footnotes on the path of life~~

so much goes on in a moment....
when i stop & am still ~~all that occurs in those moments of just being
& if i consider others moments....
yes there is much that takes place....
it's a big story... really...
all the goings on.... it's kinda exciting to ponder....
i was being thoughtful.... thinking of politeness.....
i was brought up to be polite.... to 'mind my manners' 
& altho i was at times, a most defiant child....
i was polite... & did my best to be kind....
even when i did no always want to .... i was kind & polite
i have realized thru the years of my life & my journey,the act of being kind, being polite.... being gratefull & thankfull takes you to good places & good spaces.... opens up doors...
now please  know/realize i am speaking of genuine sincere... gratitude & thankfullness!!!     
have you ever taken the time to thank Mother Earth, to thank nature, to thank the sun & moon & stars.... the trees & the water & the air....
oh my goodness>>>>> yes to thank the air...
to give thanks for your homespace, & food.... thankfullness & gratitude come full circle to bestow beautiful blessings & gifts, that arrive at unexpected surprizing moments along the path of our lives.... in the midst of the journey... these surprize packages arrive & it they are often so subtle... or perhaps just the opposite...so real & so in your face & you wonder why..... well it is the returning of the politeness, the gratitude that was expressed by you at one time, coming back to you full circle....
so open hearted kindness, politeness, gratitude.... thankfullness for gifts received... & even gifts shared with others... when given with sincerity & genuine thoughtfull consideration.....will return to us in beautiful ways....
& when we take time to bless all that is around us, to be thankful for the air we breathe & the water that nurtures us on so many levels...
we will be blessed in return by all that is around us.... the free flow of love...
the free flow of honor & respect.... 
on a consistent basis....
to bring this back to our day to day lives.... in a very real kinda way!!!
so today i am being polite to my homespace, i am gratefull for my homespace, for keeping me safe & warm..... i am being polite & thanking the air, & the frost i see on my earthspace.....
  & i was polite & gratefull to the water as i began brewing my kombucha this morning....
seeing it filled with love that will in turn nurture my body when i drink it.....
so~~~~~~~
politeness
gratitude...
thankfullness
open heart kindness & love
honor
respect....
tools & skills to carry with you & to hone into perfection....
bring them into your daily dance of life.... bring them with you as you journey your path..... they are easily renewed they are easily carried they are easily shared.... & will bless you in ways far beyond your knowing~~

brightest blessings warmest loving hugs~~ earthdeva/molly
