Willingness
This week’s theme explores the power of action as part of our healing journey. It begs the question, are we willing to take some form of action to improve our lives? Or as Melody Beattie ask: are we willing to at least be willing?
And baby steps count! For instance, walking down the block and back is way better than if we sat on our bum over that same period of time. Writing one paragraph…even one sentence…in our journal is progress over not writing anything at all. Practicing the piano for 10 minutes, especially if we do it each day, can dramatically improve our playing … which is certainly better than not practicing at all
How about you? Are you willing to try to make a change for the better? Are you willing to take one baby step…just for today?
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:


Peace & Blessings,

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.
