This is Marie T. Russell, co-publisher of InnerSelf.com, wishing you a day of expressing Peace and choosing Love (today and every day).

Comment from Marie:
I know I say this often, but it is so fundamental that it is important to repeat: we always have a choice. And our main choice is to choose to Be Peace and to Be Love. This doesn't mean it's always easy as our ego wants to be right and wants to prove to others they are wrong. But Peace and Love don't need to prove anything. They simply need to Be.

InnerSelf's Daily Inspiration

November 28, 2024


The focus for today is:

I use every opportunity to express peace rather than irritation,
and chose love over fear. 

Today's inspiration was written by Pierre Pradervand:

I bless this day in the fullness of good it already contains, in the many occasions it offers to listen deeply, to be of service to others, to express gratitude moment by moment and to keep my mind so filled with love, beauty and joy that no negativity can find even the tiniest crack in which to set foot.

I bless this day in the infinite opportunities it gives me to love: to love and bless every human I meet, every beast or bird I pass by, every plant I behold, for all are but the manifold expressions of the infinite Life that undergirds all.

Truly, I bless this day for the wonderful adventure it can become as I walk through it with the eyes of wonder rather than boredom, use every opportunity to express peace rather than irritation, and chose love over fear. Thank you, Life, for this day.
