Self Honesty
As we take stock of ourselves, we’re encouraged to be honest in our appraisals. What do we like about ourselves? What could use some improvement? What, if anything, is buried deeply within that we’re ready, willing, and able to allow to rise up to the surface? How truthfully we answer questions like these, will determine how well we heal and how quickly we move forward.
More than likely it’ll be much easier to come up with the things the need improvement upon. We might struggle a little bit with the things we like about ourselves. The most challenging to reveal, though, will be those things we’ve hidden away, consciously or unconsciously.
Meditation, coloring mandalas, journaling, treks in nature are all actions we can take to help us unlock that which is wanting to stay hidden. We just have to love and convince that part of ourselves, that doing this work serves all parts of ourselves for the better.
How about you? Are you able to be honest with and about yourself?
BTW…Here’s the before…the front and back view of today’s puzzle piece and the pretty ceramic box that holds all my numbers from which I randomly choose each day’s puzzle piece number:

ABOUT THE 2025 Mandalas of the Day
Throughout the year, I’ll be building one large (48”x48”) Tibetan-styled Mandala one piece at a time…one puzzle piece at a time, that is. The mandala design and the reversed puzzle side were printed on artist-quality watercolor paper. The forward facing puzzle side was printed on a 48”x48” wood panel.
Each day, at random, I’ll be painting in watercolors one of the 365 watercolor puzzle pieces, that by the end of the year will become Archangel Mandala #4. Read more about the Archangel Series. The word/message for each piece will be inspired by Melody Beattie’s book “52 Weeks of Conscious Contact”.
Ultimately, the message of this mandala is about how we are all uniquely part of the one.
