Nurturing Others
This week we focus on the concept of Self Nurturing. Today’s MotD encourages us to nurture others whenever we can and in whatever way we can. Surprisingly, or maybe not surprisingly, when we nurture others, we nurture and uplift both of ourselves in the process.
It could be something as simple as taking a few extra seconds to hold a door open for someone, or offering a genuine compliment or smile, or listening to someone talk about how they are going through a rough time.
It’s mainly about acknowledging and honoring the existence of another person; that they matter. After all, isn’t that what we all want: to know that we matter and that we’re all worthy of nurturing and caring? Yes…yes, it is.
I know for me, it feels so good that it makes me want to do more of it. It reminds me of the closing scene of Bill Murray’s movie “Scrooged” where he finally “gets it”.
How about you? Have you noticed how you feel when you’ve had the opportunity to nurture someone else?
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.
