow yourself to feel this gratitude. . You look and see a healthier person in the mirror.
- Your gratitude and energy surges into the relationships you have, and they too change for the better—they are healthier, more full-filling, more energized, more satisfying, more complete.
- Your moments of living become gems instead of obstacles.
- Your Life becomes a GIFT.
Take the time to feel gratitude, and see the powerful change that happens within you!

Hear Me Long Enough to Listen
One of the greatest ways to connect to another person is to give him/her the gift of your listening ear. Every single one of us wants to be heard. We want our words to mean something to someone else, because the words we speak come from within our being. Just as you long for attention from another person, someone else longs for your attention. During my years as a chaplain, I discovered that listening, usually without saying a word, to someone’s story was most often the greatest healing gift I could offer.
When you feel listened to you are empowered to trust more deeply in the wonderful, amazing, incredible, fabulous, unique, (& so much more) person you are! -Bella Bleue
I invite you:
- To make an extra special effort to really listen to someone you care about.
- After you walk away from this experience take some time to reflect on what you learned about this person that you hadn’t noticed before AND
- Reflect on what it was like to be so fully present for another.
- If you are the one who needs to be listened to: Ask that the other person to listen
It’s amazing how when we “Hear Someone Long Enough to Listen” we are giving an incredible gift, and at the same time receiving so much in return.
