I am grateful for compliments

What flatterers say, try to make true.  ~German Proverb

I do not write this to inflate my ego, I write this because I do believe in the Law of Attraction, and I want more of what I am going to write about this morning.

This week, at least four times, I have been told by friends that I either uplift them, or I am an inspiration to them.  The first thought that comes to my mind is of course self-doubt, and I immediately think, “Me?”

However, just as quickly as that thought enters my brain, I immediately replace it with one of gratitude, because the whole point of this adventure, is to learn to love myself, and until I can, and do, it will be that much harder to manifest some of the things I truly desire in my heart.

Do I want material things in life?  Sure.  There is nothing wrong with wanting toys, money, things that comfort the physical form.  But more importantly, I want my life to be blessed to the point that I can be a blessing to others, I want my life to overflow.  For me, my blessing comes, when I am able to give back to others, in whatever way possible, at this present moment.  Right now, I do so with my words, writing about trips to the bookstore, and the library, and that is of course just as important as donating money to a cause, because it is apparently having an impact on some people out there.

Not only are my words having an impact, but my actions as well.  Every day I go out into the world, and more than a few times each week I receive confirmation, whether it is from friends, co-workers, or complete strangers that they see something exciting inside me, and for that I am truly grateful.  I am too only human, and I too am in need every now and then for some inspiration, something to lift me up, and these compliments do just that.  They remind me that I am on the right track, they give me a strength to continue to go out and conquer things in my life that used to conquer me.

Thank you all for your wonderful compliments, you are all truly an inspiration to me.
