TODAY'sQUOTES
"Every moment of your life is infinitely creative and the universe is endlessly bountiful. Just put forth a clear enough request, and everything your heart desires must come to you."
- Mahatma Gandhi, was the pre-eminent political and ideological leader of India during the Indian independence movement.
"A dream is your creative vision for your life in the future. You must break out of your current comfort zone and become comfortable with the unfamiliar and the unknown."
- Denis Waitley, best-selling author and motivational speaker.
"Get on with your own creative life. Ideas are free. They don't cost you a thing. You can live in the world of thought all the days of your life and never go broke.
You will also die unfulfilled, because an idea that never incarnates, that never becomes physical and grounded in this world, will eventually feel like the most painful burden you ever had to carry - one that you can never put down.
People who have had near death experiences report that there is indeed a life review that happens upon our death, and that a part of that life review is to make note of what could have been in our lives had we chose otherwise.
Falling into that category are all the creative opportunities the universe provided for us that we let fall by the wayside because our fears carried more authority within us than our faith.
Trust in the life support system that is inherent in your creative spirit. You will draw to yourself all that you need as you need it, but you must first be willing to risk it all."
- Caroline Myss, best-selling author & speaker.

I heard a quote this past weekend that truly touched me, it went something like this, "There's no such thing as a self-made person because everyone has had help along the way."
This hit me hard. It hit me so hard because for a long time one of my driving desires is to be self-made. And in many ways, TDL is a self-made creation, but it's not really.
There have been SO many people that have helped me directly or indirectly create TDL. Be it my parents, my friends, my mentors, my amazing L.A. friends who are now family that let me stay with them while I couch surfed for two years, all the way down to the people who built the email marketing software that allows me to send emails to a lot of people, or the creators of WordPress who allow me to have an amazing backend for the blog, or the hosting company, the designers and developers who created the site and most importantly - YOU.
Without YOU there would be no TDL. Because TDL is only as strong and real as the community of daily lovers who are a part of it.
There are literally thousands, if not hundreds of thousands, of people who have contributed to the success of TDL, most of whom I'll never meet.
I know in this world of quick fix, ambition seeking, value giving, purpose living, personal growing that it's easy to get caught up in the rat race and not see how amazing life is. No matter what the economy is doing or who is in office, life is getting better. We have so many amazing tools and possibilities now that didn't exist before ALL made possible because of someone else.
My practice today is to not try to create anything or make anything happen; my practice for today is to sit in awe of how amazing life is and how much my life has improved because of you and many, many others who have made it possible.
Sometimes, simply taking a moment to be grateful for what we have with nothing else added on is one of the most powerful practices that we could ever cultivate. Because when we are in a state of gratitude, we find more things to be grateful for and we tend to give the events of our lives a grateful meaning instead of perhaps a hateful meaning.
So, where and for whom in your life could you be grateful? What machines, technologies and other items do you use every day that you didn't have to build? How has your life been made better because of the efforts of another? Can you stop today and take notice? As always, the action happens over on the BLOG. Head on over there and leave a comment on my blog "This should put a smile on your face!" and join in the conversation! The TDL Community thrives in the comments and it's a GREAT place to get support!
Love,
