Today as part of my journey to my treasure I decided it was a good day to just read and learn. I have so many books that I have collected and they each make me happy in their own way. Today a read "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill. It was wonderful reading the words of someone from the 1930's who already had such insight. I also flipped through the pages of a book I've already read but am ready to read again which is called "The Four Spiritual Laws of Prosperity" written by Edwene Gaines. In the introduction her first sentence reads "My name is Edwene Gaines, and I am a woman of power." This is probably one of the most powerful openings to a book I have ever read. After reading that sentence I knew I was in for a ride. She goes on to say she wasn't always a woman of power..."Then I asked God to help me turn my life around. After I did, some of the things I felt called to do seemed a little crazy, but I did them anyway. As a result, my life has been completely transformed." Isn't that awesome?! I find this book so inspiring. It's a little book but it did make an impression on me.
I find when I read my books, I always come away with something. Even if it wasn't a book that was particularly exciting, there is usually something that will stick with me. I'll tell you, if it weren't for my books sometimes I wouldn't know what I would do. Take for instance the way I woke up in the morning. Wow I was moody! No idea why, I just was. So instead of taking it out on the innocent in the household I grabbed a book. They love my books too. Ha Ha.
Here's to lessons learned through books! I will keep reading and feeling that inspired, huge, swelling heart feeling I get when I'm about to embark on something new. Life is good!
God Bless you! I'm finding that it's definitely about taking it one day at a time. And one day, hopefully soon, I will reach The Treasure. ~Suzanne~
