Cup of Gratitude

Morning Meditation

The artist has a morning tradition: a cup of tea every morning in her favorite mug. When she’s drinking that first cup of tea, she is calm and focused. Have you ever thought of your morning coffee or tea as a meditation? Try using it as a daily gratitude practice. Every morning, devote that morning cup to something, or someone, that you are thankful for. It may make a bigger difference than you might expect!

You May Have a Fresh Start

"If you have mistakes, and even serious mistakes, there is always always another chance for you. And supposing you have tried and failed again and again, you may have a fresh start any moment you choose, for this thing that we call 'failure' is not the falling down, but the staying down." [Mary Pickford]
